Obama Jobs
American Spectator, by The Prowler


THE PERMANENT CENSUS
The Obama White House, stung by criticism of the recent May employment report, which showed virtually no job growth beyond the 411,000 temporary census workers, is attempting to find ways to put as many of the 411,000 in permanent government jobs.

According to White House sources, the Labor Department is spearheading efforts to identify government jobs created or enabled by federal stimulus programs, as well as unfilled bureaucrat jobs, where the temporary workers might be placed.

"There are policies in place that would allow us to put those people into federal or possibly stimulus-related jobs fairly quickly," says one White House source. "They are already in the pipeline given the employment forms they filled out for the census work."



Federal hiring rules quietly eased and adjusted by the Obama Administration over the past year will further enable the administration to place those temporary workers, according to the White House source. For example, the Obama Administration has cut back the number of forms job seekers must fill out, ended the practice of a skills and knowledge essay, allowed the hiring process to take place with only the use of a résumé and writing samples, and, perhaps most important, eased hiring rules based on the "most qualified" requirement, so that less experienced prospective employees might be hired over better qualified or more experienced competitors.

ALL THE RIGHT THINGS
There were peels of laughter coming out of the offices of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable when President Obama claimed that speaking to the CEO of British Petroleum would have been unhelpful because "when you talk to a guy like the BP CEO, he's going to say all the right things to me."

"Apparently the President hasn't been listening to all those CEOs he's been meeting with over the past 15 months," says a senior executive with the U.S. Chamber. "Unless all those ladies and gentlemen have been lying, those private White House lunches and dinners and coffees with the President have been fairly frank. Mr. Obama may just not like what he's hearing, but it's laughable for him to say that his experience is that executives only tell him what they think he wants to hear."




hope you fücking liberals who put this ass hole in charge are happy now...these are the stupid people about be to put in charge of your healthcare.

Two Census Bureau managers fired for creating at least 10,000 bogus questionnaires to meet deadlines
New York Daily News, by Samuel Goldsmith


Two Census Bureau managers from a Brooklyn field office were fired after their bosses found they faked household surveys to meet deadlines, the Daily News learned.

Instead of pounding the pavement and knocking on doors, the corner-cutting people-counters mined the phone book and Internet to make up answers to questionnaires, regional director Tony Farthing said.

The managers - turned in by whistleblower employees - were caught last week. Now, at least 10,000 surveys need to be done or redone, officials said.

U.S. To Train 3,000 Offshore IT Workers
Information Week, by Paul McDougall


Despite President Obama's pledge to retain more hi-tech jobs in the U.S., a federal agency run by a hand-picked Obama appointee has launched a $36 million program to train workers, including 3,000 specialists in IT and related functions, in South Asia. Snip: Following their training, the tech workers will be placed with outsourcing vendors in the region that provide offshore IT and business services to American companies looking to take advantage of the Asian subcontinent's low labor costs. Under director Rajiv Shah, the United States Agency for International Development will partner with private outsourcers in Sri Lanka to teach workers there advanced IT skills like Enterprise Java (Java EE) programming, as well as Staff added text

Organizer admits to paying
‘Occupy DC’ protesters

Daily Caller, by Michelle Fields

A liberal organizer told the Daily Caller on Thursday afternoon that he paid some Hispanics to attend “Occupy DC” protests happening in the nation’s capital. TheDC asked that organizer whether he was paying the group to attend the protest, and he conceded that some protesters “aren’t” volunteers. “Some of them are volunteers. Some of them aren’t,” he explained. “I can’t identify them. I’m not going to get into an identification game.”

Scarborough on Rome Riots: Occupy
Wall Street 'Creating New Jobs' By
Forcing Rebuilding of Damaged Property

NewsBusters, by Noel Sheppard


MSNBC's Joe Scarborough marvelously mocked the Occupy Wall Street movement Monday by joking about how the destruction of private property during this weekend's riots in Rome will actually create jobs.

"That will help with the construction industry in Italy," kidded Scarborough as pictures of the riots played on the screen. "You have to rebuild Rome because people burned it down" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

MIKA BRZEZINSKI, CO-HOST: I want to ask Sam Stein about the Occupy Wall Street protests which are now one month old, and they took a global turn over the weekend. 951 cities in 82 countries were scheduled to take part in demonstrations after online organizers called for a worldwide rally. The mayor of Rome said $1.4 million in damage was caused after rioters who broke away from a peaceful protest smashed windows and torched vehicles around the city.

JOE SCARBOROUGH, CO-HOST: Now, see, that will help with the construction industry in Italy.

BRZEZINSKI: Oh, lord.

SCARBOROUGH: So, they, no seriously.

BRZEZINSKI: Stop it. Just stupid.

SCARBOROUGH: No, you have to rebuild Rome because people burned it down. That’s actually a plus up. This Occupy Wall Street group, look at that, they are creating new jobs.

Car Company Gets U.S. Loan,
Builds Cars In Finland

ABC News, by Matthew Mosk, Brian Ross


With the approval of the Obama administration, an electric car company that received a $529 million federal government loan guarantee is assembling its first line of cars in Finland, saying it could not find a facility in the United States capable of doing the work.

Vice President Joseph Biden heralded the Energy Department's $529 million loan to the start-up electric car company called Fisker as a bright new path to thousands of American manufacturing jobs. But two years after the loan was announced, the job of assembling the flashy electric Fisker Karma sports car has been outsourced to Finland.

"There was no contract manufacturer in the U.S. that could actually produce our vehicle," the car company's founder and namesake told ABC News. "They don't exist here."

