Video: Obama Doesn’t Regret ‘Recovery Summer’ Fails to Mention Net Job Losses

I think it was Major Garrett who asked President Obama if he regrets celebrating Recovery Summer. Obama said the economy is moving in the right direction. I don’t know how he can defend this economy without snorting. (H/T Breitbart)

He forgot to mention during the press conference that August saw a net job loss of 54,000. Jake Tapper picked up on it.

When May’s job numbers showed a net increase of 431,000 jobs – 411,000 of which were Census jobs – the president did note that “most of these jobs this month that we’re seeing in the statistics represent workers who’ve been hired to complete the 2010 census.” But in those June 4 remarks the president didn’t detail just how many of the 431,000 jobs were Census jobs – 95% of them — and he cited the overall report, and its deceptively large number as evidence that businesses are “starting to hire again. Workers who were laid off, they’re starting to get their jobs back. Companies that were almost forced to close their doors are making plans to expand and invest in new equipment.”

Today the president refrained from mentioning the net job loss of 54,000 jobs, or ever that August brought a net job loss. He said that the 67,000 private sector jobs created were “not nearly good enough” and said he would “in the weeks ahead” be detailing “further steps to create jobs and keep the economy growing, including extending tax cuts for the middle class and investing in the areas of our economy where the potential for job growth is greatest.”

He also forgot to mention that 1 in 6 Americans are now on public assistance. What a tool.

    Did you hear that stammer toward the beginning of his answer? Talk about a “tell,” as in poker.

    Then, he followed up with saying “I” several times.

    He also said “you guys” and “where we’re at.” From a Harvard grad? Sheesh.

      That’s what happens when he’s off the old ‘prompter.

    What a phony! His insulting arrogance is what keeps my attention. If this keeps up, we may be looking at one of the only Presidents that are impeached and REMOVED FROM OFFICE. This pathetic charlatan is a pox on America.
