WASHINGTON, CA (AP) -- President Barack Obama is reassuring the public that jobs and the economy are his top priority.

At the end of a historic and emotionally charged week that began with his nationally televised announcement that Osama bin Laden had been killed in Pakistan during a raid by U.S. special forces, Obama on Saturday returned to promoting his energy agenda.

U.S. forces raided a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, where bin Laden had lived for several years, killing the al-Qaida leader.

The news of bin Laden's demise dominated the week's headlines.

U.S. President Barack Obama greets troops at Fort Campbell in Kentucky May 6, 2011. Obama addressed several military units that recently returned from duty in Afghanistan. Also during his visit, Obama privately thanked some members of the elite special forces team involved in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden.« Read less REUTERS/Kevin Lamarque (UNITED STATES - Tags: MILITARY POLITICS)

Hoorah!! We’re all going to get minimum wage jobs installing solar panels (made in China) and dual pane windows (also made in China). And, not to worry, we’ll be competing with illegal aliens for the jobs. That Obama is a real economics genius!! They can call it ZERONOMICS!!

So raising taxes on the wealthy and small businesses is somehow going to help create jobs? Good luck with that fool. Almost a million people applied for 600+ part-time, minimum wage jobs at McDonalds last month. But the economy is improving folks.

The time for reassurance has long since passed. It’s now time for some concrete successes. I haven’t seen any yet.

I want to imagine what the economy would look like if he ignored it and left it alone. His meddling is like the new mechanic who knows nothing about how things work, but he’s going to tinker with it anyway to make it better. (=>idiot)

as a FORMER job creator, i can tell you there is no point in pushing hard to create new jobs... just to have your hard work stolen and handed to the politically favored.

screw them

i’ve stopped and can wait decades if i have to. meanwhile, i will attack and ridicule their bs constantly in the hopes to saving America and killing soviet Amerika

Ubama is an EPIC FAIL.
America is ready to repudiate this usurper, as long as we don’t run another lackluster candidate.

Unfortunately neither party has jobs as a priority. Both parties have worked together to export jobs. Tax cuts and green jobs are boob bait for their respective Bubbas. First party to hear the sucking sound wins the middle class.

Get past the media fantasy show, and Odumbo is sitting behind the curtain, fiddling with his teleprompter. There is no real magic in his bag. We will have to hold out until 2012.
