I need some polite FReeper commentary on what your dislusrious POTUS is spinning re: the economic madness he presided over. Looking for rebuttal material.

Incredible how adding to the public debt by printing, printing, printing money just works.

For awhile.

And then...

Sadly, I have no polite commentary on the subject of the current occupant of the white house.

Cause And Effect.

What SPECIFICALLY did Obama himself do?

The Democrats can show a chart with Obama and the sun coming up in the morning, but that doesn’t mean he caused the sun to rise.

I’m sure the charts look great turned upside down like that.

How about you check out these charts to find out just how much of a bunch of @$$wipe liars run the executive branch of our government?

The economy is so strong the FED is afraid to raise interest rates above 0%.

Boy, they had to scrape for some really arcane statistics there. How about Household income since 2009? The labor participation rate? Growth in the GNP since 2009? Increase in the national debt? Percentage of people on welfare? The credit rating of the U.S. government? You know, REAL stats.

In reality, the "Depression-Like Shock" has grown to a full-blown deep depression.

Trillions have been lost by investors in the stock market, which has sunk again today by almost 0.50%. Businesses are shuttering their stores everyone you turn due to burdensome regulations. Consumers have no discretionary income because of confiscatory tax rates. The domestic oil industry has been severely crippled. The real (not media spun) unemployment rate is well beyond 21%. America's military might has been dismantled. The Republic hasn't been in worse shape since the 1930s...all due to the illegal regime of KKKenyn KKKing hussein and his criminal gang of White Mosque cronies.

Most of the time, when a person is that high on drugs they just pass out or go code red.

I commend them for having such a high tolerance.

He fails to mention more debt than all the previous presidents combined, before 0bama’s debt reign of terror.

That terror is reserved for American’s for generations to come so that 0bama can have his legacy today.
