I did use it, and I've posted many economists that say the American Jobs Act will improve the economy and that the GOP Jobs Plan will provide no discernible results.

I can't find any economists that pan the Presidents plan in favor of the Republican Jobs plan, and apparently neither can you.

What did those economists say about Stimulus One and how did that work out? This stimulus is half the cost so what do you expect to happen?

How is that hope and change working out for you.

Solyndra 2?

From ABC News, today:
With the approval of the Obama administration, an electric car company that received a $529 million federal government loan guarantee is assembling its first line of cars in Finland, saying it could not find a facility in the United States capable of doing the work.

Vice President Joseph Biden heralded the Energy Department's $529 million loan to the start-up electric car company called Fisker as a bright new path to thousands of American manufacturing jobs. But two years after the loan was announced, the job of assembling the flashy electric Fisker Karma sports car has been outsourced to Finland.

How in the hell can you support this empty suit in the WH? Don't you have any pride?

Solyndra? Now this?

Frantically trying to change the subject doesn't fool anyone.

300 economists agree: We really do need a second stimulus and infrastructure investment. But right-wingers just say No

Again, where are the economists that say the American Jobs Act won't help the economy? And where are the economists saying the GOP Jobs Plan will have any discernible result???

So you believe the stimulus helped the economy and we have the results I have posted over and over? Doesn't bode well for the economists

So you have no problem wasting a half billion dollars on Solyndra and another half billion dollars on Finland plust well over 1.2 billion on other solar companies that are going bankrupt? You truly are a leftwing ideologue where results never matter, just the rhetoric.

If you glance up at the top of the page, you will see this thread is about the American Jobs Act. Where are the economists that think it would not help the economy? Where are the economists that prefer the GOP jobs plan?

You cannot even admit that the waste of money on Solyndra, Finland, and other Green Jobs destroys your credibility. Then you attack a Wall Street Article that gives you economists names that say the stimulus was a failure. You deserve Barack Obama, the rest of us don't. Join the other 39% that support what he is doing. they are out of touch with reality too.

What does it cost those economists if they are wrong? They were wrong on the first stimulus and the consequences are trillions added to the debt and 2.6 million net jobs lost. Why is it that liberals cannot admit when they are wrong or they could be wrong? Guess it is easier when it isn't directly your money.

Thank you for admitting you couldn't find any economists that panned the American Jobs Act in favor of the GOP Jobs plan!

Now are you going to tell us what happens if these economists are wrong? Why do you buy economists views when they were wrong about stimulus one as the results show?

Do you even know what the Obama Jobs Plan is and how it will help create jobs? Looks to me like anything Obama says or does you buy regardless of the end results? We are down a net 2.6 million jobs since he took office and since Stimulus One. Now you have no problem spending another half trillion dollars. When does the liberal madness end?

So what is your problem with it? Please be as specific as possible seeing as you think you know all about and I assume have reviewed all 155 pages.

It funds state responsibility jobs for one thing, once the federal funding runs out the states have to pick up the cost or we are back to where we started. I don't believe the Federal Taxpayers in TX should be funding police, fire, and teachers in some other state or community. Do you?

THAT'S your response...'I know I am but what are you'??? I'm not the one espousing the glorious benefits of the American Jobs Act.
