How's his plan working...
The plan is working. Down with the imperialist-capitalist pigs. Down with the gun hugging bible thumpers. Hurray for the hope and change crowd. Hurray for the guys who bank rolled my campaign. Hurray for Goldman Sachs.

Employment sinking only eight times faster than Bush’s worst, yep that’s a success!!

Seriously, the Congress needs to cut the porkulus off, now, while 95% has not yet been doled out.

Don’t they get State run AP reports like Foxnews does?

Report: Economists Say Recession Over, Want Bernanke to Stay

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/08/11/report-economists-say-recession-want-bernanke-stay/?test=latestnews

The Journal reports that the experts are overwhelmingly in favor of President Obama asking Bernanke to stay on for another four-year term when his current term ends Jan. 31.

Many companies have been reporting second-quarter earnings results that have beaten expectations despite falling sales, due largely to their aggressive cost cutting.

This is a great article but the haunting question remains: what evidence do we have one way or the other that we were facing a systemic meltdown last September/October and that Bush save the world with his emergency intervention? Or, did Paulson and Bush aggravate the problem and act irrationally when there was no genuine systemic threat?

I completely agree with the Goldman Sachs part and I have so posted even questioning whether Warren Buffett has improperly profited from his connections in the Obama administration, Paulson, Bernacke and the rest of the gang. It is the "nothing more" part about which I am agnostic and wonder if there is any data or proof one way or the other?

I was a little strong with the “nothing more” part but there is no question that many of the key players in government economic moves in the last year or so look like a G.S. alumni club. Paulson, Summers, Geithner, etc.—it’s a cosiderable list.
