THE STIMULUS AT WORK (DEMOCRATS TO THE RESCUE OF ONE JOB)

came in my email ^ | 10/25/2010 | web mail

[Mr. K]

THE STIMULUS AT WORK! Thank God, I was afraid it wouldn't work.

Some have said that the stimulus hasn't saved any jobs,

but here is a case where at least one job was saved.

Take for instance Oregon State University Athletic Director

Bob DeCarolis.

Now Mr. DeCarolis was considering firing their

Basketball Coach.......

Craig Robinson

after an

8 -11 start (2-5) in the Pac 10 conference).

When word reached Washington ,

Undersecretary of Education

Martha Kanter

was dispatched to Corvallis with $17 million

in stimulus money for the university.

Thankfully,Craig Robinson's job is

safe for another year

Now comes the interesting part of our story....

For those of you unfamiliar with

Coach Robinson,

he just so happens to be the brother in law

of none other than our country's

beloved President,

NOW YOUR CATCHING ON......

that's right he is the brother of

Michelle Obama!

But hey, can't we all come to the conclusion

that Coach Robinson's job security

was all just a coincidence?

I'm sure of it .... Aren't You?

Thank Goodness For The Stimulus!!!

But $17 million for one job? I wonder what mine is worth?

If this doesn't anger you, nothing will...

[Mr. K]

But remember - all democrats are saying they are going to "clean up government" and the media is so nice as to tell us how mean and evil republicans are this election so go vote this fall !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That’s how it’s done in Kenya, Chicago and Indonesia! Just sayin’!!

[Pearls Before Swine]

This can’t be true! If it is, #$@^#$!!!, I’m reaching for another BP pill. Also, it should be publicized to high heaven. The source is given as an email... I’ll do a little searching to see if I can find a better one.

[theDentist]

I wonder what his salary is?

[Pearls Before Swine]

For what its worth, Snopes.com claims it isn’t true, and there’s a bunch of other claims that it is an eRumor. Even if the money wasn’t dispensed directly for Robinson, it is a coincidence reminiscent of Michelle’s pay raise after her hospital landed some Barack directed grant money.

“This can’t be true!”

It is not. It is a discredited internet rumor.

[BJClinton]

This is bull$#!t. Sorry, no way this is true.

But hey, you read it on teh interwebz so it must be true, right?

[Mr. K]

Just like all the Paladino stuff from Fred U Dicker must be true

We are doomed !!!! DOOOOOOOOOMED I TELL YOU
