If you start phrasing things a little less... partisan, I'll take it more seriously.
it is not a ridiculous statement and it is not partisan. it just so happens that a democratic president is doing this, but it could have been a republican as we found out with bush. if you implement policies that only hurt american workers and exempt other countries from these policies, you are (whether on purpose or not) sabotaging the american worker. we do not have a big enough manufacturing base to have more roadblocks thrown in the way of manufacturing. what would even be the point of doing that????
either obama has not thought things through or he is deliberately trying to sabotage american workers.
the government has just taken over GM and yet has plans to enact cap and trade. when you are trying (if you are actually trying) to get car manufacturing back up and running on the backs of american taxpayers, why on earth would you institute a tax on american business THAT THE REST OF THE WORLD IS EXEMPT FROM? why would you implement a new tax that is specific to american industry and now also specific to the american taxpayer.
also, if you state that housing is the root of the problem why on earth would you consider more bailouts (california is being considered for a bailout) and also keep printing money, when you know that the net effect of all of this money printing would be increasing inflation, leading to hyperinflation, as well as higher interest rates for home purchase. that would help restrict the ability of any working american to be in a position to buy a house and help mop up the housing reserve, not to mention that a lot more houses will go into foreclosure!
WTH!
the real hurt came from Bush when signed a the Tax Break policy for U.S. businesses outsourcing our jobs off-shore.

Bull sh--!
You must not understand how business works.
I was able to hire more people under his tax cuts and so was many others.
Watch this moron Obama go to work, he wants no US manufacturing jobs at all and will do whatever he can to destroy any business that does not follow his little corrupt ways of operating.
Then the idiot want to raise min wage again when those min wage workers are not even worth 5.00 per hour to begin with.
Obama wants to over tax business and it will cause massive layoffs and closings of tons of businesses.
He is an economic disaster.
Grow up and stop talking until you own a business and understand how it works.
My business thrived under Bush and I was able to sell it for a ton of money thanks to Bush, I was going downhill under Clinton because of his rotten tax policies.
The ability so spout some psuedo-intellectual nonsense does not an economist make.
Gosh, just imagine if some of the EXPERTS on this forum were running the country. Everything would be automagically fixed! Darn those little buggers for keeping the secrets from our government! I mean, how selfish of them to keep this valuable info to themselves!
Yeah, my knick-knack and doily sales on eBay are hurting and IT'S ALL OBAMA'S FAULT!
It's got nothing to do with that fact that ultra-rich conservatives outsourced 90% of our manufacturing base to foreign countries! Traded in the economic future of our country for short term profits, and many of them even failed at that.
