Nonsense. Even a bunch of GOP Senators and Congressmen have specifically thanked stimulus funds for creating specific jobs and projects in their states. .gov has that information for you, btw. When a state received $333,000 to do a specific road project that hired 12 people, that's not "bull" or "bogus". This isn't guessing about the future, it's looking back at what actually happened. Is it completely exact down to the penny? Obviously not - and that's the part within the "range" that is given.
