White House: No Plan, No Specifics, No Strategy, No ResponsibilityWatch a montage of evasive answers from yesterday's White House press conference. The only specific, definitive answer Jay Carney gives is that the White House bears no responsibility for the historic downgrade in America's credit rating. breitbart.tv who voted for this bozo ?

The corps are investing plenty and creating PLENTY of jobs, in China, Mexico, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc. To the extent that your right (including your implication that they are not investing in the US) sounds like need to reduce regulation and corporate taxes here...

Bentway, > You bought that "the wealthy are the JOB CREATORS" spew of crap hook, line and sinker! I never once said anything about the "wealthy." The reality is that we're all "job creators." You're just repeating the "rich vs. poor" nonsense that even Obama is using as an excuse for the S&P downgrade. > The corps are investing plenty and creating PLENTY of jobs, in China, Mexico, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc. So? They're also investing in plenty of job creating here. > HOW did the DJIA (not the NAZ) go from 3000 to 11000 on the Clinton watch with those ruinous, hostile Clinton tax rates? Fine, let the Bush tax cuts expire ... on everyone. Meanwhile, cut entitlement benefits across the board. Raising taxes will only affect the 1/2 of Americans that actually pay taxes. Gotta make the other half chip in as well. Simpson-Bowles is an excellent starting point. Wouldn't you agree, or are you going to just blame one side for that commission falling apart? Tenchusatsu
