Greenhouse gases overpowering natural cooling

[Old Rocks]

Code, old fellow, nine months of President Obama's administration is not going to make up for eight years of braindead incompetance. If President Obama's policies get the employment numbers into positive territory by the coming summer, he will have done well, cosidering the disaster he inherited from the previous administration.

You still don't get it Old Rocks....next summer if things aren't better, your still going to make excuses for Obama. Let's just clear the air on that right now.

Obama not using the Stimulus money as he should, is adding to the effect, and isn't helping. We are coming out of the recession, and Obama will get credit it for it, as all the other presidents who have been in power at the time of an ending recession. But, recessions are natural occurring events in our economy, just as they will end.

Just for the record, Old Rocks, Obama is pretty much following the same path as the "braindead, incompetant" Bush. Still 2 wars being fought, having the same timeline withdrawal in Iraq as Bush....Homeland Security alive and well in the US. Yeah changes, and hope.

Thanks for saving me the effort.

One other point: When the contol of both houses of Congress shifted into the hands of the Dems in February 2007, the unemployment rate was about 4.5%.

From that point to the Presidential election, it glided upward and then, when Obama won, it shot up like an Iranian rocket headed toward Isreal.

Isn't it fun linking one unrelated item to another as Rocks does?

Just to get back to reality, with no stimulus of any type, the economy would have bounced back to expansion within 12 to 18 months. By sucking every last dollar out of the economy that he could to pay off his cronies, Obama has successfully terrified every person in the country who like the idea of eating tomorrow.

How 'bout that Olympics coming to Chicago? I thought the world loved us (U.S.) because of the Big O. Maybe the IOC didn't get the memo.

Pressure is mounting on Congress to fast-track Barack Obama's stimulus package for the US economy after the loss of more than 500,000 jobs in December capped the worst year for the labour market since the second world war.

Responding to news that the world's biggest economy shed 1.1m jobs in the last two months of 2008 alone, the president-elect said it was "a stark reminder" of the need for Capitol Hill to pass measures to boost growth.

"Clearly the situation is dire. It is deteriorating and it demands urgent and immediate action," Obama said, following a report from the labour department showing employers cut non-farm payrolls by 524,000 in December. With November's job shedding revised up to 584,000, economists said there was a risk that the US could be facing its toughest challenge since the 1930s. Obama said he was making good progress in talks with Congress on the stimulus package, which is expected to total $800bn (£500bn) or more, about 5% of GDP.

The labour department said the jobless rate jumped to 7.2%, the highest level since 1993, from 6.8% in November. Economists said, however, that the official data underestimated the job crisis in the US.

Code, do you just pull numbers out of your ass, or are you a purposeful liar? It has to be one or the other as you can see, the unemployment level as of 9Jan09 was 7.2%

I see. The election of a very slim majority of Dems was supposed to have caused the debacle, rather than the six years of incompetance in the House, Senate, and Executive? You people have two failed wars, and an economic debacle to answer for, you cannot shift the accountability that easily.
