It's about the jobs stupid

One of my favorite authors, commentators and people is Thomas Friedman. I just think he is so dialed in to what is going on in the world. He not only points out what is wrong, which many of us can do, but he suggests ways to fix it. Why he is not in public office or part of the administration is beyond me.

Anyway he has a great Op-Ed piece up in the Times today.  He urges President Obama to learn the lessons of Massachusetts and correct the mistakes of the past year. Return to the working with the people, not Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. He urges a program to create real permanent jobs. He says we need to make this year the “year of innovatoin” and the year of “Start up America”. 

He says it better than I ever could, so just head over and read it. But I agree with him 100%!
