More Jobs Lost: How's That Stimulus Plan Working For You?

Remember when Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and President Obama promised that the unemployment rate would not rise above 8% after they passed the stimulus bill?
Well, the the economy lost another 125,000 jobs in June. From CNBC: "The US economy lost 125,000 jobs in June, more than economists had forecast, as thousands of temporary census jobs ended and private hiring grew less than expected. And though the unemployment rate unexpectedly fell to 9.5% from 9.7%, the lowest in a year, it was largely due to more people dropping out of the labor force.
The report was the latest sign that the economic recovery may be faltering."

Over 4100 jobs lost every day in June in the country.
This once again shows that the Obama administration along with the Democrat continue to screw things up.
While some conservatives will gloat about this, it is not a time to gloat. This is a national tragedy that affects almost everyone. But yet the politicians in Washington D.C. are playing games with the people who are unemployed. The Democrats want to borrow to pay for the unemployment extension and not use stimulus money or cut money from other parts of the budget. Meanwhile the GOP has not offered any solutions. They should be getting on their high horse with their solutions to this mess. If the main stream media won't cover it, then take out some advertising and show that they are not the party of "no".
And the Obama administration and especially Obama needs to grow up and start acting like an adult. Stop flying all over the country and partying down. You are no longer a kid in a candy store. Show some responsibility. Admit your mistakes and stop blaming other people. The economy and job situation has become much worse since you took over.
While government cannot completely solve an economic crisis, they can make it easier for business to hire more people.
And will we hear Harry Reid say this?
