A prime example of why I write with rage: Jobs "saved or created" in congressional districts that don't exist.

.
As a people, we should not require a filter that will enable us to determine when the empty suit is lying and when he and his henchmen are telling the truth.

However, since almost every domestic policy our ACORN-in-Chief has attempted to implement of any size, from the Porkulus through cap and swindle to this utterly moronic plan to give terrorist scum the largest stage on earth in New York... all have been rife with lies, miscalculations and utter incompetence.

Beating them all, however, is the pathetic effort to get us to believe that the economy, so artfully talked down by the empty suited, anti-American racist bigot occupying the White House during his "No Lie I Won't Tell If You Suckers Will Buy It" campaign is now, magically, recovering... all due to the messiah's OWN efforts, you see... thus the recovery.gov campaign website.

And this is where the rage starts. The story speaks for itself, but it does represent the primary reason why I always "mute" the TV or radio whenever the Liar-in-Chief or any of his minions are speaking. What's the point? Their lips are moving, therefore they lie.

This explains it:

Exclusive: Jobs 'Saved or Created' in Congressional Districts That Don't Exist

Human Error Blamed for Crediting New Stimulus Jobs to Nonexistent Places

Here's a stimulus success story: In Arizona's 15th congressional district, 30 jobs have been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending. At least that's what the Web site set up by the Obama administration to track the $787 billion stimulus says.

There's one problem, though: There is no 15th congressional district in Arizona; the state has only eight districts.

And ABC News has found many more entries for projects like this in places that are incorrectly identified.

Late Monday, officials with the Recovery Board created to track the stimulus spending, said the mistakes in crediting nonexistent congressional districts were caused by human error.

"We report what the recipients submit to us," said Ed Pound, Communications Director for the Board.

Pound told ABC News the board receives declarations from the recipients - state governments, federal agencies and universities - of stimulus money about what program is being funded.

"Some recipients clearly don't know what congressional district they live in, so they appear to be just throwing in any number. We expected all along that recipients would make mistakes on their congressional districts, on jobs numbers, on award amounts, and so on. Human beings make mistakes," Pound said.

The issue has raised hackles on Capitol Hill.

Rep. David Obey, D-Wisc, who chairs the powerful House appropriations Committee, issued a paper statement demanding that the recovery.gov Web site be updated.

"The inaccuracies on recovery.gov that have come to light are outrageous and the Administration owes itself, the Congress, and every American a commitment to work night and day to correct the ludicrous mistakes."

ABC News was able to locate several examples on the government's Web site outlining hundreds of millions of dollars spent and jobs created in Congressional districts that have been misidentified.

For example, recovery.gov says $34 million in stimulus money has been spent in Arizona's 86th congressional district in a project

Why? Why does the scumbag running this country have to lie to us? When can we start believing him? Of COURSE it was "human error" that caused this crap. The "human error" that led to this moron getting caught in yet ANOTHER lie. And it is a lie.

So, when does he start telling the truth so we can believe him when he talks, good or bad?

What's that?

We can't? Ever?

Didn't think so.
