    …they spoke of — they whole time they spoke “jobs”?

    As Unemployment Rises, White House Waves White Flag On Creating Jobs…

    Obama?s National Economic Council Director Larry Summers ?Predicts Perpetually High Unemployment.? ?White House adviser Larry Summers on Friday predicted that past employment rates will not return after the recession passes. ?The best way to put it is this: Forty years ago, one in 20 men [ages] 25 to 54, in America, was not working at a given point in time,? he said. ?Today, the number is not one in 20. It?s one in five. And a good guess, based on extrapolations of trends in this area, is that when the economy recovers, five years from now, assuming we return to normal cyclical conditions, one in six men who are 25 to 54 will not be working at any point in time.?? (Jay Heflin, ?Summers Predicts Perpetually High Unemployment,? The Hill, 4/30/10)

    Obama?s Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner Says Unemployment Will ?Stay Unacceptably High For A Long Period Of Time.? (NBC?s ?Today Show,? 4/1/10)

    Obama?s Council Of Economic Advisers Chair Christina Romer Says Current Economic Growth ?Not Enough To Get A Lot Of Job Growth.? ?We still have some trouble with debt and credit availability. All of that makes it harder for us to grow ? most of the forecasts are that we?ll grow about 3% real GDP ? That?s not enough to get a lot of job growth.? (NBC?s ?Meet The Press,? 4/4/10)

    And Obama?s Economic Recovery Board Chair Says That ?Unemployment Will Be Too High For Far Too Long.? ?Now a special adviser to President Barack Obama, Volcker added that Americans also need to be prepared for a ?long slog? before the economy begins to re-engage. ?Unemployment will be too high for far too long,? he said.? (Jo Mannies, ?Volcker Predicts Economic Recovery Will Be ?Long Slog,?? The St. Louis Beacon, 5/4/10)

    I’m also a woman. I can’t do construction jobs.

    How many jobs did he say this would create?

    for doing exactly what I exclaim to any Two Americans who will listen. Using the very homilies that Barry continually spouts, is a no-brainer.( Not saying in any way YOU are a N B). But this tactic is not used nearly enough, in our fight to oust this travesty/caricature of a *Leader*. If He never shuts-up, he hands us an endless supply of reasons, to not re-elect him.
    Pick a topic, most any topic, and I am quite sure you could achieve similar outcomes, with only eyestrain as a debit. So where are Reince and the Nat’l GOP, or any number of think tanks using this scenario? {Wondering:} Is this kinda’ what John, The Baptist felt at times of crisis?
    I’m on The Bridge,sir. Ya’ don’t have to look too far. How about one of these, with different topics, at regular intervals? A library of same would really go far, and benefit many who stand with you.
    What Could it Hoit?

    Really? Like, maybe the folks over in MoonBat-ville aren’t too happy with “Dear Leader”? All I can tell them is – get in line! I think the ONLY way we’re going to get any type of recovery is to send Mr. Obama to the unemployment line.
