I received this from my brother in Ohio this am and have not attempted to verify it. Have any members verified this fact??
Some have said that the stimulus hasn't saved any jobs, but here is a case
where at least one job was saved.
According to an unnamed source, Oregon State University Athletic Director
Bob DeCarolis was considering firing their basketball coach, Craig
Robinson, after an 8-11 start (2-5 in the Pac 10 conference).
When word of this reached Washington, Undersecretary of Education Martha
Kanter was dispatched to Corvallis with $17 million in stimulus money for
the university. The source now says that Craig Robinson's job is safe for
this year.
For the record, Coach Robinson just happens to be Michelle Obama's brother.
