President Obama has been a community organizer, a law professor, and a politician. While those are “jobs” in the everyday sense of the word, they are not business jobs.

He also worked as the director of Project Vote, as a civil rights attorney for many years, served on the board of directors and as the President of the Board of a number of prominent foundations, and obviously is also a successful author.

Romney’s actually been using variants of this in his stump speech for months, for example:

“To create jobs, it helps to have had a job.”

Which in later speeches morphed into “real job” — like this:

“I don’t happen to think Barack Obama is a bad guy, I just don’t think he has a clue. Never having worked in the private sector, never having had a real job, it’s not a surprise he doesn’t know how to create a real job.”

IMO, yes, it’s pretty f’in offensive.
