The White House said on Wednesday it was "surprised and disappointed" by attacks on its policies from some corners of the business world, as it pushed back hard against criticism from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
"The stakes are far too high for us to be working against one another," White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel and Valerie Jarrett, President Barack Obama's top adviser, said in a letter to the chamber, a top lobby group for U.S. businesses.
"That is why we were surprised and disappointed at the rhetoric we have heard from some in the business community -- rhetoric that fails to acknowledge the important steps this administration has taken," they said in the letter, a copy of which was obtained by Reuters.
The chamber, which is hosting a jobs summit on Wednesday, has accused Obama and his Democrats in Congress of neglecting job creation and hampering growth with burdensome regulatory and tax policies.
Recalling the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the White House said it would not "stand by" while the energy industry fought tighter regulations to improve environmental safety, and stressed its duties went far wider than the business lobby.

Barak Milhous Obama has some names to add to his enemies list.
The easiest way to really tick him off is to disagree with him. He can’t stand it. What he wants is for everybody to fall in line with his beliefs. Then when things go wrong, which they surely will, he can blame industry.
Translation: "Shut up or we'll shut you up."
Why insult Nixon?
"Say, I'm disappointed at your rhetoric. Why are you working against me?"
Translation: Our Clown-O-Dent doesn’t like being lectured to by his superiors.
Obama to American businesses: Drop dead!
Those in business are just a dissapointed in his rhetoric.
An idiot-ridden administration.......what the frak do you expect from a bunch of whiney incompetents? Keep following that Keynesian economics anti-business script though.... =.=
Obama doesn’t like the complaints of business and business doesn’t like the actions of the WH. Not hard to tell which is more serious.
Sound’s like Bill Clinton:
“Better put some ice on that”.
First they rape you then they tell you to shut up and go clean up...
Obviously the WH thought they had either bought their cooperation or threatened them into silence. Guess the horses heads from Rahmbo will start arriving any day now.
Uhhhh... they are telling you that your economic policies don't work you dumbass!
Rahm and Valerie are sociopaths rapidly running out of easy rubes and big lies. At this point they become the most dangerous.
Gridlock until January is the optimal scenario, though unlikely as the twin twits of Maine and the crypto-socialist of Massholes continue to willingly get diddled in the Senate cloakrooms.
-SHUDDER-
Obama is a socialist first. He fails to reason why the shakers and movers left Europe. Stupid people that cannot get it are not allowed. Freedom is just that.
“The White House said on Wednesday it was “surprised and disappointed” by attacks on its policies from some corners of the business world....”
Obama fixes blame on business.
Quick Obama, sue them, destroy them all.
Keep your boot on their throats, make them suffer and then kill them. Give the spoils to the blacks... it’s the new American way.
You are the One, they can’t do a damn thing to you.
