With job creation at the top of the economic wish list as the nation slowly recovers from the deep recession, and with the Afghanistan decision made, Obama last week convened a jobs summit. The truth is, and everyone knows it, there’s little more that can be done to create the millions of jobs needed to offset those lost the last two years, unless the government is willing to spend billions more on additional stimulus. This puts Obama in a precarious place; does he risk adding to the already huge deficit, risking runaway inflation down the road, or does he stand pat and hope the economy creates more jobs than anticipated? Perhaps intervention from another agency will save the day. It can’t hurt to ask. “Tis the season.

#1 on my list is Real Healthcare Reform.
#1 on my list is that your #1 wish doen’t happen.
#1 on you Wish List? Wow, Don, I think you need to re-think your priorities. As much as I would like to see health care reform, my #1 is bringing our troops back from Iraq/Afghanistan but that isn’t going to happen…..
As disappointed as I am with how that is going with this administration regarding the Wars, it really isn’t a difficult decision in 2012 if the choice is something like Palin (or Huckabee or Romney or Gingrich or Paul or Pawlenty or Dobbs) vs Obama.
I see you listed Palin first – she really gets to you lefties, doesn’t she?
I just went down the list of potential candidates from recent GOP polling.
