Obama, Pelosi et al failed at job creation

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) just hopped on
television to claim that Republicans have been in charge of Washington
for 210 days and still haven’t created jobs.  In case there are one or
two Americans who still don’t understand why Democrats lost last
November and gave Pelosi a well-deserved boot out of her post, she
provided a fine reminder today, shining a bright spotlight on her
massive failures and penchant for misrepresenting reality.
 
Democrats held the House (with Pelosi in charge), Senate and White House
for two years and did nothing to create jobs. Republicans now hold only
the House and Pelosi is blaming them for not creating jobs. Wow — the
chutzpah is amazing. The bitterness palatable.
 
Republicans, with the prodding of the Tea Party movement, were able to pull President Obama away from his demand for a clean debt-ceiling bill so that he could have a blank check with our money. (Apparently that is Vice President Biden’s definition of a terrorist.) And while Obama, Pelosi, Reid and their Democrats in Congress wasted nearly $1 trillion on the failed stimulus bill they promised would create 4.5 million jobs and which ended up creating NO jobs, not one Republican voted for it, yet John Boehner has spent the better part of his term as Speaker trying to find a way to clean up Obama’s mess. That stimulus money would have come in mighty handy these past few weeks. Worse, unemployed Americans did not get to become employed taxpaying citizens helping to fill the federal treasury’s coffers. Double whammy. Double fail.
 
Pelosi’s tacky taking to the podium and blaming Republicans for the lack of job creation is indicative of why she is no longer Speaker. She was a failure. Obama is a failure. And now it will fall to Republicans to clean up their mess. But then, that’s why voters sent Republicans to Washington — to clean up after Obama, Pelosi and Reid.
