The other problem for the GOP congress is that their standard refrain, cut taxes cut taxes cut taxes,
got co-opted by Obama when he (foolishly) agreed to go along with their budget busting tax bill.
Why do you think they're talking about abortion? Because after tax cuts, what else do they have ?
gop congress? you mean house.
why yes indeed, 12 month in and in charge of just one of the 3 levers, they will do what obama and a supra majority could not ( with the help of over a trillion dollars ) do for a year and a non supra majority for 2, create jobs....this is so disingenuous I can scarcely believe you folks even pose this as a serious topic for conversation......
and I guess you need a reminder too;
President Obama pivots to jobs as key theme

President Barack Obama on Friday made his promised hard pivot to jobs, following up the morning’s news about a 10 percent unemployment rate by announcing $2.3 billion in tax credits for clean-energy jobs.
“We have to continue to work every single day to get our economy moving again. For most Americans, for me, that means jobs,” Obama said.
“The job losses for the last quarter of 2009 were one-tenth of what we were experiencing the first quarter,” the president said. “The Recovery Act has been a major force in breaking the trajectory of this recession.”
The White House said that 183 projects in 43 states will create “tens of thousands of high quality clean energy jobs.” And the administration promised that the result of the new money would be domestic manufacturing of advanced clean energy technologies including solar, wind and efficiency and energy management technologies.
