Russ Carnahan may be proud of his work making sure Nancy Pelois’s agenda passes with as little maintenance as possible, the results are not too much to be proud of.
Even though I trust the “created or saved” numbers about as far as I can throw an aircraft carrier, these numbers are dismal even by the bogus standards set by this administration:
| District | Jobs “Saved or Created” |
| Missouri District 4 Missouri District 6 Missouri District 1 Missouri District 8 Missouri District 7 Missouri District 9 Missouri District 2 Missouri District 3 |
12724.22 523.05 478.7 375.9 324.92 253.91 130.39 101.95 |
I oppose pork barrel spending – it is literally buying votes with the taxpayer’s money. Nevertheless, if you are going to saddle the people of your district with crushing debt, they ought to have something to show for it.
