I thought our wonderful young president was going to focus like a laser on jobs now that healthcare is over with. Getting sick and tired of 10% unemployment. All the while the governments are growing by leaps and bounds.

I know this isn't scientific evidence, but I've seen a lot of Now Hiring signs lately where there were none before. Hopefully that is a good sign.

According to all the experts, including obama's "uniquely qualified" team, the UE is expected to hover around 10% this year. When all those that have dropped off the rolls come back into the job market (approx 2.3 million), I think it might go even higher.

Let's just clear the air with truth. The Failed Stimulus is a complete failure and a colossal waste of $1 Trillion plus - this fact will be a key issue in the fall.

His agenda looks something like this:

1. Healthcare
2. Make the country weaker by refusing to use nukes in self-defense.
3. Refuse to place troops at the Southwest border.
4. Amnesty
5. Cap and Tax
6. Government takeover of the financial industry.
7. Then maybe, just maybe he will focus on jobs, but I doubt it.

You forget the take over of two automakers and the banks.

He's been very busy for a year, busting the most unpopular piece of social legislation through the congress on a party line vote.
