‘Mr. President, This Is Your Holy S*** Moment’

Oh wait I just read the article: “It’s worse than we thought.”
Didn’t Ron Paul, Peter Schiff, Gerald Celente, Marc Faber, Nouriel Roubini, etc. already tell us how bad it is going to be? It is going to be horrific because we have squandered our wealth. Summers has been part of the problem. Nice to see Obama turned to him.

why don’t you people who voted that wimp obama in office, impeach him for being a whimp and inexperienced. no wonder the country is going into the toilet. he is not PRESIDENT MATERIAL

Obama ranges from clueless to corrupt—counting on him to save us is like counting on robber to save our house from being robbed. Not going to happen. Jail time for politicians.

The only thing Holy S*** would be if the neo-whiners shut up for a minute. Blame Obama, Blame Obama, that’s all anyone hears today from the neo-cons, well how about BLAME BUSH, BLAME BUSH and the GOP, they’re the ones that put us here.

how about BLAME BUSH, BLAME BUSH and the GOP, they’re the ones that put us here. JR >>> Democrats have used that excuse up. That dog dont hunt. Democrats got their 787BILLION on one condition that it would FIX the economy and stop unemployment from going over 8% WELL FAILURE is not tatooed ALL OVER that one isnt it. So YEAH since this is mortgaging our childrens children I DO BLAME the PEOPLE ASKING FOR SOMETHING that DID NOT WORK. Its called responsibility. Ask the people out of work or being kicked out of their house how they FEEL about it. FAILURE and HE GOES AROUND and WANTS MORE $$$ for MORE STUFF! HOW DARE HE. HIS TRACK RECORD IS LOOSER.

The Democratic part is nothing but a bunch of clowns.

Mr Obama may just have to say “sorry I erred.” This time next year unemployment will be worse, 13% and no signs of abating.

“no signs of abating”—–????????? No signs of abating???? For who? For anyone who is looking at actual data there is EVERY sign that layoffs are abating and that rehiring will begin thereafter. Plot the trend. Go to Forbes.com for the numbers.

Obama took an economy that was in complete free fall, traveling a million miles and hour toward the middle ages where the entire banking system would be dead in 30 days and unemployment would hit 60% and the entire economic system would collapse, our dollar would be kindling and we would be thrown back into the middles ages of bartering and fending for our food, and he put on the breaks. The speed to which we were traveling toward the bottom was SO FAST, and had so much steam, to the tune of over 600,000 layoffs PER MONTH, the brakes will take a while to completely stop us (We are down to 12,00 per month) but be rest assured, the breaks ARE on, and once we have stopped, if we havne’t already, we will start to level off and then, go up. But if you’re upset wth how far we’ve falled and with such force we fell, do take note, it was 8 years of republican leadershp that drove us right over the cliff and even while we were already pushed, NOT ONE republican was aware we had gone over. NOT ONE!!!! Bush said teh fundamentals of the economy was sound, so did McCain. NOBODY understood what had even happened except Obama. fact.

jon, by all means, let’s call it what it is. When Bush was in office and the ‘fundamentals of the economy were sound” we had over 600,000 laid off PER MONTH. We now have 12,000 laid off last month. THAT’s what it is!!!!! Go to Forbes.com and get the freakn numbers yourself. Forbes, a republican, remember????? that conservative enough for you??? and EVERY president has had advisors. Only this mental midget cons calls advisors ‘czars’. NEver have we had such misinformed mental midgets who do not even LOOK AT THE NUMBERS before you complain!!!! Would you RATHER we have 600,000 laid off per month???? THen by all means, vote republican, becuase THAT is what you get with them. OBama has stopped the free fall. Obama was the ONLY ONE who even knew we went over the cliff. “THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE ECONOMY ARE SOUND”…. same month we had 600,000 laid off. And, let’s call it what it is, when you have 200,000 laid off and previously you had 600,000 laid off per month, that IS 2/3 LESS people getting laid off. yes, that is an improvement, but too bad you missed the fact that this past month we had 12,000 laid off, only a factor of 10 off, but hey, don’t let a few facts get in the way of your rant. Goodness knows republicans like their ‘fact-free zones” when they complain.

