What, Ben Stein is busy?

“The administration committed from the start to be upfront with the American people about the impact of the Recovery Act. Overall, the recipients provided good information on the impact of the Recovery Act across the country,” Rob Nabors, deputy director at OMB, told ABC News Monday. “The test that we used when examining the data for accuracy was, ‘Is that reasonable?’ When the answer was no, we acted accordingly.”

Sure you’re not actually Farris posting as Dennis?

Which was, BTW, to remove data that was unrealistic and thereby LOWER the estimates of job growth. That is, over there Obama’s administration provided more accurate info even though it was less supporting of their cause.

Meanwhile, over here, Dennis avoids any comment on whether the Chamber of Commerce is trying to cook the books.

ABC News Exclusive: Obama Admin Slashed 60,000 Jobs From Recent Stimulus Report

he Obama administration, under fire for inflating job growth from the $787 billion stimulus plan, slashed over 60,000 jobs from its most recent report on the program because the reporting outlets had submitted “unrealistic data,” according to a document obtained by ABC News.

The Office of Management and Budget document shows that before an Oct. 30 progress report on the program the administration asked the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board to remove information from 12 stimulus recipients that contained “unrealistic data,” including “unrealistic job data.” (Read the document here.)

One recipient – Talladega County of Alabama – claimed that 5,000 jobs had been saved or created from only $42,000 in stimulus funds.

Hope and Change.

And Transparency.

The Truth Gone Rogue.
