Obama and Dems think unemployment stimulates the economy and conveniences like bank ATMS and airport kiosks hurt the economy, who would even want to listen to these idiots? Just STFU until you're all booted out in Nov 2012
I couldn't agree more.

Our leaders are all employed and well taken care of.
They're about the only people left in the USA whose jobs are not easily shipped off shore or cut due to government roll-backs.
Small wonder the whole issue of jobs isn't big on their agenda.
Now that I can agree on. We the People need to kick BOTH parties in the ass.
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.

MATTHEW....Personally, I'm a Centrist. I believe in elements of both sides. Just not extremes of either.
However, socialism isn't a step toward communism. Most of the European nations are socialist, yet the public is free to vote for whom they please. They can also own property and become rich. It's just that because their governments are socialist in nature, the public has a safety-net, should they need it. I see nothing wrong with ensuring that your people are taken care of. Afterall, they've supported their governments all their lives. Once elderly or unable to do, it is only fair that their government support them.
For the US, I believe in social security and medicare. If you've worked all your life supporting the capitalist system, I don't think it's asking too much for the government to return the favor when you are unable to do so, or having difficulty taking care of yourself. All people in their nation, should have access to health care, nutritious food and a clean, comfortable place to sleep. To not believe so, is to be less than human.
1. Social Security is not the governments money, it's not a slush fund. It's the peoples who contributed to it.Afterall, they've supported their governments all their lives. Once elderly or unable to do, it is only fair that their government support them.
GOP could care less about jobs!

Citizen legislature...Term limits.

But you're not greedy, of course, when you expect to have a piece of the wealth owned by the top 1 to 3% of the population even though you didn't lift a finger to earn it, right?
Its not that the GOP couldnt care less about jobs pre se, the issue is more of timing: republicans want Americans to go back to work when its politically advantageous to them, not Obama.

This President has experienced more unprecedented actions by the opposition party than any in history. More cloture's, more filibusters, more blocked appointments and more just plain douchiness than any other. No President had a member of Congress call him a liar on the floor while he was addressing them. No President has ever had the debt ceiling held hostage to ideological demands...and on and on and on.
Not even Bill Clinton, who I thought the right hated with the heat of a thousand white hot suns, had to put up with the kind of crap President Obama has had to put up with.
What is it about this President I wonder?

1. The top 3% don't pay taxes. Only "little people pay taxes". Even Buffett acknowledges that he pays a lower tax rate than his secretary. Not to mention the off-shore tax shelters and all the tax loop-holes.
Add to that the 14,000 factories they moved overseas whereby the US manufacturing segment went from 28% to 12% taking all those 3m jobs with them. The middle-class has a right to be pissed when the wealthy fuck them over.

Growth is back, but not jobs...
Where are the jobs????
Growth is back, but not jobs...
Where are the jobs????
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.
Why do you suppose the factories moved outside of the control of the EPA, the IRS and the Washington elite? As far as I know, they are still hiring people and paying them money and creating products for sale.
Were the rich doing something bad for the middle class in this migration or was the climate of investment growing bad here and better elsewhere?
Were the rich going out of their way to help the middle class during the 50 years after WW2? Do you think about this stuff before you write it?
Now a true leader, like the Castro of old, would have frog-marched them all into session.
Which only goes to prove that Our Kenyan President is ineducable.
