Barack Obama Working To Boost Businesses Without The Help Of Congress

WASHINGTON -- Pushing a campaign to act without Congress, President Barack Obama moved unilaterally Friday to boost private business.

He signed executive orders aimed at spurring economic growth, capping a week in which Obama sought to employ the power of his office as he struggles to make headway on his jobs bill on Capitol Hill.

Obama's orders direct government agencies to shorten the time it takes for federal research to turn into commercial products in the marketplace. The goal is to help startup companies and small businesses create jobs and expand their operations more quickly.

On the other front, Obama called for creation of a centralized online site, to be known as BusinessUSA, for companies to easily find information on federal services. The site, a recommendation of the president's jobs council, is to be up and running within 90 days and will be designed with input from U.S. businesses.

Obama announced both steps in presidential memos released Friday morning.

"Today, I am directing my administration to take two important steps to help American businesses create new products, compete in a global economy, and create jobs here at home," Obama said. The White House had no estimate for how many jobs would be created.

On a larger scale, the president himself announced two other executive actions this week, one offering help for homeowners seeking to refinance at lower mortgage rates and the other allowing college students to simplify and lower their student loan payments. The White House also issued a challenge to community health centers in a bid to help get veterans jobs.

White House aides expect more such actions in coming days. Obama, up for re-election, is waging a public campaign to show voters he is acting on jobs more than Republicans are.

The Republicans who control the House counter that their economic bills have not been considered in the Senate. And they question Obama's latest tactic.

"This idea that you're just going to go around the Congress is just, it's almost laughable," House Speaker John Boehner told radio talk show host Laura Ingraham on Thursday.

Slanted article.

Puts up the 'you like' stuff first.

then sneaks in the 'very bad' stuff at the end.

First two actions will create a better job growth environment.

Last two will add a drain to the American taxpayer (or their grandchildren)... and shame of shames it spends money where Congress did not want to SPEND.(Congress holds the purse strings for a reason).

With no 'watchdogs'...

Or watchdogs that have failed us on the border.

Congratulations, Barack. You've finally learned that you will get Republicans to agree on NOTHING. Their agenda is to defeat you, and nothing else. What's bad for America, is good for Republicans. That's their attitude. So screw 'em. Do what you can on your own and let the voters decide in 2012.

I have trouble "respecting" anyone who sells my nation out to the banks/bankers! What else is to be expected of him when his WHOLE CABINET is the very people who caused the mess we are in!

Shrub lit the fire.....Obummer poured gasoline on it!

Of course Cain would package it up, pledgerize a song about it, then sell it to us as "the best _______ ever!" (as most if not all of the MSM backed candidates would!)

On the subject of this administration......

History proves that poverty is a normal condition...In an open market capitalistic society, entrepreneurs get rich and THE POOR BECOME BETTER OFF......They do not become rich, they become BETTER OFF.....So yes, the gap gets wider, but as it widens, the top and bottom rise.....If the rich were not "free" to get richer, the poor would have no chance of improving their situation.....
Wealth is CREATED....It can only be created when the conditions of freedom (individual rights) are guaranteed......Obama is working toward destroying these guarantees, destroying "individual" rights.
