Missouri Republican Party joins in on Obama, McCaskill bashing

Not that the Republicans have done anything to help the economy either, but the Missouri Republican Party has joined in on today's bashing of the Obama Administration and Sen. Claire McCaskill with the following news release:

In June, DNC Chairman Debbie Wasserman Schultz announced that Democrats “own the economy” and claimed that Barack Obama was able to “turn this economy around.” But this morning, the Labor Department released a dismal jobs report, showing the national unemployment rate jumping to 9.2% and only 18,000 jobs added in June.

Claire McCaskill has yet to comment on the report. Perhaps she is finally beginning to realize that the only thing her big-spending votes have accomplished is passing an extraordinary amount of debt to our children and grandchildren. Or maybe she’s just trying figure out a way to spin the numbers like she did back in May, when she called a report showing the unemployment rate jumping from 8.8% to 9% “another strong jobs report.”

“Not only have Barack Obama and Claire McCaskill failed to put Missourians back to work—now things are getting worse,” said Lloyd Smith, Executive Director of the Missouri Republican Party. “With too much spending, too much debt, and not enough jobs, our nation is heading in the wrong direction. Even the leader of the Democrat Party admits that they own the economy, so it is time for Claire McCaskill to begin taking responsibility for her record of voting lockstep with Barack Obama’s failed liberal policies.”

Claire McCaskill has enabled Barack Obama and his failed policies that have contributed to the nation’s economic problems. Over the past two and a half years, McCaskill has been one of the staunchest supporters of Obama’s reckless liberal agenda.

McCaskill voted for the wasteful stimulus, which failed to keep unemployment below 8% as promised, she cast the deciding vote for Obamacare, and now, she wants to raise taxes on the very companies and people that are creating jobs.
