Visual Evidence the Obama Team Completely Misjudged the Stimulus Impact - Jim Geraghty - The Campaign Spot on National Review Online
The light blue line is what unemployment would have been if we didn't pass the Stimulus.
The dark blue line is what they expect to be unemployment with stimulus passed.
The brown dots are where it actually panned out to be.
Criticism of the stimulus aside, this is what happens when you trust the people trying to pass the legislation to round up the facts and data. That graph came from the Whitehouse. I thought there were non-partisans that were responsible for this data? Anyway, think about this next time someone projects the impact of their legislation.