Obama stimulus cash goes to foreign workers
Washington Examiner, by Conn Carroll


A Labor Department Inspector General report released this week found that $7,140,782 in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds went to four Oregon forestry services firms who hired no U.S. workers. From the report:

Only two Oregonians were listed on the employer recruitment reports, indicating that workers in Oregon were likely unaware these job opportunities were available. In fact, although 146 U.S. workers were contacted by the three employers regarding possible employment, none were hired. Instead, 254 foreign workers were brought into the country for these jobs.

Reality Check


This guy worked at Republic Steel for 10 years until its closing in 1983.

The best line he says that he ever heard there was when this young black kid was being reprimanded for the last time and terminated.

The black youth said to the shop foreman, “you’re firing me because I’m black!”

The boss said, “No, we hired you because you're black.

We’re firing you because you’re useless!”


I hope that we will remember this in November 2012. ......

Whirlpool: 5,000 Jobs
Going Down The Drain

Forbes, by Steve Schaefer


Corporate earnings have been mostly better than anticipated this quarter, but that was not the case for Whirlpool Friday and the home appliance maker is slashing its workforce as a result.

Whirlpool, which makes washing machines, refrigerators, dishwashers and other household products, recorded adjusted third-quarter earnings of $2.35 per share on $4.6 billion in revenue. While the latter figure missed the $4.7 billion estimate by a modest margin, earnings per share were a far cry below the Street’s $2.75 estimate.

“During the quarter, we experienced weaker than expected global industry demand and elevated material costs,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Jeff Fettig. Whirlpool was also “negatively impacted by recessionary demand levels in developed countries, a slowdown in emerging markets and high levels of inflation in material costs.”

Democratic Jobs Bill Goes Down
National Journal, by Dan Friedman

Senate Republicans blocked a $60 billion infrastructure bill Thursday, making the bill the second piece of President Obama’s jobs proposal to be voted down in the Senate.

Republicans and a few Democrats filibustered the broader $447 billion jobs bill last month. The vote came is a scripted floor exchange, with Democrats expected to quickly defeat an alternative GOP infrastructure funding bill. The bill garnered 51 votes--not enough to overcome the 60-vote cloture threshold.

The Democratic bill, which includes a $10 billion national infrastructure bank, is funded by a 0.7 percent surtax on incomes of more than $1 million a year. That is nonstarter for Republicans who argue the surtax shows the bill is an electoral ploy aimed at painting the GOP as obstructing White House efforts to boost employment.

“Democrats are more interested in building a campaign message than in rebuilding roads and bridges. And frankly, the American people deserve a lot better than that,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in an animated floor speech earlier Thursday.

Fed's Forecast Is
Bad News for Obama

Townhall, by Donald Lambro


WASHINGTON - If President Obama ever expected the economy to improve significantly before the 2012 election, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke buried that hope this week.The Fed's grim forecasts of what the Obama economy will look like throughout next year were bleaker than its modest earlier estimates. High unemployment will persist throughout 2012 along with sharply slower economic growth rates. The Federal Reserve took no action at this time to deal with the chronically weak economy, sending yet another unmistakable message to the White House and a divided Congress that any real, long term improvement will require a change in fiscal policy.

It's good thing that republicans like Mitch McConnell are looking out for Whirlpool CEO Jeff Fettig who made $14,440,697.00 last year.

That 0.7 percent surtax would've drove him into the poorhouse.

Instead of creating jobs for the middle class, this is what the GOP is all about, protecting the "job creators" like Jeff Fettig.

Dems just don't get it. New taxes do not create new jobs. And the more important point isn't even about the surtax. The more important point is why spending is escalating instead of decreasing. Got it? Fix the spending problem. Looks like we are expected to shell out again to support Greece when it refuses to help itself but then we refuse to address our own spending insanity.

I am coming to the opinion that all this runaway spending (however intentional or just plain stupidity) is a means to force the world to accept a one world currency just like it says in the Bible. The former strength of the dollar was the biggest impediment to that end, but no more.

The Do-Nothing But Kill Jobs GOP Congress


Senate GOP Puts Protecting Millionaires Before Creating Jobs (Again)

The third time was not the charm today when it came to persuading Senate Republicans to abandon their never-ending quest to prevent the wealthiest Americans from having to pay their fair share and to instead join with Democrats to put hundreds of thousands of Americans back to work. Earlier this afternoon, Senate Republicans again voted unanimously against 450,000 Americans jobs.

The Tally
•Oct. 11: 100 percent of Senate Republicans voted against millions of American jobs in order to protect the very wealthiest Americans — the top 0.5 percent — from having to pay their fair share.
•Oct. 20: 100 percent of Senate Republicans voted against nearly 400,000 jobs for teachers, firefighters, and copsin order to protect the very wealthiest Americans — the top 0.5 percent — from having to pay their fair share.
•Today: 100 percent of Senate Republicans voted against 450,000 Americans jobs rebuilding our crumbling roads, bridges, airports, and other critical infrastructurein order to protect the very wealthiest Americans — the top 0.5 percent — from having to pay their fair share.

Survey Says: Public Agrees That the GOP is Trying to Sabotage the Economy to Hurt Obama

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) infamously said:


The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president. That’s my single most important political goal along with every active Republican in the country.

According to a new poll of Florida voters, it looks like the public is catching on to their plans:

With 51 percent of voters saying that jobs and the economy are the most pressing issues in the nation today, 49 percent said they believe that the Republicans are intentionally hindering efforts to boost the economy so that President Barack Obama will not be reelected. Thirty-nine percent disagreed. As expected, most registered Democrats (70 percent) agreed that Republicans are intentionally hindering the economy and hurting Obama, but independents (52 percent) and even some Republicans (24 percent) also agreed.
