Ohh stop, you are now pretending that Obama's projections showed that unemployment would reach 10%? Really?
No, not really. Nobody's projections reached 10%, though Obama's did get to about 9.2%, which Republicans at the time said was an exaggeration and an example of his scare tactics. So that means...the numbers that you now claim were too low were first criticized by right-wingers as being too high. A reasonable person might conclude that right-wingers just complain about Obama stuff without any consideration of anything else at all.

Eh....obama's own words. Surely you've read the report they put out when selling the stimulus?
Yes, I read it the morning it came out, but I don't recall seeing the words "every claim about jobs in this report is outrageous and completely false." Maybe you could point to where I missed those.
No, delicate flower. You've lost track of the distinction between projections and predictions again. Poor thing.
It seems that no only do you provide comical humor over trying to spin the failure of the stimulus package, now your attempting to spin defintions of words.
Thats not what you said.. here, let me quote you..
So now they use the same data, the right wing media only assumed that 8% unemployment levels on the charts implied 8%, whereas you are claiming it meant whatever the hell it ends up at, and all of which came from charts which showed projections, that dont really include projections.
Right, we got it.. thanks for the humor..
Saggy is always good for a laugh. Facts are irrelevant to a good liberal, who embraces the "truth is relative" concept of Stalin.
No, not really. Nobody's projections reached 10%, though Obama's did get to about 9.2%,
where are these predictions, I mean projections at? Find me one source to backup the claim that Obama predicted 9.25% unemployment..
