Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs refused to address the real issues of skyrocketing college tuition and high youth unemployment during an appearance on CNN alongside host Brooke Baldwin Tuesday.
Baldwin pressed Gibbs about the tuition increases and high youth unemployment that has continued unabated throughout Obama’s nearly four years in office.
Tuition has increased an average of 15 percent since Obama took office, according to The Atlantic, while unemployment among those 30 and younger has remained stuck between a non-seasonally adjusted 12 and 13 percent all summer.
The Obama spokesman instead chose to stick to his talking points.
Gibbs chose to take a shot at Mitt Romney for having suggested college students should shop around for a cheaper college rather than taking their money to more expensive schools.
“That’s not an economic development plan. we know what the unemployment rate is nationally,” Gibbs said. “We know it’s about half that if you have a college education. we need to make sure that if you work hard in this country and can go to college, the cost isn’t and should never be a barrier.”
Baldwin asked Gibbs if he was concerned about the level of youth enthusiasm for Obama this time around, noting the large crowds that followed candidate Obama in 2008. But Gibbs tried keeping a straight face when he told her that enthusiasm remains about the same this time around, nowhere noting that slightly less than half of all voters 30 and younger say they are supporting the President.
About John Rossomando
Curupt politicians always in time of crisis either ignore the truth, or atempt to lay blame somwhere else. Because they are cowards, the type of men who kill themselves rather than face a public execution for wrong doing. The type of men that disert a military outfit rather than faceing the enemy in combat. These animals are usauly all the same kind of shit, somone who wants power but can’t handle it and becomes mad when given it. They are wiesels every one only in it to benifit themselves and their own secretly stalinist agendas.
The word democrat is a funny irony, because democrats do not symbolize in any way the practice of democracy. But every one sees the word democrat and thinks oh they suport democracy. When in reality about half or more of the high ups amount to nothing more than communist sympathisers, or infiltrators. What is that saying? Oh yes ” the greatist trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn’t exist”.
The soviets did the same thing when they realised they couldn’t win the cash game, they changed tactics and sought to destroy the west from the inside out. And they are on the brink of suceeding in thier goal. Why do you think the crats want to undermine our military strength? it becomes quite obvious when you figure out the decades old plan. The U.S. has been infiltrated through out the federal government for decades, and now they have this commie running it strait to the ground like they want, if we give them much longer a red flag will fly in D.C..
