I think he meant to say, “I can’t look you in the eye and tell you the Recovery Act and the stimulus created jobs.”

(CNSNews.com) — Vice President Joe Biden insisted again that the first stimulus worked as he promoted the second stimulus proposal by President Barack Obama.

Asked Sunday on CNN’s ‘State of the Union’ why Americans should support another plan when the first stimulus did not deliver on the promise of keeping unemployment below 8 percent, Biden said the first round created jobs and the economy would have been worse without it.

“No look, here’s the deal. Nobody can look you in the eye and tell you that the recovery act and that stimulus did not create jobs and did not do very good things for the economy.”
