Republicans Preemptively Reject Obama Jobs Plan

An easy path for President Barack Obama's job plan, which he will outline Thursday night, never seemed realistic, but a key Republican stated his preemptive opposition to the president's proposals even before details of the package emerged.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, according to Talking Points Memo, said on the Senate floor Tuesday that the president would use the "same failed" approach to the nation's unemployment problem that he has in the past. This "same failed approach" refers to government stimulus. Obama signed into law $787 billion in stimulus in 2009.
