“Yup, like jobs.”

zenlikejen on Aug 5, 2013 at 13:04:07

“LOL...exactly.

I was watching Fox News Sunday (don't laugh...it's about the only Fox "news" program I can tolerate that will give me some of the talking points we all have to sift through here the next day) and they were talking to that cadaver Eric Cantor. He was asked about job creation at one point. His reply?

"Um, Chris...the government doesn't create jobs."

This brings me to a question - cons ran on the promise of "job creation", yet have gone out of their way to do anything but...yet these same loons will turn around and claim Obama hasn't created any jobs...so I ask - WHICH IS IT? Does gov't create jobs only when it's convenient to do so, or do they *not* and just let the partisan sniping about *nothing* continue in hopes no one is paying attention?”

““We've always said sequester is not the best way to go about spending reductions. It was, as you know, a default mechanism, because Congress couldn't do the job it was supposed to a couple of years ago," Cantor said.

But Eric, you were in that Congress that "couldn't do the job it was supposed" why haven't you self-terminated your job?!?!”
