Unemployment is Obama's top priority

1. Many of our soldiers were killed or wounded by roadside bombs.

2. Iran supplies electrical parts for roadside bombs.

3. General Electric supplied parts to Iran for a long time, long after Iran was on our list of bad guys. General Electric claims they no longer deal with Iran.

4. Our congress decided incandescent light bulbs made in Cleveland are bad. Fluorescent replacement bulbs made in Red China are good.

5. California doesn't allow incandescent bulbs anymore. This is not an intrusion on personal liberties, only good for our environment.

6. General Electric, since 2001, has gotten rid of 24,000 American workers.

7. General Electric now has 14,000 workers in Communist Red China.

8. President Obama recently appointed General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt as his chief economic advisor. You get to pay his salary.

Around and around we go.

On the bright side, I see in the news where this guy is going to work with the ailing Detroit automakers.

I didn't know Detroit still made cars. I thought only Toyota made cars in America.

Tax increase for the job-creators

I saw on the TV news today that the lame-duck-loaded congress is going to vote on continuing the Bush tax cuts for the low and middle income citizens, but not for the job-creators. That doesn't make sense. (I have stopped calling it "tax cuts for the wealthy" and started calling it "tax cuts for the job-creators.")

Ms Pelosi was saying that these people don't really create the jobs and never did. Said that when the tax cuts were passed, it didn't help and no jobs at all were created under that Bush plan.

Well, who the heck creates the non-government jobs in this country then? The poor? The middle class?

Is it really a good idea to take more money away from the job creators so they won't have money to hire more people? So they have to lay off some workers in order to pay their higher taxes? Seems like Obama would want to try and keep the unemployment figure under 10%. He and Pelosi are confusing me.

Seems a waste to do this vote since the Republicans will only reverse it in January anyway.
