can obama blame his way to a second term ?

[signelect]

The really scary part of this is that we (both sides) blame the other but who will step up and tell the truth. My guess is no one. There is real good money being in politics and we seem to love to elect those who are for sale. I haven't see a true statesman for years and I go back a ways. Obama lies about amost every thing and doesn't know what to do about what the rest of the things but George W didn't have a clue either but he kept us safe.

It is like the story of the man in shark infested waters, George drove the boat around him and kept the sharks away but the man was drowning and George didn't have time to throw him a life vest. The man was safe from the sharks but drowned anyway. We are all drowning and Washington is unwilling to do the right things to save us.

[keee keee]

The question is is the country better off now since Obama was elected? I say NO!!!!!! Gas prices hitting $5.00 by summer, food prices rising, Middle east burning, rioting, record unemployment,Trillion of dollars of deficits, billions of stimulus funds unaccountable. Is this man child President deserving of another term I say NO!!!

 

[keee keee]

You can't blame Bush

no it isn't... the real question is the one i just asked, what you just did was a good example of glossing over, nice try.
failure...? you better take a look in your democrat mirror if you think your guy is a huge success, they did pass that great healthcare that everybody wanted.

No, YOU are wrong. You have to have some kind of policy and some kind of track record.

Two failed wars and a ruined economy are NOT a "track record". Obama always ran on a policy of "health reform". All you have to do is read the bill to know that it's a good thing and it could have been better only Republicans didn't want this president to fail. Like their's did.

You can't name a single Republican success. Not for at least the last 20 years. They either fail or they work to make others fail. That's not a good record.

Wait there buddy, I would like you to know that Michelle Bachmann has introduced the "lightbulb freedom of choice" act thank you very much.

The Commerce Department reported today (Friday) that the economy grew only 1.6 percent in the second quarter, which is a fancy way of saying what everyone on Main Street already knows. The economy has stalled. Unemployment is still in the stratosphere and shows no sign of improving. The housing market is worsening.

Why? What to do? The Republican story is simple. It’s the fault of government. They say Obama’s policies have bankrupted the nation and made businesses too uncertain to create jobs. The answer is less government. Cut taxes and spending, privatize, and deregulate.

It’s not a new story but it’s capturing the public’s mind because the Democrats offer no story to counter it with.

Obama and the Democrats respond by defending their specific policies. The stimulus worked, they say, as did the bailout of Wall Street, because the economy is better today than it would be without them. If anything, we need more stimulus. And healthcare reform will protect tens of millions.

A large and growing segment of the public believes none of this. The public doesn’t think in terms of specific policies. All it knows is the economy has stalled and there’s only one story that explains why and points the way forward – and that’s the Republican’s.

What should the Democratic story be? How can they connect the dots?

Here’s a clue. In times of economic stress, Americans lose faith in the nation’s large institutions. They blame either government or its counterpart in the private sector – big business and Wall Street.

Twenty years ago, 42 percent of Americans said they trusted government to do what was right just about always or most of the time. Now, only 25 percent do. Twenty years ago 26 percent they had a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in big business; now, only 16 percent do. And almost no one trusts Wall Street. The drop in trust toward all major institutions has been most precipitous since the start of 2008.

The underlying political debate in America is which of these is most responsible for the mess we’re in, and which can be most trusted to get us out of it – big business and Wall Street, or government.

It wouldn’t be hard for Democrats to make the case that big business and Wall Street blew it. The Street’s wild speculation took the economy off the cliff, caused the stock market to crash (and millions of 401(k)s along with it), and created a housing bubble whose burst has hurt millions more.

Big business has used the Great Recession as an opportunity to slash payrolls and cut wages and is now sitting on a $1.8 trillion mountain of cash it refuses to use to create new jobs. Instead, it’s using the cash to build more factories abroad, buy back its own shares of stock, invest in more labor-replacing technologies at home, and do mergers that will lead to even fewer jobs.

