Are those comments unusual? Previously, were they usually for him? And those his followers?

Again, I say it's Bush's fault! I have implemented major jobs initiatives during my tenure which staved off even HIGHER unemployment numbers than this 9.2%

What I said about the stimulus and that mythical 8% limit the stimulus would cap it to would be true were it not for those lazy Republicans who stalled progress at every opportunity - they even kept us from implementing our programs when they were in the minority.

In order to get this number down, I need another 4 years, plus ANOTHER stimulus package of 5T, plus QE II,III, and IV in addition to massive tax hikes on those greedy damned millionaires and billionaires making $250K or more gross income per year.

It’s the private sector’s fault because they are not creating new jobs fast enough (to save his re-election bid).

"Not created overnight, not solved overnight"

Um, you've had two and a half years and counting...

8% cap

Don't forget, that claim was BEFORE the rate was rescaled down 1% last December. So using the (still flawed) older scaling, unemployment is at 10.2% -- more than 25% higher than his supposed "maximum" under Porkulus... and that assuming you actually believe that this figure represents an accurate view of unemployed Americans.

Roads, bridges, trains?

I think people use those to go to WORK genius-if they don’t have JOBS they won’t have any money to GO anywhere

“What more really needs to be said.”

That the recession began with the 2007 Democratic control of Congress. Bush didn’t write their legislation.

It’s the Democrats’ recession.

He can't get any underlings to walk out on stage and address this.

His own advisers now think he's a “_ick”.

You and I know that, but we’ll never get it said on air.

Good enough just to say that Reagan handled his recession, Clinton his, Bush his, and Obama has crashed and burned.

He and Carter are in a class by themselves.

Mr. Malaise and Mr. Teleprompter are pals.

Obama is SO in over his head...what a fool...how can this community agitator and bull-shiter be our President??

So many stupid people. I still see Obama/Biden bumper stickers and I usually yell "How's that Hope & Change going for ya?" and just get a dirty look. Hehe. I'm always armed, so I could care...
