Obama: State of the Union speech to focus on jobs
By Alister Bull
Sunday January 23, 2011

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Saturday he would use his annual State of the Union address to urge both parties to act to lift U.S. growth and create more jobs.

"My number one focus is going to be making sure that we are competitive, that we are growing, and we are creating jobs not just now but well into the future," he said in a video e-mailed to members of his Organizing for America grassroots movement.

Obama's speech on Tuesday to a joint session of the U.S. Congress will show how he plans to rise above the political gridlock that marked his first two years in the White House, shaping his 2012 re-election prospects.

**SNIP**

The White House will lay out its full fiscal plans in an annual budget expected during the week of Feb. 13. It has emphasized the need to make targeted choices that protect priorities like education, infrastructure investment and innovation.

Obama, whose video gave no details of measures to be outlined during his speech, has been pushing for ways to spur job creation and ease unemployment in the wake of his party's recent election defeat.

Since the Republicans took over the House, greedy RATS are complaining about (and what else do they do) the lack of jobs.

Maybe the rookie Hussein has all the answers this time around - again. I'm guessing no.

It’s a little too late for that! Screw the jobs. Let’s get rid of the Communist run “health care” and death panels first. The jobs will come without any help from the Fools on the Hill once ObamaCare has been repealed.

If he wants to “create” a lot of good jobs fast, Obama should open up the Gulf oil drilling platforms. Open up ANWR. And allow oil exploration in the recently closed off federal land.

Yeah, the Dems haven’t taken enough capital out of the economy to create jobs.
They need to take all the capital out.

I made a sign for my hubby for the last SOTU. The sign said “You Lie.” The idea was my husband would hold the sign whenever he thought Zero was lying. Saved me from having to hear hubby complain through the whole speech. It worked so well I think I’ll make one for each of us this year.

After having done everything he could to destroy US energy policy and discourage capital investment in the US he has the audacity to mouth these words.

REJECT OBAMA- fight him and his ilk at every turn. Give no quarter.

"This president can be a transformative leader"

You're screwin' with me. I'm not kidding. You have factual posts that no one can refute.

It was my impression that “They” were making sure that unemployment remains HIGH until just months before the 2012 elections when everything will be rosy, to ensure BHO’s RE-election.

I know. It’s not logical drilling for oil here. We need to support foreign oil. There are many mosques to be built.

Does that include gasoline prices? If yes, I'm on board. (Just watch out for the Hildabeast...)

Reject Obama is my mantra. Lets not give the commie bastard one fraction of an inch of progress. But he can restore the jobs he killed by Exec order.
