Nancy Pelosi refuses to use the word "stimulus" to describe the president's "American Jobs Act." But when asked today to name significant differences between the Jobs Act and the 2009 stimulus package, Pelosi didn't identify any...
"Without the Recovery Act and accompanying federal interventions, whether from the Fed, or Cash for Clunkers, or other initiatives, the unemployment rate last year at the time of the election would have been fourteen and a half percent, not nine and a half percent," said Minority Leader Pelosi. ....

It’s 20% right now. That will never be reported by the MSM.
I call BS but hey, whatever happened to that promised “no higher than 8%,” PelosiIdiot?! =.=
If Zero and his lackeys didn’t control the statistics, the real actual unemployment rate would be 14.5 anyway. The 2009 stimulus didn’t create any PERMANENT jobs. Give aways to banks, failing clean energy companies, state bailouts, etc. but no NEW PERMANENT jobs.
The Unemployment Rate would have hit 25% without my buying a new car in 2009.
There, I can play this game too.
She’s being modest. It would have hit 110%. Obama saved us all. [/s]
Yea, yea, Pelosi...like we have to vote on it in order to be able to know what is in it.
Fact is, she's just continuing with her liberal/socialist/marxist mantra.
Did her face move at all when she pulled that out of her @ss?
Ms Pelosi,
It is a 100% certainty that 71.235% of all statistical references are made up.
I heard that spaz Dylan Ratigan actually say that number today. I almost blacked-out.
Nan Nan Nan it is truly over 20% now so make up a better lie next time....

Pelosi is the MINORITY leader. She should get her food stamps and go home.
There actually are some intellectually honest leftists. Ratigan and Schultz had a cage match on MSNBC earlier, and Fat Boy Ed was the usual loser.
That’s where I saw it. It was from the Drudge link.
Pelosi pulls whatever numbers she thinks sounds good out of her botox infused nether regions - she’s a habitual liar.
This is like that ridiculous “jobs saved” statistic.
Just pulled out of the ****ing air for idiots to hear and believe.
Pelosi is a piker. She doesn’t think big enough. She could have said unemployment would have reached 50% without the Stimulus. Then you could truly say the people that supported the bailout saved us from disaster.
Pelosi is like Gaddafi. He ran Libya but only made himself a colonel.
You have to dream big, Nancy. Go big or go home.
On second thought, just go home.
