Mr. President, Where Are The Jobs?

House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (CA-22) released the following video : "Mr. President, Where are the Jobs?" There have been a lot of nice speeches about jobs. Now it's time for speeches to stop and actions to begin. The President said it would be the "Recovery Summer" last year, but when you look at entrepreneurship over the last twelve months it's been the lowest in a decade. It's time to read the data, stop the speeches, and take action that creates jobs, empowers entrepreneurs and gets this country working again. Now is a time for action, not political posturing.

Only to liberals can the audacious act of letting people keep more of their own money through "tax cuts" be considered a cost to the govt... as if it were the govts money in the first place. Insane.

[Jason Felski]

So according to republican logic the executive branch writes bills.

Rep or demo they are both shit right now. But right now anythings better than the rag head president

Mr.McCarthy, Where are the jobs you and the GOP promised in your 'Pledge To America". Did you forget about that. Because it was that pledge that gave you back the House. Since then you all have outright lied to the American People. Its not President Obama's job to create jobs, its yours. You control the purse strings, you do the laws, it your job. The GOP needs to work for all Americans, not just the rich. You have intentionally held back any recovery from this recession. And we know it.

[Mike Perez]

Sure would be nice to get someone in office that actually keeps the promises that they make.

You see, Republicans secretly, and not so secretly, want a fascist dictator that allows mega corporations to trample all over the rights of their workers, but will make sure that big brother is in every house and every home, dictating how we should live our lives. They have no interest is small businesses, rather they prefer the super rich and will allow monopolies to form that drive out small businesses.

[chicagoskinheads]

Actually Rep. McCarthy, where are the jobs you Republicans have been promising for over 30 years of tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans? Oh, that's right, the Republicans shipped them overseas.

Thank you CNN for posting a conservative argument for once.

STOP obammie's Regulatory Commissions - they are acting like Commie Dictators!

Umm, some sort of a plan would have been nice from the Democratically controlled govt for the past 2.5 years? They dropped the ball. They and he deserve to be bashed. I would suggest that being so weak as to bend to the Tea Party shows just how unqualified this Pres. is. He is a schill for corporations. i like to call him Bushama.

[Panchee123]

ask Jeffrey immelt from GE. Obama's bud. They are all in China. It is absurd to blame the Tea Party when Obama is chummy chummy with GE, one of the biggest exporters of jobs.  P.S. the stimulus did not work

[gotitans999]

Government does not create efficient jobs. This whole jobs issue should not even be spoken of. Just create certainty for four years with guarantees, and then businesses will feel safe to invest and hire. Now they have no idea what their taxes will be and how much insurance tax they must provide for their employees. Only Ron Paul has a huge ideological difference from everyone. That is real change.
