Roskam on the "underwhelming" jobs report

President Obama's stimulus is a colossal failure. At a House Republican Leadership press conference this morning, Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL), the Chief Deputy Whip, tells us how bad it is.



A transcript:

We've had 27 jobs reports since the stimulus. And every one of those job reports has been underwhelming. Think about that. It's not five reports, it's not ten it's not 15, its not 20 – it's 27 jobs reports and every one says that the program is underwhelming… When will the White House realize that their underperformance and lack of planning -- and failure -- is a real obstacle to job creation?
