Next Month During A Big Speech Obama Will Reveal A Secret Plan For What They Should Be Doing Now To Boost The Economy And Haven't Been Doing The Past 30 Months But Probably Won't Start Until Next Year
President Teleprompter prepares for a big job creation speech next month:
Seeking to jolt the economy, President Barack Obama will unveil new ideas to create jobs and help the struggling poor and middle class in a major speech after Labor Day. And then he will try to seize political advantage by spending the fall pressuring Congress to act on his plan.
I'm so excited! I can't wait for the big speech! I know the last eight 'boost-the-economy' speeches were just a warm-up for this one!
Taking bets now. Who/What will Obama blame this time for the failing economy?
A. Bush B. The Tea Party (aka "terrorists")
C. Republican Congress
D. Arab Spring
E. Bad mojo/luck/karma
F. All of the above
G. None of the above (new excuse)
