Is it wrong of me to smile at this news? It seems selfish to want the economy to be really bad for 2012 but that is the way I feel. Anything that hurts Obama.
I've never liked that attitude that some people have, saying they'd like to see the worst candidates win, so that people will see how bad things get and learn a lesson. I'd rather just avoid the bad times. But--I will admit, there is some value in people getting to witness for themselves just how badly a leftist ideologue can mess things up. It's been a LONG time since Carter; many voters today weren't around during his presidency.
Some dedicated leftists won't learn, however. No matter how bad things get, they'll believe that it's because we haven't gone far enough to the left.
“It seems selfish to want the economy to be really bad for 2012 but that is the way I feel.”
You couldn’t be more right. In fact, if the economy isn’t a complete disaster, the inattentive morons that are the American general public, won’t tie it to Obama, (and the MSM will do anything to keep them from doing so).
Over the weekend, I heard people talking about how it seems they spend more money, but can’t understand it since there is no inflation!!!!
They had no clue that food and gas aren’t included in the inflation calculations. I’m telling you, there are people out there that have no clue Obama is wrecking things.
Except that you don't want the economy to be really bad - it's that it already is, we knew that it would be, with the Dems in charge, we just want the blame to go to the proper source. And in a sane world, Obama would be toast. Of course, we don't LIVE in a sane world...
Same with what Rush said, when the WSJ asked him for 400 words about the upcoming BHO disaster, and he said "Hell, I don't need 400 words, I only need four - 'I Hope He Fails'." Because the only way for the country to succeed - and the people in it - would be FOR Obama's policies to fail. Unfortunately, we pay the price while this bastard's out playing golf. Hopefully after January 2013, he can play all the golf he wants - as a private citizen.
