 “I am told that Governor Romney’s new running mate, Paul Ryan, might be around Iowa the next few days,” he said while in Council Bluffs, Iowa. “He is one of the leaders of Congress standing in the way.

The American automobile industry has come roaring back…So now I want to say what we did with the auto industry, we can do it in manufacturing across America. Let’s make sure advanced, high-tech manufacturing jobs take root here, not in China. And that means supporting investment here. Governor Romney … invested in companies that were called ‘pioneers’ of outsourcing. I don’t want to outsource. I want to insource.

Debunk #1: Ryan/GOP blocked passage of 6083 after it cleared - committee with bipartisan support

[ In Reply To ..]
The "yay" Ryan vote cited in the article was on HR 6233 (Agricultural Disaster Assistance Act of 2012), a stop-gap "drought" measure. Only problem is that President Obama was referring to HR 6083 (Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2012), a much larger bill that Ryan want to decimate because of its Food Stamp content, which he is determined to slash and voucherize into a sharply reduced "block grant" arrangement. He and his party, tabled the measure before going on their extended 2-plu-mointjh summer "break" from doing absolutely nothing.

why is it that if someone presents a fact in debate you incorrectly use the easy spin word? Why don't you counter with a fact instead of "spin"?

HR 6083 hasn't been voted on... - SK1

[ In Reply To ..]
I read through the transcript of the president's speech and he doesn't state what he's referencing when he says "a farm bill." While it's true that HR 6083 is called the FARRM Bill, HR 6233 could also be considered "a farm bill."

HR 6083 has just passed committee and hasn't been voted on by Congress, so we don't know how Ryan will vote on it.

I would say that this one could go either way, depending on how one wants to spin it.

What? "How one wants to spin it" - overrules logic?

[ In Reply To ..]
This is what the president said on August 13, 2012:

"He is one of the leaders of Congress standing in the way. So if you happen to see Congressman Ryan, tell him how important this farm bill is to Iowa"


Did Obama mention any vote here? No. What he said was, "standing in the way" as in blocking passage (through the House). Note the date of the Iowa speech. The HR 6233 stop-gap bill had been passed August 2, while at the same time, HR 6083 was staring them in the face, having just come out of committee Jul 11. With HR 6233's short-term kick-the-can-down-the-road measures in place, house republicans then proceeded to block further action on HR 6083. Why? Because a HUGE component of that bill contains Food Stamp provisions that Paul Ryan famously not only wants to slash, but he wants to promote permanent changes to the program that would curtail federal funding to the states over the long term.

So this begs the question: If 6233 passed before August 13 and HR 6083 was blocked at the same time that vote occurred, right before Congress left for its 2-plus-month summer "break," which farm bill do you suppose Obama meant when he said Ryan was "one of the leaders standing in the way."

Debunk #2: Who supports tax credits to bring jobs home - Romney or Obama?

[ In Reply To ..]
Conversely, who supports tax breaks for outsourcers, Romney or Obama?

July 19, 2012: "Senate Republicans on Thursday blocked the No.1 item on the president's congressional "to-do-list," refusing to allow a vote on a bill that would give tax breaks for companies that "insource" jobs to the U.S. from overseas while eliminating tax deductions for companies that move jobs abroad."

Not so fast.... - SK1

[ In Reply To ..]
Obama should be careful about talking about the automobile industry "roaring back." We lost $1.3B when Fiat assumed Chrysler's debt and the government still holds 500 million shares of GM, which is talking about claiming bankruptcy in 2013.

Speaking to outsourcing in general, from the Washington Post: "American jobs have been shifting to low-wage countries for years, and the trend has continued during Obama’s presidency. From 2008 to 2010, U.S. trade with China alone cost about 450,000 American jobs because of the growth of Chinese exports, said Robert E. Scott, a pro-labor advocate at the liberal Economic Policy Institute. That figure was less than in previous years, but the decrease was probably tied to the U.S. economic slowdown, which crimped demand for imports."

As to the Senate bill, I couldn't find anything that spoke to why Republicans blocked it. I only found articles that used the same quote cited above. They may have had legitimate reasons.

Here's what happened on that...sm - JTBB

[ In Reply To ..]
Republicans tried to put an amendment on the bill that would have repealed Obamacare (like that had anything to do with this bill). Because of that, Ried didn't put it up to a vote because it would have been voted down anyway with that amendment. Because he wouldn't allow the amendment, pubs refused to vote for it.

There is a lot of info out there about it..look for "bring jobs home bill."

[ In Reply To ..]
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, had warned Democrats before the vote that his party would want to amend the bill -- possibly with hot-button issues like repealing the health care reform law or extending the Bush-era tax cuts for all income levels.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, responded that those amendments were not germane to the bill and he would not allow votes on them.

http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/19/politics/senate-bring-jobs-home-bill-blocked/index.html


Senator McConnell: (9:35 AM) Spoke on the Democrats' Insourcing bill. "Could I ask the majority leader one question related to the vote we're going to have later today. A number of my members are asking in connection with voting to proceed to the bill whether the bill will be open for amendments."


Senator Reid: (9:36 AM) Responded "The only amendments that I have seen, are three in number. That the Republicans have suggested. To do away with the Affordable Care Act, to reestablish the Bush tax cuts and then the Hatch tax measure. That, has been the tradition here with republicans, has absolutely nothing to do with outsourcing. So unless Republicans get serious about legislating on the legislation we have, the answer would be very doubtful."

