1,035,000: Construction Jobs
Lost Under Obama

Cybercast News Service, by Terence P. Jeffrey Original Article

Posted By: KarenJ1- 10/5/2012 12:53:23 PM Post Reply

When President Barack Obama signed his economic stimulus legislation on Feb. 17, 2009, he said that one impact of the act would be to create jobs for 400,000 people building and rebuilding the nation's infrastructure. But despite a price tag that the Congressional Budget Office now says was $833 billion, the economic stimulus of February 2009 did not create 400,000 new construction jobs. In fact, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics there are now 1,035,000 fewer construction jobs in the United States than there were in January 2009, when Obama was inaugurated, and 925,000 less than in

HARRISBURG, Pa. - Politicians are often criticized for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time that's taken the wrong way. But state Representative Babette Josephs (D-Philadelphia) is being criticized for what she refused to say. The drama unfolded at what was billed as a non-controversial House State Government Committee meeting Wednesday morning. Republican Chairman Daryl Metcalfe (R-Butler) asked Josephs to lead the group in the Pledge of Allegiance; a rather routine request that became anything but when Josephs refused. "Based on my First Amendment rights and based on the fact that I really think it's a prayer.

Washington police Thursday night were still piecing together the details of how a Washington & Jefferson College football player became a homicide victim after he and a teammate were robbed while walking home from drinking in a local tavern. McNerney was walking back to campus with Zach DeCicco from Main Street Brew House on South Main Street when they were approached near the rear of Lombardi’s Auto Service by as many as six males wanting to steal a cellphone,

Barack Obama will fall on November 6, 2012, losing the presidential election in a landslide to Mitt Romney. After the president's performance in the first debate, this is becoming more obvious. Yet now is not the time to be complacent. We are engaged in a battle for the heart and soul of America, and an electoral defeat for the president will not change that. Now is the time to fight. Living in the Bronx, in the past, I have been guilty of self-censoring. I always expressed my opinion but refused to get into arguments over politics.

European abortion activists were deciding on their next move Thursday, after Moroccan authorities prevented their floating abortion clinic from docking at a port on the country’s Mediterranean coast. Morocco is the first Muslim country to be targeted by the controversial Dutch group, Women on Waves, which for the past 11 years has been sailing converted boats to predominantly Catholic countries where abortion is restricted, and then offering chemical abortions in nearby international waters. Since the boat is registered in the Netherlands, it operates under Dutch law when in international waters – that is, beyond the 12-mile limit –

A fact check of claims made by Mitt Romney during Wednesday’s domestic-policy debate shows numerous falsehoods, the magnitude of which could damage the electoral prospects of the Republican challenger. The three most egregious misrepresentations are as follows:“23 million Americans are out of work.” False. Barrett Blankenship of the Bureau of Labor Statistics states that Romney’s claim is unequivocally false.

Mitt Romney didn’t just beat Obama on Wednesday night. He also beat the liberal media.[Snip] Evidence of liberal panic is everywhere. In the hours after the debate, the mood in the MSNBC bunker was near-suicidal--and it’s in tortured moments like these that all pretence of objectivity disappears. Chris Matthews (a former Democrat staffer turned TV motor mouth who undoubtedly talks in his sleep) ranted that Obama ought to watch MSNBC to learn how to fight conservatives. Ed Schultz was “stunned” and Rachel Maddow thought it might be sort of a draw (in the same way that the Titanic's encounter

The communist Cuban regime has arrested Yoani Sanchez, Cuba's best-known blogger, whose evocative writing on the nature of the communist regime and the dreary life in Cuba have won her international awards. It was always a matter of curiosity as to why Sanchez hadn't been arrested before, given what she wrote. But with developments today, it appears it was only a matter of time. Castro's thugs got her when she was going to blog about a kangaroo-court trial in Cuba. Castro's men have put some small fry on trial for the mysterious car death of Oswaldo Paya,

LONDON — Radical preacher Abu Hamza al-Masri and four other terror suspects can be extradited immediately to the U.S. to face charges there, Britain’s High Court ruled Friday. Judges John Thomas and Duncan Ousely rejected last-ditch applications by al-Masri, Khaled al-Fawwaz, Babar Ahmad, Adel Abdul Bary and Syed Ahsan. Thomas said these are the final proceedings in the suspects’ years-long battles to avoid going to the U.S. Britain has said it will act right away to remove them. Al-Masri, who turned London’s Finsbury Park Mosque into a training ground for radical Islamists, is wanted in the U.S. on

