WASHINGTON -- Top aides to President-elect Barack Obama said Sunday that it didn't take a couple months for the economy to get in such dire straits, so no one should expect a recovery in that amount of time.

If these guys can't fix the problems they caused in just the last three months they don't have a hair.

I don't give 'em until June and they'll all be out on the street.

There will be no recovery only the destruction of everything our forefathers fought and died for. Welcome to Liberal Land, in other words, the end of the road!

“So. what they are saying is No free petrol for my car, I still must pay my mortgage....? They promised it would all be free. Did they lie to me ?
Ponder the little idiots who voted for HUSSEIN.

I'm going to be generous, and give him until the end of the week.

For a guy who can reduce the sea levels, fixing the economy should be a piece of cake.

“it didn't take a couple months for the economy to get in such dire straits”

Actually it took two years from the time the Democrats took over Congress in 2006, plus about a decade of enforcing the CRA on banks begun by Clinton, and Bush's appointment of Democrats and RINOs - like Paulson and Cox to positions of power over the economy.

I've always been an optimist. I'm finding that very difficult to do right now.

“I don't give ‘em until June and they'll all be out on the street”

An interesting comment. What is it that you are proposing? All the Democrat politicians will resign in shame? The American people will demand a special election and throw them out? (We don't have Vote of Confidence in the US, like parliamentary political systems have).

I'm curious how you think that can happen.

“I don’t give ‘em until June and they’ll all be out on the street.”

I think that’s wishful thinking.

OB actually didn’t think all of his adorers really believed he would do all he said he would.
Must have heard a rumor of marchers and pitchforks descending on him when ALL the peoples bills and debts aren’t at zero balance come Jan 21....
Time for my meds....

Actually, and for sure, more than four years — so it should mean that a lot of people will be mad at Obama by that time and ready to kick him out of office... :-)

Sooner perhaps?

This is not just the most corrupt regime ever voted into office, they are also the most inept ~ and he hasn't even taken the oath of office.

I see a falling out among thieves shortly.

“OB actually didn't’t think all of his adorers really believed he would do all he said he would.”

I'm afraid that some of us Conservatives are missing the point. Obie didn't promise US anything. He knows that the folks, to whom he made the promises, did believe him. And he plans to deliver on those promises - by taking stuff away from US.

Democrats have publicly stated that they plan to confiscate our IRA’s and 401k’s, etc. Now, let's see - who has self-funded retirement plans? Ghetto folks or Freepers? Who bought houses that they couldn't afford, and will be bailed out by the Federal Gov’t? Ghetto folks or Freepers?

Military Retirees have been told that their health care costs are going to increase astronomically, while Obie's followers will get free health care.

Get the picture?

Those who were stuck in East Germany during the Soviet era and are now living in the U.S. will recognize their past returning very soon.
