What They Won’t Talk About at the White House Jobs Summit
by The New LedgerSo the President holds a jobs summit, but doesn’t invite the biggest actual producers of jobs — instead stacking the deck with people who believe there just hasn’t been enough government reallocation of taxpayer money. We’ll talk about the summit and the latest details of upheaval at General Motors in today’s edition of Coffee and Markets, a daily podcast from The New Ledger on politics, policy and the marketplace with Francis Cianfrocca, brought to you by BigGovernment.com.

OKAY ! I got it…. This is a summit that DOES NOT include the nations job creators or impartial business models that foster free enterprise and technological innovation. Like, perhaps, the Chamber of Commerce, The Small Business Independants, or entrepreneural research groups. So it is NOT about JOB CREATION !
The invitees are the SEIU, the AFT, union representatives, the lowly academe and other leftist JOB KILLING influences that drive the laissez-faire economy into the ground resulting in HIGHER UNEMPLOYMENT ! Makes sense if you are a Marxist/Socialist !
WAKE UP OR BLOOD WILL SHOOT OUTTA MY EYES !
Suggestion. Getting rid of 2 union jobs can create enough money to form 3 non union jobs. Is that social justice or what?
The unions create jobs, except for janitors and orderlies, the jobs are over seas.
GREAT idea! Let's get is done!
Again, lack of experience, lack of leadership, lack of common sense, lack of knowledge…LACK OF JOBS!
I like the idea. American Unions are the greatest job creators in China!
Hope and Change!
Thanks Barry!
Barry, people are watching you and ……………..laughing! You are a joke, here in America and the rest of the world.
Barrack Hussein has declared economic jihad against America.
Good news everyone BBBB…Biden is standing behind Barry at the three letter word summit “jobs.” See, and we were worried that there would be no one with any business experience there.
They won't talk about real jobs.
The only thing Government knows how to create is more government. I dont know how many private sector jobs it takes to create enough tax revenue to support one useless government leech after you factor out the give aways and other costs, but I would suspect on average 20:1 ?
Despite what they say it's what they do that matters. If they don't curb the unemployment this job summit will be another nail in the administrations coffin and a punch line in a joke.
I have little doubt that unemployment will continue and the Barry's numbers will head down again and again and again unless he gives up the leftist none sense, and that is about as likely as Al Gore saying he made a mistake about AGW.
I have been listening to the jobs summit reporting…. A farce and a joke… ObamaPOS is blaming the SMALL BUSINESSMEN for the unemployment rate by NOT hiring more workers in these tough economic times ! The targeting of us business people is escalating in his imbecilic attempt to drive a wedge and blame the very people who CREATE the jobs… CLASS WARFARE ! Emerson has it right !
Psssssst ! Hey presidentPOS…. Lower taxes and untie our hands from ridiculous regulations. The sad thing is you KNOW what you are doing will destroy the private economic sector. Right according to the communist plan. You haven't a clue as to the backlash building against you and your ilk. Keep on truckin' you worthless POS. Soon we will be back in control of the House and you will return to being the Wookie's little strap boy. (grin).
This man has never worked a real job in his life. He was at college (gov handouts), then a Community Organizer – advocator vis a vis not a worker (gov handouts), then Senator (gov paying job) for a few years. All he knows is what he was taught at Harvard and the Saul Alinsky's Marxist IAF. I can't help but think it's deliberate because he can't be that stupid. His halo is becoming tarnished with his uber-leftie base. He's in big trouble.
Another little tidbit for you, Annie…. In comparison to presidents dating back to Wilson as to the percentage makeup of the administration regarding work experience in the private sector…. Eisenhower held the highest at 59% of his administration had experience (jobs) privately and Bush 43 had an average of 53%. Are ya ready ?
The ObamaPOS and his communist minions have a TOTAL of 9% experience in the private sector ! Yes NINE PERCENT ! No secrets now…. This man MUST be removed or his financial ballz cut in November 2010.
You fools are just as bad as the liberals who claimed that Bush orchestrated 9/11.
The conservatives profited off 9/11, the liberals will profit from global warming. They're all crooked and you're all fucking retarded for picking sides when clearly ALL of these politicians are in the wrong.
It doesn't matter if they lean to the left or the right, they all have the same things in common. They are money hungry and none of them give a shit about any of you.
Enjoy being slaves to your party affiliations! Have a nice day slappies!
Its been a long times since this report come out, I was wondering what happen now.
