(WASHINGTON) -- President Obama will kick off a series of Middle Class Jobs and Opportunity Tours with a trip Thursday to Austin, Texas, a White House spokesman announced Sunday.

“In his State of the Union, the president laid out his belief that the middle class is the engine of economic growth. To reignite that engine, there are three areas we need to invest in: 1) jobs, 2) skills 3) opportunity,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said.

“Even though some in Congress are determined to create more self-inflicted economic wounds, there are things Washington could be doing right now to help American businesses, schools and workers,” he said. “We need to build on the progress we’ve made over the last four years, and that means investing in things that are already creating good-paying, stable jobs that can support a middle class family.”

He's not resting. What's the weather in Austin. Any chance to get in 18 holes?

Since 1 Jan, how many travel days and speeches are we up to? I’m getting this feeling that the whole next four years might be one grand tour, with four hundred speeches.

There is one thing Washington could do to help.....

GET OUT OF THE FRACKING WAY!

Austin is in Texas, they are doing just fine. Go to one of the bad states.

Wow, you would think an innocent person would want to be in DC for the hearings. Cowardly moron is running.

[gaijin]

Funraising, huh? What Embassy is burning down?

I don’t get it.

[fortheDeclaration]

Austin is the only city in Texas that would welcome him.

I know! We need another government stimulous! But this time aimed at the middle-class! First, we print another trillion, and then we ...

Even though some in Congress are determined to create more self-inflicted economic wounds...
Excuse me, Congress is doing this?
"Always accuse the opponent of doing what you are doing" - Alinsky.

He talks the smooth talk indeed, but his policies have been a disaster for the middle and employer classes. The working class most of all.
Let me guess, he will invest tax payer money into creating these "jobs, skills and opportunity".
Not at any time does it occur to him that businesses will do all those things without his help if only he would get out of the way.
He's has not only been cutting off the branches we're sitting on, he's hacking away at the trunk, all the while he's bragging how tall the tree will be once he's done.
Doesn't work that way Mr. 0bama.

[Vince Ferrer]

Yes, they would, but what is the point of going on a jobs tour to one of the few cities that doesn’t have a jobs problem? Is he going to take credit? How?

[OpusatFR]

Gosh. When Obama wins the presidency everything will be unicorns and roses.

(Except that the clown has been in office going on 5 years and it’s worse because he missed the turn to Ringling Brothers and wound up in the White House.)

[Huskrrrr]

Focus....laser...yawn.

My gosh, I’ll be in Austin Thursday at a Job Interview.

"In his State of the Union, the president laid out his belief that the middle class is the engine of economic growth. To reignite that engine, there are three areas we need to invest in"

"Invest". That's the word they use in place of "spending". We've been down that road a thousand times already. How about not doing the same thing and expecting different results?

Having never had a working job himself I don’t know what the POS could have to offer.

[TigersEye]

Why the rush to deal with the economy? Couldn’t 0bungles put that off until the last six months of his pResidency?

Five years after first being elected, Dumbass is now going to focus like a laser on creating middle-class jobs by investing in "jobs, skills and opportunity."

WTF does that mean?
