Question for Hussein: What did you do with the 800-odd billion dollars in “stimulus” you hijacked from the taxpayers in 2009? Account for that first, then you can ask your little questions.

President Obama, when the government creates jobs, they take money, ie. JOBS out of the private sector to do so.

Private industry does not do that.

If you wern’t a Socialist community agitator, you might understand this.

To begin with, the GOP should respond by reminding the Kenyan that paying the salaries of “teachers and police officers and firefighters” is not the federal government’s job.

I'm for following the specification for the constrained purpose of American governance:

TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS, governments are instituted among men”
—The American Declaration of Independence.

Anything beyond that is outside the scope of purpose for American governance - and I'm against it.

AGAINST 3 items, in particular:

1. Raising taxes on anyone, especially business.

2. Increasing any restrictions on business. (In fact, all ridiculous policy restrictions on business operations should be removed by the EPA).

3. Any Government intrusion in private business policies outside of unfair rate hikes in utilities and pricing.

Are they against giving tax cuts to virtually every worker...

How does this buffoon intend to give a tax cut to someone who doesn't pay taxes? Barack Hussein Obama is a liar.

For shrinking government jobs and greatly increasing private sector jobs.

The premise of his rhetorical questions are approaching the level of criminality. Getting police and firefighters "back to work" is not a Federal function. Short-term grants do not make these jobs permanent. Police and fire jobs are highly dependent on property tax and sales tax - both local sources.

If the economy is in the crapper, Barry would rather provide temporary feel-good fixes (grants and political pay-ffs to unions), rather than getting out of the way of the small businesses that will allow both local property taxes and local sales taxes to improve, to allow laid-off police and fire personnel to get back to work.

The use of false-premise questions is getting frickin' embarrassing to watch. They try to pose the questions as a series of Hobson's Choice but in reality they are more like "when did you stop beating your wife" in their construct. "Would you rather give tax breaks to millionaires or starve children" has GOT to stop, and true conservatives NEED to push back with logical arguments.

The Laffer Curve has been side-lined....it works.

Rightly or wrongly, you are perceived by the electorate as a socialist. The day you’re out of office, the economy will immediately begin to improve and heal itself. Republicans don’t have to do anything except help you pack your bags.

Mr President, at this point the US Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, and Richard Durbin, Senior Senator from your home state of Illinois and sponsor of this “Jobs Bill”, both DEMOCRATs, have both publicly stated that they cannot get enough Senate DEMOCRATS (your own ‘folks’) for a majority to pass YOUR BILL. Thus all of this is simply hot air rhetoric to convince your base that it is only those evil Republicans who are keeping paradise from coming tomorrow!

Are those shoes starting to hurt? Just wait, it is getting worse the longer you speak and do NOTHING that actually works!

Perhaps he should talk to his Senate Democrats first about what they are against?

Mr. President, how come you haven't streamlined government regulations and overhauled the economy-inhibiting income tax system so it ENCOURAGES economic expansion in the first place? Small wonder why, Mr. President, you know very well that it's going to be a very daunting challenge to get yourself re-elected next year.

. “If so, it’s time for them to tell me what those proposals are. And if they’re opposed to this jobs bill, I’d like to know what exactly they’re against. Are they against putting teachers and police officers and firefighters back on the job? Are they against hiring construction workers to rebuild our roads and bridges and schools?"

Speaking for myself, and I hope for others, I'm against make-work handouts at above market wages to unionized cronies. All of the examples of job beneficiaries are heavily unionized, with "prevailing" Davis-Bacon wage rates. As a taxpayer, I'd rather pass--I saw what happened with the last $800 Billion--it disappeared to the pockets of favored supporting groups.
