Obama: Jobs report 'step in the right direction'

POLAND, Ohio -- President Obama brushed past a gloomy jobs report today, saying that the economy has created 4.4 million new jobs in the past 28 months.

"That's a step in the right direction," Obama told some 350 supporters packed into an elementary school gym. "But we can't be satisfied."

Obama spoke just a few hours after the Labor Department reported only 80,000 jobs in June, not enough to keep the economy growing -- a point quickly made by Republican candidate Mitt Romney and other GOP lawmakers.

Noting that the unemployment rate remains at 8.2%, Romney blamed Obama economic policies and said: "It doesn't have to be this way. America can do better and this kick in the gut has got to end."

yea? what's he gonna do differently, that will make one bit of difference? he just talks trash and so does obomba-when we all get that and stop accepting it-we'll be doing better.
