Oddly, disliking what Obama and Obamanomics have done to the country doesn’t make you:

racist
unpatriotic (if you were a real patriot you’d just nod and say yes to anything the administration wants to do)
conservative
Republican
Tea Party

It just makes you intelligent. Welcome to the disenfranchised.

Perhaps Mr. Obama can pawn his Nobel Peace Prize.

It really is coming to that.

White House panic? My god folks, we should all be. This is our country, our economy, we should not be rejoicing over bad news on the economy. I get the feeling that many people would be delighted to have an economic nightmare just to make the president look bad. Hardly American if you ask me.

We are a looooong way from next year. The only thing this article has done was to bring out the anti-Obama wolves. Yaaawwn!

Send Obama back to Chicago so he can sit in the pews while Reverend Wright damns America.

We’ve had enough. One term and out.

I’ve always gotten the feeling from the Democrats think a good economy “Just happens”. When it crashes, all you need to do is sit around and it will bounce right back up!

Usually this is foiled by the Republicans as they stop new taxes and programs from being created while the economy recovers. But this time there wasn’t enough Republican influence in Washington. The first two years of the Obama Presidency gave free rein to the Democrats.

This time they were able to implement anything their hearts desired. I suspect they just couldn’t wait for the economy to bounce back and take all the credit for it, plus new social programs and taxes.

At this rate, I’m hoping we don’t end up like Argentina.

All these trends will accelerate. All the “solutions” including the Ryan plan presume a return to 4% odd growth that is already six or eight months late. It will not arrive. Watch monthly revenues, they are only going DOWN. Increases in tax rates will drive that down faster. O will respond with further money printing, borrowing will scarcely be possible regardless of what happens with the debt ceiling.

Ha Ha Ha!!! And Odumbo and his flunkies helped bail out Goldman and took millions in campaign contributions and they get this news?? I love it. The economy is in a total depression and Obozo just wants more fed borrowing from the enemy to bail his sorry Party Boy butt out in 2012. Obozo loves flying around in his private jet, and his moron wife loves living off the broke taxpayer while she parties all over the world. Economic growth? There isn’t any!! Get used to it.

Obama, Obamacrats, Obamacare-all bad.
Now Obamanomics-also very bad.
It’s the reverse Midas touch. To quote our man-made-up climate change guru Al Gore: “Everything that is supposed to be down is up and everything that is supposed to be up is down.” It’ really to bad that those “…shovel-ready projects weren’t as shovel-ready as we thought. Ha, ha, ha …” What a comic!

It’s pretty obvious this President does not want to change directions. He has people around him who believe the Harvard Faculty Lounge Economic Plan will work eventually, it just needs more money. He’s had Robert Reich telling him all he needs is a WPA or some other New Deal program (which failed by the way) and things will be just fine. This is how you get to be a one term president.

Vote Republican and only be called a racist one more time.
