Americans approve of Obama’s jobs bill

Don't know the exact number but the economy was losing 500,000 + jobs a month

 

And nothing's changed, even after throwing trillions at the problem. Debt that will strangle all of us to death for no useful purpose whatsoever.

 

Just stopping the 500,000 + jobs losses per month was a huge change

 

Was it higher than today's rate as you imply?

 

I never implied that.I said Obama stopped the 500,000 a month job losses

UE was going to go higher regardless to who was in office if they came into office with the economy losing 500,000+ jobs a month

 

Cold harsh reality rears it's ugly head.

 

Who controlled Congress when we were losing 500,000 jobs a month? What's that cold harsh reality?

 

Unless Congress has a 2/3rd majority The President controls the budget.There was not a 2/3rds majority during any period of that chart

The President proposes the budget,The President can veto it if he doesn't like what Congress sends back to him

United States federal budget


The Budget of the United States Government is the President's proposal to the U.S. Congress which recommends funding levels for the next fiscal year, beginning October 1. Congressional decisions are governed by rules and legislation regarding the federal budget process. Budget committees set spending limits for the House and Senate committees and for Appropriations subcommittees, which then approve individual appropriations bills to allocate funding to various federal programs.

After Congress approves an appropriations bill, it is sent to the President, who may sign it into law, or may veto it. A vetoed bill is sent back to Congress, which can pass it into law with a two-thirds majority in each chamber.

 

Doesn't this assume every congressman votes along party lines on every spending bill?

 

I have never seen someone who chooses to remain as willfully ignorant as range rover.
