Posted on September 9, 2011 at 10:02pmHe wasn’t satisfied wasting money on all his stimulus losers earlier, now he wants to try it again to see if he can learn WHY is doesn’t work. Just ask, we can tell you.
The cash for clunkers was a dismal waste of our money, all the so called stimulus jobs went to the wrong people. We need to hire non-union small companies to get them on their feet.
Everything Obama tried was a dismal failure.
Now, try doing one thing correctly. Listen to those who understand business. Help small companies to believe you are going to help them know they can expand their companies and hire people, no strings attached, stop lying to them. Stop putting brick walls in their way so they can succeed.
Best advice is to listen to those who understand business, not your buddies who haven’t the vaguest idea what to do but throw money around. Geez. Just like throwing money at “the Children” and the majority goes to administration and other things except good programs for learning. Just listen and stop going 1/2 cocked on stupid advice from your commie friends.
