The Beer Summit vs. the Jobs Summit – which will prove more productive when all is said and done?

Posted by: ST on December 3, 2009 at 3:40 pm

Another informal poll for you this week. The answers are:

a) The Beer Summit will look more productive in comparison to the Jobs Summit when all is said and done.

b) In the end, the Jobs Summit will be more productive than the Beer Summit was.

c) Are you crazy? Both summits were/are a farce!

d) Other (state your answer)

Has anyone been paying attention to the summit today? I heard a rumor that Obama dissed the small business sector in his opening speech, but haven’t been able to find any reports of the alleged comments anywhere. It supposedly went something along the lines of talking about how small business had cut jobs over the years in order to cut costs and had remained in a hiring freeze of sorts in order to earn profits. I’ll check later tonight to see if I can find any reporting on this.

    Thanks to the “Jobs Summit”, the jobs will be flowing like rivers of honey and unicorns will roam about the land.

  2. Ryan says:

    The Beer Summit will be more productive, if only because it had beer.

    Otherwise, they’re both a farce.

  3. William says:

    I’m with Ryan. So far we got that awesome photo of Obama walking ahead all by his awesome-self, and we learned what kind of beer he drinks when the camera’s on. The Job summit has to top at least those two moments.

    It’s like asking whether you like your beer glass 100% empty or 0% full.

  5. Sickofthis says:

    Did they talk at all about how illegal alien work thieves are affecting the job market for Americans?

  6. Carlos says:

    Sickofthis – how utterly rude and unconscienable of you to call them “illegal aliens”! They’re “undocumented workers”, and all they want is a chance to have a better life, don’tcha know?

    Of course, the poor sap American citizen whose job he took is only looking for a better life, too, and he didn’t have to break any laws getting here to work, and now is worried out of his mind that he won’t be able to make his mortgage payment/rent AND put food on the table.

    But then, who cares? He’s probably only some stupid white gringo that is a racist and probably voted for Bush anyway, so there’s no big loss there.

    And as far as Duh-1 dissing small business, I can’t hardly blame him. After all, the audacity of those greedy capitalists expecting to make a profit on the backs of those poor “undocumented workers”! How dare they?!
