Who will Obama blame for the economy now?

Who will Obama blame for the economy now? The Dow has declined 25% this year. Why is that? The reason is investor and consumer sentiment are at record lows. Although Obama's poll numbers are still at a normal level for a new President, the country thinks we are still going in the wrong direction. The stimulus bill did nothing to change that perception. Most people realize there was very little in the stimulus bill about stimulating the economy. Most of the money went to social programs and Democratic special interest groups. The money allocated for infrastructure improvements won't be spent anytime soon. Also, investors are wary of new taxes on businesses and individuals. In spite of spending hundreds of billions to bail out banks, the banking crisis continues. While this is occurring, President Obama is talking down the expectations for a quick recovery or stock market rebound. Where is the "hope?"

We’re about 6 months from the public deciding that the Economy is Obama’s problem and that he is making things worse.

Simple: You underestimate the capacity of the lefties to blame conservatives. It’s Bush’s fault. Bush and the GOP. If the GOP had voted for the stimulus bill, then the Dems would not have had to cut it so much. The problem with the stimulus bill is that it’s too small. Should have been twice as big, and the tax cuts should have been eliminated.

Well, it IS his problem. Every time he opens his mouth, the DJIA falls two or three hundred points.

Oh I agree. I’m saying it will take about 6 more months for the public to start to realize that.

I’ll go out on a limb and predict less. His ratings will be in the toilet by June. Look for the Blue Dogs to start running for cover as well, because they’ll be up for re-election in conservative districts and they’ll have a hard time explaining their votes on Zero’s Grand Government Giveaway.

Monica Crowley was asking for slogans/catch phrases on her show today, to explain this joker in the white house...well, considering the real one (of this person)'s ability to lie like crazy, even with tons of evidence to refute him, in the spirit of the Iraqi military liar, Obama is "Baghdad Barry".

They are masters at twisting facts and figures to form any shape or agenda.

He's in the left seat at the controls flying the plane into a building--the narcissist puke should man up and take the heat.
