Obama’s New Jobs Bill: Words…Just Words…

Yesterday morning, President Barack Hussein Obama unveiled the fine print included in his new American Jobs Act, and Americans found out why he wanted it passed immediately…before everyone found out what was in it.

Porkulus II: Hope You Have Change Left:  If Scooter has his way and this bill passes through Congress, it would be funded primarily through tax increases that according to Republicans, would destroy jobs, not create them.

Per wsj.com:

Mr. Obama proposed limiting itemized deductions for families making $250,000 or more a year, ending tax breaks for oil companies and corporate jet owners, and cutting out a tax break for investment-fund managers. The White House says the tax changes would take effect in 2013 and estimates they would raise $467 billion in additional revenue over 10 years.

Republicans in Congress, who had been striking a more conciliatory tone about backing at least parts of the proposal the president unveiled last Thursday, disputed the White House contention that the plan would cause no additional job losses for the struggling economy.

“It would be fair to say this tax increase on job creators is the kind of proposal both parties have opposed in the past,” said Michael Steel, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio). “We remain eager to work together on ways to support job growth, but this proposal doesn’t appear to have been offered in that bipartisan spirit.”

Mr. Obama made a new pitch for his plan at the White House Monday and has said he intends to campaign against Congress and Republicans in 2012 if they don’t pass the bill.

“We’ve got to decide what our priorities are,” he said. “Do we keep tax loopholes for oil companies, or do we put teachers back to work? Should we keep tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires, or should we invest in education and technology and infrastructure?”

Despite Mr. Obama’s demand that Congress act on the legislation quickly, neither the jobs nor tax proposals are likely to be approved or take affect any time soon. Senate Democratic leaders are expected to bring the bill to a vote in the coming weeks, but it is not expected to pass.

Evidently, the public is not impressed either.  As of yesterday, per gallup.com, Obama ‘s Job Approval  Poll is sitting at 42% approval, 49% disapproval concerning the job he’s doing as president.

  1. I liked Rick Perry’s comment on Monday. Jobs Bill (Stimulus #1) created zero jobs for $1 trillion dollars. This jobs bill is 1/2 the size at $450 billion so it will produce 1/2 times zero jobs = zero jobs.
    Keep your bill, Zero. We’ll keep our money.
