News, Etc.

Labor Day came and went, and of course the president has nothing new to offer for the jobless other than the same old neoliberal hogwash that hasn't worked and never will work.

Obama certainly can't be trusted on the issue of jobs.  Jobs is the ONLY issue that really matters in this country, and the lack of them is negatively affecting demand, which in turn is why this economy has ground to a halt.

Listening to Obama talk about jobs and shared prosperity yesterday reminded me that we are back in campaign mode and Barack Obama has started doing again what he does best – play the part of a progressive. He's good at it. It sounds like he has a natural affinity for union workers and ordinary people when he makes these speeches. But his policies are crafted by representatives of corporate/financial America, who happen to entirely make up his inner circle. 

I just don't believe this guy anymore, and it's become almost painful to listen to him.

I never could stand to listen to him.  He stammers while somehow people think he is brilliant.  Well, he isn't.

He's right and everything, but he's dealing with an enemy just as vicious as the mob of yore.
