Obama: Pass jobs bill without 'division or delay'

I saw this headline is wondered, "What does he mean by 'division'?" Does he mean division between the parties that he is responsible for? Or does he mean division of his bill, meaning picking out the parts that will work and throwing away the rest? I suspect he means the latter. That's right, don't bother reading the bill. Barry says it's okay. Don't chop it up because it's perfect the way it stands. Hurry hurry hurry hurry. I think we heard that one with Obama Care, eh?

As I've said before, "infrastructure" spending will create UNION jobs for his friends in the AFL-CIO and Teamsters Union in 5 to 8 years, not anytime soon. Essentially this is another boondoggle, give-away program that won't work, hasn't worked in the past and will never work.

Obviously, Obama learned nothing from the Solyndra fiasco. Using taxpayer dollars to payoff political debts is both scurrilous as well as fraudulent. The way this is working out, everyone who contributed to Obama's election campaign is being paid back at a rate of $100o for every $1 donated.

But the real question is: Will this bill create jobs or simply create more money the administration can squander on useless projects that will quietly go bankrupt in 2 to 3 years? I suspect it's about raising money and has nothing to do with jobs at all.

The first "Stimulus Bill" created jobs at a cost of $5,000,000 per job created. At this rate the current bill will create an additional 89 jobs. Is that really worth while?

In his speech to the Joint Congress, Obama claimed over and over "everything in this bill has bi-partisan support." Does that include the bill that was voted down 2 years ago by the democratic House and Senate that would have closed loopholes for wealthy individuals? Does that include tax hikes that the Republicans will not stand for? Does that include raising taxes on small businesses that neither party will go along with?

Barry, stop lying and go back to the drawing board. Listen to what FDR said: "When it doesn't work, apologize and do something different." And you owe a HUGE apology to the American Tax Payer, and potentially a serious investigation for fraud and corruption.