The United States Commander-in-Chief, Barack Obama, has figured out what caused his pathetic performance in the general election's first presidential debate this week: It was Mitt Romney's fault. The day after the listless, bored, defensive Democrat scared the cliches out of his media pals and gifted his opponent with a poll bump, Obama offered a manufactured explanation for his poor showing in front of about 50 million people: He was completely thrown off-stride for the entire 90 minutes and 17,000 words by the appearance on-stage of a different Mitt Romney than the one Obama has caricatured

He'll occasionally give a great speech, but if you look at him in his news conferences, which where you don't have a prompter and the president has more control, he gets to ask to decide who the questioner is and he gets to decide how long he talks, and what parts of an answer he'll give, he never does well. So this is who he is. I think people -- he's intelligent, but he isn't half

FISHERSVILLE — Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney emphasized job creation and economic recovery for an overflow crowd at Augusta Expoland on Thursday that saw him hit on many of the same points he covered during the presidential debate Wednesday. Romney criticized President Barack Obama for offering a recovery plan the challenger called “more of the same” — except for the president’s proposal to raise taxes on the wealthy. “I don’t want to raise taxes on anybody,” Romney told the crowd. A statement from Obama’s campaign in Virginia accused Romney of shifting policy stances and misleading statements about his position on Medicare.

The first post-debate polls are just starting to get released, and in both Ohio, Florida, and Virginia (if you believed the wildly skewed media polls showing insurmountable leads for Obama), Mitt Romney has bounced back in ways the corrupt media said was impossible. According Rasmussen, in Ohio, the race is statistically tied among likely voters with Obama ahead by only a single point: 50-49%. In a tighter screen meant to gauge enthusiasm and "certainty" of voting, it's Romney who takes the lead, 52-48%.

LOS ANGELES – It looks like Seth MacFarlane's Oscar honeymoon may be over. Last week, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences selected the creator of the "Family Guy" and "American Dad" animated series to follow in the footsteps of legends like Johnny Carson, Bob Hope and Billy Crystal to host next year’s Oscars ceremony. But this week, MacFarlane is being criticized following a recent episode of one of his FOX cartoons. On Thursday, the Parents Television Council (PTC) issued an alert to its members, requesting that they file a formal complaint with the Federal Communications

Solis said the claims — by Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) and former General Electric chairman Jack Welch — that her department fudged the employment numbers were “ludicrous.” "I'm insulted when I hear that, because we have a very professional civil service organization where you have top, top economists," Solis said on CNBC.

To those who have been willing to see Barack Obama for the man he is, the newly released video of the racialist stupidities he spewed for 40 minutes in a 2007 speech in Virginia is not the least bit surprising. The video only confirms what has long been obvious—that the President is a bitter, angry man who views the United States as a profoundly racist nation—hence the need to “fundamentally transform” it, as he says, “brick by brick, block by block.” Only such a man—an America-hater to his core—could have willfully allied himself for years with

WASHINGTON A team of FBI agents arrived in Benghazi, Libya, to investigate the assault against the U.S. Consulate and left after about 12 hours on the ground as the hunt for those possibly connected to the attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans narrowed to one or two people in an extremist group, U.S. officials said Thursday. Agents arrived in Benghazi before dawn on Thursday and departed after sunset, after weeks of waiting for access to the crime scene to investigate the Sept. 11 attack.

Obama's Debate Con?

Barack Obama has always been a fine actor and Wednesday night he deftly played the role of a debate loser with Oscar-worthy brilliance. I think it was a con. During my college days I hustled pool to make ends meet. The "hustle" was to give the "mark" enough adrenaline that he really thought he could beat me with money on the line. That meant losing decisively, with feigned emotion, early and often. Isn't that what's happening now, after the first debate, a simple hustle to create the appropriate emotions in the Obama base?

In September 1962, the Beatles went into EMI's Abbey Road studios in north London to record their first single. The A-side was Love Me Do, one of the least original in John Lennon and Paul McCartney's burgeoning songbook. Through it ran a harmonica riff played by Lennon and shamelessly cribbed from Bruce Channel's recent hit, Hey Baby. The lyrics were rudimentary: "Love, love me do … you know I love you … I'll always be true." No one then recognised a sound with power to change the world.

As soon as ex-General Electric CEO Jack Welch fired off a tweet questioning today's just released "unbelievable jobs numbers," the media went into a frenzy talking about how "conservatives" were launching conspiracy theories. Well, that's handy for the media and the Obama campaign, but it's not just "conservatives" who are confused by a full 0.3% drop in unemployment when only 114k jobs were created. CNBC is as confused as the rest of us: Job growth remained tame in September, with the economy creating just 114,000 net new positions though the unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent
