“You can’t fool all of the people all of the time” was never truer.
With today’s Rasmussen index showing Obama at -5 he’s been below zero since last Thursday. EVEN CNN is saying Obama’s support has slipped 10 points since its last survey.
This clown’s mask is melting away. Even his half witted voters are beginning to “get it” as they sit home unemployed because they believed in “change.”
Even the lap dog media is waking up.
“The Atlantic,” (TA) no friend of conservatism, has posted a sobering argument that unemployment will hit a Great Depression like 14%.
TA argues the “stimulus” package rammed through in January did exactly nothing to curb unemployment. It brought us only climbing unemployment and greater debt.
Private business investment (PBI) is shrinking. Without PBI, jobs can’t be created in the private sector where new employment has to come from. This factor alone will soon bring us 14% unemployment, but that’s not the end of our Obama caused miseries.
The declining PBI is getting “help” in our destruction.
The big bomb is the hidden “under employment” throughout the private sector. Cautious employers are being caught between hoping things will improve and the realities of inevitably decreasing their work force.
Besides making some layoffs, employers are cutting hours and using part timers. These moves obscure our real unemployment situation. When employers can’t keep juggling workers the house will fall down.
TA concludes the unemployment number might already be 16.5% when the elusive “gave up looking” unemployed workers are factored in.
One thing is certain, we will see 10% unemployment next month or in September. There's nothing on the horizon that can change what will happen. The question will be: What will Americans do about it?
Cleaning house in the Congress looks like a likely beginning.

All going according to the plans of the Manchurian candidates handlers.
Don’t you know, its all Bushes Fault! Obama needs more time to fix things. He’s going to fix us into a real depression.
““The Atlantic,” (TA) no friend of conservatism, has posted a sobering argument that unemployment will hit a Great Depression like 14%. “
Which if it was calculated as it was in the Great Depression, we are already at nearly 20%.
Naw, “they” didn’t plan this ~ but the people fooled them and voted in Herbert Hoover anyway!
Poor people don’t create jobs. Entrepreneurs do.
Yet the “Stimulus” bill helped who? Not folks who have to meet a payroll or make their companies grow.
Garbage in, garbage out.
Mr. Obama just doesn’t understand much - except spending money on programs and people that do not work.
Cleaning house in the Congress looks like a likely beginning.
Yes, and the Senate where possible.
Even CNN? Maybe it's more like 15 points.
Poor people don’t create jobs. Entrepreneurs do
Absolutely.
If we had REAL GOP leadership(not RINOS) they would be screaming this fact at the top of their lungs!!!
The 30th jobs report will be a real important milestone. If the rate of loss remains nearly the same it will point to getting to the 12-14% range before the end of the year.
That will be when the mob gets out it’s pitchforks.
Plan that there will be a MSM(gov) push do convince us things are getting better, but this time..no one will believe them.
The country won't make real progress until people realize this. Tax cuts don't "help the rich" -- they grow the economy and put poor people to work. The "rich" are not the enemy -- they are the hope of the future. The "poor" are not noble and oppressed -- they are a source of problems.
Our world and our values was turned upside down a long time ago. We need to turn it rightside up -- and we need to ignore the people who say "Why are you turning the world upside down?"
So many of these big firms are in a holding pattern because BamBam and his czars are constantly sending conflicting messages.
Not true. A very bad, grossly wrong notion.
Most people are and have always been poor/working class. That is were the bulk of the wealth of any nation is. This is why any small tax or burden slows up wealth creation. Wealth is created one dollar at a time, one improved house at a time, improved education at a time.....times millions of individual actors.
A good book on the subject is 'The Other Path' by H. DeSoto. You can get it used at ABE Books for a few bucks.
Unfortunately, so many refuse to believe that. I've even had brainwashed people tell me "capitalism is dead!"
Sigh.
Bambi has no conscience
he is in it for the power the authority the aggrandizement and the money that is all
Cleaning house in the Congress looks like a likely beginning.

One third is ALWAYS possible. Let's do it!
I get either “it’s not socialism” or “what’s wrong with socialism”.
Nothing, I guess, except that it ALWAYS leads to authoritarian communism or fascism, because it can’t be implemented any other way.
Don’t feel bad. A friend has a insulation, home improvement company in Fairfield. Low over head, established for decades, good rep. Last year was his best ever. This year, dead stop. Nada, nothing, like you one/two days a week.
