Your tax dollars (not) at work. This is a good example of the Obama jobs program. This is a story that you will not read on the Obama campaign's official campaign site.

The Labor Department paid out hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal stimulus funds to a public relations firm to run more than 100 commercials touting the Obama administration’s “green training” job efforts on two MSNBC cable shows, records show.

The commercials ran on MSNBC on shows hosted by Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann in 2009, but the contract didn’t report any jobs created, according to records reviewed recently by The Washington Times.

Spending reports under the federal Recovery Act show $495,000 paid to McNeely Pigott & Fox Public Relations LLC, which the Labor Department hired to raise awareness “among employers and influencers about the [Job Corps] program’s existing and new training initiatives in high growth and environmentally friendly career areas” as well as spreading the word to prospective Job Corps enrollees.

How do they keep getting by with this stuff? I know the liberal media will never hold him accountable, but can't congress at least blow the whistle on him for this ? I don't know how much money is in the Romney war chest, but he should be running informational ads 24/7. The people need to know every time this administration has run roughshod over the law.

wouldn't have been cheaper just to mail $100 to the viewers of those shows?
