(Daily Caller) Gov. Mitt Romney quickly dismissed today’s effort by President Barack Obama’s campaign to downplay the bad news in the June jobs-report issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics at 8.30 a.m.
Obama’s chief strategist, David Axelrod, tweeted out a diversion at 9:01 a.m. that showcased a June 2006 video of Massachusetts Governor Romney saying that a new executive’s policies can’t lower the unemployment rate immediately.
But Romney used his 10:00 a.m. press event to refute the video, telling reporters that Obama’s “policies have not worked… over four years.â€
An unemployment rate that has remained for “forty-one months above 8 percent pretty much defines lack of success,†Romney said in response to a reporter’s shouted question about the video after the press secretary had announced the event was over.
Obviously, when Obama’s had well over 3 years to Do Something it can’t possibly be his fault that the jobs report stinks. And has been stinking. The man takes responsibility for nothing that happens under his watch thanks to his policies, such as they are.
