http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2011/09/25/obama-to-blacks-stop-complaining.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter#commentsPresident Barack Obama launched into a fiery speech Saturday night at the Congressional Black Caucus awards dinner, where he told black leaders to "stop complaining" and fight for jobs and opportunity. "Shake it off," Obama said. "Stop grumbling. Stop crying. We are going to press on. We have work to do."
I have to agree with President Obama. We ALL have to stop crying and complaining (and bickering) and PUT ON OUR MARCHING SHOES to battle for jobs and opportunity.
If we don't, no one is going to do it for us!

FOX NEWS SPUN BULLSHITE, WAKE UP they will NEVER say anything nice about the MAN and will spin everything they can. Ya know, can't have the black democrat in the white house do anything right.
Tell FOX to STFU and put pressure on their party to pass a dam JOBS bill. This will NEVER happen since the Speaker and Mitch Mcturtle want Obama to fail. THEY WANT HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT. WHAT DON'T YOU BAGGERS GET?

Fox twisted the headline, but the President did say that. Check out my link from the AP. It was NOT said in a negative manner, it was meant to inspire people to TAKE ACTION NOW!gettheminNOVEMBER wrote:America1st wrote:Obama Tells Congressional Black Caucus Jobs Bill Will Put People Back to Work

Apparently you think Fox is fair and balanced
That Obama can force Boehner to bring his jobs bill to the floor
That the GOP and TPers want JOBS

I think everyone is missing the whole point of the President's comment! I'll say it again, like him or not, he is right! This isn't about being Dem, Repub or Tea Party! It is about doing something other than whining, complaining and arguing over whose party is right and what party is doing nothing. At this point, WE have to do something or expect to live in this hell for a long time!!

If Obama had a supportive congress we could be on the right track right now. I think if it was the other way around the dems would play games with peoples lives.
I will contact my reps and do what I can. Then I am going to watch the yanks whomp the sox again

Just because I posted the Fox link doesn't mean I support their viewpoint and agenda.
You should stop labeling people and making up fantasies about them and ask questions before you jump to conclusions that are wrong

Point your finger where is belongs. There is plenty of blame to go around. You really think fox will say anything positive about the president? Who writes the bills by the way? Obama just signs them. He can't sign what NEVER hits his desk.DUH?

This is what President Obama said, word for word. No matter what your party affiliation and who you blame, his words are true and this is what we should be doing now!
“Stop complaining. Stop grumbling. Stop crying. We are going to press on. We’ve got work to do,” he said.

America1st, I'm sorry for what I see as abusive and unnecessary rhetoric regarding your posts, which I find are valuable.
Hang in there. This is not indicative of this Forum.

Because this forum is a SUPPORT website for the unemployed. It is not a website to re-broadcast ultra right wing conservative talking points.
Also since you will NOT hear this on FOX. it is the Democrats & Independants that support(and always have supported) working people and the middle class, not the Tea Party and Republicans. They are the ones responsible for this disaster and continue to do so even today. Their goal is to crash the economy so badly that people will forget and blame Obama in 2012.
So in answer to your question, while I do not care for some of the things Obama has done(or not done-he needs to be a lot meaner) considering voting for or supporting the other candidates is just not an option any of US should even consider. The only reason we even have UE benefits is due to the Democrats-All of us should be able to remember the "Party of NO" during the last negotions to extend benefits.

The message from President Obama is spot on! No matter what your political affiliation, he is right! No more whining, complaining, giving up - we have work to do! This will only be successful if we all work together!DesperateInRI wrote:This is what President Obama said, word for word.

Easier to say, if you're not homeless, or need a dentist.

No, unfortunately we are still unemployed or unemployed. None of us have gotten our lives back yet, still waiting.Lacey wrote:DesperateInRI wrote:The message from President Obama is spot on!

I know what you mean about needing a dentist or other medical treatment, believe me. Although I am not homeless (yet), I can't stand the way I am living.
If we don't stand up, stop complaining and take action to fix this mess, millions more will be in the same boat.

I understand completely, am living, your post!
But still believe, until those "millions" hit the street,
as in the current "Occupy Wall Street Protests", that are in the second week & "Blacked Out" by the Media
Well ......
There is a "Powder Keg" under the surface of this current economy!

Waters discussing Obama's stop complaining comments,
CBC member Maxine Waters reacts to Obama: We're not complaining
Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., a member of the Congressional Black Caucus who's been critical this year of President Obama's response to the high unemployment within the black community, said she found it "curious" that Mr. Obama this weekend told black leaders to "stop complaining."
"I don't know who he was talking to because we're certainly not complaining," Waters said on CBS' "The Early Show." "We're working. We support him, and we're protecting that base because we want people to be enthusiastic about him when that election rolls around."
