Obama touts 10,000th stimulus project By Eric Zimmermann - 06/18/10 12:07 PM ET President Barack Obama on Friday highlighted the 10,000th project funded by stimulus dollars.
In remarks near a children's hospital in Columbus, Ohio, Obama argued that the stimulus had put the economy on the road to recovery.
"When I was here last, America was losing 700,000 jobs per month," Obama said. The economy is now "growing at a good clip" and has "added jobs for 6 out of the last 7 months."
The project in Columbus will use about $25 million to widen sidewalks and create new lanes on the streets near the hospital. The construction will reportedly create about 300 jobs.
Obama said the project was just one example of the need for infrastructure investment.
"While the recovery starts with projects like this, it can't end here," he said. "Rebuilding our infrastructure is one of the keys to our future prosperity. If we want to rebuild America's economy, we're got to rebuild America, period."
Is this from the onion
****ing LIAR! Fail... he is EPIC FAIL... but I am tired of the pos lying to us ALL! FUFUFUFUFUFUFUbo!
LLS
Obama needs to be impeached, tried for treason and sent to Gitmo to rot with his muslim buddies.
Yep, the only people who believe the economy is growing are the die hard (& quickly) Zer0 Kool-Aid Sippers.
...and nearly half of the Stimulus remains unspent....I call BS simply due to the FACT that Jack Squat will not and does not hesitate to continue to tell LIEZ!!!!! =.=
Keep in mind BO’s/BS’s idea of the economy is the federal government.
Coincidentally My small town just got new Obama side walks. They tore up perfectly good side walks and replaced them.
Does this idiot think he’s playing Sim City with cheat codes or something?
Obanana is either an economic idiot....or ???? You decide.
what is $25 million divided by 300 ???
“wider sidewalks”??
Next is he gonna jet up to the Mohegan Indian gambling casino that got $54 MILLION in stimulus money? That must be 600 jobs!
0bummer’s Unemployement Tour continues!
Think of all the construction workers counting on a healthy paycheck who lost a days work because of 0bamsters constant campaigning.
If George Bush was continually spouting delusional
nonsense like this ,
everyone from Couric and Williams and Matthews to the NYT and on and on would be openly wondering if Bush was mentally ill.
We actually have a president who admits to being a crack addict and pothead with no evidence of rehab ,
whose doctor has advised him to watch the booze ,
who ignores real crises and conjures up fake ones ,
who cannot speak without the crutch of a teleprompter,
who apparently lives in a fantasy world and indulges in an aberrant and pathological need for fun and games.
And the media continues to pretend he’s a normal, functioning adult.
