Milwaukee (AP) - A combative President Barack Obama rolled out a long-term jobs program Monday that would exceed $50 billion to rebuild roads, railways and runways, and coupled it with a blunt campaign-season assault on Republicans for causing Americans' hard economic times.

GOP leaders instantly assailed Obama's proposal as an ineffective one that would simply raise already excessive federal spending. Many congressional Democrats are also likely to be reluctant to boost expenditures and increase federal deficits just weeks before elections that will determine control of Congress.

Jim Manley, spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, cautioned, "If we are going to get anything done, Republican cooperation, which has been all but non-existent recently, will be necessary."

That left the plan with low, if not impossible, odds of becoming law this year. When Congress returns from summer recess in mid-September, it is likely to remain in session for only a few weeks before lawmakers return home to campaign for re-election.

Administration officials said that even if Congress quickly approved the program, it would not produce jobs until sometime next year. That means the proposal's only pre-election impact may be a political one as the White House tries to demonstrate to voters that it is working to boost the economy and create jobs.

At a Labor Day speech in Milwaukee, Obama said Republicans are betting that between now and the Nov. 2 elections, Americans will forget the Republican economic policies that led to the recession. He said Republicans have opposed virtually everything he has done to help the economy, and have proposed solutions that have only made the problem worse.

In the words of one of the hottest women ever, Shania Twain: "Don't be stupid".

 

Unfortunately, Obambi failed to heed Shania's words(not surprising since he's arrogant and completely tone-deaf to reality), and totally stepped in it. This is just what the GOP and Tea Party base needed to REALLY fire them up for November 2.

This is all over the right wing blog this morning.

 

As for "Don't be stupid", I'm not quite sure he knows how.

 

I wonder if he was ever really criticized strongly until he became President.

Bill Clinton would never have said anything like this is public...he probably thought it, but never would say it outloud.

[Geee]

Valin, that is further down in the article. An interesting turn of words, because as someone on another forum pointed out-being a dog is a Muslim insulting term

Valin Geee

 

The normal adult gets nauseated at Obama's campaigning mode and voice at these rallies.

 

Obama thrives on these audience hanger-on like a pathogenic E. coli germ outside of its normal habitat, the large intestine.

King Bubba was a sexual pervert, but even he knew when to keep his mouth shut, something this Pinko Commie will never learn, which is why he is going to be a 1-termer who will be regarded as worse than Jimmy Carter. Clinton had Dick Morris to steer him towards the center after the '94 disaster.

 

Who does Obambi have? Dave Axelrod and Valerie Jarret? Are you kidding me? Even Rahm Emmanuel is about to bail on this Titanic.
