Published: 7/8/2009 Rep. Boehner recently released a new YouTube video targeting the failure of Washington Democrats trillion-dollar so-called stimulus bill and asking where are the jobs? The tongue-in-cheek web video, inspired by a classic 1984 TV commercial by now-Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), features a job-sniffing GOP bloodhound named Ellie Mae and a down-home voiceover by Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA). This is a lighthearted web video, but the underlying point is no laughing matter, Boehner said. At a time when Americans are looking to Washington for leadership, the trillion-dollar "stimulus" has been a wasteful failure. Americans were promised the stimulus would keep the unemployment rate from going above eight percent. Its now at 9.4 percent, and rising. In Ohio, the unemployment rate when the so-called stimulus was proposed in January was 9.8 percent; today it stands at 10.8 percent.
