America's Foreign Affairs President?

No, but he obviously has an obsession on that whole Emperor, Messiah, Holiness thing, (since he's the only one that keeps harping on it.)... I'm beginning to think he's one of those preverts that calls up women with whips-and-chains on the weekends to get forced into some sort of bondage thing.

Less jobs were created than Americans in this time period and Obama was given the biggest stimulas package in history. And those few jobs created actually lowered the wage rate for the US. Almost any other president would have done a better job. Worst recovery ever remember? After four years you can no longer blame W without people laughing out loud at you and and Obama for his multiple failures domestically.

You need some new material... That one isn't working....

Jobs are paying less because Governor Outsourcing (or is it off-shoring?...I can never remember) and his ilk have been sending as many jobs as possible overseas, deliberately depressing the wages, and screwing unions, and trying to make more people work more for less for the last 12 years.

But it's always heartwarming to hear the stories that Bain Capital and RMoney were investing heavily for years in companies that "pioneered outsourcing to China, India, and other countries, while shuttering US companies" and getting rich off of the process.

Let me know when you have something new.

Outsourcing isn't the fault of government policy you economic uninformed. It is the result of other nations like China and India offering better manufacturing and services for lower costs. The US also still attracts European manufacturing because we offer lower labor costs and less regulation than France and Germany. But it is so much easier to blame evil corporations like Mother Jones tells you.

Then you admit it's not Obama's fault, and it's because of economic factors... Thanks... Good to know.

It also points up the fact that Mittens doesn't "create jobs", he outsources them, and puts the leveraged, created "wealth" in his pocket while screwing as many workers as he can.

No. Obama still has the power to destroy jobs. Denying Keystone. Attacking coal power. Denying Boeing a new plant in the Carolina's.

Boeing was penalized for trying to do an end-run around a legal contract... <bzzz> Thanks for playing.

Keystone? That's a laugh, and the "million jobs" number has been proven, on numerous occasions, to be a lie. MAYBE 4,000 temp jobs.. B.F.D. <bzzz> Thanks for playing.

Attacking coal-power? If demanding that regulations to stop polluting the air and water are considered "attacks", GOOD...So be it! Maybe the industry should try not killing its miners with safety violations, and not polluting the air/water with their garbage in the name of profits.

What else you got?

A complaint sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in January accused TransCanada of using “false or misleading statements about the proposed Keystone XL pipeline,” and “consistently used public statements and information it knows are false in a concerted effort to secure permitting approval of Keystone XL from the U.S. government” with claims the pipeline will create American jobs “at a rate that is 67 times higher than job creation totals given by the company to Canadian officials for the Canadian portion of the pipeline.” TransCanada admits the pipeline’s construction will create at best, a few thousand temporary jobs , and that the Canadian oil will be sold to China and Europe on the foreign market.

TransCanada also reported that instead of reducing fuel prices for Americans, it will increase them because the pipeline will drain off oil reserves as it passes over the Ogallala Aquifer that supplies drinking water to 2 million Americans and is the primary source of groundwater for 20% of America’s agriculture. The potential for environmental disaster is immense because another TransCanada pipeline spilled 12 times in one year, and two years ago in Michigan the Lakehead pipeline system ruptured; crews are still cleaning up the mess because instead of floating, tar sand oil sinks. Those are indisputable facts about the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, and still, Boehner continues assailing the President for not granting an immediate permit.

:Snooze

Oh, and...

It was reported here , here , and here that Boehner owns stock in seven Canadian tar sand companies and stands to make financial gains if the pipeline is built. Boehner’s financial disclosure shows he purchased stock in Canada’s tar sand companies in 2010, so it is no stretch of the imagination to assume he bought stock in time to profit from the pipeline’s construction, and it explains his rabid push to get it started.


Imagine my surprise.... :VeryScared: You need a new talking point--That one has been disproven so many times it's growing barnacles.

Spin. Actual facts. Airbus, a French company was approved to build a aircraft plant in the American south. In fact, welcomed. So the Obama administration showed favortism to a foreign firm over their American competitor. Yes, the French company is allowed to hire non-union employees but Boeing is hamstrung by old contracts. Sounds very fair.

Are you saying a contract is not a contract?

<crickets"...re: Coal industry, and Keystone? Your "pathetic"-meter is about to peg off the end of the scale....
