Politicians do not even try to hide- Voter are to stupid to notice the truth !

Harry Reid carries a heavy burden these days, blocking and tackling for an unpopular President's unpopular agenda while trying to hold onto a Senate majority in 2012. So perhaps we should be forgiving when the Majority Leader says what he did yesterday on the Senate floor:

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about."

Then again, he really said that.

Mr. Reid was trying to defend a new Democratic proposal to spend another $35 billion that the government doesn't have to help states hire teachers and other public workers. He seems to be under the impression that private job creation is doing well, and that happy days would be here again if we could only gin up more government jobs.

So let's go to the videotape. According to the White House budget office, the federal executive branch had 1.875 million civilian full-time equivalent employees when the financial crisis hit in 2008. Two years later, that number had risen by 253,000 jobs to 2.128 million, a 13.5% increase.

The budget office predicted earlier this year that the number would fall slightly to 2.101 million in fiscal 2011, which ended on September 30, but then rise again in 2012 to 2.116 million. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported in September that overall federal government employment had fallen by 30,000 jobs from September 2010, but that's after the rapid rise under President Obama. There's been no jobs recession in the Beltway.

So perhaps Mr. Reid is referring to state and local government jobs? Well, the Labor Department report for September shows that state governments have cut payrolls by all of 49,000 since September 2010, to 5.089 million. Local governments have reduced employment at a somewhat faster pace—by 210,000 workers in the last year, to 14.076 million.

The pace of these state and local cuts have picked up this year, as the federal stimulus spending has declined. But Democrats promised in 2009 that the stimulus would be temporary—to help states get through the recession. State and local governments now have no choice but to cut workers, as they adjust to a new and reduced level of tax revenue thanks to the slow economic recovery.

As for the private jobs market, it's hard to see what Mr. Reid could possibly mean when he says it is "doing just fine." Private nonfarm employers added only 137,000 new jobs in September and 352,000 in the last three months. That's why the overall jobless rate remains an unprecedented 9.1% two years into an ostensible economic recovery.

Going back to 2008, the Labor Department reported 111.822 million employed private workers at the end of 2008. The number plunged during the recession, and as of September of this year overall private employment had climbed back to 109.349 million. But that's still some 2.5 million fewer jobs than in 2008. If this is doing fine, we'd hate to see Mr. Reid's definition of lousy.

What these numbers show is that, contrary to Mr. Reid, the real U.S. jobs problem continues to be in the private economy. If private employers were hiring at the pace they normally do in an economic recovery, we might be doing fine.

In any case, Mr. Reid's latest stimulus proposal isn't intended to help private employers. Its goal is to help state and local government workers, especially teachers, most of whom are unionized and pay dues that can finance Democratic Senate campaigns. The $35 billion would operate as a campaign-finance pass-through account, from Senate Democrats to unions and back to Senate Democrats.

Mr. Reid knows his proposal can't pass the House, and perhaps not even the Senate, so his real agenda is to stage a vote that Republicans will oppose so President Obama can claim on the stump that Democrats are doing something to help create jobs and that Republicans stopped them.

Instead, Mr. Reid's comments yesterday reveal that he and his fellow Democrats inhabit an economic universe in which government is the main engine of job creation. That's how you get a jobs crisis.

In my opinion any IRS agent that aids in this activity should be prosecuted ! Plus the illegal immagrant.

OK got it figured out !

I want to open an account with the Federal Reserve !

Need a loan to INVEST IN a new house, new car, new Harley, a new boat & enough cash to maintain them for a decade.

This will stimulate the economy ! Just what PRESIDENT OBAMA suggested !

I'll pay the interest on the loan with a home equity mortgage that I will qualify for once 1 miss the 1st 2 payments . This should be enough to cover all payments for the 1st 10 years . If I run short I'll just get a 2nd home equity loan !

This should create several jobs . I can also hire an illegal immigrant to take care of the yard & my wife will love me even more when I hire a house keeper for her !

Thanks PRESIDENT OBAMA SENATORS & CONGRESSMEN & CONGRESSWOMEN for teaching me how to reach the AMERICAN DREAM. When can I get with Ben Bernanke or Tim Geithner. Thanks again Kim Stalvey

Unbelievable

Budget

Will we see a budget for the country while Obama is President ? odds are under 50 % already . we should have had 2 by now .

Confused !

I am so far out of touch with reality-- They keep talking about raising the debt limit--We pay over a thousand million ( 400 Billion a year) dollars a day in INTEREST on borrowed funds now-- I think we need to reduce the debt limit to ZERO --& the sooner the better --They also claim 1 day social security is good till 2016 & then this week claim they may not have funds August 3rd- NO I DON'T UNDERSTAND- Who can explain the logic ?

IF debt ceiling gets raised ,the 1st cuts should be : All politicians pension funds are ended. All politicians can fund their on retirement accounts . All politicians pay for their own insurance . All politicians pay is reduced by 50 % . ONCE the politicians balance the budget ----------Reduce spending & size of Government & pay off all debts & fund all programs -IE social security - then we consider small raises once we have saved the eqivalent of the interest we have payed out over the last 100 years -Heck I would compromise to the interest paid out in the last 20. We LIMIT the tax rate to 18% of gdp. Just my 2 cets worth .

Progressive logic

It amazes me -we are actually paying interest on money we paid into social security & the goverment SPENT & now owes us ( SOCIAL SECURITY ) & in all the talks I NEVER -EVER hear any intentions of paying back any of the principle of those funds . That is why they want to raise taxes -so we can pay ourselves. Can I borrow some money from Nancy & when payment is due Can I get her to give me some more to make the payment ? If so give me a bunch & I'll end homelessness & food hunger & fund cancer research & when she balks about more funds I will just pass a law forcing her to pay me more.

Debt limit

 The more I hear about our country losing its credit rating & not being able to borrow more -the more I like it . then politicians will have to live with what it takes in & it will be even less with higher interest payments . Plus my savings account might actually earn some interest for the 1st time in decades. We fired Nancy last election Now hopefully we will fire Reed & possibly Obama. Just my 2 cents worth

Americans are stupid ???

News conference is on air & Obama just said professional politicians know better than the 69% who oppose raising the debt. odds of his re-election in 2012 just dropped below 50  !!!!  Keep talking President ! My daddy use to tell me " It's better to say nothing & have others think you are a fool -Than to open your mouth & remove all doubts. Ashame the Presidents dad wasn't in his life to teach him the things my dad did ! Americans are not as stupid as the president claimed just now in his news conference !

I was taught to avoid paying interest. ! guess I was raised wrong--NOT
