President Obama put his rosy glasses on for an interview with CNBC on Thursday, claiming “It’s pretty hard to find an economic measure where we’re not significantly better off.” Obama spoke with CNBC’s Steve Liesman about the economic policies pushed by the White House and what the federal government expects going forward. “What can you tell average Americans about the outlook of the economy?” Liesman asked, noting that even Obama’s own former economic advisor Larry Summers is forecasting lower growth over the next few years. Obama dismissed that notion. “If you think about where we were, Steve, when I came

The master at PsyOps (Psychological Operations) was Goebbels. He did say over and over again: "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

He would also say that "the lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie.

It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State."

He wants civil war.

Nothing new for this demon spawn from Hell son a MOSLEM screwing whore .

[Rome2000]

The Same Reasoning, which will induce you to admit all Men, who have no Property, to vote, with those who have, for those Laws, which affect the Person will prove that you ought to admit Women and Children: for generally Speaking, Women and Children, have as good Judgment, and as independent Minds as those Men who are wholly destitute of Property: these last being to all Intents and Purposes as much dependent upon others, who will please to feed, cloath, and employ them, as Women are upon their Husbands, or Children on their Parents.

Depend upon it, sir, it is dangerous to open So fruitfull a Source of Controversy and Altercation, as would be opened by attempting to alter the Qualifications of Voters. There will be no End of it. New Claims will arise. Women will demand a Vote. Lads from 12 to 21 will think their Rights not enough attended to, and every Man, who has not a Farthing, will demand an equal Voice with any other in all Acts of State. It tends to confound and destroy all Distinctions, and prostrate all Ranks, to one common Level.

“It’s pretty hard to find an economic measure where we’re not significantly better off.”

Obowma is absolutely right: It is pretty hard to find anything regarding this Administration. It has either been cover-up, destroyed, mutilated, mutated, white-washed, or eaten by the dog.

Unemployment rate under Bush’s two terms averaged at 5.3%. That’s including the impact of 9/11. Even with manipulation of the numbers by excluding workers (they gave up) and conversion to lousy part-time jobs these crooks can’t come close to that. The people without jobs know the real situation.

all is needed is a chart for Bush years vs Obama years that compares the overall rate and also depicts full-time employment vs part-time and the participation rate. Even then Obama would stand there and say his results are better since he is a pathological liar.

I could certainly give him a list. As could 99% of middle-class Americans, I suspect.
