New RNC Ad Hammers Obama Before Jobs Speech

With President Barack Obama giving a speech on jobs on Thursday, the Republican National Committee (RNC) released a web video on Wednesday reminding voters of the presidents record on employment and the economy.

Weve heard this all before, said RNC Chairman Reince Priebus. For the past two and a half years, President Obama has repeatedly promised to focus on jobs, but instead he has prioritized taxing, spending and regulating. The problem is that job creation was never a priority for this president. He spent the summer filling his campaign coffers, going on taxpayer-funded bus tours, playing golf and jetting off to Marthas Vineyard at a time when 14 million Americans are out of work.

Expect this president to talk about the same old economic half-measures that hes championed since taking office and to blame others for his lack of leadership, added Priebus. The country is yearning for leadership, but all weve gotten is failed promises filled with misplaced priorities. With zero jobs created in the month of August, its time to change direction.
