Correct me if im wrong, a president has very little to do with job creation. The real culprits are our so called representatives who formulate the tax laws according to "campaign donations".Businesses are encouraged to send jobs out for the tax break. Off shore accounts also help - no taxes paid. Its not only bush who stinks - its the whole bloody system of paid crooks.

1. I agree and I will vote against my Republican
AND Democrat Representative and Senators out this time around and I've let them all know: Rep. Chris Chocola, R-IN; Sen. Dick Lugar, R-IN; Sen. Evan Bayh, D-IN!!!! I will be campaigning for Joe Donnelly, Democrat runner against incumbent Chris Chocola in District #2.

What will anybody else be doing this year about this situational job loss?

2. This may be true, BUT...
...the executive branch sure can DESTROY jobs. The Congress are just accessories.

3. Yes, it's true
The Executive Branch can do little without the Legislative Branch. That's why we're in such deep shit...they control all of it. I refuse to vote for a Republican this time around. I'm going to start calling them "anti-progressive" over and over until the term sticks.

5. Naw...the "anti" is necessary to communicate
the message of negativity and hostility.
