CSPAN is running some programs regarding labor.
They just finished with Sec. of Labor Hilda Solis. [I turned it on about 45 minutes into her interview.]
She was talking/blaming gridlock for the economic situation. She also said during the Obama Term, they have created 2.4 million jobs, even though they only managed a few thousand the last few months.
[And she said it with a straight face. They have repeated the lies so many times, they actually believe the lies themselves.]
==
Next segment has Fiscal Times Senior Editor, Yuval Rosenberg. He says the economy needs to be adding at least 130,000 new jobs per month just to attain the break-even point, but things are going alright because consumer spending is good.
Caller complains that businesses are sitting on bundles of cash and refusing to hire people. Rosenberg agrees with caller. [He fails explain that buinesses are apprehensive, because of the uncertain business environment.]
Rosenberg says the last stimulus did create 2.9 million jobs, but the money could have been spent better.
[I can’t listen to any more of this clueless propaganda.]

IowaPolitics Pouring rain at Tea Party of America’s “Restoring America” event in Indianola. People huddled under umbrellas, under media tent.
The front row of the media tent seemed like a good idea, but rain making its way in here. Computer getting wet. All this to see Sarah Palin.
Just a thought....if Sarah is speaking at around 1:15 Central time, what time is that in Alaska? Didn’t she say she’d announce on a radio show that does morning drive time?

Tammy Bruce I feel strangely compelled to gather up animals in pairs...
Go, Sarah, GO!
It has begun on C-Span
Is there a live stream somewhere Rin? My mom just told me she is already on? I thought it was suppose to be at 1:15?
This Sam Clovis guy is pretty funny, and he speaks without a teleprompter.
Krista Branch coming on. Love her music. It gets to me.
@IowaPolitics
IowaPolitics More photos from Tea Party event in Indianola. Still raining. Sarah #Palin up in about 1 hr, 15 min. http://tinyurl.com/3j34dct
CSpan just panned wide, LOTS of people there. Don’t ask me for an estimate.
@HeyTammyBruce
Tammy Bruce TAM meetup for tonight now scheduled! 6pm at Machine Shed, same place as last nights C4P but calmer :)
C-Span had a good crowd shot a few moments ago. There are definitely a few thousand, not the few hundred people were saying earlier
Who’s controlling her mike?
Go Sarah!!!
Looks like the rain quit just in time for Sarah. And FR is running like a scalded dog.
Don’t much believe in coincidences.
“I’m not for sale”
She nukes all her enemies with this.
