“Floundering” is being kind. Satanic and outed is more like it.

Obama’s post Christian neo pagan decadent America will neither be an inspiration to the world nor a very nice place for its people.

[Slyfox]

It must be nice to have a slush fund the size of the American economy.

6.7% my big ol’ hairy butt, unemployment is probably twice that if we were getting an honest number.

[Hugin]

She expressed grave concern that the economy's 6.7 percent unemployment rate was still significantly above the jobless level the Fed considers normal.

It's also significantly below the actual unemployment rate.

Great quote here from of all people, a university professor:

With his party facing its toughest election challenges in years, “and burdened with persistently high unemployment, Obama is playing the race, gender and class cards. Fabricating fear and injustice, such tactics keep the economy in slow gear and make worse the very people the president professes to help,” says University of Maryland business economist Peter Morici.

Why don’t Republicans attack Obama on these grounds instead of talking about immigration and responding defensively to the Dems attacks?

Floundering? No. Everything is find for our Dear Leader. He's not dealing with the worst economic "recovery" in history. He's not worried about cutting down on his recreation and vacation travel. He doesn't have to sign up for ObamaCare and then look for a doctor who accepts that terrible insurance. He's done everything he wants to do to us - complete success.

.....and that it will likely take two years or more before the U.S. fully recovers from its recession.....

Without a change of leadership, it will be a lot longer than that.

[MulberryDraw]

If Yellen's forecast proves right, this means it will have taken Obama's administration nearly eight years to lift our economy out of its long and painful lethargy.

The Obama administration policies are not lifting the economy. (period)

[TomGuy]

If Obama and supporting Dems were in the private sector and were spreading the same lies [you can keep your plan, etc.] in infomercials, they would probably be arrested, charged with fraud, and end up next to Kevin Trudeau in the orange jumpsuit.

Reid spews his hate and lies from the well of the Senate because there he is legally protected against charges of slander.

The presidency may be floundering, but the behind-the-scene CZARS continue to do untold damage.

It will take a decade or more to realize the amount of damage they have done. It may take decades to overcome them. Look at the half-century of continuing damage from the Carter Middle Eastern policies.

[Pearls Before Swine]

In the Middle East, Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, armed to the teeth by Putin, has for many months been escalating his saturation bombing assault on rebel-held towns, killing thousands of innocent civilians -- with hardly a peep from the White House.

Oh, the WH wants to help the rebels all right, but public opinion views them as an arm of Al Qaeda, and is sick of them persecuting and killing non-combatant Christians.

[JudyinCanada]

Agreed. Floundering would suggest that it actually got off the ground.

It’s intentional “floundering”. Mission accomplished.

[ErnBatavia]

The same people that are telling us that 0baMaocare is a success are the ones that are telling us that the unemployment rate is 6.7%

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

-— It’s intentional “floundering”. Mission accomplished -—

No kidding, huh? I can’t help but laugh out loud when the talking heads wring their hands about Obama’s options in Ukraine, when he’s helping Putin orchestrate the takeover. Obama’s had more flexibility since his reelection, doncha know.

Bump that. We have visible scandals with the IRS, Benghazi, Fast and Furious, etc., but its all the unseen scandals that will only come out after Obama, the proven liar, goes away.
