President Obama
and his critics have a major disagreement. He says his accelerated
economic stimulus efforts will create 600,000 jobs by the end of
the summer. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky,
however, doubts "the spending binge we're on is going to produce
much good." Both can't be right. But neither has to fear being
proved wrong.
Why not? Because, writes Steve Chapman, there is no persuasive way of determining the effect of implementing the president's policies. No matter what happens, each side can claim vindication.
