How can you tell when President Obama is lying? When his lips move or as soon as he wakes up.
From Fox News:
President Obama has offered his support to two senators proposing to extend expiring federal unemployment benefits.
Republican Sen. Dean Heller of Nevada and Democratic Sen. Jack Reed of Rhode Island have proposed extending for three months benefits that more than 1 million Americans will lose Saturday if they are not extended. Obama called the two senators separately on Friday, describing it as an urgent economic priority.
Obama says the abrupt cut-off in cash assistance during the holidays will hurt economic growth and jobs.
Please, unemployment benefits have nothing to do with the economy. It's effect on the economy is very minimal, at best.
It's a benefit for people who have unemployed for a significant period of time.
It's an issue of whether people who have been unemployed for a 26 weeks and waiting to look for work at the last minute.
It's an issue of compassion or it's an issue of people not wanting to work, or an issue of people looking for the perfect job and not finding it.
The jobs are out there if people who want to work. They be low level jobs but they are jobs.
But to say this an issue of economics is a big fat lie by Obama.
