Obviously, he meant to send it to Charles and David for them to fill out the details, rather than hitting “post”.

It looks just like the his list from the 2010 Midterms. I wonder how successful his last jobs bill was? Oh that’s right. They lied to the American people in 2010. How shocking huh. And here people really thought the GOP had ideas. Fools.

I guess that’s what happens when you threaten to take away your staff’s health insurance subsidies over and over again. You’ve essentially thrown your own staff under the bus. But I doubt they trust an intern with his twitter account. That’s either from Boner, or the paid staff on his behalf.

I wouldn’t underestimate how the Vitter Amendment was a real sore spot for a lot of Congressional GOP staffers. Maybe this is just payback.

An intern or a low level New Media staffer. Either way, it sucks for them. We’ve all hit send or reply too soon.

He could have used Bush’s jobs plan:

  1. War
  2. War
  3. War
  4. Reward your buddies with war contracts
  5. Profit

Yeah, I’m starting to think that wasn’t an unintentional boo-boo. Sad to say, “blank” is their 5 point plan.

It’s a plan that can be everything to everybody! It’s the job plan version of the Generic Candidate.
