Obama unveils his jobs plan, I unveil mine

For Obama, the American Jobs Act is a last-ditch effort to recover from a brutal summer. In CNN’s new poll, his disapproval rating is 55 percent, an all-time high. But if he wants to spend a fortune on a lost cause, he should bankroll Queen Latifah’s trainer — not waste billions on a rehash of the same old discredited spending practices that bombed in 2009. I’ve got a plan guaranteed to be both cheaper and more effective: voting him out of office. That’ll create one more job than the stimulus ever did and, unlike the Recovery Act then and the American Jobs Act now, it won’t cost a thing.
