Obama Insults: Blames Bad Economy On Americans Ability To 'Think Clearly'

[USArmyRetired]

How unAmerican is this guy. This is so arrogant on Obama’s part. American citizens must not allow Obama and his so-called "progressives" to attribute the motive of "anger" to the great passion for liberty which is being felt and expressed today. The Democrats call it "anger," but "anger" doesn't adequately describe the emotion that is being expressed by the patriotic American citizens who are a part of the Taxed Enough Already movement in 2010. No, "anger" more aptly describes Obama and his fellow Democrats who react to every criticism of the abusive and intrusive policies they have coercively imposed on citizens by "fighting" back with attempts to belittle and demean those who disagree with them.


Obama Blames The Bad Economy On Americans Inability To “Think Clearly”

WEST NEWTON, Mass. - President Barack Obama said Americans' "fear and frustration" is to blame for an intense midterm election cycle that threatens to derail the Democratic agenda.
"Part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time is because we're hardwired not to always think clearly when we're scared,” Obama said Saturday evening in remarks at a small Democratic fundraiser Saturday evening. “And the country's scared.”

Obama told the several dozen donors that he was offering them his “view from the Oval Office.” He faulted the economic downturn for Americans’ inability to “think clearly” and said the burden is on Democrats “to break through the fear and the frustration people are feeling.”

What a pompous ass.

 

[uscitizen]

That seems to be an accurate statement.

Revere's and Obamas as well.

 

[Sallow]

What Obama said is clearly the opposite of the OP. Cause and effect escapes a good amount of American minds.

Alot of people in this country really dig flag wavers and cross holders as opposed to cold hard facts.

 

[ClosedCaption]

You get offended really easily, why so defensive?

 

[Sherry]

"Fear and frustration" is what got him elected, and more of the same is what will get him booted.

 

[Revere]

Ah, the old, "he didn't mean what he said," or "he didn't say what he meant."

Those with government jobs seem to be immune to the economic fallout the rest of us are dealing with. Our opinions are not rooted in 'fear', but the reality of paying bills and raising families. We are not ignorant, though it seems like many liberals, that's the best excuse they can come up with for those that disagree with their opinions.

Now practically speaking, how insulting the electorate is going to result in more votes for his programs, that I'm baffled by.

For eight years Bush and his cowboy PNAC'ers lobbed programs and actions on to the American public..as well as gifting his "base"..with riches. He sold that as being cheap..and/or free.

Now that the check has come..you guys don't want to pay.

Extraordinary.

What is extraordinary is your failure to stop with the blame Bush rhetoric. It's not working anymore.

Maybe Obama hasn't got the message yet... he's no longer a God.. floating above us..

Huh? Notice how job growth has been negative the past few months, despite the fact that private sector hiring was in the black in each of those months? That's because government employees are being laid off, in excess of the new hiring in the private sector.

Yah, damn census only comes every 10 years.

Only if you count state and local workers canned because the Federal government bailouts ran out, and census workers.

The Federal government never stops growing.

The "facts" are that the economy is experiencing the weakest recovery ever. We still have a 9.6% unemployment rate and people are losing their homes in record numbers.
The problem is not that people aren't thinking clearly. It is that they are thinking all too clearly. It is Obama who isn't thinking clearly.

yep, those that disagree are anti-science fools, that are cowering in the corners. Those that support him are the dumb minorities that won't get out and vote. He wonders why they are going to lose?

Hi Retired:

How unAmerican is this guy. This is so arrogant on Obama’s part.

Barry is a Kenyan-born immigrant to Indonesia (link), so he is not going to act like a real American ...

American citizens must not allow Obama and his so-called "progressives" to attribute the motive of "anger" to the great passion for liberty which is being felt and expressed today. The Democrats call it "anger" ...

Obama Blames The Bad Economy On Americans Inability To “Think Clearly”

The bad economy is going to implode because:

1. Too much NAFTA Offshoring of the Manufacturing Base.
2. Too many Guest Worker Programs (23) that bring in far too many Foreign Nationals that displace US Workers.
3. Too many Illegal Alien Foreign Nationals (20 to 30 MILLION) that Obama wants to give citizenship.
4. Way too much Job Outsourcing to everywhere else on earth.
5. These things add up to 'Worker Displacement,' which destroys the local Consumer Base and the Tax Base.

We are still looking at record foreclosures and bankruptcies, because Obama's Plan to destroy America is working ...

GL,

Terral

"Obama's" Plan? What we are seeing now is the fruits of the Milton Friedman economics embraced by Bush.

Conservatives absolutely abhor the common folk. They also think riches will come to them as part of some sort of cosmic lottery.

Well when reality hits the fan..this is what happens.

And it isn't pretty. What conservatives are failing to do..is own it and move on.

Well you clearly got the Democrat Talking points letter

What was unemployment that last time Republicans controlled anything in Congress?

How much has Obama added to the Debt on spending he claims he had to do?
