Obama’s corporate boy toy blames business for the lack of jobs

Obama crony Jeff Immelt gets marched out to defend the job killing effects of Obamanomics by blaming businesses for not creating enough new employment.

President Obama is a study in hypocrisy. He lectures the pubic on the need for sacrifice while wasting millions of their dollars on parties. He promised the most transparent administration in our history but has delivered one of its most secretive. He defends trickle down tax hikes on the middle class by attacking the “fat cat corporations” while all the while enriching those friendly to his regime.

Immelt and Obama: The boy toy and the manchild

No wonder Obama crony Jeff Immelt gets marched out to defend the job killing effects of Obamanomics by blaming businesses for not creating enough new employment.

This is from CNN:

The head of General Electric (GE) told a jobs summit at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Monday that businesses needed to take the lead on job creation.

At a conference where many of the comments were focused on government barriers to hiring, GE Chairman and CEO Jeffrey Immelt acknowledged there needed to be some policy changes by Congress and the Obama administration. But he said that the responsibility for hiring lay with businesses.

“The people who are part of the business sector, the people in this room, have got to stop complaining about government and get some action underway,” he told the group. “There’s no excuse today for lack of leadership. The truth is we all need to be part of the solution.”

No Mr. Immelt. If the people in that room want to succeed what they’ve got to do is buddy up to Obama. That way they can get some TARP money and skip out on paying their taxes too.

Goddess Gaia’s heretic? General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt says he regrets going too green.

Jeff Immelt, the man who’s done more for the green movement than any other CEO in America, has now had a change of heart. At least that’s what he’d have you believe.

"Hmmmm. What can I say that will lure a few more suckers into the carnival tent?"

Reuters has the story of Immelt’s supposed conversion from the religion of the Goddess Gaia:

“If I had one thing to do over again I would not have talked so much about green,” Immelt said at an event sponsored by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “Even though I believe in global warming and I believe in the science … it just took on a connotation that was too elitist; it was too precious and it let opponents think that if you had a green initiative, you didn’t care about jobs. I’m a businessman. That’s all I care about, is jobs.”

Here’s our bottom line:

When Immelt stops taking boatloads of federal dollars, when he stands up against those stupid twisty light bulbs, when he puts out a memo telling NBC to end those moronic green weeks, that’s when we’ll believe anything he has to say on this subject.
