How Many jobs Did the Stimulus Create or Save?

President Obama said that his stimulus bill would save or create close to 3,000,000 jobs. The Administration has already said that hundreds of thousands of jobs have been saved. However, the President's stimulus report card released this week tells another, more telling story. The number of jobs the President claims to have been saved has been grossly overestimated. Even CBS news couldn't resist to point out that the Administration's figures weren't "worth the paper they are written on."

And of the thousands of jobs promised to be created in Pennsylvania through the stimulus? Only 43 were created for the 9th district according to www.recovery.gov.
