Obama tries to boost faith in US economic revival
AFP ^ | Aug. 18, 2010

President Barack Obama held a kitchen table summit to try to restore Middle America's sinking faith in his administration's ability to revive the lackluster US economy. The souring economy and stubbornly high unemployment have seen Obama's poll numbers slump to all-time lows and they are threatening to drag down his fellow Democrats in looming mid-term elections in November.

Hope and Change may not be working for many, but many more are too stubborn to admit it, don’t you think?

As it says in the Scriptures than many won’t read, the blind lead the blind, and they both fall into the ditch.

FRiend, I have been following and actively involved in politics for over 35 years.

I was pleased with the Republican victory in 1994, but know for a fact that the annihilation that the dims are going to experience in November will be unprecedented!!

Can't wait til 0bozo is kicked out in 2012!!

Keep smiling!!

Joe Weithman, who heads up a small architecture firm and held on to two employees during the economic slowdown because of new projects made possible as part of his 787-billion-dollar stimulus package.

Weithman’s wife Rhonda not only lost her job last year but was forced to relinquish the medical care coverage it provided.

Rhonda worked for her husband’s “small architecture firm”.

Obama talks about the economy as a stuck car metaphor.

I would like to add/change his metaphor:

Since Obama has absolutely no idea how to drive. He has stolen everyone’s wallet in the car, slashed the tires, set fire to the car. And now wants to put a Mosque on the site to commemorate the event.

Oh yeah, he has taken the insurance money and sent Michelle to Spain.

Car probably would have got unstuck if he had let all of the illegals out of the trunk.
