Just When You Thought The Obama Economy Can't Get Any Worse, It's Getting A Lot Worse

This failed social experiment has the nation dearly.

[MileHi]

has cost...

[Jim Robinson]

and will cost...

[mosaicwolf]

But.....unemployment is at 5.5%! That is only 1.5% from so called full employment. How can this be? Something is amiss here. Cooking the books maybe? If anybody accepts the 5.5% unemployment figure they are total morons. I guess there are a lot of them. Obama was reelected.

[MileHi]

Yep, my kids AND grandkids.

[tet68]

...in the next two years too.
It’s not going to suddenly improve, unless
Obama gets the war he’s been working toward.

[Kaslin]

Of course something is amiss when the books are cooked

[IncPen]

Unprecedented money-printing, with a rubber-stamp Congress for his first six years.

And still...

[SunkenCiv]

The Obama Recession

to go with

The Obama Tax Hikes

[From The Deer Stand]

Bush’s fault, of course.

This economy isn't going to ever regain its full health and vigor until the voters put someone else in the Oval Office who knows what it takes to get the engine of growth running at full throttle again.

If a good person (Cruz) gets into the Oval Office, the media will go into overdrive with TONS of bad economic news, scandals and stories of suspected corruption. They will sabotage all efforts at real progress. The people will lament "the good old days" when Obama made the economy hum -- no matter what the economy is doing in 2017: it won't be as good as the glory days of 2009-2016.

Why couldn’t the Federal Reserve and the Media just prop-up the Supreme Being until a Republican can be blamed?

[Jim Robinson]

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money... and then run up the national debt so high all credit is finally cut off. At that point the unavoidable outcome is total collapse and another fallen empire. A fate our founders tried so hard to avoid.

[Kaslin]

It doesn’t have to be Cruz necessary as long as the new elected president is a republican and especially a conservative. I have figured the progressive media out long ago

[wny]

The entire idea of a "recovery" is only repeated relentlessly by the mediawhores due to one simple fact: there is a demhole in the Whitehouse. If the president was a republican, any republican, and absolutely nothing was different, the mediawhores would be bleating about a recession, if not a depression.

As for this alleged recovery, if you go into the hospital and you're expected to recover in a two weeks, and you're still there a year later, you're not recovering. You're waiting to die. Obamas reelection was national suicide.

[Son House]

Let's also remember the Stimulus bill had all those tax cuts credits just like Republicans do...

[Son House]

And oh, seems to me President W. Bush stopped TARP bail-outs and left half the cash because it was no longer necessary to continue bailing.

[DB]

People got what they voted for.

Unfortunately the rest of us get to pay the price too.

>>How can this be?

And in other news the chocolate ration has been increased to 28 grams per week from 45!
