I believe you know damn well that President Obama never said that "Americans are lazy," that that quote was snipped from a longer quote where he said that American presidents had been lazy, himself included.
If you quoted that, thinking it was the truth, then your ignorance and inability to believe anything but the sound bites that come from sources such as Fox Boobs has just become embarrassingly (for you) evident (not that it already wasn't).

You assume, I get my info from Fox, I'll assume you are a CNN baby!!
He said this..................
“We’ve been a little bit lazy over the last couple of decades. We’ve kind of taken for granted — ‘Well, people would want to come here’ — and we aren’t out there hungry, selling America and trying to attract new businesses into America.”
Then does this................
1. Obama's Illegal Ban on Offshore Oil Exploration:There are many estimates of the number of jobs lost by Obama's illegal acts, but the 12,000 figure comes from Dr. Joseph Mason of Louisiana State University's report --
The Economic Cost of a Moratorium on Offshore Oil and Gas Exploration to the Gulf Region.
2. Obama's EPA Ban on West Virginia Coal Mining:In January of this year Obama attempted a back-door execution of his failed Global Warming tax scheme known as "Cap and Trade" when he had his Environmental Protection Administration rescind a perfectly valid mining permit for Arch Coal’s Spruce No.1 mine, effectively shutting down this lawful private sector enterprise in the name of fighting the urban myth known as global warming
3. Obama Endorses Offshore Windmill Manufacturer: Although it's hard to point to a specific number of jobs that were lost when Obama chose a Spanish "green company" to visit and endorse over it's American competitors, but as a former employee of a multinational corporation, I can tell you that all of this company's engineering, marketing, finance, accounting, and management were not US jobs
4. Obama Begs Brazil to Take Oil Industry Jobs Away From America: The president, on the first leg of his trip to Latin America, said in Brazil that his administration wants to assist the Brazilian government "with technology and support" in developing its oil reserves -- a black gold mine he said could hold twice as much oil as U.S. deposits. And then Obama said - "And when you're ready to start selling, we want to be one of your best customers"
5. Obama's Falsifies Charges in Attack on the Chamber of Commerce: During the 2010 congressional elections, Obama began attacking the greatest private sector employer association in America -- The US Chamber of Commerce.
From the Washington Post:"The White House intensified its attacks Sunday on the powerful U.S. Chamber of Commerce for its alleged ties to foreign donors, part of an escalating Democratic effort to link Republican allies with corporate and overseas interests."
6. Obama Sues Boeing: A few years ago, the workers at the Boeing plant in South Carolina
voted to decertify their union in an effort to entice Boeing to send work their way. A few week's ago, in an obvious payback to big labor, Obama sued Boeing to block their decision to move some 787 manufacturing to SC (see
Obama Sues Boeing).
7. Obama Pulls Shell's Oil Exploration Permits: In the midst of skyrocketing gasoline prices, Obama poked energy giant Shell in the eye by revoking their drilling permits in Alaska:
"Shell Oil Company has announced it must scrap efforts to drill for oil this summer in the Arctic Ocean off the northern coast of Alaska. The decision comes following a ruling by the EPA’s Environmental Appeals Board to withhold critical air permits. The move has angered some in Congress and triggered a flurry of legislation aimed at stripping the EPA of its oil drilling oversight."
Never mind the fact that this administration has openly warred on business. Never mind we have the highest corporate taxes in the world. Never mind that government intrusion and regulation have only gotten worse. Never mind that government has actively sought to block businesses which could make a world of difference in both jobs and competitiveness.
Never mind that our children are sent to "WAR" to supply us with "OIL."
