How is not voting for a second stimulous bad? Remember when that said stimulous would keep unemployment under 8%?? Nah of course you swooners don't.

Fact is this whole bill was written to get republicans to NOT vote for it. This is the game Obama is playing and you swooners eat it up like candy. Yeah but only HE cares about jobs. LOL. Of course he does when he's not hanging out with his basketball buddies on strike or out working on his putting or an elaborate trip to keep meechele from beeching at him.

It's scary to see people applauding the circumvention of our Constitution because of partisan BS.

????????

And the previous stimulus did what?

Listen to Herman Cain. He has more executive experience than a community organizer and has real plans to jump start the economy. Obama's "jobs bill" was a cynical attempt to boost his re-election prospects, nothing more. Even his fellow democrats realize this and distanced themselves from this pork spending program to reward political cronies.

The Obama administration will go down in history as the most incompetent and corrupt presidential administrations in US history. He makes Warren Harding and Grant look competent and clean.

Obamacare

The Dream Act

War in Libya

There was no need to involve congress in enacting any of the above. Why should this be any different?

The Republican's would rather see this country go down in flames than see the Obama/Democrat administration succeed. I am disgusted with the way the Republicans are holding this country hostage for their own party line agenda.....it is outright disgusting and anti-American.
Sounds like you'd enjoy living in China or perhaps Iran, you know some place where the leaders can just dictate what they think is "best" for the country and not bother with those pesky citizens who have a different view of what is "best" for the country.

Sadly, I don't think that is something most of the sheeple are willing to recognize.

The bill grows the government buruecracy, creates a private government owned taxpayer funded infrastructure bank, and gives a huge payback to the Obama bundler who is the major investor in LightSquared as well as attempting to have states surrender Constitutionally affirmed rights.

What parts of that have anything to do with 'jobs' ?

Have you even read the entire text of Obama's porkulous part III?

I think some do and support him for that. You can tell from Obama's own words in his past, that he is not very high on the Constitution. He, like many on the far left, see it as a largely flawed piece of paper.

If you look at Obama's up bringing, the little we do know (know thanks to the media), the only conclusion for him studying that type of law is to find a way to circumvent it. His past, the people who influenced him, his grandparents, his father, mother, college circle all point to a man who takes issue with this country. It's really as clear as day. Nearly all of his influences growing up were by those who are against America's way of life, the founding fathers, the Constitution. They all find fault with this country and vow to transform it.

But you are right in that there are many who dont know this. They dont have a clue on Obama's upbringing and who influenced him to be the man he is today. Now sure, someone can not always be held accountable for things they did and said when they were younger. However, he has never changed his ways of thinking, with the one exception. He miraculously flip flopped big time on dealing with terrorists, though he really isnt going to admit it. He's done a good job in many aspects as far as that goes.

And so far he's succeeded.
We've been at war with Libya since May and wimpy Congress has done nothing. And the money we don't have flows anyway.

Where are the war protesters? Why the loss of interest in protesting wars? Is it because Obama is in office, so that makes war okay now?
