Diane Sawyer's segment on the Chinese firms coming in to repair the major highways of the nation highlights Obama's first or second Executive Order back in 2008. Claiming that the "greatest economic crisis of our lifetime" was the condition of our major highways, he sent billions to firms to do this work. From Alabama through Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Delaware, and New Jersey, there were barriers narrowing all major highways to one lane, hundreds of earth moving machines by he roadside, and NO workers. WHERE DID THOSE FUNDS GO? The work has not yet been carried out.

And, we all know who created this situation that stacks so heavily against the citizens who need to work these jobs instead of illegal aliens; the Democrats.

This doesn't only apply to kids who need the job before THE job, it also applies to adults. Despite what the liberal mantra is about EVERYBODY needs a college education, not everybody is cut out for it. Of course the liberals say otherwise, and that is because the colleges and universities want to money rolling in to justify the board's grabbing of a nice chunk of it.

Extreme confidence from the Obama camp, because beating Romney's going to be a cinch, apparently:
 

First, in the view of the Obamans, Romney is still a weak candidate. His stump skills continue to be uneven at best, with speeches plagued by awkward jargon and passionless rhetoric. They believe his tenure as head of Bain Capital and his term as governor of Massachusetts conceal vulnerabilities yet to be unveiled. “No one’s ever looked at Romney’s record, and there’s a lot there,” said one senior campaign official. “He developed this set of values at Bain about what...
