White House Hints at More Economic Speeches, Proposals Ahead

[clearvision]

FOX News:

In what could be a way of lowering expectations for next Thursday's big economic speech, aides to President Obama are privately spreading word that he will not present his entire jobs plan in his address to a Joint Session of Congress.

Aides say Thursday's speech will be part of a bigger plan the White House will roll out throughout the fall with the president hitting the road for speeches and town hall appearances. Aides have already confirmed that Obama will be traveling to California, Colorado, and Washington state for one three-day swing later this month that will include economic events as well as some fundraising.

The move could be a way to try and lower the stakes for Thursday's Joint Session appearance, but it could also be an attempt by the administration to show the president is trying to stay all over the economy heading into what will likely be an uphill re-election battle.

The economy is a wreck NOW, people need jobs NOW, but the "o" refuses to tell us "the answers" NOW. Kind of reinforces the idea that this is going to be the same old BS lines that we've been getting from the Hot Air Generator in Chief for over 4 years now.

 

One sure way to "lower expectations" would be to give up this ridiculous notion of a Joint Session.
