Don’t pay any attention the whatever he says. It’s what he DOES that matters. He’ll say anything that will get his poll numbers above 50% and do absolutely the opposite of what he says...............

Is Zero taking a page out of Clintoon’s Presidency? We will have to wait and see. Zero is good at SAYING one thing and DOING the exact opposite.
Zer0 is still a f’n retarded empty suit.
He is really just saying that he wants to purposely devalue the dollar to nominally increase wages and artificially boost exports. That’s a great plan.
This is Keynesian. That philosophy isn’t just “spend your way out of a recession”, it also rails against perpetual trade deficits and argues for the implementation of tariffs to arrest their growth. Obama is 100% on board with Keynesian economic policies, and this further cements that fact.
OK, so how do you export more when you've priced your local labor higher than global labor? Oh, that's right--import more illegal labor and let employers pay them slave wages while you look the other way.
all democrats talk like republicans when they get worried about re-election
Coming from the same guy who last week submitted a budget with an astronomicle, record smashing 1.5 TRILLION dollar deficit.
The disconnnect between what this man says and what he does is impossible. He's either a blatant craven liar who really believes EVERYONE who hears him is a deluded moron, or he himself is a deluded moron.
Incredible.
“....we need to move beyond an economy that is fueled by budget deficits and consumer demand,” the president said.”
Well...I am glad to hear he plans to repeal NAFTA.....
0bama is becoming Clintoon.What he is saying are focus-group vetted phrases.
Obama’s words are just as useless as he is.
He tells everyone what they want to hear and then sets about implementing his original program.
As Rasmussen polls have shown, voters are so desperate for good news, they'll believe him (temporarily).
BTW, this kind of ploy is only available to pathological liars...honest men and women just can't stomach telling such whoppers.
The Obamination slipped up, and admitted his true nature! He wants prosperity to be truly shared! He wants those that sit on their a**es to get the same economic benefits as those that invest in education and work to support themselves! He wants an economy not driven by consumer demand -- he wants the government to drive the economy, rather than consumers.
Sounds just like communism, an economy centrally driven by the government, where everyone is equally miserable. His utopia already exists in China. Perhaps he should move there.
May our parents forgive us for squandering their sacrifices by electing this communist b*stard. May our children forgive us for recklessly endangering their future.
No. Nothing but empty words. He will throw money down the big government drain faster than ever, and claim at the same time that he is balancing the budget.
Only Bush left him such a terrible mess, it will take more time to do it.
What politicians LOVE about Keynes is that he gives them permission to print as much pork as they want.
When critics asked where this would lead in the long run, Keynes famously responsed; “In the long run we are all dead.” Not so widely known, perhaps, is the fact that Keynes was an open homosexual, even back when it was illegal. So, he didn’t give a damn about what would happen down the line to other people’s children. He didn’t have any children, and had no interest in them.
Barry is probably gay, too. So what does he care about children, beyond using them as cover and as photo ops?
“For growth to be truly sustainable — for our prosperity to be truly shared and our living standards to actually rise — we need to move beyond an economy that is fueled by budget deficits and consumer demand,”
To me that sounds like he is joining the far-left in their calls to abandon consumerism and move to sustainable collective organic farms where we can all sing kumbaya.
i had to look to see if this came from the onion or debka...

It's talk, people. Believe what the man does, not what he says.
He's just going through the predictable "move toward the center" rhetoric that every liberal spouts as election time nears.
