WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama on Thursday will urge Congress to move forward on new job creation measures and pounce on Republicans for "obstructing efforts to rebuild" the U.S. economy, a White House official said.
Obama travels on Thursday to Buffalo, New York, where he will give a speech on the economy that highlights his administration's achievements after the most recent U.S. jobs report showed the largest increase in jobs in four years, the official said.
"He'll urge Congress to act quickly on new job creation measures, including proposals to strengthen small businesses so they can grow and hire," the official said on Wednesday.
"And he'll call on Republicans to stop sitting on the sidelines and obstructing efforts to rebuild our economy for the sake of short-term political gain."
Employers added 290,000 jobs in April, the U.S. Labor Department said on Friday. It revised figures for February and March to show 121,000 more jobs were added than previously thought. The unemployment rate, however, rose to 9.9 percent as the size of the labor force increased.

.. focused like a laser on jobs, Priority 1.
But first,
hey, big dog. Your party is in charge with super majorities. You have now passed two ‘jobs’ bills, and they both failed miserably. Your policies are the problem, not the opposition.
Over 200,000 of those “jobs” were temps with the Census Bureau.
What a blankety blank LIAR...
0bama does a lot of knocking Republicans, but not much competent governing. The Campaigner-in-Chief needs to stop running for president and start learning how to be president.
Glass houses, stones, etc...
LOL.
You’re best!
Census to hire 750,000 by May

Can anybody say how much of ‘bam’s original stimulus bill remains?
Might make for an interesting discussion.
You know, I do not recall Bush demonizing and ridiculing the opposition party on a regular like this—once he became president, he spoke about congress inclusively—repeatdly stated he was President of ALL the people.
I am sick and tired of this blaming, whining by Obama— constantly badmouthing the minority party—because, in effect he is trashing all citizens (us) that supported that party by association. How dare he.
He is the most low rent spectacle—I am beyond ashamed this lowclass, narcissictic jackass that is our ‘president’. What a hideous period of history we are living through.
This is an absolute nightmare we need to wake up from.
The title is an oxymoron and I’m not calling anyone names. :)
How about odumbos 10 pct unemployment rate
The government is the biggest hindrance to any job creation. Is “massa” gonna’ ease the boot of government off of the private sector for a few days? How f’in kind of the son of a bitch.
Looks like BO is getting all wee wee’d up!
crybaby Obama... those nasty Teabaggers don’t like me...
I am not getting any credit for “fixing” the economy! how dare they!
I got the media with me. The unions. Soros, and Latinos and blacks.
I gotta read Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals again. Okay, let me get
my target...those nasty Republicans are BLOCKING my jobs package?
What jobs package or small business idea?
YOU HAD 16 months dude. You spent $1 trillion on a stimulus.
Stop blaming everyone. You are a socialist and you do not want
to encourage job creation. Shut up and sit down.
We the People will speak in NOvember.
Bennett and Molholland are just the tip of the ice berg. A purge.

Message to the liar: STFU Los-er.
ROTFLMAO!!! Yeah, it's Republicans who have stopped you from creating jobs...
Barry is doing what Barry does best: blame someone or something (or rather, anyone or anything) for deficiencies on his watch. This guy is allergic to taking responsibility. Dreadful,
