After Obama disbanded his Jobs Council, the unemployment rate ticked up to 7.9% yesterday. Jobs are getting less and less attention by major media in the glare of all the debate about guns and immigration which this administration considers highest priority.
Lawmakers don't have time to tackle helping the millions of unemployed as lawmakers spend week after week debating and posturing to vote to raise our debt ceiling once again. But oh wait. This is only temporary. They will have do this exercise all over again before May 1st when the debt ceiling or fiscal cliff if you will appears again. We are doomed.
Why isn't jobs the number one news story anymore?

If jobs were the number one news story, Obama wouldn't be in the Oval Office today. Obviously people don't care much. They are happy being on the dole. Who needs a job when you have Santa Claus in the White House?

The Stimulus was Obummer's plan to jump start the economy and create jobs. Here's some information to ponder...
Obama has disband his job council after his biggest and boldest plan spending $800billion of our tax dollars to create jobs has for all intent and purposes failed. It appears he has moved on to more important things like gun bans.
Where is the outrage?

The gun issue is the hot topic. People have are use to the bad news on jobs so unless unemployment goes up to 8% again you won't hear much until it hits the 6.5% that the Feds have set to start inching up the interest rates.

This Rutgers survey indicates that people surveyed believe that the top reasons for unemployment is cheap labor from overseas and illegal immigration taking jobs here.
It's telling that Obama considers gun control and helping illegal immigrants a priority over employment.
