Congress is in Crisis as the GOP continues to obstruct the efforts of the President to not only to negotiate on the debt ceiling, but also on looking for other means to stimulate the economy.
For the month of June, only 18,000 jobs were created. This is way, way, below what was anticipated by the Obama administration. But increasingly, more government workers are laid across the country. And for the yet another time, Republicans are clearly obstructionists to the wishes of the American people who want to see more of us employed.
Yet the GOP is yet to fulfill their promise to create the jobs they talked about so eloquently during elections 2010. For yet another time, it would appear Obama, is saying: No We ant.
Not providing jobs expected will prove to be devastating not only to Obama’s base who looks to see him move to get the rich to pay more in taxes, but also to for his plans for re-election in 2012. Does his explanations help given he appears not ready to fully stand up the Republicans in Congress? Has he lost his muscle to fight back?
Obama is a pretty savvy politician and leader of the Democratic party. He knows fully what is at stake. So how do we interpret all that is coming out of Washington? Clearly, this lack of jobs wont help his chances to win next year, but lets think options to provided by a: Bachmann, Pawlenty, Nick Perry or Mitt Romney.
Options? We from America’s middle class have none.
Where does the answer lie as deficit spending becomes the mantra from Republicans, but no talks about jobs? Join the conversation.
Together lets send a message to Washington. Its time to fire Speaker John Boehner. Yes, preparations for 2012 begins now.
And the least objectionable, remains the Tea party members of the Republican party/incumbents/and the majority in the House.
