I guess that repeated excuse wears a little thin when one controls the House and Senate with super majorities.

He can do whatever he wants. The problem is that he DOES NOT WANT reduced unemployment. Obama wants the unemployed as a group of government dependents that will be forced to support him for thier existence.

What will Barry's next two objectives be?

1. Amnesty for illegals
2. Cap and trade

Both provisions kill jobs further, as the healthcare bill will. What do they accomplish? Further government control and a larger democratic constituency. Make no mistake of it- Barry is opposed to America as we know it and is only interested in expanding his power. The people be damned.

He doesn't have to try too hard. All he has to do is go on TV with "a promise" and the masses rejoice. None bother to read bills and see the rest.

Look at the stimulus, look at the jobs bill, look at HC.
And people still think they will pay no new taxes.

One thing that needs to be kept in mind is that a good chunk of the jobs that we lost should have never been created in the first place and they aren't coming back. Our best bet is a long-term strategy that puts emphasis on science, technology, engineering, etc., but of course that doesn't score short-term political points.

Too difficult so he has moved on to things near and dear to his heart. Jobs for people are so second tier issues for the Obama Adminisration.

Like another poster said it will go in order:

1. Universal Nightmare
2. Amnestly for 12 million people who broke the law.
3. Cap and Tax
4. continuing to cause the loss of jobs with ridiculous mandates and taxes.
5. forcing everyone to sign up for government assistance so he can be our first dictator.
6. China starts dumping our debt.
7. Then finally he might decide to stop being a jerk and decide that maybe his critics are right.

He won't. Ever. Anyone that thinks otherwise is well, Liberal. It's just not in his puppet master's agenda.

What ever happened to the great American Spirit? People have become apathetic and apparently, the people who are soooo against government intrusion in their lives are now sitting back complaining that the government isn't creating jobs for them.

People have...haven't you noticed all of them?
But you have to know a lot about the business you're going to be in, to be competitive and be successful.
Right now, everyone is cutting budgets, streamlining, downsizing, and unless your product or service is really absolutely needed, you might not make it. So the market is tight.

People haven't become apathetic. They don't have the money, are struggling to get by.

If you watched the tea parties and rallies, you'd know that Americans are not apathetic. But any time they raise their voice, the media says they are violent, or they don't know anything and are uninformed (sic), or it's simply the GOP.

There are more than 12 million illegal aliens here. Estimates put the figure about 30 million.
