How are we doing now

Well looks like a lot of things went on last week, starting with the "Cash for Clunkers Program" OOOPS they ran out of money in only one week, another great forecast for the Administration. Then I understand that only 7 people have signed the pledge going around congress to read the 1000 page + health care bill, they must really be busy over the August break, not to worry though it is only the most major thing these morons have to deal with for the long term care of our citizens, no sense in thinking we should get it right. Let us not forget that 85% of the people are currently covered, and that 70% of the American people oppose this bill, but what the hell what does the American public have to say or offer when it comes to their future. Then King Harry Reed comes out in all his glory and says that the media were the ones to set the August deadline on getting this bill passed...guess he and the big O don't communicate very well, or he was sleeping in those meetings or he is just a complete dip...I will go with the latter. Then on the job market everyone was really thrilled that we ONLY lost 500K+ jobs in the last report...break out the champagne for that one...lets be sure we all understand that there will be very little replacement of jobs when the economy turns around...WHY...you ask...well because companies big and small are getting more efficient in what they do, and as a result when the market comes back they will not have to hire nearly as many people...but that is no big deal...after all in Oregon last week they put on a bunch of people due to the stimulus package to work...what they forgot to tell you all those jobs lasted 35 hours so now they are back on the unemployment dole...And just to get this week started Tim the Tax Cheap told the middle class Americans...bend over that kitchen table baby because you are going to get tax increases...YIKES didn't the big O say that would not happen....WAKE THE F UP AMERICA WE ARE GETTING HOOD WINKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your last point will now be the true test. Many people were willing to sign on because they thought they were getting something for nothing and only the wicked nobility that makes over $350,000 per year would be required to sacrifice anything. Now that Timmy the tax cheat is telling the people that their taxes will rise while their wages appear to be static the populatity of the Obamamessiah will continue to plummet. Lets see how long it takes the rats to jump from the good ship Obamapop when his popularity soars below 45% and his strongly disapproves outweigh his strongly approves by 15%.

Obama is already turning the Bush economy around. Q1 -6 GDP, Q2 -1 GDP. I can't wait for Q3.

Look what we can do when the Republicans are in the wilderness. Long Live the Democratic Monopoly!

Hey Baxter let me ask you a question...what color is the sky in your world. If you think this economy has started to turn around because of O you are nuts...have you not looked at the debt this guy has racked up and is going to add to, taxing everything that moves is not the solution it will ruin this country...just wait and see what happens

I find it so amazing how the cheerleading left wing media is trying to make everything sound so rosy now that the Great Obamamessiah is in power to save all of us.
GDP is still negative. Construction is still conracting.
Unemployment continues to rise.
The deficit continues to grow as it nears 2 trillion,
Yet they try to spin this as good news.
If it is true that they only spent like 67 billion of the 787 stimulus plan and the economy is rebounding all by itself than can we get back the remainder of the 787 that has not been spent?
How can you give any credit to this administration when by their own excuses they have stated that they have hardly spent any of the stimulus money?
C'mon Rich, please tell us the truth. What do you think will happen to any recovery if they pass this health care disaster? The market has been rallying because investors believe it will not happen. There is no way to pay for it since it is nowhere near revenue neutral so what do you think will happen when they try to slide all of the new taxes through after reiterating that they will not raise taxes on the middle class?

The "Left Wing Media" concept is a lie. The MSM is corporate. It only appears let leaning from the lunatic fringe.

Reigel and Mark - this administration and Congress is a tremendous and marked improvement over Bush/GOP Congress combo. Do you remember 2008? The supply side, Laissez Faire policies '01-'08 were a disaster.

Well - the adults are now in charge and Wall Street approves. So do I.

Remind me - what did the Dow do under WJC? How 'bout Dubya? How about Obama? 'Nuff said.
