Tim Kaine’s Endless Summer… One Year After Declaring “Recovery Summer,” Stimulus Failure Continues To Highlight Former DNC Chairman’s Reckless Spending, Broken Promises WASHINGTON — In case former DNC Chairman Tim Kaine’s campaign lost track of the date and forgot to remind Virginians, it’s been a full year since Kaine and his fellow Washington Democrats declared that it was “Recovery Summer,” promising that their $787 billion in reckless deficit spending would fix America’s ailing economy. As the Richmond Times-Dispatch notes, “…the nation has lost 7 million jobs during roughly the same period that federal spending has grown by $1 trillion. A huge chunk of that sum was eaten up by federal stimulus funding, which raises reasonable questions as to why the economy has not been more stimulated.” As they also note in response to an Obama Administration official’s insistence that the stimulus was working, “[i]f he’s right, we shudder to imagine what failure would look…
Unemployment Rises To 9.1% In Wake Of Kaine & Obama’s Failed $787 Billion Stimulus
In yet another reminder that President Obama and liberal former DNC Chairman Tim Kaine’s $787 billion stimulus failed to create jobs while driving our national debt past $14.3 trillion, the U.S. Department of Labor reports today that national unemployment has risen again to 9.1 percent. Today’s rise in unemployment is just the latest development to highlight the failure of Obama and Kaine’s tax-and-spend economic policies in Washington. While Kaine and the Obama Administration promised their $787 billion stimulus would create millions of new jobs and keep national unemployment below 8 percent, the United States has actually lost more than 1.8 million jobs since Kaine cheered as his fellow Washington Democrats rammed it into law – and national unemployment has remained above 8 percent now for 28 consecutive months. “As the unemployment rate rises to 9.1 percent, Virginians are reminded once again that the Obama-Kaine agenda of reckless spending has failed…
Kaine Fiddles While Virginians Suffer From $4-A-Gallon Gas
Even Fellow Democrats Call Kaine-Backed Tax Hikes “Laughable” & “A Gimmick” As a new USA Today/Gallup survey shows nearly 70 percent of Americans suffering “financial hardship” thanks to a national average of nearly $4-per-gallon gas, Virginians are reminded that liberal former Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Tim Kaine is actually attempting to drive the price of fuel up by carrying his fellow Washington Democrats’ water on behalf of their energy tax hikes. As USA Today reports: As gas prices hover near $4 a gallon, nearly seven in 10 Americans say the high cost of fuel is causing financial hardship for their families, a new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds. More than half say they have made major changes to compensate for the higher prices, ranging from shorter trips to cutting back on vacation travel. For 21%, the impact is so dramatic they say their standard of living is jeopardized. Nationally, the…
