President and job creation

A recent statement by the chairman of the Democratic Party indicates the president is focused like a laser on job creation.

The proposed oil pipeline from Canada to the U.S. was put on hold until after the next election. That was estimated to create 20,000 jobs. Oil shale extraction development in Indiana was reported to create by 2015 approximately 200,000 jobs in many sectors but has been quashed by the president. A consulting firm hired to review the proposed changes to coal mining rules was told to fudge the numbers or downplay the loss of jobs.

I think his laser is out of focus. Can we survive another year of this horrible president?
