President Obama: The truth of the matter is that, as I said, we created 4.3 million jobs over the last 27 months, over 800,000 just this year alone.
The private sector is doing fine. Where we're seeing weaknesses in our economy have to do with state and local government. Oftentimes cuts initiated by, you know, Governors or mayors who are not getting the kind of help that they have in the past from the federal government and who don't have the same kind of flexibility as the federal government in dealing with fewer revenues coming in.
And so, you know, if Republicans want to be helpful, if they really want to move forward and put people back to work, what they should be thinking about is how do we help state and local governments and how do we help the construction industry? Because the recipes that they're promoting are basically the kinds of policies that would add weakness to the -- to the economy, would result in further layoffs, would not provide relief in the housing market, and would result, I think most economists estimate, in lower growth and fewer jobs, not more.
So, no, you didn't build that, but the private sector is doing fine.
Mr. President, when the private sector is actually doing fine we have enough tax revenue to pay for local government... duh..
Actually I *can* take it. I just think tucker's a shill that will never be heard from again after the election - so I figure why let him have all the fun?

I've been on this forum since the beginning, and will be here for a long time..
Yup! What we need is more people employed by the government to be paid for by money borrowed from china and eventually paid for by your grand children.
Delta, I think you need to go over to the "you didn't build that" thread and see that Tucker started posting all of the pink bunnies and various Obama photos. Not to mention he posted a video that autoplays every time you view the thread; even Cliff mentioned it.
Just calling a spade a spade. It has nothing to do with a political party and has become a pissing contest. But it's ruining threads for everyone. I won't even open that other thread anymore and I think I'm done with this one also.
Ok, that was hilarious, LMFAO when I opened this thread
Tucker said" I will post this after every post that you make on this forum. Game on.. you asked for it... "
So far D has posted twice.......and nothing
Big D, Sam got butt hurt because he cant debate without taking it personal. He then took his toys and went home only to show back up under another name. He also possibly changed his name because he wanted to run for office and doesn't want anyone to know how crazy he really is.

Hows that run for office going Sam?
Ya.. All five or six names I've had... That's the reason...
I did not. Ryan Kinsell (spelling is wrong) is a real person here in AZ, has a boat, and is a drywall contractor. His boat was called Blue Cheese I have never used that name on here.
Tucker and Big D. Please stop acting like 10-year-olds. It's so ridiculous that you two have to have these pissing matches with no disregard to the damage you to do the thread or the forum in general. Please go away if you're going to continue to act this way!!
