Obama announces a job-creating plan

The president has announced a plan to create new jobs, which includes rebuilding roads and rails. The program would cost an estimated $50 Billion.  As his fellow democrats prepare to vie for reelection in November, the Republicans have told the administration it can expect no help from their side of the aisle.


FDR Revisited?

Obama has a plan to make some jobs
A year, or there abouts, on down the road.
He’s stepping up the war on unemployment
As he sees his popularity erode.

His plan includes rebuilding many roads
And improving things on runways and the rails.
The price, he says, is fifty-billion dollars;
And voters all await to hear details.

Meantime, his party’s planning for November
With hopes that all will then be re-elected.
The GOP, meantime, has made it clear
Its assistance should, in no way, be expected.
