Orrin Hatch - Rips On President Obama's Job Speech Because Its Not Focused On Debt and Deficit

[TomCADem]

Orrin Hatch has been making the interviews rounds complaining about how President Obama's jobs speech failed to focus on budget cuts and the deficit. Of course, interviewers are not reminding Orrin Hatch that its because the focus of the speech is on job creation. It would be nice if an interviewer would interrupt a Republican and ask how laying off public employees in response to budget cuts improves the employment rate.

1. They don't interrupt anyone who says something negative about Obama.

They let that run on and on.

2. They don't have much infrastructure in Utah that is in need of repair, so no new jobs

will be created there if an infratstructure plan is put in to place by Congress.
Plus, they don't want federal money to be earmarked to the several states, because the tea party coalition of the Republican party has taken over in Utah.
Austerity is the driving tenet of Mormonism.
They're used to being broke in Utah.
