So where is the President's jobs plan?
Today, the President took to the podium again to tout his supposed jobs plan.
This time he appeared with a legislative prop in hand that was,
presumably, the bill itself. Despite his command (made at least a dozen
times) that Congress pass his bill, it's unclear how lawmakers are
supposed to do that without the actual bill. The President has claimed
Congress will have the bill this evening. Why wait to make it public if
it's already written down?
The President is running the risk of becoming his own parody. If anything, this administration has been a blatant illustration of what doesn't create jobs: 1) government spending 2) talking about government spending. Unfortunately, these are the only job creation tactics we've seen from this President.
