The foreign money canard--3
As I ponder the attack by the administration on the US Chamber of commerce, I wonder how can the geniuses of the 2008 campaign turn into the dunces of 2010? When I was growing up, my father had a small business—an electrical supply wholesale store. He was a member of the local Chamber of Commerce. All across America there are millions of people who have either been members of the Chamber or whose family were members. The Chamber is about as benign an organization as one can find. It stands for helping business, but its focus is on small business. So we have a campaign where both sides keep touting how important small business is in job creation – it is the engine of growth for jobs in this country. Then we have Obama and his party out there attacking the principal voice of small business in this country as some sort of dangerous, quasi-demonic scourge that is trying to steal the election for the Chinese. I do not think that this connection is lost on the country. The attack makes clear that the administration does not care about job creation. If it did, it would not be attacked by the voice of small business.
