Some have said that the stimulus hasn't saved any jobs, but here is a case where at least one job was saved. Oregon State University Athletic Director Bob DeCarolis was considering firing their basketball coach, Craig Robinson, after an 8-11 start (2-5 in the Pac 10 conference).
When word of this reached Washington , Undersecretary of Education Martha Kanter was
dispatched to Corvallis with $17 million in stimulus money for the university. Craig Robinson's job is safe for this year. For those of you unfamiliar with Coach Robinson, he just so happens to be Michelle Obama's brother. Just a coincidence I'm
sure!

If anyone thought Obama cares what the American people think....this should clear that point up without question.

ReplyDeleteSmall world, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteDon't you love how the unspent stimulus money, TAXPAYER MONEY, has become the Democrats private slush fund? Look for most of it to be spent getting Democrats re-elected in November.
