It’s hard for me to get by the grammar in the first sentence. Does Town Hall not have an editor?

barak is not about to back down now. All this economic destruction is being done on purpose. His “economic” team is just now starting to develop a conscience and figuring out that they are in deep kimchee.
Watch who the replacements are.

Van Jones?

fits the pattern.

Barry’s former economic team members knew what they were doing when they hired on. They are only leaving because they don’t want to take the blame. They are not leaving because their advice wasn’t taken or that Barry wanted to do something different. They knew exactly what was going to happen.

But I hope you get the drift?

-——The Obama Administration’s job-creation strategies has resulted in a jump in unemployment to 9.1%,-——

This is an interesting claim.

I would argue that the reason for the defections is that the defecting insiders were tasked with fudging the unemployment number and publishing the lie. They know their efforts are in vain and that the truth will ultimately surface.

The adjustment required to bring the unemployment to actual will be a killer. The hope, the salvation, would be a decrease that would eventually allow the fudge to flatten. That has not happened. The number has increased and the fudge is no longer adjustable and creditable.

The defections in effect leave the President and their gullible replacements holding the bag.

I don't know many intelligent people who have believed any of the unemployment numbers put out by the 0bama regime.

>>Mr. Obama’s supporters certainly understand that when key staffers depart en masse, they are essentially fleeing a losing endeavor and are hoping to get out before recriminations for failure have a chance to permanently tarnish personal reputations.

I have no confidence whatsoever that anything like a majority of Obama supporters have the analytic powers to understand this.

They figure if they leave their roles will be forgotten and they’re right.

The only reason why the brilliant, really-really smart, outstandingly superior Democrat plan is trouble is because of President Bush.

All of Obama’s so called highly educated ecomomists should not only resign, they should be denied any teaching positions in academia until they go back to school themselves.

All of them are fools and indoctrinated idiots. What they have done to this country is criminal.

I think that’s more plausible than the idea that they somehow disagree with Obama’s (and their own) ruinous policies.

Liberal economists never have to worry about the actual outcome of what they advocate—it is good enough for them that their motivation is commendable. Sure, they may argue that their policies will lead to favorable results; but at worst, reality may simply force them to claim that their policy wasn’t implemented thoroughly enough or on a large enough scale.

The numbers must be wrong. Otherwise, it would mean that Obama, who told us it was necessary to print all this money, stoke inflation, send oil over $100 and gold over $1,500 and send our debt higher than GDP, to keep unemployment rate below 8%, was pulling a fast one. /sarc
So Jackwagon Obama never created or saved any green shoots, even the ones the the piss-stream media harped about?

All I know is that if they tell us we had 1.8% growth, it really means we had no growth or negative growth.

The anomaly of the current recession is the anomaly of Zer0's political philosophy and worldview.

Obama never intended to 'deliver.' Obama intended to redistribute wealth and punish successful people.

Winning rule in 2012: Direct political attack on Obama!

Hopefully Zer0's massive incompetence will move more to vote against him in 2012. We'll see.

This is what the Rats hope for and you seem to be agreeing with it

Yea, I agree with it. Do you disagree? The public is stupid.
