They had one of Obama's business advisors (a black guy) on via camera from the WH lawn ... they were asking him why other countries like China are doing things to stimulate their ecomomy through business breaks like accelerated depreciation and it is working by creating jobs, yet here in the US we keep doing more to penalize businesses and talk about higher taxes (which was what sent the economy in to the great depression).

His response was interesting and may indicate that there in fighting at the WH ... he said they have been giving the president ideas and programs that have worked and are working in other countries to create jobs, but at this time the president wants to stay the course with the programs that are in place.

The people on CNBC said, come on, we need you to fight for business so we can get jobs growing again. The guy laughed and said I am on your side and we are doing all we can but ultimately it is the president and congress decision.
