Sununu apologizes on CNN

“I was making the point that in America entrepreneurs deserve credit,” said Sununu. “Instead of saying that he’s got to learn the American formula for creating jobs I did say those words that are there and frankly I made a mistake. I shouldn’t have used those words and I apologize for using those words.” Sununu said, however, that he will not apologize for saying that President Obama does not understand how to create jobs.

...

Blitzer asked Sununu about the 4 million jobs created during his tenure as President, which the former New Hampshire governor said was insufficient. Blitzer pushed back that the Bush administration presided over pronounced collapse of the job market. Sununu replied that the recovery should be the mirror image of that financial collapse but the recession continues to persist.

...

Finally, Blitzer asked why, if the President was so anti-business, the stock market was doing so well and businesses were sitting on their profits and not investing in growth. Sununu replied that those companies are “scared to death” that Obama would be reelected. If he is, Sununu says, those profits are going overseas.

6. I see Sununu has no facts to back up his statements

and the republicans have been saying businesses have been scared for 4 years
if they are that scared then they do not know how to run a business

7. No Sununus is good Sununus.

I know it's a cliche but it's still true.

9. He meant what he said.

Since Richard Nixon's time, the GOP has become the party which uses a pro-white race strategy to win.
Since then, the white supremacists have moved into the Republican party.

12. Empty apology from an evil man

It's worthless.

13. Sununu didn't just criticize Obama about jobs and the economy

Just before the conference call where Sununu accused Obama of being unAmerican (which he now says was purely an attack on Obama's failure to understand the American capitalist economy), he appeared on Fox News and criticized Obama for smoking dope and living in Indonesia. What did the latter two jabs have to do with the economy? It had everything to do with the effort to describe Obama as the "other", the misfit unAmerican, the black man.

14. That was fast
