I'm tired of hearing all of the lies. Austin Goolsbee said on Fox News Sunday this morning that when the VP said this would be the Summer of Recovery...he actually meant in so many words that it was just a slogan . He meant the jobs they intended on creating would be labeled recovery jobs not that there would be an actual recovery. I bet we can find hundreds of videos that would prove this is a bold-faced lie.
He spent the entire interview telling Chris Wallace that all of the negative news didn't mean what it appeared. I really couldn't believe anything the guy said. He's was just spinning the hell out of the economic indicators trying desperately to illuminate the silver-lining beneath the dark cloud of a very poor economy. It came across as being extremely dishonest. All one needs to do is listen to Obama or in this case his senior adviser moonwalk his way through a serious interview dodging questions and monopolizing the interview in an attempt not to answer questions....is there any wonder there is a lack of confidence in the direction this country is going. The job losses in this country can be directly attributed to a lack of confidence...not the so-called "Failed policies of the Bush Administration".
First of all Goolsbee is being called the "NEW" senior economic adviser...but Goolsbee has always been Obama's closest adviser on economics from the very beginning...as early as 2004. He is the man behind Obama's economic plan. The Man Behind Obama's Economic Plan : NPR
Okay...he's on leave from the University of Chicago to run our economic policy. The last person filling this position was also a university professor.
Do you want college professors running the economy? People that never have run a business in their lives. That's insane.
If you remember in 08' Goolsbee was the go-between to Canada when Obama was bashing NAFTA yet Goolsbee was telling the Canadian government not to worry....it's all an act. Now today Goolsbee is telling us that the Summer of Recovery claim was just an act as well.
Is this the kind of person you want running our economic policy? Someone who doesn't believe in being up front and honest about the real direction this country is going? I personally believe our government should say what they mean and mean what they say. Is that too much to ask?
Oh...and just for your information Goolsbee is also a member of the infamous Skull And Bones Society. Other notables like John F. Kerry and George W. Bush are also members. Talk about being part of the establishment...
