$10 billion in new trade deals with India, saying they will help finance 54,000 jobs in the United States.
The devil is in the details.
This article doesn't bother to mention what ANY of the details of this agreement were,
Merely that it will"create" jobs.
Okay, and how many jobs will it "destroy"?
We have absolutely no way of knowing.
No doubt not have any facts won't prevent some of us from declaring it a victory or defeat, but that's to be expected from clueless partisans.
The commercial deals include the purchase of 33 737s from Boeing by India's SpiceJet Airlines; the Indian military's plans to buy aircraft engines from General Electric; and preliminary agreement between Boeing and the Indian Air Force on the purchase of 10 C17s.
For the most part, the deals were already pending, but the White House contends Obama's visit to India helped finalize them. Officials said the deals would support 53,670 U.S. jobs, but it was not clear how many, if any, new jobs would be created as a result.

Looks like a good deal for the US, IMO.
To all the Republicans whining on why Obama would want to visit India.....
With almost a billion person market, why wouldn't the US want to open up trade possibilities?
India is a valuable ally

I wonder if this falls under the category of jobs saved? I remember the announcements coming out of the WH bragging about the great job they did with the stimulus....." but we saved a gazillion jobs in America" " well Mr. President how many new jobs did you create?"
"Well Mr. President"?.......At that point the teleprompter broke down....
Well at Michelle gets another vacation,she could use the break.

nice strawman, but then again, par for the course.
Who complained about his going to India?
Employment Situation Summary
Wow 54,000 jobs.Good work Mr. President.....I'm sure the 14.8 million who are still unemployed will see this as a major accomplishment.I know the Left leaning ones on this board will see it that way as well.
