GOP's "Ludicrous" Jobs Plan

Anyone who is surprised by Republican efforts describing their recent jobs plan as creating 5 million jobs hasn't been paying attention for the last ten years.

Tea Bagger Randy Paul (R-KY) sent out a press release exclaiming the bill would create 5 million new jobs.  John McCain and Rob Portman all signed on to it as well.  This is what they do.  Republicans make wild claims and no one is to ever question them.  If we do question them, we are liberal or anti-American.

But we do have fact-checkers that try to keep up.  And WaPo's Glenn Kessler calls their claim "ludicrous."

As well know, however.  Republicans aren't talking about a real jobs plan meant for reality. They're referring to their alternate universe where they are merely Freedom Fighters trying to keep America from going socialist.
