All first stop the Labor Department spent 495000.
Dollars on stimulus money.
A commercials that aired on Rachel Matt -- Keith Olbermann show is.
They were abdicating the Obama administration's green training job efforts.
More than 100 commercials -- but there's -- here's the real kicker reports show that zero jobs were created.
Is this what stimulus dollars should be spent on David.
-- by the way he's aired in 2000 not but that that the fact is this is preaching to converted out of an older -- and Rachel matter I mean obviously the people watching the show believe it.
So this is a political -- this is this wasn't meant to change but was meant to find jobs and in fact is a Wall Street Journal pointed out.
A lot of the jobs that they say were created by these programs were created all Wall Street Journal tried to find him and couldn't.
Sorry this is that this is pure political ads paid for by taxpayers.
A goose that no jobs outside stimulus dot I now understand exactly why Obama wants to raise taxes.
It's very expensive to run network television ads on liberal media.
Let you know it's indicative of the administration in the way they have no regard for how they spend our taxpayer money wow that's certainly give me a big topic of the topic of the upcoming election I'm sure okay next one yesterday money -- -- Nike's new look Brian X.
Sneakers.

He went viral about -- ergo we had a monitor show.
And I looked at -- think -- -- -- you can where does this thing is -- ice and the cost me 300 bucks.
How does a guy who buys 300 dollar tennis shoes qualify for food stamps and I had -- -- I -- that this has look at where they're marketing these shoes did -- Probably yes the parents' fault I mean let's face it -- runs the show here that kids are the parent isn't part of the problem -- -- that this it can encourage staff in some area is in you know we've only had -- asked -- this article -- it's in the look at all the marketing for video games and all of these gadgets that kids have to that.
-- grade schoolers with iPhone so should be -- re buying whatever you -- -- but the point -- you shouldn't qualify for food stamps if you're -- -- we make this on clip of moving on here's an effect of the -- you may not be -- have one plant that's proving to be resilient as marijuana that's right and the Browning a drought stricken -- makes spotting pot plants much easier for crops -- -- today.
In Kentucky police have seized nearly 30000 more plans this year compared to this time last year do you think they're any lessons you guys yet.
-- got a pot had to come up with segments were this year hot hot plus day.
What do went on at a controllable -- You know honestly would their dirt and killing all these plants but what about next year they're gonna grow back.
Why don't they know where the plants are wait to see who comes to harvest the and then makes them arrest instead of spending that money just going -- kids they like out of marijuana but they're not all the potent that there's differences we got to -- there yet judge the potency -- we've got to leave it there.
