DECORAH, Iowa (Reuters) - President Barack Obama blasted Republicans for playing politics with the economy on Monday, when he took on the road a bus tour of the U.S. Midwest in job growth to focus and to distance itself from anger toward Washington, which 2012 re-election delle his hopes could.
The President-three day trip on a black bus with darkened Windows and red and blue flashing lights, began communities in Minnesota, wound through Backroads, hills and farms to Iowa and ends in Illinois.
Obama won all three States in the presidential election in 2008, although Iowa before recently host to Republicans compete has played to him for the White House next year, which was to criticize its record have, as it crosses the State to fight.
The White House says that Obama is on listening tour to hear from the Americans about the economy and talk about jobs and job boost to. Jobs are with U.S. unemployment at just over 9 percent involved the central question for the voters in the President and Congress are elections next year.
Obama said he would put a plan for economic growth at the Congress of summer break returns and legislators to be questioned.
"I will put forward are entirely if they have a specific plan to increase the economy to create jobs and control our deficit in September again." "And my attitude is finished--."
The tour exposes the Democratic President to the voters who interpret polls indicate angry are about political gridlock in Washington, because it starts serious campaigns for the November 2012 election.
Obama touted his job growth of agenda, including pacts and promotion of the infrastructure projects to create construction jobs expand a tax cut wage and salary statement, conclusion of free trade agreements.
But a divided Congress, where Republicans control the House of representatives and against any significant spending measures for the promotion of growth are bound Obama hands.
Obama quotes a column by Warren Buffett, in which the billionaire investor said the rich "by the Congress to argue for tax increases on the rich as well spending cuts which the deficit gap close amicably was had".
CREATION OF JOBS AT TOP
He cited a debate last week, the Republicans vying for the party presidential nomination, in which all eight said, that she would not consider allowing that even a $1-boost in Staatseinnahmen--through taxes or fees-for every $10 in cuts.
"This is not just common sense," said Obama, Minnesota earlier.
Republicans suggested the trip as a taxpayer-funded "tour and Obama debt end" bus on high unemployment, record government debt and the weakening economy hammered.
Some Obama of fellow Democrats disappointment have expressed, that the President has not promoted plans aggressive jobs boost growth.
Obama was a divisive debate on the public debt and deficits that triggered and undermine the public believe a downgrade in the U.S. credit rating distracted in Washington for much of the summer.
"Only by this debacle with the debt ceiling-a completely self-inflicted wound, we went", Obama said. Because of the policies "some in Congress would rather see, their opponents lose than win America, we ended up creating more insecurity and more damage to an economy that was already weak."
A Gallup tracking completed Saturday's poll Obama with 39 percent Zustimmung--the lowest his presidential-but the last polls showed significantly lower approval ratings for Congress.
Obama keeps a rural economic forum in Peosta, Iowa, on Tuesday and town hall meeting in Atkinson and alpha, Illinois, on Wednesday before returning to Washington.
The distinctive campaign will help style of travel, to test the Democratic President, its organisation and the popular sports like field that accepts Republican presidential candidate of clear form support.
Texas Governor Rick Perry entered the race for the Republican nomination on Saturday and joined immediately early leader Mitt Romney and Michele Bachmann in the top tier of candidates in the field.
