RIP: Obama’s Jobs Pivot Ended Today

Remember when President Obama “pivoted” to jobs this week?

Apparently that pivot is already over. In fact, it looks like Obama and the Democrats are pivoting in exactly the opposite direction – right back to their liberal anti–jobs agenda. From Politico:

“The White House, congressional Democrats and their allies are plotting an August recess offensive to promote President Barack Obama’s climate change plan and head off Republican opposition.”

So we’re confused, Mr. President – do you want to focus on jobs and the economy, or your job-killing liberal agenda?

“The Obama administration has launched its own campaign to sell the climate plan, with the president dispatching key members of his administration — including newly confirmed EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy, Interior Secretary Sally Jewell and Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz — to take part in “an aggressive outreach effort,” a White House official said in an email.”

This decision is just further proof that President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and the Democrats are only paying lip service to jobs and growing the economy. In reality, the Democrats are going to spend their summer doing the same thing they always do – pushing job-killing policies that voters simply aren’t asking for.
