(Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Tuesday there were a range of policy options available that could create up to a million new U.S. jobs, in remarks ahead of a major economic speech that he will deliver next week.
Obama must boost growth and bring down unemployment to be confident of winning another White House term in the November 2012 general election. Economists are skeptical he will get Congress to agree to significant new spending on jobs.
"We don't have magic bullets, but what we do have, I think, is the capacity to do some things right now that would make a big difference," Obama said in a interview with popular radio talkshow host Tom Joyner.
The White House says details of the job creation proposals Obama will unveil next week are still being worked out and it has yet to announce an exact date or location for his speech, although Obama hinted at some of the ideas he would put forth.

My God. He really, actually said that?
And my aunt COULD be my uncle — if she had a penis.
The Dog Days of August are just about over and Obama plans to hoodwink the people, again, with the promise of jobs jobs jobs...
FUBO!
HEY! Take Alaska with you, they can have Hawaii.
This is not a plan to create jobs. This is another tax and spend - or just spend - project that will last a year or two and end with no increase in the GNP.
There will be no permanent jobs, only some temporary busy work that will come crashing down on every one for whom the government will have spent $1 million per temp. Another boondoggle.
It is absolutely obvious that the O administration is opposed to private sector growth. That is the only source of permanent growth. These socialist fascists will destroy the private sector given enough time.
Blaming Bush again.
What a jerk.
I would much rather envision being kidnapped by 9 skantily clad , bronze skinned, melon breasted gorgeous brunette aliens in a space ship for a week.
Its all a more positive dream , but, equally low probability.
beggars would ride.
If wishes were fishes,
we’d all have a fry.
If horse turds were biscuits,
we’d eat ‘till we die.
Hey, go easy on him — he didn’t say the jobs would be in the US, or if they were, for US citizens. Thanks mdittmar.
Lemme guess..he got the figures straight from his ass. The same method Algore got his “facts” about global warming.
My god, this mans brain is a pebble.
[We don’t have magic bullets, but what we do have, I think, is the capacity to do some things right now that would make a big difference,” Obama said ]
Translation:
“We don’t have magic bullets, but what we do have is magic bullets”
Lemme tellya...
If I could totally spend money I don’t have ... I could build this widget plant. And I would employ people at like, 12 bucks an hour to make widgets ... but getting people for management positions for my bullfly widget company is going to be expensive... PLUS ... what’s a widget?
"I will create one miiiillllion jobs!!!"
“YOU LIE!”
Obama WOULD crate a million jobs instantly if he resigned
Bush asked for TARP that is true, and yes it was 800 billion added to the deficit for FY 2009 however, half was left to Obama to spend which he bailed out the Auto industry with and it was all supposedly paid back so the question to Obama is what happened to the TARP money? If it got paid back how can that be part of the deficit?
Obama LIES...
THE TRILLION DOLLAR DEFICITS ARE YOURS AS PRESIDENT....CONSIDERING THAT THE SENATE DID NOT PASS A BUDGETS FOR MORE THAN TWO YEARS....CONSIDERING THAT THE SENATE VOTED AGAINST YOUR MOST RECENT HYPER TRILLION DOLLAR BUDGET BY 97-0. JUST BECAUSE YOUR DEMOCRAT BASE IS STUPID DOES NOT MEAN WE ARE. WE KNOW THE PURSE STRINGS BEGAN WITH PELOSIE, BEGINNING 2007 AND ENDING 2011.
YUCK FOU.
