RUSH: Folks, do you want to laugh?
OBAMA: We’re putting Americans back to work doing the work that America needs done: Rebuilding roads, bridges, uhh, and new schools, and all manner of construction projects across all 50 states. I’m not going to rest. I know the governors and candidates here are not going to rest, and I know that the American people are not going to rest until everybody who’s looking for work can find a job.
RUSH: He must be building a road to the Clinton Library and Massage Parlor ’cause they got like $2 million of stimulus money. Have you ever heard anything more ridiculous?
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
This is Obama at the fundraiser for the Democrat governors association. This is just… You know, I remember saying when I first started this program back in 1988, ‘Liberals are hilarious and fun when they’re out of power. When they’re in power, they are dangerous.’ Never more so has that been illustrated than now. Now, you and I all know that of the Porkulus package that was authorized for expenditure, not even 4% of it has been spent.
We know that grants have gone to the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes for Health. We learned yesterday that a couple of million dollars went to the Clinton Library and Massage Parlor. We learned that a million and a half went to some scientist at Oklahoma State to study Alaskan grandparents. We have heard other examples of all the stimulus money, but Caterpillar is not rehiring workers. They’re still letting workers go. We have not seen any ‘shovel-ready projects’ get underway. The stimulus was to put people back at work, shovel-ready construction projects. We were going to rebuild the roads and schools. You remember all of that? None of it is happening! It’s 561,000… What was the number. I don’t want to get this wrong. The new unemployment numbers today were — da-da-da-da-da — yeah, can’t find it. I buried it in the stack. Another 500,000-plus jobs lost last month, and yet Obama says to the Democratic Governors Association fundraiser this just this afternoon:
OBAMA: We’re putting Americans back to work doing the work that America needs done: Rebuilding roads, bridges, uhh, and new schools, and all manner of construction projects across all 50 states. I’m not going to rest. I know the governors and candidates here are not going to rest, and I know that the American people are not going to rest until everybody who’s looking for work can find a job.
RUSH: Why are you going to Copenhagen, then? You’re not gonna rest until everybody who wants a job can find one? We had 551,000 jobs lost! It’s an ‘unexpected increase,’ according to the State-Controlled Associated Press. We’re not putting Americans back to work. We’re not doing the work America needs to be done. This unemployment is great news for Obama! He is purposeful doing this, destroying the private sector. There aren’t any roads being rebuilt, not with stimulus money. There aren’t any bridges. Schools? All manner of construction projects? The guy lives in a bubble. He really does believe that if he says it, you’ll believe it despite what you see with your own eyes.
