I thought you might get a kick out of this, because I remembered you telling me the exact same thing a few days ago(!):
—From the article posted:
“President Barack Obama will call for new government spending on infrastructure, education and research in his State of the Union address Tuesday.”
—What you said on another thread:
“When Obama campaigned, he said he would decrease the deficit. They asked him for specifics on where he would cut the budget.
Obama said: “I will cut the budget by investing in roads and bridges, investing in education, and in green technology.
In his first year in office, Obama said he would stimulate economic growth. They asked him how.
Obama said: “I will stimulate the economy by investing in roads and bridges, education, and green technology.
In his second year in office, Obama said that he could create millions of jobs. They asked him how he would create jobs.
bama said: “I will create millions of jobs by investing in roads and bridges, education, and green technology.
And now, Ladies and Gentlemen, we enter the third year ...
And the answer is still “investing in roads and bridges, education, and green technology.”
I think Axelrod found a magic combination years ago, and Obama uses it as some sort of incantation now. You name a problem -- any problem -- and it can be solved by spending on infrastructure, education, and green technology. I guess they think people respond to this. It's their swiss army knife.
Did he really say that each year?
