Did CNN ask any of the 47 million people on food stamps what they think.

Comrades! The latest statistics show great increases in industrial production. By 2025 all Citizens will be able to take high speed rail from Sacramento to Bakersfield. But only if they decide not to make it a week long trip in their GM Volt or think they can afford $6.00/litre petrol. Remember that when W. Bush was running the economy no one could drive a GM Volt or ride in high speed rail. Now, these are promised to all!

This just in, exciting news from the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics! Sugar beet harvests this year are expected to surpass quotas once again! Citizens should be receiving coupons for a half kilogram of sugar by the time this increased harvest hits the factories in December or January! Please don't expect to see anything before November!

Yes, comrade, I remember in the days of Ronald Reagan, only rich capitalists could afford sugar for their tea, the proletariat had to drink weak tea without sugar, but under Chairman Obama strong tea and two lumps of sugar are promised to all!

I hate when anyone quotes the 8.x percent unemployment rate because they are not mentioning how the workforce has SHRUNK! That rate is total BS, if you count the people who were in the workforce in 2008 it is now about 10% or 11%!

Up is down and down is up to these stupid libtards.

Let me review my checklist.

401K still down from 2008— check
Salary still not caught up to 10% pay cut in 2009 —check
Mortgage slightly underwater from 2008 — check
Every thing more expensive — check

ABO — R&R for hopefully a better future because it sure isn’t going to happen with 0bama.

just wait, friday’s jobless report will be all milk and hone and a tribute to dear leader.

The debt clock will go unnoticed by the MSM.

If you look at it from the perspective of the American leech, they ARE better off....more booty - EITC,
Advanced EITC payments, FICA 2% kickback (same benefits), TANF (welfare) increased and NO WORK REQUIREMENT now, ObamaPhone, rent assistance (Section 8), utilities assistance, education assistance (no collateral/debt government backed college loans), ObamaCare, WICS, SNAP and all the other dozens of leech programs...

A virtual cornucopia of benefits costing nothing but a single (well, we know how that ends up) vote.

That's also a very good point. Another part of the Obama legacy. He has crushed the dreams of millions; they have just given up and quit trying.

Another reason to: Encourage all of your Democrat friends to get out and vote on November 7th, the stakes are high.

I don’t know how this can do anything but make CNN look stupid to anyone living in the real world.

This year with our business we have had at least double the number of people making payments instead of paying their full bill. We’ve had our first (and last) bounced check. We’ve had our first experience being listed in a bankruptcy filing. We usually have two or three unpaid customer invoices at one time, we now have a 1” stack of them. We’ve had to file more liens this year than the entire time we’ve been in business. We’ve had more people pay by credit card than ever before.

It’s ugly out there and everyone else seems to know it.

CNN is full of Sh!T up to their eyeballs. I’m making less money now, doing to same job as I did 10 years ago! And the price of everything has doubled since! Welcome to the new plantation, where we are all wage slaves now! The plantation is an equal oppurtunity employer, no one can escape!

The unemployment numbers are misleading. The unemployment rate only leaped above 7% in the final two months of Bush's presidency due to the 2008 financial crisis which was caused by the democrats, e.g. Clinton, Dodd, Frank.

The average unemployment rate during Bush's 8 years was 5.2%. In comparison that average was 5.1% during Clinton's 8 years. Funny how the dems have succeeded in making the Clinton years look better than the Bush years when they were about the same from an unemployment standpoint.

The average unemployment rate during Obama's 'reign' is 9.1 (Aug/2012). In comparison the average unemployment rate during Carter was 7.6%.

But here is a killer statement -- as of June, 2012 "the unemployment rate in all 41 months of Obama’s presidency has been higher than that of any single month in President Bush’s 8 years in office." That is an incredible statistic I don't hear this mentioned much.

Happy Labor Day, Barack!
