I consider this one of the first good signs for the economy in a long time......one less moronic lib twit trying to find ways to screw around with it.

I guess her “Give-Away-A-Trillion-Dollars-To-Our-Friends-And-Call-It-A-Stimulus” plan didn’t have the desired effect.

Probably wants to get a gig before he forgives all that negative home equity because if her stamp is on it she will be even more un-employable. My guess is it is that or she was for keeping the Bush Tax Cuts, and has no comfort level with the clowns she is working with. Even the most ardent socialist realizes what is fertilizing the tomatoes does not smell well......

“But then, what kind of job does an economist have under a socialist regime?”

Not much of a job, kinda like everyone else. But I have to disagree on one point. BO is a communist and not a socialist.

So I guess the Unemployment Claims for the week are 479,001.

LOL. Maybe, but my guess is she’ll get picked up by some liberal think tank.

Unexpectedly...

Funny how that is far and away the major keyword of every bit of economic news we get fed from the leftist media. Every freakin downdurn is "unexpected" like these "journalists" never took a single Econ 101 class.

Freakin retard commie media scum.

There's more to it than the story is being told. My guess is that Rat internal polling shows the economy is about to cost the Rats at least the House and Romer is the first sacrificial lamb.

I think she got tired of seeing her economic treatises which contradict all Obama is doing showing up on NRO and HotAir.

Just clearing the path for Jenny Granholm...

God yes look at the great job she did in Michigan. Romer didn’t move us fast enough to socialism, Granholm is a pro!
Romer and Granholm is the closest thing this administration has to describe a double dip recession. Excellent choice Bammy!

So the chairwoman of the President’s Council of Economic Advisers quits after less than 2 years, thats really going to inspire confidence in Obama……..not.

This man is just proving very difficult to work with it seems. No one hangs around long.

Romer has given Obama advice to do certain things.

Obama ignored her advice and, through his appointees, did precisely the opposite. As a result, we still have 10% unemployment and even the corporate side of the recovery is as wobbly as Jell-O.

You’d resign too.

you don’t just walk out of a post like this, there’s been some serious bust up or more probably Obama doesnt take advice from women and we know where that comes from.
