'Pass this bill,' the crowd chants
Politico44 ^ | 09/13/11 | JENNIFER EPSTEIN

Posted on 09/13/2011 2:18:21 PM PDT by ColdOne

The bill, which Obama held up toward the beginning of his speech, will pass if “we finally get our act together in Washington, if we can get folks in that city to stop worrying about their jobs and start worrying about your jobs,” he said.

The ideas he’s proposed, he said, are “paid for” and have gotten bipartisan support in the past.

I see in this "bill" it taxes people who own jets. Gives a bunch of new title jobs in government.

He could just as easily have had them chant “Give us your money.”

For all the urgency, no Dem has stepped forward to introduce this bill in the House of Representatives.

I thought they were chanting.

“Reject this swill!”

I am sure they weren’t prompted to chant that. /sarc

What did they get? A box lunch or a pack of butts?

The crowd was mostly high school kids, their parents, and teachers. Reading thru the facebook postings of the four local news stations that covered his speech today, Obama doesn't have a chance in 2012. They are trying their best to sell him, but it's just not working.

Its paid for by raising taxes over ten years, Obama would get the money now. Another scam to drown us in debt.

The bill has not been filed yet.

Next to ObamaCare this NEA has to be abolished as the next in order.

It doesn't matter. They're all bad ideas. We don't need more government union employees to support. The idea is to cut them - not hire them.

We need private sector jobs where people actually produce something rather than government union members who do nothing but gouge on tax slave supported life long freebies.

Oboma just doesn't get it. He has no idea what he's doing. He's a blithering idiot who doesn't belong in a position of authority.( Maybe he should be given a janitor position - that is if the janitors union believes he's qualified)

This clown informs the country that he has come up with a bill to save our economy that’s all paid for.

He doesn’t have a bill in writing, informs us a week later he’s going to tax us to death and then goes around the country on a campaign tour to cram it down our throats like healthcare.

How stupid does he think we are?

The multimillion dollar yachts like John Kerrys, or multimillion dollar mansions like Nancy Pelosis, won't be taxed. Too many wealthy democrat politicians own the same things.
Only those who work for a living should be enslaved. Otherwise, the freeloaders wouldn't vote to keep the wealthy democrat politicians in their power and luxury.

The tax payers are getting poorer and poorer - while the democrat politicians get richer and richer.
