Stupid Mistakes
Topics: Political News and commentariesThat's a Democrat's opinion on the the White House's phony numbers for those jobs "created or saved" it touts from a government-run website:
A powerful House Democrat used unusually harsh terms to blast the Obama administration's manipulation of stimulus data Monday night, and demanded an honest accounting of results from the $787 billion government program.The operative words here being "an honest accounting," something that the Obama administration's Chicago-style political operatives are simply incapable of.Rep. Dave Obey (D-Wis.), who chairs the House Appropriations Committee, took the administration to task for pervasive errors on the Web site designed to monitor disbursement of the stimulus funds. He called those errors "outrageous."
"Credibility counts in government and stupid mistakes like this undermine it. We've got too many serious problems in this country to let that happen," Obey said in a statement. "Whether the numbers are good news or bad news, I want the honest numbers and I want them now."
In other words, "stupid mistakes" or out right lying?
