Six years later, Governator's priority is still jobs

Repub. Pahty are seriously loons if they think that jobs, jobs, jobs will be their platform to winning the election 2010. And Ahnuld is one example of buffoonary:

There was a sobering symmetry between the first State of the State speech offered by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and the one he recited last week.

"Jobs, jobs, jobs," he said on Jan. 6, 2004, just months after winning office in the wacky recall election. "The more jobs the better. I am going to become California's Job Czar."

And on Jan. 6, 2010, delivering the last such speech of his governorship:"The first priority for the coming year, obviously, is to get the economy and to get jobs back. Jobs, jobs, jobs."That rhetoric was the same, but everything else seemed wearily different.

State of the State speeches are often so programmed as to be almost meaningless: Thank your esteemed colleagues in the Legislature or insult them (Schwarzenegger has done both), recount the successes of the last year, toss out in glancing generality the road map for the coming year and leave the details for the release of the budget proposal a few days hence.
