Eaglewings says:

Obama keeps blabbering about saving or creating 3 or 4 million jobs with his STIMULUS plan. I am wondering when this saving or creating jobs program is actually going to start? I didn't start soon enough for these 300 workers in Alabama. But I am sure the ChiComs and the Koreans will love the jobs OBAMA created for them. ONCE AGAIN American TAX PAYER money heads for foreign soil.

Those of you who voted for this administration are you still working? It is only a matter of time before Obama Stimulates you right out of a job.
