“President Obama blames high unemployment rate on ‘huge layoffs of government workers’ at federal, state and local levels.”
This is completely wrong. Extremely and mind-bogglingly wrong. Epically wrong.
First, let’s look at the numbers for private-sector employment. All figures come from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics:

Funny how 13 assumes video might be tampered with if it shows a pubbie in negative light, but a tweet clearly is reliable if it's anti-Obama
You should have read the article the exact quote was there:
Quote:
"The reason the unemployment rate is still as high as it is, in part, is because there have been huge layoffs of government workers at the federal level, at the state level, at the local level," he said. "Teachers, police officers, firefighters, social workers-- they have really taken it in the chin over the last several months. And so, what we're trying to do is to see if we can stabilize the budget."
What an idiot, no wonder they haven't made a dent in unemployment they don'
t even know what and where the problem is.
BTW what video do you refer to or is it just another attempt to deflect from Barry's incompetence.
Hope your gov contracts keep rolling in.

Maybe you should have posted that instead of a tweet...
You apparently don't know what "in part" means.
Also, was the rest of the speech / answers in the article? If not, you really don't know what his answers were.
I don't remember the video. and how is it deflecting given that I addressed your actual words?
but if you want to play the hypocrite here, I can make a point of pointing out every time you say anything that is unrelated to the post you cite or the thread you are posting in, since you're going to claim "deflection"
as for the video, I don't recall where / when it was, but if you're going to pretend you haven't done that in the past here, go ahead. the rest of us will know the truth.
edit: btw, what government contracts? i've never done any work with any government at any level. So maybe you can elaborate for us. Or was that just an attempt to -- what did you label it? -- "deflect"...

I didn't post a tweet I posted a link to an article that showed how absurd and incorrect Obama's take on unemployment in this country is/was.
If you don't know the problem you will never provide a solution.
Obama is a moron. His lack of experience in the world (never had a private sector job never created a job or met a payroll) is hurting the poor and unemployed. All he understands is greasing the palms of campaign donors.

The first quote in your post was a tweet.
You still don't know the rest of his words, and you're apparently glossing over a couple of his words.
Sorry you can't simply admit that, but those are facts.
Obama's a moron in your view, but he is smarter than you and smarter than his predecessor, and more importantly, he's a better President than his predecessor. Big question is who will the pubbies run against him? most likely, he'll wind up with an opponent who's more "moronic" and less competent than he is, since the pubbies are no better than the dems and fail on all the things you claim (sometimes rightly) re Obama.
Re: President Obama, Completely Wrong on Reason for High Unemployment
Some folks have a difficult thinking for themselves, so they resort to sources like the National Review or Red State and claim they know more than someone else, all the while they have no ideas except what the right wing thought police want them to regurgitate..
The choice is to take sound bites out of context, Andrew Breitbart has taught them well..
Would anyone expect National Review to ever say Obama did something right

I still want to know what government contracts you were referring to.
