I don’t think that jobless claims for a week ending four days after the inauguration should be blamed on Obama.

I don’t trust the stimulus but let’s be realistic.

It’s a joke. Just like the libs blamed every bad thing that happened on GWB, we find it amusing to play the same game, tongue in cheek, of course, with Zero.

“I don’t think that jobless claims for a week ending four days after the inauguration should be blamed on Obama.”

OF COURSE they should be blamed on and are Obama’s fault. From mid-Oct on, when it was clear that he was going to be elected, the jobless claims are his fault.

This is the guy that ran on taxing small business and compelling employers to pay ever more for employees, including a health plan that called for mandatory employer participation. Add to that the rat increases in minimum wage, and, it is quite logical to fire any and all excess employees in droves prior to any action on the part of Obama.

The markets - and smart businessmen - don’t act today based on today’s conditions. They act today based on expectations of conditions 6-9 months from now.

If I were trying to expect the results of runaway spending to cure runaway spending AND a gov’t determined to do so on the backs of small business - I would be ditching all but essential personnel as well.

It IS Obama’s fault. If you don’t understand that, then you have no clue how business works. THAT could qualify you for a job in Congress.

I read the occasional posting on these threads about how one, "Can't blame Obama for this in only his second week in office." WRONG! Did everyone seem to forget that HUGH crash the week after the election happened?

They've been in charge. They've been in control. THEY get the blame.
Unfortunately, we all pay.

I agree, but Pelosi and Reid are fair game.
