The equations of economic growth are similar to those in aerodynamics.

Our economy was in a flat spin....

now rolled over and in a vertical dive...

with the crazy pilot (obambi) shouting "Allah Akbar"

“Do I believe the president makes decisions based on me and my family?”

So sad but too true. We once voted on principals of liberty and righteousness. Now we vote for “what’s in it for me?”

The vast majority of those alleged “economists” are pure idiots and are no more than glorified Nostradamus-wannabe’s.

I have said it once and I will say it again: you can obtain an certificate certifying one as an “economist” from the back of any comic book. =.=

The markets still wait for those reports and the say so of the media to make their decisions. I have never such stupid investors.

The +18,000 if from the Establishment data.

The more accurate Household survey shows -445,000 jobs!

The only reason the rate only moved up to 9.2% is that the Civilian Labor Force dropped -272,000.

The participation rate dropped to 64.1%

I have recently begun to think of it as the sounds Obama makes during a speech.

This is the last thing Obama wants to be known for at this time. November 2012 is roaring down the track, and damsel Obama has 500 feet of new rope wrapped around him and the railroad tracks.

This guy is utterly clueless as to what to do next.

It’s so bad, that only yesterday his crew was announcing the replacement of American truckers with Mexican truckers. The timing couldn’t have been worse if I had been able to set the time table.

No doubt Obama addressed the nation this morning and bragged about the new jobs his crew have created. Was anyone listening? Does it matter what this buffoon says any longer?

Obama is headed for a train wreck in a little over 15 months. Where is Dudley Do-Right when you need him? Sorry Barack. We knew Nell Carter, and you’re no Nell Carter. Shaving off that mustache didn’t fool anyone Snidely.

The real estate collapse means the usual summer increase in construction jobs has not happened.

THIS'LL MAKE YOU LAUGH OUT LOUD David Plouffe, Ohaha's political strategist, says Americans won't use the high unemployment issue as their criteria when voting.

ROTFLOL.

In a perverted way---cockeyed Plouffe may be right---Ohaha has screwed up in so many different ways---EVERY voter will have their own reason to vote against him.

I saw that that 'won't use the high unemployment issue' blurb by David Poofer, oops 'Plouffe', and immediately thought -- I WANT WHAT HE'S TAKING!. 'Cause all my Vicodin ain't making me hallucinate.

But yes, in a sick way that *Poofer* could be right. As there's 3 Million Plus (unemployed) Reasons to not only NOT vote for him, but to utterly loathe him. Kind of like Elizabeth Barrett Browning's:

"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways."
Except switch love to loathe. And naturally it'd be a tad longer than her little sonnet - 3 Million plus times longer.

Barry's such an utter nincompoop, he's making doofus Jimmah Carter look like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison combined.

I can buy into the evil descriptor.

I will also expand the group(s) deserving of that label to those who championed sending jobs to China, to India, to Mexico, and bringing in foreigners to replace workers here across the board.

I will also include presidents who allowed immigration from terrorist nations, or nations known to have a high percentage of it’s populace despise the United States.

I will also extend that descriptor to Presidents that allowed certain religious leaders to preach death and destruction to the United States and it’s Citizens, without any intervention whatsoever.

I will also extend that descriptor to Presidents who allowed tens of thousands of foreign nationals from the Middle-East to flood our universities, also run rampant around the United States doing as they pleased, totally unrelated to their education, posing a serious threat to our nation’s soft underbelly. 19 such students carried out 09/11, and we have 30,000 of them on our soil at any given time.

Our leaders have been engaging in actions that will result in our nation being taken down.

Yes, that is pure EVIL.

What replaces this nation is pure EVIL, and facilitating that represents an errand for the instigator of EVIL.

“The amazing thing is people still believe what Barry says.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I am amazed that anyone ever believed anything he has said. He made it plain long before the ‘08 election just what it was that made his eyes brown. No one could actually pay attention to him and think rationally without very rapidly concluding that he has never met the truth and wouldn’t recognize it. This clown stood on the stage at Denver for his acceptance speech and promised to defeat poverty, disease and climate change. Good grief people, that is claiming supernatural powers, didn’t anyone realize that?
