Can't even get his own party to bring it forward.
It's just sitting there gathering dust.

Poor Obama. He wants to put government workers back on the payroll (1 year ?) with this bill.

Did you even read the link? Obama as usual has a bill that will get the american people back to work and help balance the budget, but as always the right wingers are holding it up in congress. Obama wants the right to give a valid reason why they want to keep teachers, fire fighters, construction workers, police officers and countless others out of work.

It is doing it's intended job. Pointing out the GOP refusal to work at the jobs problem.

"Many Congressional Democrats, smarting from the fallout over the 2009 stimulus bill, say there is little chance they will be able to support the bill as a single entity, citing an array of elements they cannot abide.

Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the majority leader, has said he will put the bill on the legislative calendar but has declined to say when."

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs......... ................

Just like the stimulus.....you do remember don't you... it worked so good....

But, talking about obama job plan....if this plan was so amazing, and will get people to work....why did obama go on vacation before (knowing he had it) releasing his plan? I mean really.....if the plan is that great and will work...why wait?

And why does Reid say that the Senate has more important matters to deal with first ? The Senate mind you.

Exactly. The republicans are on vacation right now again. If they cared about the country in even the slightest way, they would be at work.

And what about the Senate and Reid's statement that there's more important issues that take priority over Obama's bill ?

Yes when they get back from vacation the first thing on the agenda is to debate a bill whether China is manipulating it's currency. I think dirty harry will keep it tabled as long as possible because these twits don't want to vote for another waste of 500 billion. Then they will come out with something blaiming the repubs for holding it up and these tools will squeal like as witnessed on this thread already.
