Rep. Fleming (R-LA) Discusses President Obama's NO JOBS Plan

[knotnelikeb4]

What blows me away is the stance that taxing the wealthy is taxing the job creators....EXCUSE ME?

We don't need 1000 $10/hr jobs.

We don't need tax breaks to enable executive bonus'.

How about the 'job creators' create some jobs.....BEFORE getting the subsidy. Are we really supposed to just have faith that wealthy people will do the right thing? c'mon, this isn't Star Trek, this is real life. If you give the tax break first, what incentive is there to create head-of-household level jobs?

This guy is a idiot and if you believe his crap, because that's all that comes out of his mouth, you are a idiot as well.

[zoggbreath]

This joker makes over $1Million a year and and offers no solutions. All he offers is lies

[pjamesbda]

@zoggbreath - This self serving mantra riddles both isles of Congress and the Senate. But primarily, it is an epidemic in the Conserv. party. They have all drank the kool-aid. They even say the same phrases, like a bunch of droids, programmed to make sure they keep middle American down, and struggling to survive.

Hope your as done with it as most people, cause we WILL be doing something, and soon.

This guy is a jackass ! calculate 3 meals a day time 365 . now calculate that number by 200,000 now take that number and fill in the blank

My name is John Fleming and I spend $185 a meal feeding my family !

THIS IS BREAKFAST LUNCH AND DINNER

Here is someone who has employed hundreds of people. How many people have you employed lately? Do you know how many people Obama has employed in his life? ZERO. He was a student, then a student some more, then he was a teacher of students and then he was a professor then he was a scholar, and then a politician.....

Seriously, you're going to complain about the job? I know 10 million people that would like a job.

@CostaKapothanasis

you speak of him as if he created jobs through some divine act of mercy. in reailty, he simply bought shares of already existing companies.

[CostaKapothanasis]

@porter560 you speak of him as if the lively hood of people don't depend on his wealth. In reality you have no idea about the process of franchising. If it were as simple as you just put it than everyone would "buy shares of a company" When in reality the process of owning a franchise is you either save up enough money to buy the start up costs or you take out a loan. Mr. Fleming was a physician so he got his money through hard work

[CostaKapothanasis]

@porter560 its ridiculous how uninformed your average liberal is. You dont want to work hard for anything and you dont want anyone else to have anything for themselves.

[pjamesbda]

@CostaKapothanasis - This is a well worn conserv. lie. During the Obama admin. of 2 years now, over 2 million jobs were created. More jobs than Bush and Regan combined. If your gonna spout shit, clean up after yourself. If you want to be a corp. lap dog, we can't stop you. Go lick the dirty boots and enjoy yourself, but save your ridiculous assertions for the 10 million ignorant people you know.

Watch CHRIS at MSNBC go after this fat cat!  At last a host who is not intimidated by this congressman!

"We are sick of this slime!!! This retrobate can take his stinking sandwich stuffing jobs and eat shit." My sentiments exactly!!

[gregjalbert]

Stop catastrophic climate disruption. Stop the Keystone XL pipeline and stop exploiting ruinous tar sands in Canada. The State Department ignores the climate science. Protect current and many future generations from the greedy profiteering of oil and automobile industries and Wall Street. Far too much damage already done.

The hundreds of jobs he created are in the lucrative field of cutting lettuce and making sandwiches for minimum wage. While off those poor people's backs he netted $600,000. last year. That he admits to!!! He made another $175,000. as a congressman, while taxpayers pay his health insurance, and expense his travel. Yet he wants to end min. wage, univ. health care, and soc. security.

We are sick of this slime!!! This retrobate can take his stinking sandwich stuffing jobs and eat shit.

@pjamesbda

Leftist wacko logic.

Successful job creator = SLIME.

[pjamesbda]

@DemoticVEVO - You need to recieve a very clear message. We've never forgotten Haymarket, Ludlow, Centralia and others, because labor KNOWS by virture of these events that only thru cooperation can both side flourish.

This jack shit doesn't know anything about any of this. He doesn't know, because he has no interest in ANYONE but himself. I have no idea what you mean by successful, except that his employees have a marginal existence with no future, why don't you work for him bright spark?

[DemoticVEVO]

@pjamesbda

NEWSFLASH, that's how most people are. We don't give a fuck about other people, except our friends and families. We may help people out from time to time and give to charity, but we're not going to distribute our paychecks amongst our comrades.

I would work for him at minimum wage if I had to, and I'm sure alot of people would be happy to have ANY job in these times.

[p71280]

Obama 2012 ! YES.

[eowentada]

Great, smart, conservative ideas! Especially stopping all the regulations.
