Check out these tweets from BuzzFeed’s Zeke Miller. Miller was listening to Gene Sperling, head of President Obama’s National Economic Council. Sperling is in a position to know whether the jobs council is still part of Obama’s plans and agenda, and he may have admitted more than he intended.
@ZekeJMiller: Sperling started out saying “jobs council is” now “jobs council was”
@ZekeJMiller: Sperling says Obama’s least favorite chart is one showing public sector job losses during the recovery.
@ZekeJMiller: “The president had a jobs council.”#pasttense
@ZekeJMiller: Forgot to note Sperling said this: “The president had a jobs council.” #pasttense
