Why do I get the feeling that all of this doom and gloom build up is to make Obama look like a hero if and when things turn around?

[TigerLikesRooster]

If he take credit for any temporary bounce, he sets himself for a bigger fool when things go down again.

I don't think such a game is at play now. If it is, it would be suicidal.

All the doom and gloom is because the vast majority of people are sheep. Those who were predicting financial crisis even two years ago were openly mocked. Now its become “mainstream opinion”.

[Sacajaweau]

I agree...Where's the "little train that could"??

Remember, this was propogated with the Dems and their: Drill....NEVER--------COAL....NEVER-------

All we got out of them was WIND-----HOT AIR.

And they ruined a whole segment of the economy with the corn for fuel fiasco. Bunch of....well, you know...

Things are not going to turn around.You cannot impose the taxes or whatever the term he will used for them and prosper.

[ken21]

ditto.

Higher taxes plus cap-and-trade will make sure we don’t go into a growth period anytime soon.

That’s why the 0bamabots are telling us it will take 5 years to see positive results.

It won’t be long until the drumbeat starts to repeal term limits from the Constitution. “It will take way more than 8 years to clean up Bush’s mess and bring fundamental change to America.”

Dictators come to power in times of extreme economic crises. It's interesting that 0bama and Rahm Emmanuel look at the crises as an 'opportunity'.

Obama look like a hero if and when things turn around BINGO the economy has no place to go but up and the msm is countting on it the msm will pimp obama for his full term.

Obama may be an old man before this turns around. Usually, we used to have "V"-shaped recoveries as the economy automatcally reset it self. Now I think it will be more like an "L". We are going through a watershed in history and things will never get back to the same as it was earlier. Lots of damage has been, and will be done, and with the current mentality of both political parties, it will be a very long recovery.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Anybody who believes that Islamic Terrorists will sit by idle at a time when the entire Western World is in it’s most vulnerable position since it’s establishment, is incredibly naive that Obama will turn this around with International pacifism.

This is the best opportunity that Islamofascism has ever had to strike a death blow to Capitalism and the “Great Satan”. Expect a nuke to hit somewhere, most likely Israel.
