GOP could care less about jobs!

[taichiliberal]

Growth is not back. GDP increased by .3%, which is essentially no growth at all. No growth, no jobs. Pretty simple.
All of this is thanks to the policies of this administration and their allies in Congress. No amount of blaming ATMs, Republicans, typhoons in Japan or anything else will change that.

Companies are making record breaking profits and still are not hiring.

Funny thing is, they aren't citing any policies of the Obama administration as the reason...

Can you name any?

Contrary To GOP Claims, Small Businesses Say Taxes And Regulation Aren’t Holding Back Hiring

Regulations, taxes aren't killing small business, owners say | McClatchy

When challenged, change the subject. Good strategy until you get called on it.
Why aren't businesses hiring? Do you think they're just big meanies? Maybe they want to get back at Obama by leaving their money in bank accounts paying .01% interest instead of getting 20+% return on assets?
The articles you cite are cherry-picked and worthless.

She didn't change the subject, she just expanded the information that makes your myopic repetition pointless.

It's taken nearly 3 years for the President to come up with a jobs plan and yet it's the Republicans who could care less? I suppose they could care less. It's the President who couldn't care less.

Cons ran in 2010 on jobs, jobs, jobs. Yet they haven't introduced a single bill that would create jobs. They introduced a few limiting women's rights, however.

 

[The Rabbi]

Does anyone really think that this country will be awash in good paying jobs once Barry finishes reading off the teleprompter?
What is the likelihood of his saying anythng that he hasn't said before that will lead to job creation?
The only think he can say that would spur the economy is:
"I've really screwed up here. I resign. I am sorry, America."

Notice that all the other good little neocon/teabagger toadies, the Rabbi doesn't acknowledge the sheer hypocrisy of Boehners actions, but instead puts forth supposition and conjecture about an address that hasn't happened yet.

Fucking intellectual coward, our Rabbi.

There is no hypocrisy, Einstein. No one will be helped by Obama's speech. Not one job will be created as a result of it because he will offer nothing new. This is not conjecture. This is based on his past performance and remarks on Labor Day with the union thugs. So what is one day later, or one week or one year. Commandante Zero has had 3 years to work on this problem and he's done nothing substantive other than waste money.

Bullshit. They introduced and passed a resolution repealing Obamacare. That would create more jobs than Obama's stimulus.

You have got to love the TITLE the left has bestowed on the Obama.

Not only is he the President of the United States, but he is THE LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD

Wipe the foam from your mouth and pay attention, genius. The GOP wailed for months that the President doesn't have a job plan that is desperately needed...so the President says hey, I've got one, and I would like to a joint session address to tell it to you guys before you get down to business when you come back from vacation. And in the first time in nearly a century the Speaker of the House REJECTS the Presidents initial request to reschedule.

So evidently, jobs are not that much of a priority with the GOP. Remember bunky, it was Boehner that said if maintaining the Bush tax cuts means screwing off 200,000 federal jobs created, "so be it". His words, not mines or any liberals, Dems. or Progressives.

Deal with reality and grow the fuck up, Matthew.

Pure BS. The man hasnt had a plan for almost three years then suddenly he has one when something else was scheduled, like the opposition debate.

You were called out on the BS, but youre still whining like a little girl. Obama is a little bitch just like you.

Zero proof that the Affordable Care Act had anything to do with it.

Besides...I thought deficits and debt were what mattered most to ya'll... repealing it would add $200 billion to the deficit.

Yes, they did. The only conclusion is that the entire movement that elected Obama is the culprit that could care less about jobs--not the GOP.

This entire thread is an exercise in projection, that is the political tool the left most often uses to take its primary fault and ascribe it to a bystander, in this case their rival, the GOP, who definitely does care about generating jobs in this country that pay for themselves, not government guaranteed jobs given to party supporters who often care so little about the people they take salaries from they let them stand in line all day for basic government services, such as paying taxes.

It's a national scandal.

The Congressional Budget Office

The CBO Rebuts Republican Claims About the Affordable Care Act

http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/120xx/doc12040/01-06-PPACA_Repeal.pdf

CBO has not yet developed a detailed estimate of the budgetary impact of repealing that legislation, although it is working with the staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) to complete such an estimate in the near future.

Because Congressional deliberations on H.R. 2 could begin very soon, CBO is providing in this letter a less-detailed preliminary analysis of that legislation.

Your number, claiming it came from the CBO... $200 billion.

