Last night the President spoke on his jobs bill. I'd like to point out that his claim that the bill will be paid for seems flimsy at best.
There is a committee in Congress, now firguring out how to cut $ 1.5 trillion from the budget, That committee has a Guillotine blade hanging over them in the form of severe unwanted cuts for both parties.
Now Obama wants to further burden this committee and expects them to solve his problem which is an additional 33% added to their existing problem. This is a pipe dream.
With the bill unpaid for, how does he expect it to be enacted? He doesn't. He is using the unemployed as pawns in his reelection campaign. Well he may carry it off, but in the meantime .......
