Biden: Americans 'No Longer Worried' About Economy Daniel Halper February 25, 2013 12:39 PM

In remarks today at the White House, Vice President Joe Biden said that Americans don't have the same economic worries they did when President Barack Obama came into office:

"The are no longer traumatized by what was a traumatizing event, the great collapse of 2008," said Biden. "They are no longer worried, I think, about our economy being overwhelmed either by Europe writ large, the EU, or China somehow swallowing up every bit of innovation that exists in the world. They are no longer, I think, worried about our economy being overwhelmed beyond our shores. But, and I don't think ... there is very little doubt in any circles out there about America's ability to be in position to lead the world in the 21st century. Not only in terms of our foreign policy, our incredible defense establishment, but economically."

Here's a post that I made early this morning regarding this thread:

Three Reasons Conservatives are Losing the Battle for America

Reference this quote in the article...

"("No, President Obama has NOT increased the deficit: that's a lie! For your information, President Obama has spent less than any President in history!"); "

I have a liberal/democRAT/marxist/socialist (sorry to be redundant) acquaintance say exactly that. So I said, let's go to the computer, and treasury.gov. She refused to even look at the data.

The people who support 0bama and his regime act like a cult. A very dangerous cult.

No, he is right. Americans are no longer worried about the economy the way the crew of a burning B-17 is not longer worried about the aeroplane - they’re worried about their parachutes...

With supremely poetic justice when societal order completely breaks down, Joe’s end will come by shotgun.

And denial is not just a river in Egypt.

He’s talking about the 47% that are satisfied living on the freebies that Uncle Sam provides! It has become the status Quo!

The idiots who voted for him aren’t smart enough to worry about the economy, the EBT cards still work.

"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another..."

This type truly is of a different people, a different culture. At this point in history the only thing keeping us together is the point of a bayonet.

We’re not worried about the economy. Obama is clearly driving his Great Recession straight down even further into the economic sewer, so we’ve taken appropriate measures to cushion our little part of the big crash..er, fall.

We don’t LIKE it, but we aren’t “worried” anymore. You don’t worry about what is beyond doubt, you simply take necessary measures, relax, and try to enjoy the rest of your life.
