Wasserman Schultz: It’s Baloney to Say the Stimulus Didn’t Work
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, September 12, 2011, 12:03 PM
DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz told reporters today,
“The “mantra that the Recovery (stimulus) Act did not work is such baloney,”.”
It depends on what your definition of “work” is.
The stimulus worked so well that the Obama White House managed to triple the US deficit Obama’s first year in office… And, his second year in office… And, his third year in office.
The Obama deficit this year is expected to reach $1.29 trillion. (The Captain’s Comments)
The stimulus worked so well that the economy was downgraded. And, the stimulus worked so well that the economy created no jobs last month.
So, yes. In a way, the stimulus worked.

Doubling down on failure has always seemed to be Wasserman-Schultze’s strong suit.

Quadrupling down on stupid.

Ah isn’t that nice they sent out Debbie Wasn’armatter to beat the path for WTF. The woman gives tool new meaning.
Bill Mitchell commented:
The ONLY way democrats can argue the stimulus worked is to present fictitious numbers of the horrors which would have occurred had the stimulus not passed. Of course these numbers are completely hypothetical and high unlikely, but who cares about reality when the message is at stake?
The also use some seriously tortured math when calculating “jobs saved”. Basically, if stimulus money raised a person’s salary by a single dollar, they considered that a “job saved”, even if that person was at no risk of losing their job without stimulus.
If the new stimulus is as successful as the first, we will have to declare bankruptcy as a nation. We are winning our way right into the poor house.

Insanity= doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. They are insane! Unfortunately for America their plan is working,we are in a downward spiral and it is on purpose. To quote bg *sigh*.

Multitude commented:
I absolutely feel sorry for Debbie. As she probably says every morning, “God didn’t love me enough to make me pretty.” He apparently left her quite short on the intelligence side too.
Thank goodness we have an entire political party that is all about placing the least capable persons into the highest political offices. “Wanted: Democratic Candidates for National Office. No Experience Required!”
Capitalist Infidel commented:
If working means losing over 2.4 million jobs over the last 2 and half years than it’s worked wonders! I’m even leaving out January.

Q : Does Obama still have job as POTUS ?
A : Yes
Conclusion : The stimulus worked
Black Sabbath commented:
I love this woman! She is handing us victory on a silver platter. Never let her stop speaking!
Ipso oFact commented:
The one nice thing about DWS is that we all know that if there was ever any doubt about something – whatever she says is completely false, and we can then know the exact opposite of what she says to be the truth.
It is getting to be amusing to see that nearly every time this woman opens her mouth, she says the most absurd things in such a brazen and haughty manner that all she does is cause rancor and bring about acrimony. She cannot possibly be helping the Democrats.
Wait – there are now TWO nice things about her!
John Fembup commented:
The stimulus DEFINITELY WORKED.
You just have to inderstand what it was intended to do in the first place.
The intent, of course, was to give the Obama administration an enormous, legal political slush fund.
That slush fund was then doled out primarily to Democrat Party political allies (unions, public employers, and a few supportive private employers) in exchange for financial backing and votes in 2010.
Boss Tweed was so envious he is STILL spinning in his grave.
Blacque Jacques Shellacque commented:
Facts, please. Otherwise, you’re full of crap.
MDd commented:
The “stimulus” worked so well, the Dims dare not utter the word “stimulus” any more.
Little (chuckle) Debbie Schnauzerman-Schmutz. The gift (disaster) that keeps on giving (destroying).
KOW commented:
I think your story is mistaken. It says Obama tripled the deficit in 2010, he actually reduced the deficit. See, once you run it up so high, it is easy to claim you reduced it when you actually tripled it from the year before you took office. Of course that year was a Democratic Budget, Obama actually raised it some 7x of the last Republican budget.
backhoe commented:
The stupid is strong in this one. Coupled with the mindless belligerence, it’s an unappetizing combination…

Don’t you just LOVE those cheap Little Debbie babycakes !….. http://www.box.net/shared/static/xbk45677j3b2fkyx7udh
Fuquay Steve commented:
Debby is right – it worked all too well with the end result being a dependent nation crawling on its knees to its benefactor – the ‘O’ man.
Estragon commented:
I agree with #20 – public employees got a two-year reprieve as states were able to avoid facing reality (and some got trapped by the strings attached to funding so they cannot lay off the workers they saved or hired with ARRA money), unions got huge payoffs, campaign contributors got huge government loan guarantees at low interest, even ACORN was back with a new name cashing in.
From the perspective of DWS and BHO, it did indeed work out well.
Patty commented:
BOA is laying off workers by the 1,000 in the next 10 years.
Car Industry says average age of Americans car is 11 years.
Unemployment is more like 15% counting all those who have stopped and Part time workers who have downgraded.
Seriously, do es Wassy ever read.
J commented:
DWS…
You Lie!
The President’s own (stated) rationale for the stimulus was to boost the economy and keep the unemployment rate below 8%.
It has done neither.
Hobbitually conservative commented:
Let’s just say it worked for everybody except those who have to pay for it.
That curly hair must be like a wire brush on her brain.

Whatever chemicals DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz puts on her head to produce her stunning hairdo is seeping into her scull and destroying brain cells.
tommy mc donnell commented:
obama’s goal has been to destroy the american economy. the stimulus is doing that even better than the myth hoped.
BIGKAHUNA commented:
This women is terminally insane
How sad is it that one peson got hit by the ugly stick and the stupid stick all at once?
It is almost embarrassing to hear the woman talk and spew nonsense .
The sky is green yes it is Liberals say so
The grass is red yes it is Obama said so
When broke spedning like a drunken sailor x 10 is great strategy
Hiring 100,000 government workers is great for the economy, business ansd cutting spending
Global warming Cooling, climate change is real and we paid those scientist good money to fake data and prove it!
Unemployment checks stimulate the economy. Then why not lay off everyone and give them all a check ?
Obamacare will save money and you get to keep your insurance( even though your employer is bankrupt because of it or dropping all insurance period and dumping you on the Fed Govt lap) yet rates are up 20% and its not fully implemented
The rich want to pay more taxes ! Yet they always use ev ery loophole and tax break they can take.
If the GOP would point out the liberals idiotic statements we could marginalize that party into oblivion.
CommieJuice commented:
It’s Baloney to believe that is really a woman and not a man in drag.
Havok commented:
If the Obama Stimulous was Intended to Push us to the Bring of Economic Collapse via the Cloward-Piven plan… then it was a big honkin’ success.
As for Economic improvement and Job Creation… well the facts are facts….and failure is Definate.
rog commented:
Ya, it worked real well, now just throw another 450 billion down the crap hole.
Larkin commented:
I can’t believe that anyone in her position could be THAT stupid.
So, that leaves dishonest.
Her ability to lie to the camera with such conviction is simply stunning.

Stimulus works: it creates a communist state.
