Goolsbee "Our effort now as a government should be to get the private sector to help them stand up and lead the recovery,"

Goolsbee "the private sector was in freefall and the government is only thing standing between us and falling into another great depression"


Does this mean there was no helping the private sector before, but now it's finally time to help the private sector?

It means they're paying lip service because they're too biased to do what's right.

The president has never stopped talking about jobs," Goolsbee said. "For him, the growth strategy is the number one issue."

This president is about jobs, job and more jobs. No other president has ever created as many jobs as has Obama.

The “stiff (sic) headwinds” are basic economic principles.

Get out of the way and let the headwinds of a free market blow us back to prosperity.

Goolsbee maintained that "the trend is really clear" on positive job growth in recent months, when the economy added one million jobs in the private sector.

"Don't make too much of any one month's job report because they are highly variable," said Goolsbee


And how about that "trend"? It's clear, but "Don't make too much of any one month's job report"; Isn't it 3 months to make a trend? But don't make much of 1 month?

They might want to get Christina Romer back and try that "2 heads are better than 1".

We've added more than two million jobs

I believe that to be a 100% bald-faced lie.

Riiiight. Obama's idea of 'help' is more regulations and rules.

When did they figure out there’s a private sector??
Did Weiner have to Tweet them a photo of it?

The stiff winds are those trade winds from Asia.

Oh, so that’s it. Those were “stiff headwinds” I was hearing as the cashier rang up my groceries yesterday! I thought I was having a stroke.

What absolute manure!

What we do need is a general strike and a “jobless army” march on DC complete with tent city.

These are the same boobs that say that Obama’s rescue of the auto companies saved millions of jobs. If you take off the Keynesian blinders, it should be obvious to anyone not a Democrat office-holder, that putting the auto companies through a packaged bankruptcy would have kept the same jobs (but not the dominant UAW) and not cost the taxpayers anywhere near the billions spent! Instead they felt free to wipe-out the investors to save their union voters.

.....................”The president has never stopped talking about jobs,” Goolsbee said. “For him, the growth strategy is the number one issue.”........................

Yeah that’s the ticket, jobs are issue #1!

It’s just that porkulous; Obamacare; giving the auto industry to the unions; Dodd-Frank, bashing Isreal; green energy and cap & trade; bowing to dictators around the world; loading up SCOTUS with a bunch of unqualified bimbos; daily TOTUS speeches; making up the phony birth certificate; a whole load of vacations; 71 rounds of golf; and trying to keep the Wookie in new frocks, just got in the way.

Don’t blame me, it’s all Bush’s fault!

Goolsbee was on Bloomberg TV,Solis on CNBC and of course odumbo at the Chrysler plant after the employment numbers came out. The first two at the same time. The idiot a little while later. They all said almost the same exact thing. Headwinds. Some job number created over the past 6 months. The point being not that they knew the figures would suck but that they knew the figures ahead of time,enough time to come up with talking points. Pure damage control. Its a good sign that they feel the need to circle the wagons. They know the idiot is toast.

Does this mean there was no helping the private sector before, but now it's finally time to help the private sector?

From a political standpoint, they finally figured out paying pubic unions, private unions, bailing out their buddies on wall street with trillions of taxpayer money isn't going to create jobs.

Now that it's election time, we better make sure the pubic knows we are really, really, really trying to help main street by saying a bunch of words but doing nothing because they have nothing left to do

In the end they will blame big business and greedy corporations for not hiring people when all along they should have taken their heel off the throat of america and let free enterprise and capitalism work it's magic

The best and fastest way for them to help private sector is GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY
