Am I the only one to notice the statement, "create or save 3 million jobs". There is a LOT of difference there?

If you create 3 million jobs, great. To cover yourself by saying "or save" 3 million jobs, really means, if it doesn't work, he can fall back on "saving" 3 million jobs. How can this be verified? I don't think it can. Another piece of wool over the eyes of Americans?

    Ah, the prevaricating begins again. Remember it $250,000 was rich. Then 150, then 90 & on. First it was 2 million jobs created, then 3 then 4...now their CYAing again...SAVING jobs IS a lot different.

    Because "Saving" Jobs can not be tracked or verified...

    Not only that but Obama said, he does not know if this will really work. Isn't over 800 billion to much to risk, if it doesn't work. He also said that no one single thing they do will work, so why are we putting all our eggs in one basket on this one bill.

    It can't be verified. There is no metric on job preservation.
