During this whole thing he ignored the last shuttle launch. Indeed his ‘speach’ was timed to interfere with coverage of the launch.

As a matter of fact we’ve had about 4 months of jobs disappearing. Yesteday’s news overridden by the murdered baby news-a-thon was that first time unemployment claims for LAST WEEK ALONE were at 418,000. Granted, there are always folks shifting jobs, but during the high employment good-old-days with President Bush that number was about 250-300 thousand. That means some 118,000 people last week were NOT seeking to lose their jobs and go on unemployment.

And we’ve had nearly a third of a year at those high numbers.

Pushing 1,250,000 people have lost real jobs without any desire to do so.

LOL I didn’t have time to copy paste -and format- it. I was shocked at what people were saying about TheWon on his official FB prompter page.

A real jobs bill would be approval of coal, shale oil, anwar drilling. A real jobs bill would be an amendment to end the income tax and institute only a national sales tax. A real jobs bill would be a bill cutting paperwork requirement on businesses.

A real immediate jobs bill would be a pledge NOT to raise taxes of any variety.

A real immediate jobs bill would be the total rescinding of Obamacare.

Why hire anyone when the price of that worker could double or triple overnight because some politician is trying to buy votes with handouts and stealing your profits to accomplish that?

Yep

Makes you just want to cry. When will there be REAL change?

What hope do we have?

Nothing seems to change. I blame BOTH sides - D’s and R’s

Where can we find HOPE in this mess?

I just don’t see where change is going to occur.

I have lost faith in ALL government.

Rinos, Cinos, and Democrats actually do consider themselves a ruling elite.

“the only construction going on here”

I was out driving yesterday and saw a road crew. 15 people with 2 people actually working. About 100 yards of repaved road.

Passed this crew twice and counted each time, especially after noticing the number who weren’t working. I had missed a couple the 1st time......

Pitiful. Pee-tee-full.

Debt ceiling has to be raised so we can spend more money on infrastructure

It will be kind of like North Korea; all these wide open roads....and no one with the capital to drive on them.

Its not that bad, quipped Obama. We have created more work-free Americans. Millions of Americans are now free to follow their dreams of being an artist or musician.

You know everytime we have a problem in the US and Obama gives a speech about it..its like the problem just goes away.
Pretending real hard there is nothing wrong with the economy or lack of jobs works,too.
