"Mr. Obama's plan for reducing the deficit would cut $2.50 in spending allowances for every $1 of increased tax revenue - the same deal House Republicans turned down during last year's near-government shutdown episode. When Pelley reminded him of that, the president reasoned, "That's part of what this election's about," adding that GOP nominee Mitt Romney told "Face the Nation" in June he stood by an earlier pledge not to raise taxes, even if it meant $10 in spending cuts for every $1 increased revenue.
"You can't reduce the deficit unless you take a balanced approach that says, 'We've gotta make government leaner and more efficient,'" the president said. "But we've also got to ask people - like me or Gov. Romney, who have done better than anybody else over the course of the last decade, and whose taxes are just about lower than they've been in the last 50 years - to do a little bit more."
You don't even listen to Romney, or common sense, the fed. gov't can't create private sector jobs, but a pro-business Pres. can create the environment where the job creators can.
Good. I'm glad at least one of you agree that presidents don't create private sector jobs. One fact down, a billion left to go.

What you fail to realize is that employers who hire professional types will pay anyway. Mitt said that he would like to continue to use expensive ERs to look after the health needs of the indigent rather than inexpensive primary care operations, many of which could be run by nurse practitioners.
Now you are right that it will cost employers who provide part time, low wage work a little more. The Papa John guy admitted that Obamacare would add an additional $0.15 to the cost of his pizzas. The damage of this "Socialism" is almost enough to make you cry, dontcha think?
You look for a President that can give away stuff as a measure of accomplishment, that's why you love Obama... the redistributing of wealth from those who earned it to those who didn't is only the measure of a President who wants to maintain a permanent underclass...
I'd be happy with a president that outlaws the Mitt Romneys of the world from redistributing the wealth from of perfectly good companies into their own pockets and putting tens of thousands in the street after they sell off the carcasses of the businesses to some foreign interest.
I honestly don't see how these guys are so effective at brainwashing working people to act against their own best interests for the benefit of a few tycoons. Insanity.

I didn't need any brainwashing too see what 4 years of Obama got us... more than double the 'unpatriotic' (Obama's words) deficit Bush created, downgrade our credit rating twice by having no plan to reduce it, create a crazy bankruptcy for GM that gives the company to it's union, try to inplement a redistributionist healthcare system that will cost trillions more than promised and raise taxes massively, seat liberal judges out to dismantle the constitution, take credit for killing Bin Laden but decry the methods that got us the intelligence to make that possible, make political decisions that got our ambassador and other killed... etc.
Three days and he's gone.

You can say that all you want. But except for the stimulus that O needed to keep us from falling into a massive depression, you can't name one thing he's spent any money on that Bush didn't create.

You can lie to yourself about that too, but the people doing the downgrading will tell you it's because they can't trust the tea party nuts to allow the US to meet its debt obligations.

Funny, I see GM trade on the stock market just like every other publicly owned corporation. Again, your sources have proven to be FOS.

The effects of brainwashing can apparently be irreversible in some highly susceptible specimens...
Unemployment extensions haven't crippled this nation? The unemployment rates would be much lower without them. Why would someone take a job making $12.00/hr and have taxes taken out and have to wake in the morning and put gas in their car etc... when they can sit on their lazy liberal ass and collect $420/wk for 2 yrs. W did not pass these extensions. If the great powerful "o" really wanted to reduce joblessness he would never have allowed these extensions. But if his gov't isn't taking care of you how else would he "buy" your vote? I work for a living, and EARN everything I have and spend. I don't like my pay being taken and given to the worthless!!!!

They are over in 2013 regardless of who wins. I agree that extending them beyond 6 months probably did as much harm as good.

Where do you get that figure? I seriously doubt that that is the avg unemployment compensation for a $12/hr worker.

You may be the first conservative to actually find a questionable Obama policy. Congratulations!
My point is, that if a guy made $14 or more per hr he gets max benefits in our area which is $420/wk. If he finds a job that pays $12/hr is he going to take it? HELL NO. I didn't mean to imply he originally made $12/hr. And thanks for the congrats.
