More "Common Sense" Cluelessness from Eric Cantor
Wednesday, December 2, 2009
What in god's name is Eric Cantor talking about here? "Common sense solutions on how we can get America back to work?" Sounds great, but so far, what have Republicans actually proposed? That's right, nothing of any substance or seriousness.
And what have Democrats done? Well, according to a new report by the respected, non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, "President Barack Obama’s economic stimulus package has generated between 600,000 and 1.6 million jobs." The Democrats' economic recovery package also "lowered the nation’s unemployment rate by between 0.3 and 0.9 percentage points while boosting the economy by between 1.2 percent and 3.2 percent." Now that's the kind of "common sense" most of us can deal with.
Meanwhile, who knows what Clueless Eric Cantor's flapping his gums about...I suspect he doesn't know what he's talking about himself.
