Jay Carney And White House Budget Office On Different Pages
Topics: Political News and commentariesJay Carney is promising that the president's latest and greatest Keynesian plan will lower unemployment from 9.1% to 8.9% or lower (at the very least - under 9%), while at the same time the White House Budget Office has put out a report saying what other sources are saying - that near-term unemployment is expected to remain significantly higher than expected, averaging 9 percent in fiscal year 2012.
Is Carney not privy to the WH Budget Office report? Sure, not much of a difference here, but it in the interest of being factual, it seems clear that Carney's doing a bit of dishonest spinning to put a rosier face on a dismal outlook for the American economy.
