Twenty-five reasons to vote for Obama: #14--42 Million Jobs

Since 1960, republicans have held the White House for 28 years.  The Democrats have controlled the White House for 24 years.  During the republicans time at the helm, 24 million jobs were created.  While the Democrats were in power, 42 million jobs were created.

There is a reason for this--think to yourself how many times you've heard Daddy Warbucks and Jughead mention the American worker.  The answer is zero.  They don't and they won't.  They'll talk about the "job creators" and how we should pander to Wall Street and the financial community and eliminate "regulations" but they'll never talk about people who actually work--autoworkers and cashiers and steelworkers and janitors and construction workers and teachers--because they don't give a fuck about them.  They're just effluvia--as Paul Krugman noted, it is with utter disdain that they view those of us working our asses off to keep this country running.

Jobs will be created over the next four years, and it's just a matter of whether you want more and better paying (President Obama) or less and worse paying (McJobs Mitt).

Not much of a decision if you ask me.

Peace,
