Job losses Mystify White House

I just read a blog by John Harwood, a Democratic lackey who writes for the New York Times and is often seen on MSNBC. He writes that the continued weakness in the jobs situation continues to mystify the White House and Democrats.

It is no mystery to me. Repeat after me... Obamacare

The uncertainty about the costs of Obamacare to small businesses and large businesses alike is probably the single biggest reason why employers are unwilling to hire new workers at this point. They see their healthcare costs surging even more because of this new healthcare bill. Additionally, with the Bush tax cuts set to expire on January 1, and the threat of cap and trade legislation passing in a lame duck Congress after the election, it is no wonder that businesses are not hiring.

There you have it Mr. Harwood. Maybe you and the rest of the Democrats should open your eyes.