There are 2 exact bills out there by Stabenow. One was voted on and one was sent to committee and has not been voted on yet.

On 7/19, this is what the Senate did/voted on:

Motion to proceed to consideration of measure made in Senate. (consideration: CR S5169, S5170, S5175, S5176, S5180-5181, S5181-5186, S5188-5190)

7/19/2012:
Cloture on the motion to proceed to the measure not invoked in Senate by Yea-Nay Vote. 56 - 42. Record Vote Number: 181. (consideration: CR S5189; text: CR S5189)

I don't know how Ryan would be able to block the voting if it never left the Senate. He's a HOUSE Representative, NOT A SENATOR. He has no control over what the Senate does.

Another View of Obama by the Jewish - backwards typist

[ In Reply To ..]

"John has already responded to President Obama’s absurd claim about being a Judaism genius. But that may not even be the most offensive argument Obama made at yesterday’s meeting with Conservative Jewish rabbis, according to the Haaretzreport. When asked about his personal views on Israel — the kishkes question again — Obama reportedly went for the some-of-my-best-friends-are-Jews defense:"......


"These friendships were one of the reasons why the pro-Israel community was initially unsure about Obama’s true personal feelings on Israel during his 2008 campaign. Since then, those early concerns have been substantiated again and again by Obama’s own public actions and statements on Israel. The American public still supports the Jewish state, which means Obama grudgingly supports it when necessary, but it’s clear his heart isn’t there. His lame response when questioned on his true feelings — citing knowledge of Judaism and friendship with Jews — is just the latest example of that disconnect."


(I missed getting the above link for the quotes, now can't find it).


"But Campaign 2012 may complicate the usual formulas. And I'm not referring to leftover political scars from then-Senator Obama's spotty voting record on Israel, or the president's past association with the likes of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright."


"More recently, and more importantly, the administration's (quickly retracted) position that Middle East peace negotiations must begin with pre-1967 borders gave further pause to those who question the president's real commitment to Israeli security. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's aggressive condemnation of the position to a visibly agitated president during a highly publicized Oval Office press conference reenergized concerns in Jewish circles. (Such incidents perhaps explain Mr. Romney's 2-1 polling advantage over the president in Israel.)"


"Despite these hiccups, recent polls show the president with a 35-point advantage over Governor Romney among Jewish voters. Old habits are indeed hard to break. And this old habit will likely bring about similar numbers on Election Day. That is, unless the nuclear ambitions of Tehran's ayatollahs force Mr. Netanyahu's hand."


http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/oped/bs-ed-ehrlich-jewish-vote-20120902,0,6874484.column


“Obama remains the favorite of Jewish voters but appears to be running a bit weaker among them than he did in 2008, given the 10-point drop in Jewish support for him compared with a five-point drop among all voters.”

Debunk #7 is embedded in the cited reference - on GOP failure to support tax cuts

[ In Reply To ..]
It's a 2-phase debunk: PResident Obama said, "Virtually every Senate Republican voted against the tax cut last week (re: Dec 2011)." First check the definition of the qualifier, "virtually." It means almost, or nearly. Then read the cited Examiner article and pay special attention to the reference to S. 1917 (Middle Class Tax Cut Act of 2011)...the actual bill to which Obama was referring. Only one republican, Susan Collins of Maine, voted for it, meaning the president's original statement is as accurate as can be.

Debunk #8: GOP doesn't "do" tax hikes - on the wealthy.

[ In Reply To ..]
That seems to be the bone of contention in the cited reference used to disprove the president's claim of proposals that Democrats and the GOP have supported in the past. History tells a different story:

Abraham Lincoln created the first federal income tax to finance the Civil War.

William Howard Taft endorsed the 16th Amendment, the federal progressive income tax, which became part of the Constitution at the end of his term in early 1913.

Herbert Hoover raised the top income tax rate from 24 to 63 percent in 1932, in the worst moments of the Great Depression.

Dwight D. Eisenhower argued for and succeeded in a top income tax rate over 90 percent during the 1950s, in order to help promote a balancing of the budget.

Richard Nixon raised the capital gains tax rate from 25 to 35 percent in 1969, and supported the concept of a minimum tax.

Gerald Ford signed legislation raising the minimum tax on the wealthy, and getting rid of some loopholes used by the wealthy to evade taxes.

Ronald Reagan supported the idea of capital gains being taxed as ordinary income, and raising taxes on corporations.

HW Bush signed the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 which raised fuel taxes with a 10% surtax on the top income tax bracket (resulting in a top marginal tax rate to 31%) plus new excise taxes on alcohol and tobacco products, automobiles and luxury yachts.

Robert Baroz:  "It was technically correct.  Yes, I did lose my position three times within four years in the Boston Public Schools. "  What President Obama did not say was that stimulus money and/or the $15 billion jobs bill passed in Feb 2010 helped keep Mr Baroz in the classroom, the appeal being that there are others like Robert who were not so lucky.  


President Obama became aware of Mr. Baroz's story when he attended a jobs bill press conference and spoke to White House aides attending the event.  He didn't seem to have a problem with the content of the president's message or his support for investment in education.
