From:
Amakua
(e-mail
him)
In
my January letter,
I warned readers that the only job Obama was certain to
create is the “snow job.”
As sure
enough, Obama’s 3 to 5 million promised new jobs
(depending on when during his campaign he was
lying to us)
are nowhere in sight. Instead the U.S. unemployment rate
is approaching 10 percent.
Worse, Obama’s
chief economic advisor,
Christina Romer,
predicts that unemployment will increase into 2010. [Obama
Advisor Sees Unemployment Rising Until 2010,
by Joshua Brustein, New York Times, May 10, 2009]
As bad as the
economic news is for unemployed Americans, it gives the
GOP its
best chance
to make meaningful gains in the
2010 Congressional elections
and build a foundation for recapturing the White House in
2012.
Republicans
have to show how unchecked
legal and illegal immigration
has
cost Americans
hundreds of thousands of jobs.
Amakua writes that he is one of Hawaii’s
“few” natives not
completely
taken in
by the “Obama
hype”.
Peter Brimelow
writes:
I agree with this analysis,
but it irritates me that the GOP might benefit, for the
reasons laid out
here
by our
Ellison Lodge.
Sometimes, I just think we should go to the generic term
“American Party”—maybe
the GOP, maybe
not. |
