Status: offline 		Remember during the election when all the GOP talked about was JOB CREATION, it seems very hard to find any elected GOP official willing to talk about job creation these days.  Here is a list of the few things they think have to be taking care of first

In Wisconsin, for example, as soon as the 2010 election votes were counted, Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald announced that the first bill he would introduce was one requiring voters to show photo IDs when they go the polls. The legislation does nothing to help the deficit, but actually increases it, because in order to be constitutional it has to provide free IDs to the tens of thousands of Wisconsin citizens who don’t have drivers’ licenses.

Then, of course, came the bills dealing with abortions, concealed carry of weapons, Arizona-like anti-immigration proposals, a repeal of last session’s law that extends benefits to gay state employees and their domestic partners — for starters.

In Georgia, a legislator wants to change the legal term for victims of rape, stalking and domestic violence to “accuser.” Victims of other crimes, like burglary, would still be called “victims.”

In Maryland, the GOP wants to end all county money for a low-income kids’ preschool program. The reason? Women should really be home with the kids, not working when they’re that young.

In South Dakota, there’s a Republican proposal to make it legal to murder a doctor who provides abortion care.
Meanwhile in Congress, a bill has been introduced that essentially would let hospitals allow a woman to die rather than perform an abortion necessary to save her life.
The House, of course, has already voted to withdraw any federal funds to Planned Parenthood, even though it’s the last resort for cancer screening and STD treatment for women who can’t afford health care.
So where are all the JOB BILLS the GOP_ ran on??????

Actually, during the first two years of the Obama administration, unemployment FELL steadily. Of course conservatives are loath to admit it.

Now with Republicans in the house, they are more concerned with helping big business rather than creating jobs. TYPICAL.

Now of course, they will blame the democrats for the high cost of labor, you know, minimum wage laws.

Or do you think we where better off losing 700,000 per month in Bush's last year. 

Gee, unemployment down, profits up and all the GOP can say is Obama is not good for this country

Yeah, like G.E.?
It's both the Dems and Repubs who've done that!
Obama went to Harvard and he can't see that?
And he wants "more free trade?"
We need to start manufacturing things in this country again!
This "service economy" doesn't work.

Oh joy.
