Well, look’s like I’ll need to work a second job if he wins the election.

Well there's your problem right there... get another job? Pffffftttt....It's time to go on the dole and let Father Obama take care of us all. ;-)

Well, I DO know that Merury-Filled Lightbulb Cleanup Specialist is going to be the hot-job of the 2010’s!

Could THAT be what he’s talking about???

How much of the $210 billion will pay for sick days, hourly breaks, vacation days, and time spent sleeping in the bushes near the job sites?

Obama does not understand that taxing private sector employers will destroy millions of jobs, and that the make-work jobs created in their place will actually produce nothing of value other than millions of new Democrat voters dependent on the Federal Government for a living.

Oh, wait: he does get it.

210 Billion = 210 x 1000 Million = 210,000 millionaires

Hell, just have a welfare lottery and give out checks for 1 million dollars tax free for exchange of a signed statement that you would never again seek help from the government. You could wipe out poverty in ten years........

Obama explained that the money for his spending proposals will come from:
ending the Iraq war,
cutting tax breaks for corporations,
taxing carbon pollution and
raising taxes on high income earners.


All four of these actions will cause job losses.

Did Obama factor that in his "job creation program"?

If you want to se what the country will be if Obamarama prevails,look no further than Massachusetts.Last year the moonbats here elected Deval Patrick,an African-American moonbat.His campaign was eerily similar to Obama’s,speaking eloquently about nothing.Since Patrick’s become governor,it’s been one mishap after another.Totally overmatched.There are too many things to list here. Point is Obama will be no match for the job at hand should he win.

there are a large number of jobs in construction right now-more jobs than there are people to fill them-Americans do not want to do manual labor. There is no need to spend additional federal tax dollars building any more “big digs”.

He wants 90 billion a year more for foreign aid, $845 billion over 13 years now he wants 210 billion for job creation.

Guess I need two or three more jobs just to pay for all the taxation this jack ass will levy to pay for Obamatopia.

OBAMATOPIA

Interrupt the TelePrompTer and Oboma goes offline; kind of like dropping a WiFi connection on your laptop.
