Just days after the Labor Department announced zero job growth for the month of August, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D.-Fla.), the chair of the Democratic National Committee, said that the economy is “continuing on the upswing" and that every economist "worth their salt" acknowledges that this is the result of the economic stimulus signed into law by President Barack Obama in 2009.

When Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in February of that year, the national unemployment rate was 8.2 percent. As the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported last week, the national unemployment rate was 9.1 percent this August, unchanged from July. Before Obama signed the economic stimulus, his top economic advisers predicted unemployment would stay below 8 percent if it were enacted.

The Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the the stimulus cost $830 billion.

Isn’t she the idiot who thinks the hate speech by Biden and assorted union goons was just peachy? Thinks we should ‘all work together’? Yeah, while the goons take the sons of bitches out? NEVER. There is never a reason to ‘work with liberal bullies.

WOW! What a nutcase! Is this supposed to demonstrate her loyalty to zero or idiocy?

So long sad times
Go long bad times
We are rid of you at last

Howdy gay times
Cloudy gray times
You are now a thing of the past

Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
So let’s sing a song of cheer again
Happy days are here again

Altogether shout it now
There’s no one
Who can doubt it now
So let’s tell the world about it now
Happy days are here again

Your cares and troubles are gone
There’ll be no more from now on
From now on ...

Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
So, Let’s sing a song of cheer again

Happy times
Happy nights
Happy days
Are here again!

Yes Debbie, we know China’s economy is improving, but thanks anyway.

Now, what about the USA economy?

She was interviewed by Gretchen Carlson on Fox & Friends this morning. What an absolute witch this woman is. She actually sneered at Gretchen via broadcast waves.

I saw her original statement, which appeared to be made on MSNBC...how long can even the most liberal network listen to a statement like that, and not remotely challenge it?

The next time she gets near a microphone someone should shove it down her throat.
