BBC News: Markets fall despite Obama speech

I’m hoping the smart people in this world have finally figured out they weren’t too smart when they voted for this guy. They now see he’s totally incompetent in everything except reading.

[forgotten man]

I don’t want to hear any more criticism of 0bama’s vacations. We are all better off when he is away.

[Stormdog]

That’s exactly the one I was thinking of.

Unfortunately were still paying for that SOB’s “Great Society” to this day.

[DeaconBenjamin]

Actually, it had me LOL.

ROFL , BBC are blinded by the greatness of Obama or maybe because they think the sun shines out his A$$

[MestaMachine]

Sorta. But Mondale didn’t hate this country. He was a flake and a liberal. But he didn’t hate his country.
Then again, obama probably doesn’t hate kenya....

“Markets Fall Despite Obama’s Speech”. The Muzzy Messiah spoke and the center of the universe didn’t shift? How uncompromising of reality. Start the stopwatch on how long it takes for one of his paid talking heads to attribute extremist/racist elements to the muddy financial water that refuses to call itself wine. Fear not, loyal Black Banana Buddies, he can still change paper into money, that heap big juju, you bet!

[Infralutheran]

"Obama speaks and market freaks."

That is a good one. I remember someone here came up with "Obama spoke, we all went broke" back in 2009, but I can't remember who. Both slogans are great.

[ronnie raygun]

Deliberate, now do you believe? We are the enemy

[newzjunkey]

Drat! You beat me to it!

[Calvin Locke]

No, they think the Sun shine out of theirs, because they wanted him,
and are loathed to admit the Sun can't shine, because their heads
are fully inserted in two places at once. Up BHO's and their own.

I gave up listening to the BBC a number of years ago. I used to listen on SW.

“Despite? How about “because of.” Optimists may have been hoping he would put Obamacare on hold. That he would end the campaign against US oil and coal production. That he would lift the repeated threats to raise taxes during a recession. That he would allow Boeng to create a thousand new jobs in South Carolina. That he would cancel the Chicago-Detroit-St Lous high speed rail boondoggle, returning billions of the unused stimulus funds to the treasury. That he would tear up the thousands of pages of new regulations drawn up by extremist bureaucrats with no understanding of or interest in the economy. That he would be a man and lead, presenting a real package of budget savings. And so much more. Instead we got the same old blame game. We really need a leader and will probably stagnate until 2012.

In that same vein..tell the kids over at DU...the chant goes this way...

Hey-Ho..BHO...How many kids have you killed for dough!!

[Anima Mundi]

It is very clear to me that when he speaks he has no idea of the MEANING of what he says. He just reads/says what he is told. A careful listen reveals this disconnect. The pauses are in the wrong places too often.

[jackieh]

If Obama wanted to make a speech that would make the markets soar it would simply be this,
“I shall not seek re-election to a second term as Preisdent of the United States.”

Amen, Baby Jesus!

[MestaMachine]

I have always believed that HE is the enemy. So I guess that makes us even. Now where is someone with the authority and balls to move him out of there? Are there any Patriots left in our governement or our military hierarchy, law enforcement, courts? Anyone?
