Obama won’t rest until every American has a job. Except for his weekly golf. And all vacations. And trips to the burger joint with Joe. And TV interviews.

Obama Speech
“We’re putting Americans back to work doing the work that America needs done,” the President said in a speech to the Democratic Governors Association, “Rebuilding roads, bridges, uhh, and new schools, and all manner of construction projects across all 50 states. I’m not going to rest. I know the governors and candidates here are not going to rest, and I know that the American people are not going to rest until everybody who’s looking for work can find a job.”

And then President Empty Suit flew off to Copenhagen while the unemployment rate rose to 9.8%.

Where are all the jobs he was supposed to create…and in my book creating a job does not mean giving someone work for a weekend…

Don’t worry Jason. I watched Labor Secretary Solis this morning on CNBC. She said she’s seen with her own eyes lots of unemployed people going to job training, and not to worry, there will be gazillions of new green jobs coming our way soon. This was her semi-coherent answer to the pointed question of what the administration is doing to stem job losses now, not in the future, but now.

It’s estimated that if you factor in unemployment, under employment and all those who have given up looking after they’ve run out of benefits, the true figure is over 17%.

Today, Americans saved millions of their tax dollars as the expedient smooth talk of the Chicago political machine of greed & corruption failed to CASH IN on the backs of taxpaying Americans. We saved not only Tax Dollars & Stimulus Money that would have MYSTERIOUSLY wound up in the pockets of Chicago for political payback, but we also saved additional millions in taxes that would have SILENTLY been spent on National Security Measures that singularly promoted & rewarded the political cronyism in one State. Perhaps now this “WH Chicago Administration” can redirect its focus to help with jobs, the economy and suffering of Americans living in other States other than Chicago.

Very well said IMO.

Another point: Maybe its a good thing that BHO stays as far away from our economy as possible. Maybe he should stop off at Amsterdam on the way back. I heard there’s lots of quaint “shops” there….

Thank You, Tom

Our Congressional dimwits say: “lets take the vote on HealthCare Reform, not on the actual BILL, but on a “conceptualized version” so that all UnAmerican scrutiny & accurate CBO scoring can be avoided.” They continue to refer the bill as the President’s Healthcare Reform, not America’s Heathcare Reform. I guess that pretty much tells 65% of unimportant Americans, that sucking up to a presidential bruised ego is more important than “we the people”.

Democrats all think that jobs come from the government. Thats like thinking that your ” Big Mac ” was made by a state health inspector.

Dear UnAmericans, “Change You Can Believe In” is falling a little short but guess what? George Bush, told ME to say that!
