Bush To Cleveland: ‘Anybody Work Here In This Town?’

http://thinkprogress.org/2006/03/20/bush-cleveland-work/

Bush To Cleveland: ‘Anybody Work Here In This Town?’

After getting frustrated at the length of the Q&A session of his speech in Cleveland today, Bush blurted out, “Anybody work here in this town?” Watch it:



Bush inadvertantly hit upon a subject he otherwise ignored - unemployment in Cleveland. Economic conditions in the city have worsened considerably during Bush’s presidency. Some facts:

- 5.8 percent: Cleveland unemployment rate, Jan. 2006
- 4.5 percent: Cleveland unemployment rate, Jan. 2001

- 5.3 percent: Ohio unemployment rate, Jan. 2006
- 4.0 percent: Ohio unemployment rate, Jan. 2001

- 31.3 percent: Cleveland poverty rate, 2003
- 24.3 percent: Cleveland poverty rate, 2001

So the answer, Mr. President, is that a lot of people in Cleveland don’t work because they can’t find jobs.

38. That's a favorite line of the right-wingers.
Get a job!

They just assume that anyone who has time to think has too much time on their hands. Get a job!

run all of our industries, and in turn, our manufacturing jobs out of this town.

25. Bush sycophants are getting harder to find nowadays.......
it's getting tough to come up with 1,000 people in any city that are still drinking the kool-aid. They figure that letting in a few un-vetted people is better than having empty chairs looking back at bush. What surprises me is that they're allowed to ask questions though. Usually only the, "god bless you president bush" people are allowed to ask question of his assholyness.

19. Oh, no he did NOT!
I mean, I know he did, but how stupid do you have to be to say something like that?

You know, I've seen people lately pointing out that Bush isn't stupid and that calling him stupid and incompetent only gets him off the hook for his evilness, and I see what those people are saying. Yes, Bush is EXTREMELY evil, but on the other hand, you have to be completely STUPID to say something like this. Evil and stupidity. That is what we are witnessing in this man.

Former HBS Prof Blasts Bush

By SIMON W. VOZICK-LEVINSON
Crimson Staff Writer

EXCERPT...

Yoshihiro Tsurumi, an avowed opponent of Bush’s current views and policies who was a visiting associate professor of international business at HBS between 1972 and 1976, said Bush was among 85 students he taught one year in a required first-year course. In the class on “Environment Analysis for Management,” incorporating elements of macroeconomics, industrial policy and international business, Tsurumi said students discussed and debated case studies for 90 minutes several times a week.

Tsurumi—now a professor of international business at Baruch College in the City University of New York—said he remembers the future president as scoring in the bottom 10 percent of students in the class.

Thirty years after teaching the class, Tsurumi said the twenty-something Bush’s statements and behavior—“always very shallow”—still stand out in his mind.

“Whenever just bumped into me, he had some flippant statement to make,” said Tsurumi when reached at his home in Scarsdale, N.Y. “The comments he made were revealing of his prejudice.”

The White House did not reply to requests for comment on Bush’s time at HBS.

Tsurumi said he particularly recalls Bush’s right-wing extremism at the time, which he said was reflected in off-hand comments equating the New Deal of the 1930s with socialism and the corporation-regulating Securities and Exchange Commission with “an enemy of capitalism.”

“I vividly remember that he made a comment saying that people are poor because they’re lazy,” Tsurumi said.

26. Ohio voted for bush? Sherrod Brown put this in a campaign ad!
Brown would be foolish not to point out how bush's policies had such a negative effect on this state. I don't know how Democrats can't win in Ohio given the stats posted here & all the corruption besides. The laughter reminds me of the response Bush use to get with his "Lucky me, I hit the Trifecta" " 9/11 "joke" at GOP fund raisers..what's so funny?

People listen to that on the radio and make special arrangements to go to that. So, yeah, they were working that day but made it so they could be there. It can tend conservative, though, so it's encouraging that he was getting grilled.

41. If unemployment were calculated today as it was in 1980 it would be 12% -
If unemployment were calculated today as it was in 1980 (when Reagan took office) we would report that unemployment is 12%, nationwide.

42. i had a republican/ libertarian econ proffresser...
he gave us this sheet with unemployment numbers on it, with the usual nations on it(western Europe, Canada, mexico, china, U.S... etc...) and of course all the "socialist" nations were at 7-12% unemployed, the developing world at 10ish% and the U.S. was at 4.3%. the whole time he went on about how europe is soooooo stupid with the unemployment rate soooo high. and that there were so many people living on the dole. so i did the research and the math and showed him at the time by the years listed, the U.S. was at a whopping 14% unemployed. then i gave him a essay on how those other nations take care of there unemployed and that people live longer, healthier lives. plus a report about education and literacy rates. passed the whole thing out to every one in class. he nearly kicked me out of the course. score one for logic.

If you were to look through the employment ads in Cleveland or pretty much everywhere. The great bulk of offerings are from agencies. They offer these "temp" positions and they rotate everyone out after 89 days so they don't have to pay full benefits. So yep, there are definetly people who have time to show up and question Bush.

ANNUAL INFORMATIONAL STATEMENT
IN CONNECTION WITH BONDS AND NOTES OF THE COUNTY

Much has changed since 2003....from right off the top of my head, officemax and Kmart are gone...there are probably lots of changes with these figures.

You'll notice lots of healthcare(which is probably growing from the enormous new profits) and public employment.

Insurance and other financial scamsters holding steady

Manufacturing destroyed or under heavy attack
