Obama's Success

President Barack Obama will be visiting Ohio this week to show how his loans to automakers have successfully created jobs.

Toledo Blade:

....On Friday, President Obama will tour the Chrysler’s Toledo Assembly complex where the company make Jeep Wranglers. He will speak with plant workers, a White House official said. The complex also include a factory which makes Jeep Liberty and Dodge Nitro vehicles.

According to the White House, the President will also hear firsthand from local business owners and residents about “the importance of the auto industry resurgence to the community as a whole and the economic devastation it would have faced had Chrysler been allowed to fail.”

......According to the report, since GM and Chrysler emerged from bankruptcy, the auto industry has created 115,000 jobs, its strongest period of job growth since the late 1990s. GM, Ford, and Chrysler have all returned to profitability, and in 2010, the Detroit Three gained market share for the first time since 1995, according to the White House report.....


Thank you, President Obama!

However, if the country would have listened to people like Ohio's John Kasich, John Boehner, and Rob Portman and not helped the American car makers, none of this job creation would have happened.  You almost wonder if some of these Republicans want to completely destroy the government like Grover Norquist said, "My goal is to cut government in half in 25 years to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."  (Note:  Tim Pawlenty, Kasich, and Paul Ryan are all followers of the Norquist philosophy.)

It might also be the intent of the Republicans to return to the days of peasants and the landowners.  With what I've read of plans by Ohio's GOPers to cut the minimum wage (see Plunderbund), you start to wonder if Republicans want to improve their own lives, rather than those of every citizen.
