Soooo....About That Recovery And The Reporting Of It

Thanks to this tweet from an intrepid Missouri dude, I decided to look for myself at the recovery.gov site to see if, indeed, jobs were being saved in a Congressional District that didn't exist.

Well, lookie here. Sure enough, the O-bots are claiming that five jobs were saved in the 14th MO Congressional District. Only problem? Missouri only has nine Congressional Districts.

Uh Oh!

Now, I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt to the O-Folks and assert that maybe the five jobs saved/created/whatever came from the 14th State Congressional District. But that is dubious, since the chart also lists the "00 Congressional District" and a few other oddly numbered ones, but not every State House District. And no "00" District exists for the State House.

Double Uh Oh!

Without sounding too conspiracy minded, something tells me that something fishy may be going on with the recovery claims. Or the O-Bots will simply claim this was a misprint. Either way, "Sheriff" Biden needs to look into this.

****UPDATE**** I did a scrrencap.

1 Fishy, eh?This sounds like something that you should report to the White House. Too bad they closed their tip line.

2 Those extra congressional districts are part of the other seven states. Quit being racist.

3 So where did the near $800k go that supposedly saved/created jobs in the fictional districts?
I'm guessing administrative costs, because it takes a lot of time to invent congressional employees, not to mention whole districts.

5 So who do you think will cover this the way it deserves?

I figure Beck and O'Reilly and.....uuhhhhhhhhh......

So is it stupidity, just making stuff up without reality?
Or is it worse, did they make them up to "launder" their donations to Acorn and the SEIU?

I'm going with "Yes".
