Biden: February Job Losses ‘May Match or Exceed January’ Statistics

How refreshing to have an administration that talks hopefully and realistically at the same time!
The money spent on the projects like the one Biden mentioned should eventually help bolster the economy as well as have long term positive impacts on lessening transportation costs and pollution. It is wonderful to have forward, long-range thinking in our government.

jpt quotes Biden:
“I’m genuinely optimistic. It’s going to be a rough year. It’s going to be rough until we climb out of this.”
–> Oh right: “we”, burbles Biden from the tub of butter in which “our” representatives dwell.
“We will judge the success or failure of our administration at the end of our four years based on whether or not the standard of living of the middle class has increased, or not. That’s the bottom line measure.”
Well, duh: the answer to that will be NOT. These useless grinning quislings had better judge themselves on whether the standard of living for the POOR is increasing, because that’s where most of the “middle class” is going.
Everybody KNOWS this is nowhere.

Biden comments echoed those of Christina Romer, chair of the Council of Economic Advisers, who warned on Tuesday that “we’re now thinking the first quarter is gonna be pretty lousy.” Romer was citing last week’s second reading of fourth quarter GDP getting revised down more than expected.
Wow, these people are just incredible. It takes a report from LAST qtr, which comes out 2/3 the way thru THIS qtr for this woman to figure out that THIS qtr is going to be “lousy”!!!!
Lets see….do you think she is ready to tell us that the Detriot Lions might not make LAST years play-offs?

lets just unionize everyone in the US. that will do wonders to keep jobs here in thsi country.
Where is the reporting about the union bosses on their corporate jets and open bar!!!
Sure the hookers are there as well.

“Biden promoted the Middle Class Task Force, which he chairs,”
How DARE the so-called “Democrats”, even NAME something the “Middle Class Task Force”?? Where’s the “Poverty Task Force”?
Pandering to the still-employed while ignoring the already-desperate AND having the so-called “president” urge the marginally-prosperous to buy stock in the middle of a crash is just nuts. Just. nuts.
Let’s hope Feingold (and — go figure — Bayh) prevail over these nitwits, in the short run, and stop the stupid spending bill.

Human Intelligence:
Don’t worry Biden and the Democrats
wouldn’t know a middle class person
if he or she were standing in front
of them!
The Dems have been spreading this lie
for years about being for the
middle class when everything they do
is geared to help the welfare class!

“The Dems have been spreading this lie
for years about being for the
middle class when everything they do
is geared to help the welfare class!”
Horse-puckey, the “Dems” are always courting the rich, except when they need to get somebody elected over a “Republican”.
Don’t look now, but Bill Clinton “reformed” welfare out of existence, which effectively orphaned a lot of children who’d have been better off with a parent or two, in order to produce and fund another bazillion “training” non-profits, each with highly-paid executive officers, purporting to teach the utterly impoverished how to act and look “middle class” without an income, in order to “compete” in the “job market”.

Did they let goofy Biden out of the attic again?

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES:
There are 17 jobs available working under Treasury Secretary Geithner that are unfulfilled. He is desperate to find somebody to fill these positions before the economy tanks.
If you have any experience at anything, have paid all your taxes on time, and have passed Accounting 101, please apply now. You could become famous as part of the administration that saved the world from disaster. Must be 21 and drug free but exceptions can be made.

Hey, Joe, quit telling us about the past and do something about the now and future.
Every day you have been Vice President the economy has gotten worse and America is worse off.
The Obama mantra of using the crutch of whining about past Presidents as if it gives them the excuse to bungle things up worse than the are and they can blame everyone else is tiring.

Speaking from his super secret meeting at the Fountainblue in Miami I suppose — I wonder if he told the unions they will get their half trillion investment in Obama back …
New age of openness. Now if Cheney had met with oil company execs, that would be different … Right Jake?

Thanks for reporting this in a straight-forward manner. If one were to only listen to Rupert Murdoch, one would think that the AFL-CIO meeting was some kind of super-secret conclave, and that there weren’t dozens of reporters in there.

Has the tail got hold of the dog?
“Much continues to brew there with little positive result and no positive prospects (aside for gold-digging by exploiters of the continuing spigot of USA tax-payer funds, that is),” quoted from a European blog on the middle east. Exploiting USA tax-payer funds is a common notion in other parts of the world. Huh. How about that.

Hmmmm! Biden said what??? He doesn’t know what he is doing. He is the worse VP in this history. I missed former VP Cheney. Cheney is better than Biden.

Miami should pay for their own roads, they don’t even have state income tax there. Ask them where that money went.

I just don’t know what all of you are complaining about, you paid your dues the Union spends them as they see fit, they have to spend the dues somewhere. (Just not on you) They have been doing the same thing every year having lavish parties and retreats and no one ever complained.
Apparently you as workers are only good for the dues.