I love the tea party morons. When was the last time we had 10% unemployment and a president decided the fix was to cut spending and decrease the debt????? HEBERT HOOVER!!! And what was the result????? 10% unemployment went to 25% unemployment, but hey, then republicans were kicked out of office and never returned for over 12 years. maybe that’s why cons want to cut the deficit in the middle of 10% unemployment. Let the country go to hell, who cares for them, all they care about is getting back power nad if killing our economy even more is how to get there, they dont care. My Lord, will be ever be able to trust these people again????? I never had mistrust for a political party before, but I sure have it now. I will never vote a republican in power after seeing how horrifically bad they have behaved since Obama has been in office nad how they will just eat their young to get power back. Truly despicable behavior.

how about some facts: Excuse me, but we had 300,000 people laid off last month. You couldn’t possibly have gotten a number of 12,000 from Forbes.
The problem here is “Obama did this” and “Bush did this” isn’t cutting it for argument’s sake. We’ve had Presidents since 1789 – 42 of them BEFORE Obama and Bush. Has anyone been around long enough to remember any President before Clinton? If not, don’t talk about “trends” on which party does what to whom. We’ve had bad and good presidents fro both parties (mostly bad).
The last President I remember that anyone liked was John Kennedy. Most people couldn’t wait to re-elect someone new.

its not up to obama to fix anything
congress runs the country
obama is a puppet

Obama’s economic advisors are idiots. With all the stimulus money that was made available to them, they could have had businesses moving the economy by now. A little creativity would be great. However, socialism doesn’t permit that. This will go down as the worst administration in terms of high unemployment….but four years into his presidency he’ll still be blaiming the Bush Administration….how convenient! Grow up and lead this country. That’s what you were elected to do.

This is all a culmination of 100 Years of Progressive Policies.
If you want someone to Blame, Look in the Mirror, the American People have been asleep to the Progressive take over if this country far too long.
Bush was a Progressive, Obama is just like Bush but x10.
Stop playing the Partisan game and look at what is the Real Problem. Progressives…

Didn’t you hear Obama say this would take time and be a tough road? Be patient and focus on your personal economy. All the criticism in the world won’t get you a job, or put a dollar in your pocket!

Hmm… the memo was dated December 16, 2008. Just a reminder that Bush was in office.
Peter Schiff? Give me a break. The guy is a huge egomaniac and this meltdown was known to be coming by millions of people.
Lastly, how about that recession? It’s over… now are you going to thank Obama for that. That was unimaginable at the beginning of the year.

At a minimum, Obama and his administration has kept this country from going over a cliff. He doesn’t have “czars”. That’s a term coined by the media a very long time ago, under other administrations (Republican to be accurate). Obama’s team put the brakes on, but it will take a while to recover the jobs lost. We Dems. know how much you Rethugs want him to fail, but don’t try too hard to make it look like he has, because he hasn’t. Things will turn around, much to your chagrin, I am sure, since you want him to fail even at the risk of our Country doing the same. Your leader Rush demands it!!! Don’t go against Rush!!! Sad bunch of haters you are. Truly sad!

Look at conservatives complaining about Obama`s policies not working. They definitely live on a different planet.
When Obama took over, more than 700,000 jobs were being lost every month. Now its 200,000. Not good but a good improvement.
The stock market has improved and the financial system has stabilized. The stimulus has brought confidence into the economy.
Make no mistake, this recession started in the Spring of `08. Bush had about a year to fixed it but they couldn`t. Now Obama is fixing it and conservatives are complaining. They had no clue then and still have no clue now.

Normam and how about some facts : Department of Labor Release: In the week ending Sept. 26, the advance figure for seasonally adjusted initial claims was 551,000, an increase of 17,000 from the previous week’s revised figure of 534,000.

Good thing we have someone with the intellect of Obama to solve these issues – most of which were created by someone with NO intellect – G W Bush.

jon | Oct 5, 2009 12:31:08 AM: Obviously you are reading all of the wrong books when it comes to a proper understanding of what communism is. You have NO IDEA of what that is. You would fit well into the McCarthyism after WWII. Many of you anti-socialists out there fail to understand how much of your world and the United States relies on the social good to maximize the good for the majority of society. You are reaping the results of that socialism every day and many times each day. Each time you get into your socially mandated safe cars and ride on that tax-paid highway and see the fire put out by your government paid fire departments, and protected by your local police. The water you drink out of your faucets, the military that protects you at home and overseas, and the list goes on and on with the socialist policies. Capitalism helps to make that process work from the other direction to help us pay for these required and desired needs. If we share in the support and cost of anything as a society, that is known as “socialism”. Note that both capitalism or socialism can be termed as parasites of society if either grows too large or out of control. Neither of them can succeed without the help of the other. You might call it a symbiotic relationship that works best for both when proper balance is achieved. Your government, appropriately sized and with proper checks and balances is part of this whole mechanism that we the people have voted and put into place. This, as stipulated in our Constitution, as much as possible, is “For the people, by the people and of the people”. President Obama and his administration is an extension of that mandate by the people that we placed into power via our “Fair” election process to find the appropriate path to overcome the poor balance between these capitalist and socialist policies of our society.
