Obama Admits he Lied about Jobs

He promised shovel ready jobs if the Congress rushed through the $787 billion dollar stimulus earlier this year. He promised 400,000 to 3.5 million jobs and that unemployment would not rise above 8%. But as we all know by now absolutely nothing that he promised was real. It was all made up. (see 4:21min video)

Now that he can no longer deny the reality of unemployment as high as 10.2% nor can he deny the made up Congressional districts in which made up jobs appeared, Soetoro admitted that he lied about jobs. No he didn’t say that he lied, and he didn’t admit that he was wrong about everything, he did just the opposite. Soetoro pretended like his economic policies worked but at the same time he's called for a jobs summit.

What does calling for a Jobs Summit mean? It means that Soetoro's economic stimulus failed. It means that his economy stimulus did not create the jobs that he said it would. Calling for a jobs summit is an admission that what he's done didn't work, it is an admission that Soetoro lied.

It's all camouflage. He's not trying to make jobs.

Look, if you're serious about putting Americans to work, and if you're looking for "shovel-ready" jobs, the easiest thing to do is to build the Wall on our southern border. It's pretty much ready to go. Start digging. Then, crack down on illegal immigrants. Send them home. Let Americans have those jobs.

This is a no brainer, but they aren't considering it.

It became a slush fund for Donks and their buddies.

“Obama lied. The economy died!”

I hate headlines like this. It’s no different than the headline “Obama admits to being a Muslim”.
They are bullsh*t. Obama has admitted no such thing.

I thought there was going to be instructions on how to get a refund on the shovel I bought

..... generally true, except in the case of UNION jobs.

Obama had to re-imburse all those that bought him into being POTUS.

Lately, I’ve noticed ads on radio and TV touting unions. Specifically SEIU and IBEW. We now live in an age where the unions are what matter. Our own petty concerns must take a backseat — the politicians have made deals, and the unions are lined up to get the goods.

“He promised shovel ready jobs if the Congress rushed through the $787 billion dollar stimulus earlier this year.”

Good one! Who believed him?...All we got was shovel ready bull$%*t!....

I haven’t read the book, but it seems apparent that Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” does not have a section on economics and job creation.

[Alaphiah123]

You’re right and you’re wrong. Though he hasn’t verbally admitted he was wrong (he’d blame Bush before he’d do that) by his actions, he has admitted that he lied.

That’s the point here. We all know that with a Democrat its not what he says, but its what he does.

That’s the point of this post. Sorry you missed it!

So it’s fake but accurate?
Dan Rather is that you?

[Alaphiah123]

I’ve read the book it only covers how to deceive and obstruct your way into political power.

That’s why Soetoro has launched a permanent campaign nothing else is covered in the Alinsky method!

[Alaphiah123]

No its true and verafiable and Dan Rather can’t do that!
But thanks for the laugh!!!

..... I may have related the story here before, but it bears on what you are saying. A friend of mine serves on the board of selectmen of a small town here in MA. His town, like most others, has been under severe budgetary duress and looked upon the “stimulus” funds appropriated by Congress as a godsend - a means to complete several important municipal projects that had been stalled duw to lack of funds.

However....

Only when they contacted the state office charged with distributing the stimulus money, did they discover the strings attached to the money:

1. Stimulus funds were only available for NEW projects. Pre-existing projects did not qualify.

2. Any stimulus funded project required use of UNION labor for any related contruction work. Use of non-union labor would disqualify the project as a candidate for stimulus money, even if the use of non-union labor met the MA prevailing wage compensation law which normally make them legally eligible for public works projects.

The dots are not difficult to connect.

The fantasy world Of our government is right there in black & white, folks.

First, note that this clipping is two months and 600,000 lost jobs ago.

Try replacing the name Øbama with Bush, the number with 4.8% and the word "Stimulus" with "tax cuts" and you'll have the glaring bias demonstrated by the LMSM when they lambasted W for such a "high" number during the bulk of his presidency. Now, when we need an aggressive media most, they're too busy excoriating the tea parties and bowing at the altar of Socialism.

You can easily replace the top line with "3/5ths of Americans doubt Global Warming", then the Obama line "The consensus is clear..."

Or same statistic for Obamacare, then Zero BSing us about an unprecedented demand for the Marxist government takeover of Medicine.

We're through the looking glass and I don't see it going much further without a full-on citizen's revolt.
