You must be under the mistaken impression that comrade Hussein 0bama cares. The worse things get, the more he will have the peasants under his thumb. Now go away, and leave him alone. He has to get ready for his tee time and start planning his next luxury vacation.
“who swallow the Obama administration’s argument that it has produced significant job growth and reduced unemployment”
January 2009 unemployment rate was 7.6%.
That’s right, the best UE rate of his term has been the very first day. Absolutely no ‘improvement’ has occurred.
Napoleon is rumored to have once said “Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity”.
But I think we are beyond stupidity, here. The economic preformance of this administration is so poor, there has to be some reason why they are intentionally sabotaging the US economy. You can’t get to where we are by accident.
One theory is that it is simple graft gone wild. Chicago on the Potomac, and all that. The US Government has been turned into a money machine for Obama and his cronies, and we are suffering as a result. While this is certainly true, as we witness Hundreds of Billions of dollars being siphoned off to politically connected donors and bundlers, the US economy should be strong enough to overcome malfeasance, even on such a massive scale.
My feeling is that the economy is being stifled intentionally, and the ability of people to make money and become rich through the traditional path of free enterprise is being destroyed for a purpose. And that purpose is to destroy the notion, previously held by the US people as a matter of bedrock faith, that one can lift oneself up to the level of the rich through hard work and initiative.
Class warfare has never worked in the United States because the people, in the main, fail to resent the wealthy. The reason they do not resent the wealthy is because they hope to become wealthy themselves one day, and think it is a realistic possibility. In order to get class warfare to florish in this country, that attitude must be snuffed out.
One way to do that is to raise the barriers to entry, by complicating business and making it more difficult to start up. Existing businesses must also be suppressed. The explosion of regulation and the high cost of employment have seen to that. Obamacare is custom-made for this purpose.
Another element is to ensure that the only path to success is through seeking favor with the government. There will be rich people, but folks have to know that the path to wealth is only open to politically connected insiders, and not to them.
Once people accept that they will not be able to elevate themselves to the levels of the rich, they can be induced to resent the rich, class warfare can thrive, and the revolution will be all but won.
I think the writer is largely on target.
Things for Obama are spiraling downwards, and the mainstream media is beginning to realize that this has surpassed their ability to spin him out of it.
Pretty soon they are going to have to cut bait and begin engaging in damage control if they want to try and preserve any shreds of credibility.
as rats dive overboard, saying “Yes we can!”
The Rats in Congress know what is coming.
Jimmy Carter - Now available in black.
Reagan practiced “Trickle Down Economics”. Obama uses “Trickle Up Poverty”.
I just got a call from my realtor - have to lower price again! Prices still plummeting.
That is likely to provide cover for local government raising property taxes.
You said it, and he won’t stop until he achieves his goal
Total BS - prices are plummeting and there are no buyers because everyone knows the economy is a DISASTER with no hope at all until ObaMAO is gone.
I know it’s BS, but that is what the Fed just put out.
I think he’s got both covered there.
What we need is a republican president who will appoint an Elliot Ness “type” to investigate the voter fraud and money laundering. Unfortunately, I don’t see one on the horizon.

They (politicians) are all obamas, potential and actual—and worse!
Their accomplices are government, industry, business, media, etc, etc...
And “they” all will walk away rich and scot-free... nothing new there!
Why? The populace has never gotten over their yearning for a king...usually a king of their choice, but will settle for less...
“We” could try electing a righteous individual for a change—if that one could be found; but then someone said that if elections settled anything they would have been outlawed long ago...
What to do...what to do...everything seems to be a catch-22/gotcha situation...
Semper Watching!

Bingo!...his mission is simply to bankrupt this nation without “We the People” realizing it.......
