Hodes = Jobs….Not!

Washington, D.C. – Today, Paul Hodes released the following statement on the announcement that in May, the US economy created 431,000 jobs:

“This month, hundreds of thousands of Americans were able to return to work, earn a paycheck, and provide for their families,” said Hodes.  “But today’s numbers also make it clear that more must be done to encourage the private sector job growth that will put this recession behind us.  As our economy continues to grow, our focus must remain on the Granite Staters who are still looking for work.  We must move forward with job-creating policies that give our small businesses the confidence to expand, hire, and create a stronger New Hampshire economy.”

What Mr. Hodes alludes to but does not dare say, is that 95% of those 431,000 jobs were temporary census jobs.  In reality, almost no jobs were added.  So when he says more must be done to encourage private sector job growth what he means is we’re still at 10% unemployment.  What he’s also saying, but not revealing, is the forty or so press releases he’s issued since January of 2009 that mention creating jobs.  You know… jobs.  The good kind.  With fair wages for American families.  Fat jobs, skinny jobs, jobs that climb on rocks.  Jobs! In fact, you’d be hard pressed to find a statement from Hodes in the past 16 months that does not have the word “jobs” in it.

How about a quick trip through the not so way-back machine?

Liberals Think You Are Stupid

If you are reading this, then 30 mostly liberal groups believe you are too stupid to be able to filter out fact from fiction.

 

 

By: Jim Meyers: Newsmax

 

A coalition of more than 30 mostly liberal organizations has sent a letter to the Federal Communications Commission urging the agency to monitor “hate speech” on talk radio and cable news networks.

The groups assert in the letter that “hate, extremism and misinformation have been on the rise . . . as the media has focused on Arizona’s passage of one of the harshest pieces of anti-Latino legislation in this country’s history.”

The organizations include the Center for Media Justice, the Rainbow Push Coalition, the League of United Latin American Citizens, the National Association of Latino Independent Producers, and Common Cause.

“As traditional media have become less diverse and less competitive, they have also grown less responsible and less responsive to the communities that they are supposed to serve,” the letter states.

“In this same atmosphere hate speech thrives, as hate has developed as a profit-model for syndicated radio and cable television programs masquerading as ‘news.’”

The coalition did not mention any specific media outlets.

The groups also argue that the Internet has made it more difficult for the public to separate “the facts from bigotry masquerading as news,” The Hill newspaper reports.

The Internet “gives the illusion that news sources have increased, but in fact there are fewer journalists employed now than ever before,” according to the coalition.

“Moreover, on the Internet, speakers can hide in the cloak of anonymity, emboldened to say things that they may not say in the public eye.

“For these reasons, as the Commission deliberates how the public interest will be served in the digital age, it should consider the extent of hate speech in media, and its effects.”

The radicals are just trying to control the message.  And trust me, if they fail the only ones getting violent will be the left wingers.

“A Stranger in Our Midst”

Recieved the following by email:

If you don’t read anything else today please read the essay below by Robert Weissberg, Professor of Political Science – Emeritus at the University of Illinois, Urbana.  It offers by far the most accurate description of what most Americans are feeling but haven’t been able to put their finger on it. Part of the problem is the fact that it’s far easier to stir up a mob with a platform of lies if the audience is both under informed and filled with a sense of entitled. Combined with the participation of the media and you have a prescription for what we have witnessed over the last two years. We must not allow any of our fellow patriots to remain in the dark. I hope you will forward this to everyone you know. It is critical ammunition in the fight to retain our individual freedom.

From American Thinker:

A Stranger in Our Midst

As the Obama administration enters its second year, I — and undoubtedly millions of others — have struggled to develop a shorthand term that captures our emotional unease. Defining this discomfort is tricky. I reject nearly the entire Obama agenda, but the term "being opposed" lacks an emotional punch. Nor do terms like "worried" or "anxious" apply. I was more worried about America’s future during the Johnson or Carter years, so it’s not that dictionary, either. Nor, for that matter, is this about backroom odious deal-making and pork, which are endemic in American politics.

After auditioning countless political terms, I finally realized that the Obama administration and its congressional collaborators almost resemble a foreign occupying force, a coterie of politically and culturally non-indigenous leaders whose rule contravenes local values rooted in our national tradition. It is as if the United States has been occupied by a foreign power, and this transcends policy objections. It is not about Obama’s birthplace. It is not about race, either; millions of white Americans have had black mayors and black governors, and this unease about out-of-synch values never surfaced.

The term I settled on is "alien rule" — based on outsider values, regardless of policy benefits — that generates agitation…
