12:05
SignOnSanDiego -  Good afternoon, Dean.
12:07
SignOnSanDiego -  So - the stimulus plan is getting nationwide attention, but we are not sure about nationwide results, is that correct?
12:07
DeanCalbreath -  We're not sure about the national results or the state and local results.
12:08
DeanCalbreath -  The Obama administration says that 125,000 jobs have been created so far, 600,000 will be created by the end of summer and 3.5 million will be created by the end of 2011.
12:08
DeanCalbreath -  But so far, it's hard to see what has been done.

SignOnSanDiego -  There are certainly lots iof impressive-looking pie charts on the site. http://www.recovery.gov/
12:09
DeanCalbreath -  The problem is that nobody knows for sure how many jobs have been created: not Obama, not Gov. Schwarzenegger and - here in San Diego - not Mayor Sanders.
12:09
SignOnSanDiego -  They have until October to provide those numbers, correct?
12:10
DeanCalbreath -  

The White House last week asked state and local officials - as well as government contractors - to provide job-creation data by October, correct.

12:10
DeanCalbreath -  But why aren't they providing it now?
