Obama Fights To Survive, Can you see the desperation?

Obama throws a weak left hook,  Republicans hits home with a hard right hand wicked jab in this boxing ring of politics. Read some of the comments from both sides below.  Obama starts the round with his weak left hook and the Republicans counter with the right hand wicked jab knocking Obama down for the 10 count in this 15 (15 week) round fight to the Mid-term elections. Republicans win first round!

Here are some comments made on Friday about jobs.

President Barack Obama “This report is a sign that our economy is getting stronger by the day. … I want to emphasize that most of the jobs this month that we’re seeing in the statistics represent workers who have been hired to complete the 2010 census, so these are temporary jobs that are only going to last until the fall and that may be reflected in future jobs reports. But even if you put those temporary jobs aside, there’s no doubt that we saw another month of private-sector job growth.”

Economist Diana Furchtgott-Roth “This is a shocking jobs report, especially after the billions of dollars Congress has spent on different stimulus programs. … The job market clearly is not improving, and Congress needs to take a different tack, such as making the current tax rates permanent and cutting spending.”

Georgia Rep. Tom Price “The Obama administration seems to have plenty of jobs to offer to Democrat primary challengers. It’s too bad most of the 15 million unemployed Americans aren’t eligible. With the number of potential workers increasing every day, new job opportunities can’t come quickly enough. Unemployment has been well over 9% for an entire year now, and in April long-term unemployment reached its highest level in 60 years. Clearly, these problems are not going to be solved with handouts to political cronies or temporary Census jobs that will disappear again in a few months.” SOURCE

Commander of N.C. Highway Patrol has resigned, Dem. Gov. Beverly Perdue takes heat

Do you consider Dem. Gov. Beverly Perdue of North Carolina a good leader for the Old Tarheel State? Or….is Beverly Perdue just another far left liberal like Obama? I am also thinking back to NC Governor Beverly Perdue signs the North Carolina Racial Justice Act
Governor Beverly Perdue has signed Senate Bill 461, the North Carolina Racial Justice Act, which permit defendants and inmates to challenge death sentences by presenting statistical evidence of racial bias. I read this in the same article click here:
Racial equality is not achieved by allowing convicted murders sentenced to capital punishment live, setting quotas, nor creating laws limiting convictions for crimes due to race.  In my opinion Perdue isn’t doing a good job as Governor of North Carolina!

Head Of Scandal-Ridden NC Highway Patrol Resigns

In the last two years at least nine North Carolina Highway Patrolmen have resigned or been dismissed for misconduct, often involving sex or alcohol.

Governor Bev Perdue talked tough last week when she demanded an end to the embarrassing behavior. But she shocked many by refusing to clean house in the patrol’s upper ranks.

Governor Perdue became agitated when questioned about her role in getting Glover promoted. Perdue’s office will not say whether the governor asked Glover to resign and Colonel Glover refuses to comment, as well. SOURCE
