Arianna appeared Wednesday on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe' to discuss the country's jobs crisis.
Making the connection between Hurricane Irene and the jobs crisis, Arianna said, "we have not done what needed to be done around jobs. And what happened with Hurricane Irene can really be a lesson about how we can now act when it comes to basically Hurricane Jobs. Because it is a crisis that's blowing over the country. It's not going away."
She continued, "there is an enormous amount we can do, both at the federal, the state level, and in our own neighborhoods. So we need to start acting."
Arianna also explained that saving the middle class should not be a partisan issue. "There is nothing right or left about saving the middle class. Everybody wants to save the middle class, so this is another area where we don't need to be polarized and paralyzed," said Arianna.

gee wiz, why not do that here?
Because this Administration rarely frames the debate, sets the narrative and gets their message out, their solutions to our nation’s "job crisis" will fall into the ether as well. A job’s speech jobs will not change people's perception one iota about the lack of conviction from our government officials. We truly need an FDR leader to focus like a laser, knock some heads and hammer away at this topic daily, but that's never going under this Administration.
Remember, Obama’s whole economic team left him or did he leave them?? No one is left, so Obama will continue to push discredited Republican Voodoo policies and austerity measures which will do little to help the American people. And whatever progressive ideas he has will be capitulated away to be rendered ineffective.
Our military spending freaked out the war hawks in the Soviet Union and stalled Gorbachev's quest to end communism. It wasn't until Reagan was finally out of office that Gorbachev was able to end communism.
Conservatives are always trying to give Reagan more worth than he deserves. He did nothing.
Stunning.
Why was this not his first priority ?
