The Obama administration, under fire for inflating job growth from the $787 billion stimulus plan,
slashed over 60,000 jobs from its most recent report on the program
because the reporting outlets had submitted "unrealistic data,"
according to a document obtained by ABC News.
The Office of Management and Budget document shows that before an Oct.
30 progress report on the program the administration asked the Recovery
Accountability and Transparency Board to remove information from 12
stimulus recipients that contained "unrealistic data," including
"unrealistic job data." (Read the document here.)
