"Bush Wrecked The Economy And Obama Can't Fix It"

Funny - Buchanan fucked up America and Lincoln didn't whine about Buchanan.

Ever.

Obama needs to grow a set, vs. flying off to Martha's Vineyard.

Funny, this time his presidency, Bush had taken 235 vacation days, Clinton 139. If Obama had taken the entire 10 days, it would have totaled 70. But it's different with Obama. He's black.

Obama's black?

Means he's entitled to sit on the steps of his apartment building smoking pot, or taking up the bench at the bus stop harrassing hot bitches. Then he is entitled to go down to the Seventeen Mart and spend his EBT/WIC/SNAP card on flamin hot cheetoes, pepsi and ding dongs.

Seems to me that Obama is sort of sitting in a stagnant position, eager to make things better. He truly believes that his policies will work if/when he implements them. He really wants redistribution. He really uses a sort of hate speech against rich people. i heard people talking about it the other day; "Obama is trying to help us. He is trying to keep the money out of the hand of the rich people and give it all back to us" the speeches he gives are showing either what he believes in, or that he is crafty and trying to turn poor Americans against the rich in the country. The rich gave my wife a GREAT job. The rich use services my company provides.

there are too many regulations that make things hard on businesses. Even mandatory breaks. I have to allow my employees x breaks over y hours. NOT that i have a problem with giving breaks- in fact my employees are more than thankful for how i treat them. but it should not be up to the government to tell an employer how to run his business in such small fashions. Breaks are very minor part of business, and for the government to be in the smallest places of my business really bugs me. Here is the answer if your employer treats you bad: its not let government save you; its QUIT! find somewhere else to work then QUIT!

That's much closer to the truth than what we currently hear from the right, including many self-proclaimed Tea-party people/supporters.

They've kinda admitted it with their "Obama made it worse" meme, but that's still not the truth.

Bush and his cronies wrecked the economy so bad it will take a lot more than just Obama and/or 4 years to properly repair it.

This is why I can't and won't take tea-party people seriously. Not the ones who constantly put out the message that Obama made all things bad all of a sudden, which just happens to be just about all of them.

The right will always spin and twist and attempt to wiggle their way out of responsibility, just like they did when they absolutely abandoned Bush after staunchly supporting him for 7 years straight.

This isn't the party that Reagan would recognize, although it is the party that Reagan created.

Everyone knows that it was Federal Government policies directly related to the Clinton Administration is what got us into this mess. All were DEREGULATED during the Clinton years. Fannie/Freddie--including the Glass/Stegall banking act of the 1930's was thrown out of the window. Clinton's treasury secretary Robert Rubin and Allan Greenspan are both on record for apologizing for their mistakes in this.

And Barack Obama bought and paid for it with 868 BILLION borrowed and spent taxpayers dollars in an effort to fix it that FLOPPED.

Nancy Pelosi wrecked the economy and Obama is a clueless assclown.

There are problems that no president can fix, such as this one:

If it's okay for the government to do it, as the left insists, why is it bad for households?

 

[Mr.Nick]

Obama is doing what he intended to do 20 years ago and that is destroy the capitalist model.

Go read his fathers ideas on capitalism then go read Obama's book "dreams from my father."

The guy only wrote a book on how awful capitalism is - yet your shocked when capitalism fails you under him?

The guy is a straight up socialist and if I was one and was nefarious as he is I would be making the same moves he is - because he's destroying capitalism in the proper way.

Redistribute wealth from the private to the public sector, and to the labor unions.

What the fuck did you expect from a "community organizer" a capitalist???

Things aren't bad for the unions now are they? they're only bad for the non-unionized private sector.

Obama's plan to spend us into prosperity is not working.

Do any of my friends on the left know what the national deficit for the 1st 2Q's of 2011 would have been called during the Bush year's?

A NEW NATIONAL RECORD!!

And to my friends on the right, PLEASE quit saying that Barry Obama has not had any accomplishments. It's simply not true. In less that 4 years, he has managed to make George Walker Bush look like a wise, elder statesman. That, my friends, is a HELL of an accomplishment...

 

[The T]

No government of any nation has ever spent itself into prosperity while it at the same time seeking to diminish what makes it viable.

 

[The Rabbi]

The economy had bottomed out when Obama took office. The day he took office was the best day for the economy and it was downhill after that.
He took a minor recession and turned it into the longest period of economic decline since the 1970s.

At least the left is admitting Obama is a failure. That's some kind of progress, Iguess.

When he took office people said that America was heading for another depression. This is not a minor recession.

Link to anyone responsible who said that.

I feel so comfortable with a Chickenhawk, warmongering Community Organizer in charge.
He's doing such a wonderful job.
Is he back from vacation yet to announce his "jobs plan?"

Maybe we can look forward to some more of those "shovel ready" jobs the Puerto Ricans won't even touch.

If Obama can't do the job he should get out of the fucking way so someone can. Bush hurt the economy yes but Obama took it to a whole new level of bad. The Bush recession would have corrected itself in the first year of Obama's presidency if he just backed off, but now almost 3 years later Obama has caused another recession.

The best thing Obama could have done was walk into office and end TARP and the wars... Then sat on his hands and veto everything. He would be in a booming economy by now and the deficit would be a lot smaller. Oh and we wouldn't have been downgraded, thanks for that Obama.

The Stimulus is what kept us from a Depression (but only if you believe actual economists). TARP was, while unpopular, effective. The auto bailout saved the auto industry and countless jobs.

Everything he has tried to do has been blocked or watered down. He has faced more obstruction than any president in history. Never before has the opposing party's stated goal been to ensure the President's failure.

Bush had 8 years to destroy a pretty sound economy. Give this President more than 2 1/2 years to turn this monstrosity around.

No economist who doesn't get his paycheck from the Democratic Party says that. And over 200 signed their names to an ad that predicted the stimulus would fail when it was being proposed.
The auto bailout saved thousands of union jobs and cost the country a bundle. The auto industry in the US is healthy. Just ask Nissan, Honda, Mercedes, BMW, or VW, all of which have plants here.
How could everything he tried to do be blocked or watered down when the Dems did not need a single GOP vote for 2 years to pass anything they wanted?
Where did the GOP state that its goal was to "ensure" the president's failure.
Bush had 7 years of a prospering economy that reached the end of its cycle. Obama has extended the bottom of the economic cycle for 3 years and counting.

You really are pretty ignorant, arent you?

Don't be ridiculous.

Maybe we should keep Barry around for another EIGHT and a HALF years so he can "create" a few more 5 - 7 month jobs for the 2020 census???

Obama takes charge at hurricane command center - Yahoo! News

Oh thank GOD! We're saved and he's at least not micromanaging! So refreshing to see a president not make the same mistake as Carter.

Rick Perry would just sit around praying for God to straighten everything out.

I'd rather have that than our micromanager in chief fucking up the works over a non-crisis for a photo op.

he looks engaged though!!!!

 

[Meister]

It took both parties to get the economy where it is Marc.....yes, that means the democrats were part of the mess as were the republicans. Keep it real, dude.

Part..yeah..

I think it breaks like 70% - Republicans and 30% - Democrats.

And for Conservatives it breaks 99.99% Democrats - .0000000000000001% Independents.

Republicans? 0.0%

You just keep thinking that, Sallow. It just shows how you really are.

It must be very depressing knowing the only chance Obama has at re-election is if you convince enough Americans that this PILE OF FUCKING HORSE SHIT, is the truth.

Good luck with that.
