Last Monday, President Obama made news by promising to give a speech in September detailing, "a very specific plan to boost the economy, to create jobs and to control our deficit."
But has that "very specific plan" already been downgraded to an outline?
That is, at least, the impression I got watching Obama advisors Robert Gibbs and David Axelrod on yesterday's Sunday morning shows.
"The president is going to outline a short-term plan to accelerate the economy," Axelrod said on ABC's This Week, "in the face of the hits we've taken, because of the Arab Spring and oil prices, because of the Japanese earthquake, because of Europe that have slowed down economic growth.
On Meet the Press, Gibbs used similar language, "The president is going to outline some ideas, the president has outlined ideas every day he's been in the White House."
Yes, Obama has outlined ideas while in the White House, but what he has not done is produce "a very specific plan to boost the economy, to create jobs and to control our deficit."
Will September's speech be any different than the past? If Axelrod and Gibbs are going to be believed, apparently not.
plan is 3 words...country before party...
ROTFLMAO!!!

“Someone needs to make a picture of Obama behind the desk in the oval office, with a desk plaque that says, “Don’t blame me, I just read the teleprompter.”
“The Buck Stops Over There”
LOL, thanks.
