This should be known as the "straw man thread". The righties are merrily quoting a few campaign promises, then putting their own spin on what they should mean (meanwhile ignoring the reality and context) and (surprise, surprise) their straw men don't meet expectations. Any idiot can complain about things (especially self-invented problems). No, Obama is not "sending jobs overseas". He is simply stating the reality...they have gone overseas as a result of the last decade of outsourcing and it will be a lot smarter to create jobs that can take advantage of the resources and goals/needs of the US than to try to compete with the low-cost labor markets of the third world.
