Illinois Democratic Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. told The Daily Caller on Wednesday that congressional opposition to the American Jobs Act is akin to the Confederate “states in rebellion.”

Jackson called for full government employment of the 15 million unemployed and said that Obama should “declare a national emergency” and take “extra-constitutional” action “administratively” — without the approval of Congress — to tackle unemployment.

I believe … in the direct hiring of 15 million unemployed Americans at $40,000 a head, some more than $40,000, some less than $40,000 — that’s a $600 billion stimulus.

And it would "pay for itself" because those newly employed people would pay taxes and buy things, right? In fact, considering the "responsibilities" these new jobs would entail, some would have a lot of free time to start new businesses on the side: drug dealing, etc.

That isn’t rebellion, Jesse Jr, you douchebag, that is gridlock, and we thank God for it. “
