President Obama sending jobs bill to Congress Monday
President Obama sending jobs bill to Congress Monday

President Obama will again press Congress to pass his American Jobs Act during a Rose Garden event on Monday morning.

A White House official said that the president will send his legislation to Capitol Hill on Monday evening when Congress comes back in session.

The president is scheduled to continue his road show this week with trips to Ohio and North Carolina.

On Monday, Obama will hold an event in the Rose Garden, an official said, where he "will call on Congress to pass the bill, which contains the kinds of proposals to grow the economy and create jobs that have been supported by both parties in the past."

"He will be joined at the Rose Garden event by people from across the country who would benefit from the American Jobs Act, including teachers, police officers, firefighters, construction workers, small business owners and veterans," the official said.

No Congress can stop a determined president.

And that's why I drive every morning past our monument to the servicemen we lost in Reagan's invasion of Nicaragua.

9. That's what seperates great presidents from average presidents. Great
presidents overcome adversity in Washington, average presidents don't.

5. Good. That way those
fucking republicans can turn it down right away.

I miss Hitler, Tojo and the Soviet Union. At least they were honest enemies of the U.S.

6. What excuses this time?
I am sure it will be voted down immediately but I can't wait to hear their excuses this time. Most of this Bill contains the RepubliKKKans' ideas so what will they say?

8. What they will say? Or what they mean, when they say it?
They mean 'O.K. America. Help us get that awful Negro out of the White House. Then we'll see about jobs and such. Deal?'

Sad thing is, America's an even-money bet to take the deal.
