U.S. President Barack Obama touted Friday that the U.S. economy is moving in the right direction, though progress has been "painfully slow," while blaming Republicans for the current tough economic conditions. "The policies that we have out in place have moved us in the right direction, and the policies that the Republicans are offering right now are the exact policies that got us into this mess," Obama told a press conference at the White House.
Obama appears confident about a victory for Democrats in the November midterm election, if the economic issues dominate the election campaign.
"If the election is about the policies that are going to move us forward versus the policies that will get us back into a mess, then I think the Democrats will do very well," he said.
Highlighting difference with Republicans, he vowed to push for permanent tax breaks for middle-class families and small businesses and take steps to boost domestic investment.
"I'm prepared to work on a bill and sign a bill this month that would ensure that middle-class families get tax relief," Obama said.
Noting that policies adopted by Republicans cut taxes for millionaires and cut regulations for corporations for special interests, Obama said such policies led to a recent financial crisis and a recession that "we're still digging out of today."
LEAD: Obama says economic recovery 'painfully slow,' blames Republicans+
I mean this is INFANTILE! Rush Limbaugh calls him the "man child" with accuracy.
Can you IMAGINE Bush in 2002, after Republicans have controlled the Congress for four years, and he has been president for nearly two, BLAMING DEMOCRATS for any finacial mess?
I would LOVE to have some liberal find that quote. Don't bother, it doesn't exist.
For Obama, after Democrats have controlled Congress for four years, and he has controlled the presidency for two, to blame Republicans for this financial disaster is akin to a two year old blaming the dog for messing his pants! It's INFANTILE!
But here is something else I find HILARIOUSLY HYPOCRITICAL AND FUNNY. Okay, all eight years of the Bush presidency it's TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH, TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH, TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH!
BUT, now they talk about EXTENDING THE "MIDDLE CLASS TAX CUTS" (which is what Obama means he has NO INTENTION of cutting taxes further on top of the Bush tax cut).
Now HOW can they EXTEND a middle class tax cut, IF IT NEVER EXISTED?????????
I thought the tax cuts WERE ONLY FOR THE RICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But, Obama wants to end the tax cuts for the rich, AND EXTEND THE MIDDLE CLASS TAX CUT?????????
How can you extend something that YOU GUYS CLAIM NEVER EXISTED?????????
So, now Democrats and Obama ARE TACITLY ADMITTING those tax cuts WEREN'T JUST FOR THE RICH, at the same time, they still blare the same trite old talking point of "TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH!"
It's hilariously funny AND HYPOCRITICAL. You can't extend what never existed liberals.
So which it it???????? Are the tax cuts ONLY for the rich OR were they for the MIDDLE CLASS TOO???????
You can't have it both ways.
But, it will be ABSOLUTELY NO SURPRISE, if liberals will try to spin and double talk their way into convincing themselves that Obama and the Democrats haven't let the cat out of the bag on tax cuts.
I predict there will be two responses, the cowards will keep quiet and not address this, the too stupid for that, will just sputter and attack. NONE OF THEM WILL ADDRESS THE ACTUAL SUBJECT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T.
Grab some popcorn and watch the fun!
