Found this Joke of the day at WND.com

An interoffice softball game was held every year between the company's marketing and support staff.

The support staff whipped the marketing department soundly. But the marketing department showed how they earn their keep by posting this memo on the bulletin board after the game:

"The marketing department is pleased to announce that during the 2009 softball season, we came in 2nd place, having lost just one game all year. However, the support staff had a rather dismal season, as they won only one game."

This joke kind of reminded me of the claims by our Vice President Joe Biden on the 3rd of September where he said: "Two hundred days ago, President Obama signed into law the third piece of our economic plan: the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. And today there's a growing consensus: The Recovery Act is, in fact, working. Don’t just take my word for it. Analysts from Moody’s to IHS Global Insight, to the Economic Policy Institute and others all estimate the Recovery Act has created or saved between 500,000 to 750,000 jobs. As a matter of fact, some notable economists suggest the number is as high as a million."

But what about the many more jobs that have been lost. See chart below and more at: The one objective standard President Obama set for himself to measure the success of the stimulus package was -8% unemployment by August. and Obama Jobs Deficit is 5 million off of Obama's own target
