Those problems raise questions about how accurate the administration is when it claims more than 640,000 jobs saved or created so far. Earl Daveny, chairman of the stimulus oversight board, told Congress this week he could not say for certain that the job total displayed by Recovery.gov and touted by the White House is accurate. And a government watchdog report to be released Thursday found 58,386 jobs that were created for projects that have yet to receive money. Ten The problem with this is a tad more obscure than the writer seems to recognize. The problem isn't mere "inaccuracy". Hell, mistakes happen, everyone knows that. The problem is that the mistakes all fall ONE direction -- toward OVERSTATING the benefits of the stimulus. Those aren't mistakes, they are intentional misstatements. They'll do anything to cover up for this sleazeball administration. Anything.
