Perry: Americans Need Work, Not Symbolism; We Need New Jobs, Not New Agencies
Rick Perry ^ | August 16th, 2011 | Rick Perry & Staff

Posted on 08/16/2011 5:56:26 PM PDT by shield

CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA – Texas Gov. Rick Perry today visited Cedar Rapids, Iowa where he criticized President Obama’s proposal to create a new jobs agency as a solution to economic recovery. He also reiterated his call for the Administration to issue a six-month freeze on new regulations to help free employers to create more jobs for Americans.

“What is this president’s plan to fix the economy? Apparently to create a new jobs agency,” Gov. Perry said. “Mr. President, we have tried two and a half years of government creating jobs, it’s time to let the private sector get to work. Americans need work, not symbolism. We need new jobs, not new agencies. If you want to create jobs, don’t create a new agency, and stop all the unnecessary regulations of the agencies you already control.”

He’s definitely made a splash. It’ll be interesting to watch. I’m glad he’s in.

“it’s like we just moved the battle tanks to the front line.”

Yup. The guy’s a real guy. Acts like, talks like and walks like one. Don’t see him on a girl’s bike, that’s for sure.

The first step in the NEED for jobs is to make it a helluva lot harder to get ‘free money’.

Like the “Wizard of Id” cartoon... if you are giving me free food, free housing, free car, free tv, ETC ETC why on earth would I need a job....
that is the mindset we are facing and are spinning our wheels over.

Can you truly believe it? Obama actually proposed a new federal agency to tackle jobs. Takes tone-deaf to a new level.

Really....you obviously don't know the Jack Wheeler I'm talking about....he was with Reagan as Governor and as President. He helped to implement the Reagan Doctrine...'We Win They Lose.' The Wheeler that was killed was John Wheeler called Jack sometimes.

Jack Wheeler's Website. Dr. Jack Wheeler is one of the most respected conservatives in America.

OH...I’m sure when they find it the thread will be hit. I am rather tired of the bashing cause I have to bash back.
