After marching the United States of America off of a socialist cliff (to the tune of record deficits and dramatic increases in unemployment), U.S. President Barack Obama said Thursday that the private sector must lead in creating jobs.
What?
That’s right.
With a growing percentage of the American population displeased with his performance (or lack of performance) on economic issues, “The One” is paying a little bit of lip service to the capitalist system that he has spent most of his first year in office denigrating.
Of course, Obama’s plan for the private sector to “lead” involves nationalizing (or at the very least unionizing) the health care industry – and then paying for this massive expansion of government by raising taxes on the very people he expects to create new jobs.
Way to lead there, dude.
“We cannot hang back and hope for the best when we’ve seen the kinds of job losses that we’ve seen over the last year,” Obama said at a Jobs Summit in Washington D.C. “What I’m interested in is taking action right now to help businesses create jobs right now, in the near term.”
Wait a minute … Obama’s interested in “taking action right now?”
Forgive us for calling bullshit, but isn’t this the same sort of language we heard from Obama right before the Bolshevist Bailout was passed?
Yeah … look where that got us.

Love the way they passed the $250 stimulus to disabled and seniors, now they won’t get a raise for 2 years while cost of living will rise.
Dear God, between him & the Bush boobs there won’t be a U.S., as we love & have known, in a couple of years. Yeah, all presidents make mistakes and every administration, but this is frightening.
Maybe they ought to consider legalization of marijuana now, clear some folks out of prison in for it, especially SC.
Send some folks back to their country and let them get jobs there or change their government.

This has to be the most ironically stupid things I have ever heard…..
GEE..maybe instead of just running up a debt to make rich CEO’s richer.You could have a moratorium on income tax.Now that is a job creator
I cant believe people believe this socialist crap about how they are helping the poor…Helping the poor loose their jobs is more like it

Ignorant much? As I recall, those deficits and dramatic increases in unemployment primarily occurred from 2001 to 2009.

I will have to say that Mitt Romney has a good workable plan. That is more than our President has in mind. Maybe experiance does count when it comes to leading the free world.

You’ve got to be kidding, Heidi!
Mitt Romney is only different from Barack Obama in a matter of degree. In principle, they’re both fascist pigs.

Um, Romneycare was a “good, workable plan?”

I know you are full of spit and vinegar, but this rant is over the top. Save the nastiness for those that deserve it. Our President is the best thing we have had in 8 years, and is trying his best to help those who have less opportunity than you and I have. I am for helping others, not being mean and nasty. Too much hate is going to get wonderful people killed. Do not be a part of that. I am also sick of the lies that are being sreamed about the Dems. and our Pres.

What socialist cliff? Where is this socialist utopia of which you speak? Do you mean the bail-out of Wall Street for losing all that money invested in things that didn’t exist? Do you mean the ‘jobs program’ where young people can join the military to go to Afghanistan to continue the war that was started 8 years ago by a Republican? What have the poor which so many despise received from this new socialist utopia? The only people I can ascertain that have benefited have been the big banks, corporations and that car company. If you have proof of a socialist agenda that helps your hated poor brethren, please do tell. Otherwise, please stop using that catch-all phrase ‘socialist’ and ‘socialism’ when nothing has been done for the lower-income people. They haven’t received anything from the gift to Wall Street. It seems that ‘corporatocracy’ or ‘kleptocracy’ is a more appropriate epithet to apply to what’s happening today. ‘Socialism’ would actually benefit a lot of people if it gave them affordable housing, education and health services. No one is going to take anything away from those wonderful and honest CEOs who robbed and plundered and caused a world of hurt to the world.

Scooter and Heidi drink the same kool-aid….just different flavors.
This is the kind of dillusional people government schools and constant propaganda has given us.One from the, your not a patriot if you dont support attacking people camp..the other from the self loathing class haters, but we are brothers in socialism…We need to end this kind of ignorance now!!
