I guess Boeing got it's start this way

The campaign commercials this season are practically writing themselves.

Unemployment benefits are creating jobs faster than practically any other program, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday.

Or as it has been shortened up for twitter ...

"Unemployment Checks create jobs faster than almost any other initiative you can name."

Being reasonable, yeah, unemployment benefits give people money to spend.  This is not a bad thing - if they're gonna take my money, I'd rather have it go to Bob down the street than to have a congress-critter fritter it away on hookers and blow.

But ... create jobs? Srsly Madame Speaker?
