Not Working?

Mitt Romney is running around the country saying that the policies of President Obama are not working.  He claims that these “failed policies” are causing the recession to continue.  Perhaps one should ask just what policies are he referring?  At last look, virtually every legislation proposed by President Obama has been blocked by republican filibusters in the Senate.  The American Jobs Act which would have added an estimated one million jobs never came to a vote.  The Dream Act, sponsored by both Democrats and Republicans, was filibustered by the very Republican Senators who originally sponsored the legislation.  The country is still living under the tax policies inherited by President Obama and originated by George Bush.  If Romney is referring to the failure of the Bush tax cuts to reverse the recession, why is he proposing even deeper tax cuts?  Just what has Romney proposed that will restore the economy?  His 59 point plan is nothing more than Bush 43 revisited...lower taxes and fewer regulations.  He is apparently unaware that these were the very things that resulted in today’s recession and the nation’s deficit.  It is easy to be a critic when one takes both sides of an argument as has Romney over his political career.   It is more important, however, to note that the country is not governed by criticism but by policy and by legislation.  Where are the policies and legislation from Republicans that will restore the economy?  There is nothing in the speeches of Romney that would lead one to believe that a Romney Presidency will restore the middle class, create jobs, and reverse the economic downturn that has been the hallmark of supply side economic theory and the result of record economic inequality.
