Valerie Jarrett Blasts Republicans – Threatens Layoffs of Teachers, Firefighters, and Police
The mystery that surrounds Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett intensifies as she takes on a more public stance that indicates her dominance of the positions taken within the Obama White House.
Iranian-born Valerie Jarrett, once described as Barack Obama’s “brain”, went on the attack this morning during an MSNBC interview that saw the senior White House adviser defending her now infamous politically-motivated speech at an Atlanta church this past Sunday. Jarrett pointed a finger of blame directly on Republicans in Congress, declaring they were putting American jobs in jeopardy by not allowing full passage of the oft-spoken of ”Obama Jobs Plan” that even Democrats in the Senate have all but ignored due to its increases in deficit spending and little actual job creation – much like the first near trillion dollar Obama stimulus plan that was passed in 2009.
Not satisfied with inciting fear with merely the concept of general job losses, Jarrett went on to (once again) indicate that it would be teachers, firefighters, and police who would be laid off. (It should be noted that federal dollars actually account for a minority of funding for these positions – which are almost exclusive to state and local funding.)
So, yes, all across the country we have teachers and firefighters, first responders, whose jobs are at risk because we don’t have that act in place.
Jarrett is demanding that a tax increase on wealthier Americans be implemented now in order to save the economy – though a wide array of economists have long indicated tax increases have little to do with growing the economy and far more to do with growing government. It is that expansion of government that has been the hallmark of the Obama administration – and most likely then, the direct result of Valerie Jarrett’s significant influence upon “Obama’s brain”.
