Only with the help of narrow visioned Congressman.

The problems that weighed down stocks all summer show no sign of letting up.
U.S. stocks plunged Friday, erasing the week’s gains, as rising fears about fallout from Europe’s debt crisis overshadowed President Barack Obama’s plan to revive the U.S. job market.
The resignation of a key official from the European Central Bank was the latest sign of deepening disagreement over how to solve Europe’ economic problems. And it’s not clear to traders that the president’s jobs plan can pass through a divided Congress.

This affirmative action presidency has been a failure. America is looking forward to sweeping this lot out of the White House in 2013.

* Just how many more teleprompter demonstrations will the nation have to go through before the democratic party offers a LEADER?
* Obama has had 31 months -- of failed economic policies -- to do something about jobs. Today, we ARE STUCK at 9.1% unemployment, when promised "NOT MORE THAN 8%!" Truth be known, the real unemployment rate is closer to 20%!
* Jobs continue to flow overseas, along with our technology,-- even from Immelt in the White House!
* Our foreign policy is running amok! Where are we waging war today? Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, Pakistan, and WHERE ELSE? When will we run out of material? And Obama is talking about reducing the size of the military??
* And how about our public education system that he was going to revamp? THIS IS A REAL JOBS DRIVER FOLKS – and we are FALLING BEHIND! Seems that he is merely giving waivers for school incapable of improving standards.
* His consistent blaming of others has gone from sophomoric to ELEMENTARY! So tired of his political set ups -- as he is going to attempt to do next Thursday evening with Congress.

Any amount of work was less money I was receiving in unemployment compensation and absolutely stimulated the economy, as we used the money to survive. http://bit.ly/pjGOOw

The first sign of Obama's realization that his over-regulation is killing business came today when he halted the EPA's further ozone restriction regulations.
Maybe there is some Hope and Change coming to his job killing mandates.
