Stock markets up, unemployment is down, ya gotta admit it's gettin' better...

[Eric Cartman]

Please tell me what Obama did to actually facilitate any economic improvement... and show your work

I was really hoping you could explain why his policies didn't send us over the brink as was widely predicted... by right wing pundits and economists.

Nice to see the echol chamber dancing the Henny Penny Polka. As a group they rely on emoticons and glib comments, cartoons and sarcasm, cherry picked facts and stats without context to 'prove' everything bad is because of THEM (Democrats, liberals, progressives, Fabian Socialists, unions, Acorn, the poor, Obama, Pelosi, etc.). As long as the echol chamber claims the sky is falling we can be sure of two things: The fringe Republcans are not in power, and the economy is improving.

 

[Eric Cartman]

I would hardly call 9% unemploment,skyrockting gas prices and food prices going through the roof an improvement.
Oh and inflation is coming next. In fact it's already started.
And as long as gov spending continues I dont see any real changes coming.
Public confidence is way down.

Never in our history have we had so many people trying to lower public confidence... at least not inside our own borders.

ManCow opinion video...

Again... with facts, citations of the actual policy workings that have directly led to the alleged improvement... please show where Obama directly led to this conclusion of yours...

Idiot fluff linking troll

Were you in a coma from 2001 through 2008?

Ehhhh... wrong answer... you made a specific claim... and try and back it off by trying to make others prove hearsay...

Put up or shut up, winger

So, none of that's true?

Gas and food prices aren't shooting through the roof?

The housing market isn't still depressed?

Printing up a trillion dollars with no corresponding increase in productivity won't cause massive inflation?

Public confidence isn't near or at an all-time low?

Inquiring minds want to know.

 

[rightwinger]

The stock market is going up mostly because zillions of dollars are being pumped into the system...An increase in the raw numbers without an increase in buying power.

How are your fuel and food prices looking these days?

I thought jobs were the only thing that mattered

Moving the goal posts so soon?

When have I ever said that?

Every time economic good news was posted

 

[Oddball]

I defy you to find one instance of that happening.

 

[Eric Cartman]

Oh really... things are getting better? Can you explain just how that is by this please... U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time

Hint... check out the title of the thread.

That debt clock wouldn't be running so fast if:

1 The deregulated financial markets didn't send us into the worst...blah, blah.

2. Tarp and the stimulus weren't needed because of #1

3. Our benevolent corporate benefactors are continuing the trend to lay off workers quicker and hire them back slower during economic turn downs (also see #1)

4. and I know you don't want to hear this again but it did double under that last administration.

Wow...Talk about regurgitating talking points from the echo chamber!

 

[signelect]

the public is actually just as stupid as the president and congress think we are.

1. National debt out of sight (source public numbers)
2. gas up 40% ( filling station)
3. Crude up 300% (stock market)
4. food at grocery store up 20% (source is my pocket book)
5. Unemployment down .2% (how many have quit looking)
6. Medicare cut to the point where doctors won't accept it.

You lefty's are right, Obama has done a great job

After listening to Beck for the last couple of years I was scared to peak my head out of the shelter... but when I finally did, things are looking up.

I would hardly call 9% unemploment,skyrockting gas prices and food prices going through the roof an improvement.

Yeah.....​

.....49% is a reeeaaal back-breaker!!​

Yes you are correct. This is the main thing about the repubs that discusted me.
But it took 8 years for Bush and congress, poth parties, to raise it as much as they did.
I believe Obama and the current congress, both parties again though mostly dems this time, will eclipse that in less than 4 years.

"through the roof?" I don't agree with that characterization.

The housing market needed a major correction.

We will have some inflation ( we normally do) but I don't see the hyperinflation that has been predicted.

Public confidence is a lagging indicator that has probably been effected by certain elements of the media.

Just keep printing money and the inflation will remain low. Stop printing money and watch what happens. See how this works?

I only know what I see at the gas pump, grocery store and housing market and none of it is good and it started shortly after our president took office and started spending. I want an American to be president. I am not disputing his birth place just his attitude toward what made our country great.

Too much of his life has involved hating America, not loving it. Check out the people he hung with in his early years. Thanks a lot to all of you who voted for him.

 

[Eric Cartman]

I guess the most effective talking points would be the truth.

I know a lot of what I say could be inaccurate because I mostly watch Fox and listen to talk radio (really).

Gas is down from the 2008 highs and if you want to be honest, we all know that the turmoil in the middle east is having a effect.

Housing is down because the bubble burst... that had to happen.

Maybe if food prices continue to rise then Americans might not be so damn fat? That would probable help on the health care costs too. (silver lining)
