Obama calls for a 'Secretary of Business'

President Obama says he would like to establish a "secretary of Business" if he wins a second term.

Under the president's original proposal, six different commerce and trade agencies, including the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative and the Export-Import Bank, would be brought under one roof.

The president also said the SBA should be elevated to a Cabinet-level position.

Obama blamed Congress for inaction on the proposal.

Words fail me in describing just how stupid that idea is.

The United States Secretary of Commerce is the head of the United States Department of Commerce concerned with business and industry.

If Obama attended more meetings he might have known the US already has a 'Secretary of Business'.

It (apparently) makes perfect sense to a Marxist dick-tater wannabe...  :mental:

Or... we could just elect Romney and not worry about needing a "Secretary of Business"

Romney basically said the same thing during one of his speeches today.

Paraphrasing here :  Obama says he is going to hire someone as Secretary of Business.  I won't need to do that, I understand business.

That's right, the House refused to fund any more "czar" posts made by Obama.  I guess this is his way of doing an end run around the GOP. :rofl:

He needs a spot for one of his union bosses. Who better to destroy jobs than a union boss.

Even Obama's business round table buddies privately say he is killing jobs.

Obama installs a Secretary of Business, and I'll make it a point to hire a secretary of NONE OF YOUR DAMNED BUSINESS for my business. :fuelfire:

Besides, I'd get confused if there was more than one SoB in his administration.

Romney and Ryan are having a field day with this stupidity.  The dunce-in-chief should have thought of the economy/business on day one instead of day 1,398.
