Obama Says He Will Focus on Jobs This Year – Just Like He Said Last Year

In August 2011 Barack Obama said he would not rest until every American had a job who wanted one.
Then he went on vacation.

Fast forward to February 2013…
Barack Obama told Democrats he’s going to focus on jobs this year in his State of the Union Address.
The UPI reported:

U.S. President Barack Obama told House Democrats Thursday his State of the Union address will focus on job creation, education and energy independence.

Speaking at the House Democratic Issues Conference in Leesburg, Va., the president repeated a theme from his 2012 re-election campaign, that “our economy succeeds and our economy grows when everybody is getting a fair shot and everybody is getting a fair shake and everybody is playing by the same rules.”

“Because I believe that is a growth agenda — not just an equity agenda, not just a fairness agenda — that is a growth agenda,” he said.

“And that means that what you’ll hear from me next week, I’m going to be talking about making sure that we’re focused on job creation here in the United States of America,” Obama said.

Obama is the worst jobs president since the Great Depression.
