Obama Says Jobs Priority One, That’s Why He Hasn’t Met With Them Publicly in Six Months, But Has Time for Fund Raisers, Vaction and Golf … Romney Says, Obama’s “priority is keeping his own jobs and that is why he is going to lose it.”

Obama’s Jobs Council AWOL … and you wonder why there are being no jobs created? How can anyone justify this while the President conducted 89 fundraisers in the last six months. Obama is obviously concerned more about his own job than helping create those for America.

President Barack Obama has repeatedly said that jobs were his top priority. Really? The jobs numbers hardly show that. But it gets worse, Obama’s Jobs Council has not met publicly for six months. SIX MONTHS!!! Its bad enough there are members on this panel who are CEO’s who outsource jobs, something that Obama has criticized his opponent Mitt Romney for doing while at Bain Capital. All this while millions of Americans are out of work, unemployed and underemployed, Obama’s Jobs Council is MIA.

President Barack Obama’s Jobs Council hasn’t met publicly for six months, even as the issue of job creation dominates the 2012 election.

At this point, the hiatus — which reached the half-year mark Tuesday — might be less awkward than an official meeting, given the hornet’s nest of issues that could sting Obama and the council members if the private-sector panel gets together.

Mitt Romney responded to this news of Obama’s Jobs Council in Bowling Green, Ohio in the video (4:00 mark) below and stated you would think that with a situation so bad in the United States when it comes to comes that the President would spend all of his time on helping people get jobs. Instead in the last six months Obama has held 100 fund raisers and had ZERO meetings with his Jobs Council. Romney went on to say to cheers,  his [Obama's] priority is not creating jobs for you, his priority is keeping his own jobs and that is why he is going to lose it.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney was questioned by the press as to why Obama’s Jobs Council had not met publicly in six months. After twisting and trying to find an answer to an inexcusable situation, Carney said that the reason why they have not met was because Obama had a lot on his plate. Yup, he was just too busy. That is why is the last six months Barack Oabma has been able to hold 89 fund raisers, go on vacation and play multiple rounds of golf.  Yup, Obama has a full plate, too full a plate than to make JOBS his priority. At least he has a plat, unlike millions of Americans without a job and without a home.

Another Obama Green Energy Company Bites the Dust … Amonix Received $6 Million in Federal tax credits & a $15.6 Million Grant from the U.S. DOE

Forget Romney and Bain Capital, what about Barack Obama’s business track record with failed green energy companies and lost tax payer dollars all under the guise of creating jobs?

Add another “green” energy company to the failed Barack Obama trash pile of squandered US tax payer dollars. Amonix, a solar manufacturing plant in North Las Vegas that received $6 million in federal tax credits and a $15.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy has closed its doors. Amonix is described on their web page as the leading designer and manufacturer of concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) commercial solar power systems. Oops, not so much. Add Amonix to the growing list of failed companies touted by the Obama Midas touch like Solyndra, Abound Solar, Beacon Power …

ANOTHER OBAMA FUNDED GREEN ENERGY COMPANY ONE BITES THE DUST

The Amonix solar manufacturing plant in North Las Vegas, heavily financed under an Obama administration energy initiative, has closed its 214,000-square-foot facility 14 months after it opened. [...]

A designer and manufacturer of concentrated photovoltaic solar power systems, Amonix received $6 million in federal tax credits and a $15.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to build the plant in North Las Vegas.

Is it any wonder why, according to a recent Rasmussen poll, that 57% of Americans say that Venture Capital Firms are better job creators than government programs. Only a delusional 27% think the government does.

How’s Obama Doing Spending Your Tax Dollars?

As Yogi Berra would say, its deja vous all over again or in the case of Weasel Zippers, hmm stop me if this sounds familiar? Sadly this is all too familiar during the Obama regime. Obama has thrown away Americans hard earned tax dollars and failed, epically failed America. Add Amonix to the long list of Obama funded green energy companies.

Mitt Romney Blasts Obama on Insulting Every Entrepreneur in America and Attacking Success … “I find it extraordinary that a philosophy of that nature by a President of the” United States.”

Return of the Jedi … It’s about time he has called Obama on his lies, mis-truths and head shaking centralized, socialist philosophy

Mitt Romney finally took the gloves off in Irwin, PA and blasted President Barack Obama for attacking the American spirit of entrepreneurship and success. Romney’s comments were in response to Obama’s moment of truth where for one of the few times during his presidency he let everyone know what he thought about individual’s success and the role of a large, in your face, all controlling government from birth to grave. Obama’s attack on entrepreneurs, small business and success will resonate through out the election. It will be known as the “Roanoke Incident”  where Obama in a moment of weakness and truth gave us a glimpse into his soul. We may look back on the 2012 Presidential election and target this moment as the date that changed the race and the turning point for Mitt Romney and the salvation for America.

Barack Obama says, “If you’ve got a business … you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen” … Mitt Romney says, that this is not only foolishness, it is an insult to ever entrepreneur in America and under a Romney administration we will not have a president that embraces success, not attacks it.

“What the President said was both startling and revealing.  I find it extraordinary that a philosophy of that nature
by a President of the” United States.”

Mitt Romney Rips Obama a New One in Irwin, PA “Liberal Policies Don’t Make Good Jobs!”

Romney on the attack and talking the Obama failed economy.

Mitt Romney finally went on the offensive and ripped Barack Obama and his policies a new one in Irwin, PA. It was a long time in coming that Romney stepped up to the plate and knocked Obama and the Obama failed economy out of the park. It was an inspired Romney and the crowd loved it. Romney attacked Obama on his crony capitalism of giving money to donors and Obama’s continual blame game. Romney showed a relaxed nature during the speech of seaming Barack and also used whit and humor stating Obama is always looking around for something/someone to blame, ATM, machines, tsunamis, China, Europe, Congress and Romney.

Hey folks did you notice something during Romney’s speech … no teleprompter and with no teleprompter, no gaffes.

Charles Krauthammer Rips Obama’s Business Speech: “Spoken By A Man Who Never Created Or Ran So Much As A Candy Store”

On Fox News Special Reports Charles Krauthammer pretty much summed up President Barack Obama’s entire “epic fail” of handling the US economy and the misguided and dangerous views of a president hell bent on destroying what little is left. Krauthammer responded to Obama’s idiotic comments made in Roanoke, VA where Obama stated, “If you’ve got a business … you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.” Charles says  …  “Spoken By A Man Who Never Created Or Ran So Much As A Candy Store”

Does America really want 4 more years of this? Can America afford 4 more years of Obama?
