Obama’s still campaigning
The president’s insincerity knows no bounds. After a brief time at the job summit, he says he’ll welcome any suggestions to create new jobs, yet, for the past 11 months, he’s been asked and begged to stop illegal immigrants and to shred any proposals for amnesty for those people.
He welcomes them when our jobless rolls increase to the greatest amount they’ve ever been. (It’s very much like the ever-growing debts of our country.)
He ignores all those requests because he doesn’t really care about out-of-work Americans, compared to aliens who could someday vote for him. The Democrat representatives of the voters here in Washington vote lock-step with his proposals to kiss up to him, while all the time ignoring the request of the voters – for their salaries and votes.
They think they have lifetime jobs and we’re insignificant. They should all be booted from office, because they don’t represent us and because Obama says anything to sound good, meaning it or not.
He’s a campaigner, not a president. He obviously has good, albeit head-in-the-clouds speech writers, though. We need a problem solver, not a campaigner who wants nothing but publicity.