Meanwhile, a parade of “public-be-damned” actions have threatened small investors (Goldman Sachs’s double dealing), individuals trying to buy health insurance (WellPoint’s double-digit premium increases), worker safety (the Massey mine disaster), the environment (BP), and even our food (Jack DeCoster’s commercial egg operations).

And a gusher of corporate and Wall Street money has flooded Washington, exemplified by Big Pharma and the health-insurance lobby fighting heatlhcare reform, and Wall Street’s minions fighting off stricter financial reform.

If Obama and the Democrats would connect these dots they’d have a story that would make Americans’ hair stand on end. We’re in this mess because of big business and Wall Street. Government is needed to get us out of it.

It’s not that big business and Wall Street are evil. It’s that they’re out to make as much money as possible – which is what they’re set up to do. That’s why we need an activist government to stimulate the economy, create jobs, and protect the public from their excesses.

So why haven’t Obama and the Dems succeeded yet? Big business and Wall Street have used their money and political clout to stop government from doing as much as needs to be done.

The story is clear, and it has the virtue of being the truth. Why won’t Obama and the Democrats tell it? Is it because big business and Wall Street have the money and political clout even to prevent the story from being told?

If a Republican were like Obama the media would be laughing and mocking him at this point and asking if he's ever responsible for anything he does

Awwwww, C'MON!!!!

You're making things sound as bad as the Bush Years.....​

January 13, 2008​

"The recession-deniers were muzzled by a horrendous last two weeks of December, and the gloom-and-doomers are now out in force. Their key arguments:

* Plummeting housing will now drag down the rest of the economy.

*The "bad debt" problem is not just "sub-prime" folks who should never have have taken out mortgages in the first place. It includes credit card debt, "high quality" mortgages, car loans, and other leverage that have recently become a consumer way of life.

*Pressure on consumers is leading to a reduction in consumer spending (70% of economy), which, in turn, will lead to a reduction in spending by companies that sell stuff to consumers.

*The question now is not "will there be a recession?" but "how bad will it get?"

*The most optimistic forecasts in a NYT gloom-and-doom round-up are for three crappy quarters, regardless of what the Fed does. Less optimistic forecasts suggest that we are, well, screwed.

After blowing the last downturn, we've been worried this one since last summer (see below). We also suspect that, given the importance of housing to the economy and debt to consumer spending, the recession will be deeper and more prolonged than people think."

This is what you people do.

You scream bloody murder and blame everyone else but your selves.

Then you turn arround and scream bloody murder when anyone blames you for what you caused.

Just like how all of the sudden Beck thinks he shouldnt have called Obama a racist over and over again because he wants to pretend he is the rightful owner of the MLK podium.

You scream bloody murder and blame everyone else but your selves.

There hasn't been a President in our history that loved the attention of the press more then Barack Hussein Obama.He had more appearances in his first two year then any President before him and that's saying something.Furthermore at just about every event when a speech was given He blamed President Bush in some way,shape or form.If anyone denies that they are being dishonest.

Shaman,
Why are your replies and posts always formatted like an autistic kid found a box of crayola crayons? Why is posting like a normal semi-intelligent person so challenging for you? Are you trying to be "unique"? If that's the case, you are succeeding, but you are unique in your level of stupidity and nothing more. Just a friendly public service announcement from yours truly.

Republicans invented blaming the other guy.

They blamed 9/11 on Clinton, despite being warned of a likely attack on NYC skyscrapers. The intelligence community -- lead by Richard Clarke -- begged the Bush administration to take the threat seriously. Had they taken it seriously, had they put planes on high alert - scramble ready, they could have intercepted the 2nd plane that hit the towers. They were warned and did nothing.

They ignored Richard Clarke, -- the terrorism czar first hired by Reagan -- because he was too obsessed with Bin Laden and Islamic Terrorism.

They blamed the Housing Meltdown on Jimmy Carter and his 1977 Community Reinvestment Act.

But ... Bush had his hands all over this mess. (...and never accepted an ounce of blame)
