His job stimulus --tax hiring credits and investment tax breaks--would do little to get businesses to hire more workers. What businesses need, in order to hire more workers, is additional business; that is, increased demand for their products and services.

True, he's literally unimpeachable, at least according to Representative James Harrison , who said, "We can't impeach for hypocrisy. We can't impeach for arrogance.
