Senate Republicans likely to kill Obama jobs bill

[trenchfoot]

And the Repubs are stuck with trumpeting the same tired, worn out failed ideological "stimulative ideas" that oversaw and was one of the main reasons why one of the worst economic downturns in the nation's history occurred: cut taxes for the rich and deregulate. Boy oh boy, that really worked exactly as planned.....for the rich and big businesses....and ONLY for the rich and big businesses, at the expense of the working class and the poor.

And look at the latest talking points coming from the Repubs:

"Don't blame the rich, blame yourselves". - So the "have's" that's been busily corrupting our politicians and skewing every economic angle they can tweak their way by using their money and their influence to create even more money and influence have now securely positioned themselves to be able to say "don't blame the rich, blame yourselves". Yeah, that makes a good argument for why the economy looks the way it does. It really does, doesn't it? Points the finger right at the cause of it.

"The Dems have started class warfare against the rich" - HA ha! The rich have been at war with the working class since Reagan took office and now.....and NOW they have the gall to accuse those that they have long been at war with of the same tactic they've been using to take control of the gov't so as to use the gov't itself against the very people it was meant to protect. The very rich have been practicing this legal form of tyranny of theirs against the working class for the longest time to the point where to them, hey, "it's just the way things are supposed to be". Their rhetoric and actions of late is direct evidence of this attitude.

I could go on and on with the laughable drivel the Repub spin machine have been generating of late, but the real reason all of these weak arguments have been cropping up is simply this: Taking care of the rich first and above all by cutting their taxes, by deregulating their businesses and by letting them corrupt-to-own the gov't has proved beyond doubt that this ideology they have been operating under is devastating to the health of the nation. Ergo, weak excuses, deflection, disinformation and disingenuous campaigning because they can't point to an economic plan as a solution to a problem that was the cause of the problem in the first place.

Let business be business, and let government be government.

Business = creates jobs and makes money.

Government = makes laws and regulates trade.

Lets not mix, or confuse the two.

So any laws that the government makes should have no bearing on job creation is absurd.

If it doesn't matter then why is the Right always trying to eliminate the Federal Government to make it inconsequential (which is impossible)in our lives?

I just posted that it is now going to be blocked by the Republicans why don't you address that issue..Oh I forgot only in your mind can Republicans play Politics...fucking moron 🙄

Your own article said the Republicans are "likely" not that they have. As of this point Republicans in the senate did bring Obama's bill up for vote and Reid blocked it.

This is why you are laughed at everytime you post a thread. You see the government as some sort of support structure, it isn't. The governments role is to oversee, not dictate every facet of your life. Governments don't create jobs outside of government workers. All a government can do is create an atmosphere that is either conducive to job creation or not.

The federal government was pretty inconsequential in the lives of early Americans. State governments were far more powerful and still they did not meddle in the everyday lives of early Americans. Then, it seems, government's only interest was making sure that everyone was given an opportunity to succeed and if they failed, so be it. Now it seems governments only interests is making sure no one fails, which is absurd.

Nice dodge and throw it back in my lap...who do you argue with when this forum is down I bet you go fetal when you have no one to bitch at?

That post was baffling. My question was honest and sincere. Were you dropped on your head as a child? It would help to explain your thought process in these threads.

Business has to work around the laws.

When asbestos was banned, I am sure lots of people lost their jobs in asbestos manufacturing. But business developed stuff to replace asbestos, and new jobs were created.

 

[Patranus]

The correct title of this thread would be "Obama Kills Obama Jobs Bill".

It is Obama who is being the obstructionist here.
He came out and said that passage of the bill was all or nothing.
He is the only who has said there will be no compromise.

In what fantasy land playing out in your head is the right trying to eliminate the federal govt?

 

[blackangst1]

Last I knew, the dems wouldn't even co-sponsor the bill in the house and Reid won't even put up the original Obamabill in the Senate cuz he knows his own party will slam it. Only brain-dead libertrolls like Ausm will blame the reps for obstructing this.

And this isn't any more of a jobs bill than that POS jobs bil was 2 years ago.

LOL @ OP. Harry Reid did far more damage to this bill than any republican could. But, like Obama, you libs here continue to blame republicans even though the facts say otherwise. Republican wanted to have a vote a while ago but Prince Harry wouldn't have any of that.

This.

I am sorry that you don't have the mental capacity to grasp basic concepts. Oh please answer my question who do you argue with when the forums are down I am very interested.

Oh your personal attacks obviously show your maturity.

Here are my main points.

1) I get you don't agree with me

2) I don't give a flying fuck that you don't agree with me

Please keep repeating these points maybe just maybe they might sink in...but I doubt you would argue with a fucking potted plant.

 

[alphatarget1]

Yes we should pass this because the first stimulus worked SO WELL.

 

[Ausm]

You mean it wouldn't be in their best interest is disingenuous at best except to create laws where the rich could get even more rich.

Laughed at by Repuglican trolls like yourself?

You mean better then do nothing at all approach that the Republicans embrace?

 

[WHAMPOM]

It is not the role of government to create jobs.

"The business of America is business!",commerce and trade qoutes look up yourself.

 

[alphatarget1]

Well, your president is totally for killing jobs, like the NLRB blocking Boeing from opening a new plant in South Carolina.

 

[IGBT]

liberals in the democrat plantation know it's campaign stunt and by design it's not supposed to pass.

 

[theeedude]

Looks like its Obama vs Do Nothing GOP in 2012.

 

[Ausm]

LOL Killing Jobs?have you ever looked at how many jobs we were losing when he got into office compared to how many we are gaining now? I realize the number we are gaining is not enough so don't jump my ass on that issue 😉

 

[Ausm]

Reposted for Generation X's benefit maybe he will be able to understand now?

Oh your personal attacks obviously show your maturity.

Here are my main points.

1) I get you don't agree with me

2) I don't give a flying fuck that you don't agree with me

3) Go back to number 1

Please keep repeating these points maybe just maybe they might sink in...but I doubt you would argue with a fucking potted plant.

Damn the Right wing contingency is this forum today is impressive now I am waiting for the supreme Right Wing Tool Spidey to chime in 😉

Actually, yes, at this point doing nothing will be less damaging to the economy than this failure of a jobs bill.

 

[FerrelGeek]

You practice regurgitate Right wing talking points much?🙄

You have no room to talk here. All I've ever seen come out of you is standard liberal bilge. And btw, if the reps ever did produce a bill that could actually create jobs, I guarantee you the Reid and Obama would ensure it never gets passed and signed. The dems play politics as well as anyone. So go fantasize some more about having Obama's love child.

Say one thing and do the other, the Federal Government has always expanded under the control of the Right.

So the best course of action when unemployment is 10% is to do nothing...😵

 

[umbrella39]

Where the hell have you been the past 30 years?

The reps ALREADY have a bill to produce jobs, it's called trickle down economics... You see you give tax break after tax break after tax break to millionaire "job creators" and pretend that doing so creates jobs! They are still sitting on their hands and have been since the mid 80's but I'm thinking if we just stroke their dicks a little longer, a little harder, they are going to start the hiring any second now, any second now...
