That was Wednesday, a tweet from Obama’s official 2012 campaign Twitter account. But, remember, his jobs bill isn’t about him getting re-elected. But, if you love him, you’ll help him pass the bill.

Did I watch the speech? No. I went to the gym. Did I listen to it on my MP3 player with a radio or read the captions on the TV? No. Like the really boring “Interview with the Vampire” and horrible “Terminator: Salvation”, I felt no need to read or watch Obama’s speech. I’ve seen […]
