Obama: "We Need To Do What ... Clinton Did In The 1990s"
ABINGTON, PA – Barack Obama applauded his running mate’s performance in last night’s debate before discussing the latest job numbers and bashing his Republican rival on the economy.
In a speech before a some 6,000 people gathered at a windy high school football stadium in a Philadelphia suburb, the Democratic nominee highlighted Joe Biden’s Pennsylvania roots, telling the crowd he was a “Scranton boy done good” who had showed America why he would be such a good vice president. Obama talked about what he called a “noteworthy” moment from the St. Louis match up between Biden and Sarah Palin: when the governor said the Democrats’ economy policy would kill jobs.
“I wonder if she turned on the news this morning, because it was just reported that America has experienced its ninth straight month of job loss,” he said.
America has lost more than three quarters of a million jobs since January, and Obama is hoping to convince concerned voters that a vote for his ticket is a vote for more jobs. He said today that his economic policies would create millions of new jobs, including five million clean energy jobs and two million jobs in infrastructure and repeated a common attack line he and Biden uses to cast McCain as out of touch, saying that only two weeks the Arizona senator was still saying the fundamentals of the economy were strong.
”When Sen. McCain and his running mate talk about job killing, that’s something they know a thing or two about, because the policies they’ve supported and are supporting are killing jobs in America every single day and Abington, I am here to tell you that we cannot afford four more years of this,” he said. “We need to do what we did in the 1990s and create millions of new jobs and not lose them. We need to do what we did in the 1990s and make sure people’s incomes are going up and not down. We need to do what a guy named Bill Clinton did in the 1990s and put people first again.”
The senator painted John McCain as a deregulator who was trying to change his stripes, even comparing him to Civil Rights leader and former Democratic presidential candidate Jesse Jackson. For 26 years, McCain has been for deregulation and tax cuts for the rich, Obama said.
”He hasn’t been getting tough on CEOs. He hasn’t been getting tough on Wall Street, so suddenly a crisis comes and the polls change, and suddenly he’s out there talking like Jesse Jackson,” he said. “Come on. It shows how out of touch he really is.”
After the event, Obama was headed home to Chicago to celebrate his 16th wedding anniversary before hitting the trail again Saturday in Virginia. He plans to spend several days, starting tomorrow evening, in Asheville, NC, preparing for the next presidential debate.

**** INNOCENT AMERICANS ARE DENIED REAL HC RIGHTS WITH THEIR FEDERAL APPEALS !
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE $LOWLY FINDING OUT HOW EA$Y IT I$ FOR MIDDLE CLA$$ AND WORKING POOR AMERICAN$ TO FALL VICTIM TO OUR U$ MONETARY JUDICIAL $Y$TEM.
****WHEN THE US INNOCENT WERE ABANDONED BY THE GUILTY ****
The prison experts have reported that there are 100,000 innocent Americans currently being falsely imprisoned along with the 2,300,000 total US prison population nationwide.
Since our US Congress has never afforded poor prison inmates federal appeal legal counsel for their federal retrials,they have effectively closed the doors on these tens of thousands of innocent citizens ever being capable of possibly exonerating themselves to regain their freedom through being granted new retrials.
This same exact unjust situation was happening in our Southern States when poor and mostly uneducated Black Americans were being falsely imprisoned for endless decades without the needed educational skills to properly submit their own written federal trial appeals.
This devious and deceptive judicial process of making our poor and innocent prison inmates formulate and write their own federal appeal legal cases for possible retrials on their state criminal cases,is still in effect today even though everyone in our US judicial system knows that without proper legal representation, these tens of thousands of innocent prison inmates will be denied their rightful opportunities of ever being granted new trials from our federal appeal judges!!
Sadly, the true US *legal* Federal Appeal situation that occurs when any of our uneducated American prison inmates are forced to attempt to submit their own written Federal Appeals (from our prisons nationwide) without the assistance of proper legal counsel, is that they all are in reality being denied their legitimate rights for Habeas Corpus with our US FEDERAL COURTS and will win any future Supreme Court Case concerning this injustice!
For our judicial system and our US Congressional Leaders Of The Free World to continue to pretend that this is a real and fair opportunity for our American Middle Class and Working Poor Citizens, only delays the very needed future change of Federal Financing of all these Federal appeals becoming a normal formula of Our American judicial system.
It was not so very long ago that Public Defenders became a Reality in this country.Prior that legal reality taking place, their were also some who thought giving anyone charged with a crime a free lawyer was a waste of taxpayers $$.
This FACADE and HORROR of our Federal Appeal proce$$ is not worthy of the Greatest Country In The World!
***GREAT SOCIETIES THAT DO NOT PROTECT EVEN THEIR INNOCENT, BECOME THE GUILTY!
