Just in time for the November midterms, Occupy DC has decided to push the "jobs recovery" lie. Never forget, without knowledge, the people perish.

Incredibly, the Occupy DC regime that is Obama and Company, is claiming a historic rate of success for its "jobs policy," in spite of the fact that the labor force is the lowest recorded in the past 40 years; in spite of the fact that more people have left the workforce than "Obama jobs created." What I am saying is this: Obama is reporting only half of the jobs picture, the part for which he has actually done nothing to create. Big Government does not create private sector jobs, and this is what he is talking about. Who creates those jobs? Ah . . . . . . . THE PRIVATE SECTOR.

So, what has he created? Certainly not private sector jobs. There is nothing left, then, but the sad truth: via increases to a regressive tax code and healthcare requirements, he has lowered the American work week from a nominal 40 hours to a nominal 29 hour work week, Minimum wage jobs have creased at a faster rate than full-time, good paying jobs, because of the Obama policies for saving the planet and distributing wealth to the needy and the takers in this country and around the world.

Kiss 3,900 jobs good-bye and that is all on Obama's EPA. We need 2 million jobs right now and this Administration can't even come up with 3,900.

Washington Examiner:
Chase Power, the parent company behind the $3 billion Las Brisas coal power plant in Corpus Christi, Texas, announced yesterday that it was cancelling the project.
“Chase Power … has opted to suspend efforts to further permit the facility and is seeking alternative investors as part of a plan of dissolution for the parent company,” Chase CEO Dave Freysinger told the Corpus Christi Caller-Times.
Freysinger made it very clear who was responsible for the projects death. “The (Las Brisas Energy Center) is a victim of EPA’s concerted effort to stifle solid-fuel energy facilities in the U.S., including EPA’s carbon-permitting requirements and EPA’s New Source Performance Standards for new power plants,” he said.
The Las Brisas power plant had been part of a larger Las Brisas Energy Center project planned for Corpus Christi’s Inner Harbor.Economists had projected that in the first 5 years of construction and operation the project would create as 1,300 direct and 2,600 indirect jobs. Now none of those jobs will exist.
“These costly rules exceeded the bounds of EPA authority, incur tremendous costs, and produce no real benefits related to climate change,” Freysinger commented

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
