This recession and resulting job losses is just nuking us. And some think it might become a double dip recession.

You know, I get tons of DCCC and White House requests for election donations every day and I don't give them a penny. Why? Because Obama doesn't have the guts to ramrod the small business lending stimulus bill through the Senate and he's dragging his feet forever on his Green Jobs/Infrastructure campaign promise. He's got to stop playing politics and get these dam things in motion...now!!!

This next election - for all of the rhetoric about mosques in NYC etc. - will be all about jobs. Here in Michigan (where we have had an unemployment rate around 14--13-14% for YEARS) the front runner for the governor's race is the Republican candidate - a businessman who so far doesn't seem to give much of a crap abut abortion, gay marriage, and other usual Republican hot button issues. Therefore he has a lot of appeal to voters of both parties and independent voters.
