Whoops should of kept reading
IYAS9YAS' 401k since Obama was elected in primaries - down 45%
Our only hope is that America can survive this until we can put the adults back in charge. He's counting on the Clinton retreads to bring back the "Clinton economy." Not going to happen.
Right - McCain said it before the election, and Obama after.
Imagine if the situation were reversed - Obama spoke before the election, lost, and then President McCain said what he said two weeks after the swearing in.
And then compare the coverage this statement will receive to the (hypothetical) coverage in my scenario.
Maybe a long way to go to make a point, but there it is.
So—how many of our presidents have been trained economists?
Right on... he's just the figure head (albeit not so bright) of big money thuggery that put him in. They just needed a puppet who dazzled the American idol crowd.
Any self-respecting person without training would just shut up when it comes to expressing opinions in a field in which he admittedly has no training. But O is too narcissistic to ever shut up about anything. His adoring fans in the MSM and the ignorant sheeple have been telling him how great he is for so long, he now believes his own press clippings, notwithstanding his lack of training. Scary.
He is a Saul Alinsky trained radical communist....
I remember an Obama voter in the Texas primary saying that questioning Obama’s lack of experience wasn’t fair because “you have to start somewhere”.
"Senator McCain, Senator Obama, I am providing you both with a large piece of oak tag and a black Sharpie marker. Please, without sharing your work, draw a basic supply and demand graph and label supply, demand, quantity supplied, quantity demanded and equilibrium."
I would put $1000 cash on the barrelhead that neither could do it.
0bambi is out of his league, over his head, and arrogant as hell.
Learning about the economy? He’d ought to start with some US History, IMO. We cannot spend our way out of recession/depression on the wallets of future generations. This was proven in the 1930’s under FDR’s New Deal.
0bambi’s version is properly the ‘Raw Deal’, and the whole country is poised for another BOHICA moment, thanks to arrogant gasbags like Barney Frank, Tim Geithner, Harry Reid, SanFranNan, and the rest of the LibTard DhimmiRats working so diligently to push the US into their utopian socialist mold.
$700 billion, last year. Talk of another $700 billion soon for the banks and such. And, nearly a trillion (not counting interest on the debt) for a Porkumongous LibTard Trip-to-the-Candystore spending nightmare.
For the sake of the nation, people, raise hell with ALL your elected representatives, city council to the US Congress and the White House. Let them know that this insanity will NOT be tolerated any longer.
We owe that much to our children and our grandchildren and all the future generations that will bear the burden of this foolhardy gamesmanship.
I can tell that a lot of people who are commenting only read the title.
Just take a moment. Get in your memory capsule. And rocket back to the unrelenting attack against John McCain by Barack Obama for saying, “I’m not an expert on the economy.”
And then ask yourself how much of a hypocrite Obama was - and is - for doing that.
What in the hell are you blathering about?
How in the world do you get “I’m a marxist” from my article?
Who let you out of that mental institution you’ve obviously been in?

I can't stand the guy but what do you expect...he's a politician!
In the event that you were talking about Obama, I apologize in advance for my earlier remark. The word “you” addressed to Michael Eden kind of fooled me.
If you were saying the guy who wrote the piece is a marxist idiot, well, I’m back to what I said in my last comment.
As angry as I am at liberals and Democrats, I’m even MORE angry at the media.
We are living in an age of propaganda. People are systematically being fed liberal horsesh!t. It’s just unrelenting. And democracy is doomed if it continues.
No free society can long survive the climate of propaganda we’re in today.
I think he’s referring to Obammy.
I think you’re right.
And most Representatives and most Senators couldn’t do it, either.
Btw, Timothy Geithner gave an interview in Forbes and confessed he “doesn’t like math.”
And now we’ve got a guy who apparently can’t even figure out how to use Turbo Tax running our whole damn economy - because apparently he’s the BEST guy we’ve got to run our economy.
“...not a trained economist...”
-But HE should be in charge of confiscating and spending OUR money for us?!?!?
is above the bamster’s paygrade
Rush is on vacation this week so Bambi gets to make and then step in all his “executive order” cowpies pretty much unchallenged
which is starting to wake up the MSM
