Not a fuckin' thing.

"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."
He ended the partisanship in DC. He also enforced a completely transparent process. Oh and let's not forget he gave everyone thousands of dollars for their old turd cars. And he had beers with really important people when they couldn't get along. Also he helped Israel negotiate with those pesky terrorists.
So much more but I'm too busy to keep typing!
Obama has been a terrible president.
Cast my first vote for Nixon in 1972 .
Are you better off than you were 4 years ago?
I don't think I am....but I also think I could be much worse off than I am now.
Looks like we found the Democrats re-election strategy: We know the economy is in shambles and we haven't done anything to fix it, but just 'imagine' it could of been twice as bad if Republicans we're in charge - there would be no middle class, the elderly would be wheeled out of hospitals and dumped in the cold streets, all latinos would be rounded up and put in concentration camps, and the CEOs of oil companies would run the country.
Wake up...yer dreamin'!

He's something else, too. Starts with "in" and ends in "competent".Wake up...yer dreamin'!

He had none, just as Obama won't.Do you discount that Bush earned a 2nd term by simply being Bush? Where was his Primary challenge?
I don't care if you are disgusted with the President but shit...at least try to be fair. I mean...you owe that to yourself if nobody else.
Say what you want about the President and I can say plenty myself but the winning position isn't one where the Defense Department gets a blank check every year and nearly every other program has to fight for table scraps. I think Obama understands that; I don't think any of the GOP candidates do outside of Paul who (I'm told) has no chance.
