SEAN HANNITY

War on Jobs?
Democrats seem to be fond of political wars.  Their creation of the conservative war on women is a prime example.  In that case, should we question whether or not liberals are waging a war on jobs? I told you yesterday how jobs is now the top concern for Americans.  Yet we've had two examples in recent weeks where liberal policies are resulting in job losses, rather than job creation.  Let's start with the latest battle over the minimum wage.  Barack Obama signed an executive order last week, increasing the minimum wage from $7.25 to $10.10 an hour for federal contracts.  This is yet another example of Obama over-reaching in his authority as president, and according to National Review the move may be unconstitutional.  That hasn't stopped Obama before and it likely won't in this case.

So Why Not Pay People More?
Liberals seeking to increase the national minimum wage found themselves on the wrong side of the PR battle when the Congressional Budget Office revealed yesterday that this increase would eliminate 500,000 jobs by 2016.  That number could rise to as many as 1 million jobs. The Obama administration has pushed back hard on the report that Americans will lose jobs as a result of their liberal ideology.   This morning on MSNBC, White House economic advisor Gene Sperling argued that this was a good thing because it would allow people to "work less."  Working less may be considered a victory for liberals, but how will they explain when people do not have the option to work at all because jobs have been eliminated?  What's clear is that between ObamaCare and their quest to increase the minimum wage, liberals are harming job creation at a time when jobs is the top concern for Americans.
  
Obama Regret
Regret is a terrible feeling because there is nothing you can really do to alleviate a sadness or disappointment felt by something that has already happened.  Such is the case for many Americans with their vote to reelect Barack Obama. According to a new poll by The Economist/YouGov.com, “Given a chance to do it all over again, only 79 percent of those who voted for President Obama would vote for him again and 71 percent of Obama voters now inclined to vote for somebody else 'regret' their vote to reelect the president.”  If the election were held today, based on these figures, Mitt Romney would be president.  You can read more of the specifics here in the Washington Examiner but one that stuck out is that 100 percent of Hispanics who voted for Obama say they would vote for someone else if the election were held again. It’s clear that Barack Obama's promises and rhetoric are not living up to reality and failing to improve our American way of life.  It seems he will leave us with a legacy of stubborn radicalism, rather than a better, stronger America.
