11/6: How Many More Jobs Will Obama Kill?

Unemployment has hit 10.2 percent, the highest level since the 1983 recession. Obama administration officials will no doubt try to spin this latest bad economic news by noting that unemployment is typically a “lagging indicator.” That was true in the old days, but it won’t cut it in the age of the global economy and Internet-driven 24/7 news cycle. Unemployment may now be something of a leading indicator because business executives make decisions about whether to invest in new jobs much more quickly and based on vastly more data.

    If you have an open mind on the subject, and a little smarter than your average bear, read an alternative view:

    Between Obamacare and Cap & Tax this administration is killing the US economy. I am involved in the aviation business and when the energy tax hits, we are toast! Why can’t we use the liberal tactic of stopping these unconstitutional programs with the judicial system?

    • Vettenut says:

      Because unfortunately, the judicial system is stacked with liberal judges. The libs figured that out a long time ago and Bush let them get away with not filling many federal judgeships for 8 years. We should do the same to Obama, if we can.

    The American People really need to have a refresher course in propaganda recognition and be able to base their opinions on facts rather than propaganda being fed to them by the spoonful. They need to recognize the difference between those who are ‘leading them down the path’ versus those who are just trying to warn them that ‘the bridge is out up ahead’…really.

    We have not yet seen the worst of the unemployment that can be created by big government. They mean well, but we should all know where that path leads. ‘Crazy Nancy’ Pelosi and ‘Batty Barbara’ Boxer will push their job-killing ‘Unhealthy Employment’ Bill and ‘Tax, Cap, No Trade Energy’ Bill through Cogress only to have millions of small businesses that cannot afford the new taxes to go broke. Anyone who takes a back seat to ‘Cray Nancy’ and ‘Batty Barbara’ on their ride to infamy will find themselves sailing off into space. Their new nicknames will be ‘Thelma and Louise’ when everyone realizes who were responsible in sending America’s economy off a cliff.
    Watch and see…

      But this is the Cloward and Piven strategy . . . destroy the US dollar and the economy . . . to be saved by the great government teat! Every socialistic government has done the sae thing . . . drive the people to the brink of destruction to welcome in a new and everlasting savior . . . the god of Statism and social justice!

    • Vettenut says:

      They DON’T mean well! as gadiantonhunter says, this is Cloward/Piven. They are trying to break the system so they can replace it.
      The snakes all came out last night and voted in socialized medicine in the middle of the night. God help us!!!

    I don’t think you can put the blame on any one of our recent presidents, but rather put the blame on the seats of Congress where it belongs. It is time to STOP talking about the blame, and start talking about replacing every single representative in DC.

  5. jcs says:

    One week ago Fox news did a poll asking which president is “more responsible for the current state of the economy,” only 18 percent say President Obama. Fifty-eight percent say former President George W. Bush. Nine percent blame both of them. Republicans are the only subgroup of voters who blame Obama, and only by a six-point margin of 35 percent to 29 percent.
