The PLAN

Obama to deliver jobs address to joint session of Congress - TheHill.com

"the president said he will urge Congress to put aside politics and focus on creating jobs during the 8 p.m. speech."





HOW CONVENIENT

"The speech will fall on the same night Texas Gov. Rick Perry makes his debut on the GOP 2012 debate stage."

"It is coincidental," said Carney, who explained that a number of considerations were taken into account when Obama settled on Sept. 7.
"One debate of many that's on one channel of many was not enough of a reason" to pick another date, Carney said.
Carney said that Obama had chosen to speak directly to Congress in hopes that members had been chastened and softened after hearing from angry constituents over the August break."


BIG PLAN. Get this azzhole out of office. We got another year of this horse pooooooooooooooo

Seriously looks to me like he's postured the whole thing to get prime time viewing......

1 million jobs. Ok lets see this. It's gonna fall flat on it's face. No more spending.

Brian you don't agree he's posturing this as a political move to make himself look better? Why else would you spot prime time? It's a free tool for him?

Cept it probably cost you and me $500k a minute

I hope he announces a massive investment in Green Jobs

Solyndra to Declare Bankruptcy
President Obama touted the facility only a year ago

Solyndra was touted by the Obama administration as a prime example of how green technology could deliver jobs. The President visited the facility in May of last year and said "it is just a testament to American ingenuity and dynamism and the fact that we continue to have the best universities in the world, the best technology in the world, and most importantly the best workers in the world. And you guys all represent that. "

Solyndra, a Fremont-based solar panel manufacturer that flared then sputtered, abruptly ceased operations on Wednesday and immediately laid off all 1,100 of its workers.

The shutdown marks a high-profile collapse of a company that received more than $1.6 billion in federal and private funding in recent years.

"This was an unexpected outcome and is most unfortunate," Brian Harrison, Solyndra's president and chief executive, said.


Solyndra workers who were laid off on Wednesday were dismissed without layoff packages.

"They are getting no severance," said Dave Miller, a Solyndra spokesman. "They are getting nothing."

"It's devastating," Campbell resident Matthew Henry said. "There was no compassion."

OBAMA!!! WHERE ARE YOU????....oops...sorry to disturb your vacation

I'll watch the debate.

I can always read the 2 or 2000 page job plan later, whenever he
decides to deliver it.

Please. I don't wish that on my worst enemy, let alone a friend!

1. I have another, what, 15 years to be old enough anyway?

2. ScottW and Jim in CT might officially renounce citizenship and move to ???

3. I'd have to hire Spence as official spin master

This is a great post!!

In May 2011, Obama touted this company as one of the brilliant firms that would lead the way to green jobs, and just in May, Obama gave them a $500 million loan. 3 months later, and they are bankrupt. How did they burn through that $500 million in 3 months, did they have a bonfire? I hope they used solar panels to start the fire, and not fossil fuel...

And yet another example that everything Obama touches, EVERYTHING HE TOUCHES, turns to vomit. He can't get one right by accident, I have never seen his level of incompetence anywhere, ever. If Josef Stalin and Barney Fife conceived a child, it would be Obama.

God get me through one more year...one more year...

I swear liberals believe that green energy is available, it's just that no one wants to pursue it. The fact is, no one can make it work, not in a cost-effective way. No one wants to pay $45,000 for a car that you have to re-charge before you get to the end of your driveway. No one can afford $35,000 for solar panels on their house.

I want to get off fossil fuels. But the fact is, we're nowhere near achieving it. The first person to achieve it will become a trillionaire, and that's all the incentive anyone needs. We will be using oil for a long, long time.

Prolly be another $80 Billion "Green Economy"stimulus like the last fiasco
that created or SAVED 225,000 jobs at a cost of $335,000 per job.

Solar and green energy will happen and be cost affective at some point, but right now it's pie in
the sky and for the forseeable future we need fossil fuels.

1 - You're getting pretty close enough to be old enough.

2 - They will emigrate to the Federal Republic of Texas

3 - Leave Robert Gibbs alone in his retirement .
