Why won't Obama talk about the economy? (Harry Reid, highway, Reid)

[eRayP]

Obama only want to pass a partial, one-year extension. Republicans only want to pass an extension that continues the Bush tax cuts for everyone.

I will spell it out for you. Obama wants to extend the Bush tax cuts for those making below $250K for only one year. After that, your taxes go higher. Do you really think he will push for another year extension if he is re-elected? Why would he? If he claims he will, why not push for it never to expire on you now?

Raising taxes on the middle class and the job creators during a jobs shortage makes about as much sense as cutting off the water supply during a drought."

Why can't Obama talk about the economy and his plan to fix the economy?

How is Obama going to get America back to work?

And he still isn't talking about his economic record. Only when he talks about raising taxes on Americans.


Shhh, lets not talk about the millions of people who lost their jobs.

Don't talk about the huge debt either

Oh, he talks about it, it's just a lot of excited yelling, spin, avoiding the negative, and fist-pumping. No substance.... yet somehow, the gullible audience eats it up each time!

Same reason Ismay did not want to talk about his trip when he reached New York.

The theory that Mr. Obama doesn't talk about the economy is undercut by the fact that he does.

He has absolutely no experience in the business world; you're right, Obama "talks" about the economy in every speech but has done nothing to solve the problem. Intelligence? Oh he's a "smooth" operator all right, look how many people he has BS'd into believing he should be re-elected.
