WARREN, Mich. (AP) — Conceding unemployment will get worse before it shrinks, President Barack Obama on Tuesday unveiled a $12 billion plan to help community colleges prepare millions of people for a new generation of jobs. Challenging critics, he said he welcomed the task of turning around the economy.
"I love the folks who helped get us in this mess and then suddenly say, 'Well, this is Obama's economy,'" the president told an outdoor crowd at Macomb Community College, veering off his scripted words. "That's fine. Give it to me. My job is to solve problems, not to stand on the sidelines and harp and gripe."
Obama did not identify his target for those comments, but he has been under increasing fire from Republicans over the pace of the economic recovery and the soaring deficit.
Republican Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, a former education secretary, said Obama's plan is a "typical proposal" that sounds better than it is. "When our biggest problem as a country is too much debt, he's taking the entitlement spending he claims to be saving from the student loan program and adding it to the debt," Alexander said.

So wait, where’s the outrage like when Bush said, “bring ‘em on?”
What new jobs?
How to collect unemployment for life?
How to apply for government grant?
How to pass the new Obama 1-page Civil Service Test?
Civilian Security Force?
Gee, that might have some street-cred if you can prove that you've ever solved and not created problems.
Punk.
Name any problems you have ever solved.
You have no idea how to run a business or create wealth. Everything you spew is old retreaded leftest theory that fails every time it is put into practice.
Of course, next week he'll be back to blaming the Bush Admin.
He inherited a trillion debt and pushed it up to 10 trillion and says it’s Bush’s fault?????
The long legged mack daddy is exactly that.
Yeah, I’d like to give to ya you freakin idiot.
What I would like to “give” to Obama is smelly, and is found in an unflushed toilet.
0bama and his jackass party are the REASON we have the problems today.
Anybody who thinks he can fix what he himself helped create is a fool.
I have an idea that would put people to work! A brand new job that will take millions of people off the unemployment rolls! Are you ready? Can I have a drum roll???
WIND TURBINE BLOWERS and SUCKERS!
Thats right!. When there is no wind, we put people up on scaffolds in front of wind turbines to blow at the turbines! On the other side, we put turbine suckers who suck in. This way, we turn the turbines, produce clean electricity, and have no carbon footprint because the suckers suck in the air the blowers blow out.
parsy, who is headed out to get a gov’t grant to test the scientific efficacy of sucking and blowing
0bama and his jackass party are the REASON we have the problems today.
*********************
To be fair, many decisions by both parties have led us to where we are today. However, it seems to me Obama was elected to clean up the flour that spilled all over the floor and instead he’s tracking it all over the rest of the house.
He solved the unemployment problem for the 32 Czars he has named to run over the cabinet officers.
When a problem comes along
'bama fix it
Before the cream sets out too long
'bama fix it
When somethings goin' wrong
'bama fix it
Obama fix it
Fix it good
Shapes it up
Gets it straight
Goes forward
Moves ahead
Try to deflect it
It's not too late
Barry fix it
Fix it good
If you don’t like accepting all the congratulations or blame for the economy, don’t run for President.
Grow a pair, weenie!
