Obama's Fault?

Republicans want to see Obama fail. They don't want to cooperate on anything with democrats. So bah humbug to the republicans. Obama needs to become more partisan to increase majorities in a democratic congress. Republicans don't have a chance in 2012 when the truth is told.

Bush was not a conservative. He was just right center, not much better than McCain. Though RINO republicans helped get the spending started, when the Democrats took over congress in 2006 Bush began to spend like the liberal he was at heart. Without a Republican controlled congress he was free to allow his social liberal tendencies to shine.

It was that economic ignorance of foolhardy spending along with the Fanny Mae/ Freddy Mac fiasco which took us down a road of destruction. Instead of reversing the ignorance, Obama, being the far left liberal that he is, more than quadrupled Bush's spending! His policies involve the spending of more of our money than all presidents before him from Washington till now combined.

In an attempt to keep this in perspective: Consider a stack of $1000 bills. Bush spent a stack about 3' tall. Obama has spent a stack 332,640' tall! That's 63 MILES people!!!

Obama is a globalist who does not have our nation's best interests at heart. I am ashamed of our current president. He is the most divisive president ever to sit in the sacred oval office. Hopefully, we are not too late and can begin to reverse the ignorance come November. Obama's policies must fail in order for the country to succeed.

Democrats violate business and cultural values.

Steal from the rich and give to the poor? Nope.
Fund abortions? Never!!
Socialize medicine? Rationing? No way!!

Carbon taxes? Not in our lifetime

Dems want to destroy america and freedom

suggested reading 1008 page general econ textbook.

Microeconomic Theory by Mas-Colell, Whinston, and Green

Try to read the book and it will help you get rid of some of the liberal notions that ruin our economy.

You may be missing on stimulus money he sent to the kin folk that have gone to their reward. They have been busy printing checks.

Even though the unemployment rate remained flat at 9.6 percent in September, the labor market would now need to add a total of about 11.5 million jobs to restore the pre-recession rate, according to analysis from Heidi Shierholz, an economist with the Economic Policy Institute

Obama needs to get the message
