In today's "Weekly Republican Address," House Republican Leader John Boehner asks, "Where are the jobs?"

The president and Democrats in Congress claim this spending binge is necessary to put Americans back to work. They promised unemployment would not rise above 8 percent if their trillion-dollar stimulus was passed.