There 'guesstimate'?

As a result of changes in direct spending and revenues, CBO expects that enacting H.R. 2 would probably increase federal budget deficits over the 2012–2019 period by a total of roughly $145 billion, plus or minus the effects of technical and economic changes that CBO and JCT will include in the forthcoming estimate.

Your own cited source doesn't agree with you.

More on their 'guesstimate'...

The forthcoming, more-detailed estimate will also reflect changes that CBO
and JCT will make to reflect economic developments since the legislation was enacted and technical revisions to baseline projections and the previous estimate (including adjustments to reflect the passage of time and to incorporate the effects of administrative actions that have been taken to implement the laws). We cannot predict whether those changes will increase or decrease the estimated impact of H.R. 2 on federal deficits.

and a little more on their 'guesstimate'...

The projections of the bill’s budgetary impact are quite uncertain, both because CBO has not completed a detailed estimate of the effects of H.R. 2 and because assessing the effects of making broad changes in the nation’s health care and health insurance
systems—or of reversing scheduled changes—requires assumptions about a broad array of technical, behavioral, and economic factors. However, CBO’s staff, in consultation with outside experts, has devoted a great deal of care and effort to the analysis of health care legislation in the past few years, and the agency strives to develop estimates that are in the middle of the distribution of possible outcomes. As a result, CBO believes that its
estimates of the net budgetary effects of health care legislation have a roughly equal chance of turning out to be too high or too low.

Essentially... the report you got your number from (via a link, to a link, to the report) goes to great lengths to explain that it is a guess, and could be much higher or much lower... AND it doesn't even match the $200 billion number you claimed you got FROM it.

You might want to actually read the report itself, instead of a link, to a link, to the report, next time.

Nice try at a deflection of your complete failure to actually READ the report from the CBO you claimed to have gotten your $200 billion figure from. You're getting sloppy.

Notice how, when I showed that the number he claimed came from the CBO wasn't even in the report he claimed it came from, he switched tacks?

Typical liberal. Prove they didn't even bother reading past a headline, and they try to deflect and change the subject, rather than admit their abysmal failure to read their own cited sources.

[Oldstyle]

So on the FIRST DAY that the Congress and Senate come back from vacation, the President wants to schedule a joint session to address them on his new proposed plan for creating jobs in America ASAP.

The President submits the formal request to the Majority Speaker of the House of Representatives....and about 4 hours later is told that ANOTHER time would be more convenient due to "security arrangement" matters and the like.

Since the early 1900's when President's started making actual visits to the House to address them, NO PRESIDENT'S REQUEST HAS EVER BEEN DENIED UNTIL NOW.

Interesting that the very political party that has been wailing for months that they are waiting for the President to present a plan for jobs in America SUDDENLY can't fit the President of the USA in for a quick address.

Now if one is to believe the GOP's favorite pundit Rush Limbaugh, Speaker Boehner rejected the initial request date in order to put Obama "in his place" and not let the President have the upper hand as taking a leadership position....especially since it would coincide with the first scheduled GOP Presidential candidacy debate.

This is just another example to the American people that the GOP is NOT about the general welfare of the people, but about the corporate welfare and secured economic greed of the wealthiest 1 to 3% of the population.

No, this is another example of a White House more interested in running for reelection than it is in fixing our fiscal problems. Try not be completely naive about why Barack Obama chose that night and that time. It's quite obvious that he was trying to upstage the Republican debate. Boehner said no, as is his right as the Speaker of the House. Obama will be able to address the nation on Thursday rather than Wednesday, a delay of 24 hours for a speech that has been two and a half YEARS in coming.

What's most amusing about all of your faux outrage at the way President Obama has been treated, is that he's already furiously back pedaling on the content of this upcoming speech, putting out the word that Thursday's speech is just "part" of his jobs plan and that the rest would be coming some time in the Fall. I guess they didn't have time to get all of it done...what with the golf and going out to dinner stuff getting in the way. So he's called a Joint Session of Congress...something done under the rarest of circumstances to give us all a "partial" plan for jobs?

What's even more amusing is that on Friday you'll be back here trying to defend the pathetic excuse for a plan he DOES put forth, while parroting the new 2012 progressive mantra..."it's not our fault...they wouldn't let us get anything done..." which is laughable since the Democrats had super majorities and chose to pass the Obama stimulus instead of a plan that would have REALLY addressed long term unemployment in the country.
