As President Obama spoke to “the Mother of Parliaments” at Westminster Hall in theU.K. I couldn’t help but notice that his recent focus has been on foreign affairs. This first link is the words that appear on the White House website when you Google the words “president Obama’s recent agenda.”
Using those same Googled words I was reminded by USA Today that he recently paid a visit to Latin America in March. Then it was “We Got Him” followed by a speech explaining his policies regarding the Middle East and North Africa. Now he has followed this with a visit to Europe.
So where was time spent on the American economy? This morning’s news on-line briefing advised me that More people applied for unemployment benefits. It’s accurate. I track it and there were 10,000 more claims this week than last for a total of 424,000 this week.
Then I Goggled “new laws that will create more jobs in America” and this pops up:
