Dems fail on jobs

President Barack Obama and the liberal members of Congress and the media continuously blame the Republicans for blocking all the jobs legislation that has been submitted for congressional approval. The truth is that Democrats are the reason that no jobs bills have been passed.

The Republican House has sent at least 15 jobs-creating bills to the Senate and Majority Leader Sen. Harry Reid is sitting on them. The president has yet to submit a balanced-budget proposal to the House and Senate.

The president continues to blame Republicans for not passing his jobs bill in the Senate. He's hoping that the people don't realize that Democrats are the majority in the Senate and the Republicans can't reject anything in the Senate unless quite a few Democrats vote with them.

Hopefully this trash talk that Obama is spreading on his campaign tour won't be believed by the voters.

By the way, the law says a president isn't supposed to campaign on taxpayers' money. How is it he's getting away with it?
