Obama says he loves jobs, but hates & works to destroy the people that create them

Tax them all 100%. They are all rich. Why else would any rational person spend millions (often from their own fortunes) for a job paying $170K+?

the Obama Administration says “NOTHING IS POSSIBLE” (their caps, not ours) to help an economy showing new signs of job losses and employer uncertainty.

BS

Reagan had unemployment greater than 10%, high interest rates, and high inflation during his first year in office.His economic program went into effect in October 1981, and by May, 1982 was already starting to work.It only took 8 months.

>>>Nope, 0 is taking a vaca to celebrate his accomplishments that he set out to do. Destroy the American dream.<<

You have a point.

Let’s recap:

O destroys the US economy with ObamaCare, nationalization of banks, auto and insurance. Then he supports 9/11 Mosque, Soros bails out of US— signalling O’s job is done— O creates giant traffic snarl in LA, then gives America the finger from Martha’s Vineyard.

Mission Accomplished.

Republicans on the House Budget Committee have identified $1.3 trillion in spending cuts that could be implemented right now to make Washington do more with less and focus on growing the economy, not the government.

Rather then sitting on your asses posting and re-posting the same mindless bitching at the GOP leadership day in and day out, maybe you CINOs should actually try LISTENING to what they are saying for a change.

Something wicked this way comes - There are too many signs on the wall now to dismiss the possibility that this world is heading towards disaster.

No, the Obozo Admin is correct. “NOTHING IS POSSIBLE” when their end result is the destruction of America and their plans are well on the way to achieving this.

Dunno ‘bout that.
If Hope and Crosby had been running against McCain, I think I might have voted for ‘em.
They’d certainly be an improvement over Obama and Biden.

You’re reading this all wrong...

“NOTHING IS POSSIBLE” FROM the Obama Administration.

Just about anyone that can balance a checkbook could fix the economy.

MNJohnnie, I don’t expect you to get it, after watching your continual drivel focused to garner support for an organization that hates Conservatives, but you do have eyes and you should be able to read.

The Republicans signed on to a program that will cost taxpayers literally trillions of dollars when they signed on to Medicare Part D.

None the less, you turn to them for a remedy to our current situation. I’m not angry with you. I just feel sorry for you.

Living in that dream state may provide peace and tranquility to you, but it doesn’t help get our nation back on track.

Look, drugs will give you peace and tranquility too. I still don’t see them as the solution to our nation’s current predicament.

The Republican party is lying to you. What part of that do you not understand?

I think employers have realized that they can currently operate with fewer employees which allows them to increase the bottom line and prepare for Obamacare.

"TARIFFS RECIPROCITY is the answer. You put tariffs on our goods we will protect our industries."

Just like the rest of the socialists ideas. The haven't worked before, so what makes you think they will this time.

No apology necessary. I got your point and respect it. When I get angry, I take a little hiatus from the news and just stay w/freerepublic. It keeps things in perspective.

The economy was lost the minute McCain won the GOP nomination, guaranteeing an Obamao win.

That's it! A few Republicans in the House identified some cuts? That impresses you? This must be big...why don't you post a linked article listing those cuts if you are so impressed? Then you will have something to talk about.

First Fire leader Boehner, replace him with a non-statist who opposed TARP, Apparently Boehner never heard of these CUTS you are impressed with because he has been asked to identify cuts repeatedly on camera and never cites any. Back in 1994 the conservative Republicans in the house actually wrote balanced budget bills and forced democrats to reject them.

This still doesn't redeem Bush.

Yep...

And now we’re poised to nominate someone who has not only endorsed him for re-election, but has also stated they agree with his policies.

If that doesn’t give pause, nothing will.

Hyperbole aside, there's some truth to that.

When it became clear that Obama was going to be the nominee and was pulling away in the polls, the economy really started going south.

Business owners went into defensive mode over the uncertainty, and everything that the Obama administration has done justified it. So far, they haven't seen any reason to venture out again.
