Harry Reid today found himself in seeming disagreement with an opinion expressed by both President Obama and GOP senate nominee Sharron Angle. For weeks the Reid campaign has been bashing Sharron Angle for her “not my job to create jobs” statement as seen (among other places) in this television ad:

But President Obama also said (today in Cleveland) it is not the government’s role to create jobs:

Although during a recent trip to Las Vegas the president did say his attitude (“and Harry’s”) is that government should “help” private companies grow through “investment,” presumably with tax dollars distributed by the government:

Reid, who has been fairly careful to refer to the jobs he helped save at the CityCenter development in Las Vegas as “private sector,” told ABC’s Jonathon Karl over the weekend he does think his role is to create jobs:

The Angle and Reid campaigns this afternoon pushed these clips and quotes by press release along with the Nevada Republican Party and Republican National Senatorial Committee press offices.

Team Reid said the “false and misleading attacks by Sharron Angle and her allies” regarding President Obama’s remarks today in Cleveland confirm “she will do nothing to help create jobs in Nevada.”

The state GOP said the president has “finally read the writing on the wall and admitted that the private sector, not the government, will get America’s economy back on track” and “Harry Reid continues to push for more reckless spending that has only driven up our national debt and failed to create jobs for the nearly 195,000 unemployed Nevadans.”
