Remember how President Obama told us his economic plan would "create or save" X number of jobs? I and I'm sure many others wondered just what the hell a "saved" job is. How would we know when a job was "saved"? What exactly is the definition of a "saved" job"?
It seems someone finally asked the question of our Treasury Secretary, Tim Geithner.
His answer?
"That's a loss avoided, or a rise in unemployment avoided, by getting growth back on track," Geithner answered. But when he was asked just how we will know when a job loss was prevented from happening, Geithner could only say that we'll know when the president tells us.
In other words when the President and his acolytes feel like making some shiite up out of thin air, they'll let us know.
Remember also this was the "only man smart enough" to save us from the financial crises we're in. In case you were wondering, buyers remorse is setting in and there are even miniscule rumblings the Obama administration
wants to get rid of the guy.
