People are not a GOP Priority

Republican Priorities
Joplin disaster: No relief without budget cuts
Irene disaster: No relief without budget cuts
Big oil subsidies: Given without budget cuts
Tax cuts for the rich: Given without budget cuts

Republican strategy: Use victims as leverage for political agenda while giving carte blanche to the wealthy.

Message from DCC: Fight GOP Deregulation

You need to see this: House Majority Leader Eric Cantor is set to launch an all-out assault on environmental and labor protections.

Cantor’s scheme is yet another Republican attempt to sacrifice clean air, clean water and workers’ rights at the altar of the Tea Party fringe and the GOP’s special-interest backers like the Koch Brothers.

With Congress set to re-convene next week, we must act quickly to fight back. We are just $64,961 short of hitting our $500,000 Republican Accountability Fund goal before the Federal Election Commission (FEC) deadline hits this Wednesday. Can you help put us over the top?

Details of Cantor’s memo to House Republicans were revealed in today’s Washington Post:
"House Republicans will roll out plans Monday to fight regulations from the National Labor Relations Board, pollution rules handed down by the Environmental Protection Agency and regulations that affect health plans for small businesses."
As we’ve learned in the Wisconsin labor fight and in Republican statehouses across the country, there is no substitute for grassroots Democrats standing up and fighting right-wing interests who are desperately trying to roll back some of the most important progressive victories of the past century.

Top 5 Irene Responses

Top posts about Irene from Facebook and
  • No joke: RW media hit Obama for politicizing Irene.....by caring too much
  • hmm....response after a few days versus response within hours....Yeah, Bush was SO much better.....
  • The reason why I don't like to read those article comments... someone on this yahoo article blamed Obama for Hurricane Irene.
  • This administration was PRO-ACTIVE and not REACTIVE to a hurricane, unlike the Bush administration. Pres. Obama had his cabinet at "All Hands on Deck" when the hurricane was still in the Caribbean, days before it made land fall in NC. That's called leadership people!
  • Typical socialist--making the American taxpayers pay for a shortened vacation AND a plane to get from where he was to FEMA

CBO: Stimulus Saved America

ESTIMATED IMPACT OF THE AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT ON EMPLOYMENT AND ECONOMIC OUTPUT FROM APRIL 2011 THROUGH JUNE 2011

~They raised real (inflation-adjusted) gross domestic product by between 0.8 percent and 2.5 percent
~Lowered the unemployment rate by between 0.5 percentage points and 1.6 percentage points
~Increased the number of people employed by between 1.0 million and 2.9 million
~Increased the number of full-time-equivalent (FTE) jobs by 1.4 million to 4.0 million compared with what would have occurred otherwise.

This means that the ARRA increased our nation's output and decreased unemployment.

Obama's Vacation Days: 2 Times Fewer than Reagan, 3 Rimes Fewer than Bush and 4 times Fewer than You

At this time in his presidency, Obama took nearly 1/3 of the vacation days as Bush and 1/2 as many as Reagan at the same time.  He has taken 6.5 percent of his days in office as vacation days.  If you get Saturday and Sunday off then you get 26.67% percent of your days off.  That means Obama takes 1/4 of the vacation days compared to the average American.  The claims that he has taken a lot of time off? More partisan hackery.

Obama's Economy Plan

Obama's outline for proposals to help the US economy:
  • Extend the payroll tax cut so that middle class families have more money in their paychecks next year.  If you've got more money in your paycheck, you're more likely to spend it, and that means businesses of all sizes will have more customers. They'll be in a better position to hire.  
  • Extend unemployment benefits so that millions of workers who are still pounding the pavement looking for jobs can support their families
  • Pass a bipartisan road construction bill. There are over a million construction workers out of work after the housing boom went bust, just as a lot of America needs rebuilding.  We can put these workers back to work by rebuilding our roads and bridges and railways.  
  • Pass the patent reform bill to help our innovators and entrepreneurs get their job creating ideas to market faster.
  • Pass the trade agreements that will help businesses sell more American-made goods and services to Asia and South America, supporting tens of thousands of jobs here at home.
  • Put our bright, talented and skilled veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan to work. The President has proposed several initiatives to make sure our veterans are able to navigate this difficult labor market and succeed in the civilian workforce, including the Returning Heroes and Wounded Warrior Tax Credits, and his challenge to the private sector to train or hire 100,000 unemployed veterans.

How the Stimulus Affected the Economy


There would have been a consistent downward trend without the stimulus.  If the demand created by the stimulus was removed, there would be significantly fewer jobs and higher unemployment.  We would JUST be starting to improve and Republicans would be whining about how Obama didn't act quickly with a stimulus.
