It is still all about the jobs

"Managing to find a job will be easier if you're a manager, according to the latest employment ad survey from The Conference Board.

But as the nation celebrates Labor Day, the traditional holiday for honoring the American worker, the odds of finding work appear to have declined last month. The Conference Board's survey of help wanted online ads found that the number of positions advertised dropped by 57,100 in August from July, falling to 4.23 million from 4.29 million."

How long are the Democrats in Congress and this administration willing to let the American public struggle with a job market that is this weak?

Frankly, if the Democrats came back in a couple of weeks, pushed through a true, WPA style jobs program, I believe that their prospects for November would shoot through the roof. People respect direct, timely action that helps them out. Instead, what we're getting is more talk, less action, more tax cuts, less jobs.

Jobs are the single most important issue to the people of this country right now. It is time for Democrats in Congress and Obama in the White House to start putting people first instead of corporations.
