WASHINGTON – Declaring "I don't quit,'" an embattled President Barack Obama vowed in his first State of the Union address Wednesday night to make job growth his topmost priority for the year and urged a divided Congress to come together around new stimulus spending and short-term economic relief. He said he would still pursue ambitious longer-term changes to health care, energy, education and beyond.
"Change has not come fast enough," Obama said before a politician-packed House chamber and a TV audience of millions. "I do not accept second-place for the United States of America. As hard as it may be, as uncomfortable and contentious as the debates may be, it's time to get serious about fixing the problems that are hampering our growth."

Socialists love to spend OPM to garner favor with the asses and half asses amongst us.

I just told my first wife that I wish the Republicans had rehearsed the Wave you see at ball games...
Starting with you!
FUBO
I thought health care was his top priority.
Yes, he’s going to create jobs....but then again, he’s making cutbacks that will cost people their jobs.
Talk about phony baloney.
Oh boy. Another speech from The One.
Now he’s talking about green jobs, solar panels, climate change related jobs.
Give me a frikkin’ break, Obummer. This will do NOTHING for the average, unemployed American who can’t suddenly change careers because you think “it’s the right thing to do.”
I’ll get the feathers. Who wants to warm up the tar?
Cap and trade by another name. It isn’t dead yet.
Want more jobs?
Have less government.
I am filled with so much gas from just listening 2 minutes of this windbag my feet are barely touching the floor.
Yeah, try using solar panels here in cloudy, cold, dreary Pennsylvania.
And by the way, climate change has been proven to be a fraud.
Dope!
The Dems weren't serious about Porkulus, it was just a bad joke.
Of course, they’ll always need serfs. :)
After the underwear bomber, he declared fighting terrorism was his top priority...
Sad to say but we would had been better off if Hillary was our President.
Shhhh! He just revisited it! And now it's lurking in the shadows again!! Argghhhh!!!
This SOTU speech itself has saved or created 1.5 million jobs from what I hear. /s
“I don’t quit.”
Darn ... one too many words.
0bama owes me a new keyboard. You can't get all those vomit chunks out from under the keys. IAC, he's preemptively lying again. It's impossible for a president from the nutcase branch of the Degenerative Party to do anything positive economically nowadays.
