Today at the unemployment office there were three less people in line at opening hour.
Either those people were watching 'The View' or perhaps playing on the X-Box, I don't know........maybe they slept late.
At closing the line grew by several hundred people. When I asked them they all told me their evil Republican ex-bosses had fired/layed off/furloughed/just sent packin' - ALL for no reason.
Republican attempt to kill the economy with the debt limit fiasco didn't work... Jobs are up despite the Republicans work to make America fail...
President Obama is slowly but surely pulling America back from the brink. That takes a strong, confident leader with great vision and that is why he gets my vote in 2012

I've always found it quite ironic that the same people (especially the poor White and working class) complaining about President Obama and job creation stood by impotently and cheered on the Republicans and Corporate America as American jobs were shipped to Mexico, the Phillipines, India, Bangladesh, China, Sri Lanka and other points unknown all for the sake of short term profits by cutting their labor costs from liveable wages to slave wages. So how did these American companies think that these jobless American people (who they laid off to reap profits from cheap foreign labor) could continue to afford to buy their products without jobs?
This is the mentality of the Republican party in a nutshell. Then they turn around an attempt to blame Blacks, Hispanics, gays, Muslims, President Obama, anyone with a (D) after their name, Ryan Seacrest, Buddha, the Pink Panther, Casey Anthony and anyone else that they hate for tanking the economy.

Wow...throw the race card.........
Now, how many new regulations did the obama team put into law last month?
what happens....75% of the stimulus money for 'alternate energy' goes to FOREIGN COMPANIES
well what about the other 25%......for every 1 green job created..2 'non-green' jobs lost
and new REGULATIONS (especially from the EPA) hurt business and HIRING

Federal agencies, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) most prominent among them, continue proposing new rules that drive up business costs and discourage employers from putting Americans back to work.
federal agencies issued 43 major new rules increasing regulatory burdens in Fiscal Year 2010. The total costs of these rules – as estimated by the regulators –exceeded $26.5 billion. That's the highest single-year cost recorded since 1981, the first year for which records are available.
Many of these new regulations would dramatically increase compliance costs, assuming the proposed new standards are even technically attainable. Such new requirements would encourage many businesses, including small businesses with millions of high-wage employees, to curtail operations rather than make investments that could offer no economic return.
Investment capital would then naturally migrate to lower-cost locations where regulations are less burdensome. The American worker gets left behind
Manufacturers have also been alarmed by two proposals that have generated less public attention but could still wreak economic damage: lower limits on ground-level ozone and emissions controls on industrial boilers.
New rules for ozone would supersede lower emission limits adopted just two years ago, with compliance costs that EPA acknowledges could near $190 billion annually by 2020. Democratic and Republican senators and governors from industrial states have criticized this rulemaking as a "financial and regulatory burden" that would "create additional barriers to job creation and industry growth."
Industrial boilers play a critical role in our economy, generating power for companies large and small, as well as municipalities and universities. The EPA has proposed dramatic new rules that skirt cost-benefit analysis and would be impossible for many existing facilities even to meet. The forest products industry, which makes extensive use of boiler-generated energy, would be hit especially hard, facing estimated costs of $14 billion.
None of our international competitors confronts standards such as these, which will only drive more jobs offshore. Industry studies demonstrate that hundreds of thousands of jobs may be at risk if this rule is adopted. The Administration's own Commerce Department has produced a study that concludes the draft rule could cost the United States 60,000 to 90,000 jobs a year.

liberals are the anti-job party
Yeah, we could have a repeat of 2008/2009 years when the GOP rolled over and did whatever Democrts wanted. Woo hoo, doesnt that sound wonderful...
yeah, its the polls all wrong, cant possibly be people like you who are, right?
The polls have been clear, the primary issue was jobs, is jobs and will be jobs. No matter how much the GOP tried to change it to spending, it is still jobs.

Obama is not the "private sector" ..
The government can't produce anything so in turn, it cannot create jobs ..
The 99 week benefits are expiring .. all of the free government money is going away .. people are now actually "forced" to go back to work ..
Obama encouraged the high unemployment rate by passing out free money ..
The paid government vacation is over .. time to get back to work.
Just imagine for a moment .. how many more people would have been working 18 months ago if the government hadn't paid them to sit at home and do nothing ..
Our economy would be in much better shape by now if the government would have stayed completely out of it from the beginning.
