Obama To Knock Republicans And Emphasize Jobs Thursday

Obama travels on Thursday to Buffalo, New York, where he will give a speech on the economy that highlights his administration's achievements after the most recent U.S. jobs report showed the largest increase in jobs in four years, the official said.
