The stimulus

Some have said that the stimulus hasn't saved any jobs! But here is a case where at least one job was saved! Take for instance Oregon State University Athletic Director Bob DeCarolis' dilemma. Mr. DeCarolis was considering firing their Basketball Coach, Craig Robinson, after an 8 -11 start (2-5 in the Pac 10 Conference). When word reached Washington , Undersecretary of Education Martha Kanter was dispatched to Corvallis with $17 million in stimulus money for the university. Thankfully,Craig Robinson's job is safe for another year! Now comes the interesting part of our story... For those of you unfamiliar with Coach Robinson, he just so happens to be the brother in law of none other than our country's beloved President. NOW YOUR CATCHING ON... he is the brother of Michelle Obama! But hey, can't we all come to the conclusion that Coach Robinson's job security was all just a coincidence? I'm sure of it... aren't You? Thank Goodness For The Stimulus! But $17 million for one job? I wonder what mine is worth? If this doesn't anger you, nothing will... remember to vote this fall!
