Unfortunate that FR has lost so many mature and thoughtful
posters in the various purges over the years. It has taken
on many aspects of a mens college dorm.

Agreed. But remembering that civil servants will not work for free, one wonders what will happen when there is no money to pay them? Thats a cut. It may be that in the years ahead, we will be lucky to even have enough to feed and house our military.

Did she ever say where all the workers who disappear from the "seeking work" rolls every month disappear to?

Business Insider has an article on her leaving. Not much to it, mostly conjecture that Rhamit was rhamming his own agenda through, and she was left in spin cycle.

Knowing Larry Summers, he probably is.

Obama's teleginically challenged economic team.

One with his hand$ in his pocket, one laughing his a** off he needs to hold it by leaning on wood, one looking stern for appearance sake hoping no one can see through him and the other one needing to 'hold onto something' quits. One pix says a thousand words.

Purges? Puh-leeze. Feel free to identify those "thoughtful and mature" posters that were "purged". I've been a member of FR for nearly 12 years, and JimRob has never run off anyone who didn't deserve a zot.

I'd rather be governed by those from my college dorm than all of the legislators (from both parties) in Washington DC and state houses throughout the land.

Little Lotta drank the Obama Koolaid the past two years, and now she's leaving? She's a hypocrite of the highest order. She's gettin' out before the shite hits the fan. Now that she's left the inner circle, she can whine all she wants to that "wah-wah-wah, they didn't listen to me, and I was right, wah-wah-wah."

Watch out, Lotta...Keith Olbermann's going to do a "Special Comment" on you.

Thank you for the truth. We all need to take a breath and fight against ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome).

“Purges? Puh-leeze. Feel free to identify those “thoughtful and mature” posters that were “purged”. I’ve been a member of FR for nearly 12 years, and JimRob has never run off anyone who didn’t deserve a zot.”

While there may not have been any official “purges”, a LOT of people are gone from this site, for various reasons. I myself left, at the height of the housing insanity, because I got tired of being accused of being a liberal for questioning the insanity going in with housing and liar loans, and being accused of trying to damage President Bush by daring to question it all. I know a lot of people felt the same way I did, and I don’t see them posting anymore.

All I know is this place is not half of what it used to be, which is a shame. There was a lot of nastiness over issues like the housing boom, Palin, etc.., and while it might not be JimRob doing it, some might see it that way if they don’t spend all day reading here - all they know is people they saw people stop posting.

So you’re fine with stupid sexist comments against a
female naval officer you don’t personally know?

What if it were your daughter in uniform they were barking
at?

Tell me why would you defend stupidity like that?

Christina Romer did everything in her power to convince legislators and the electorate to approve a 850 BILLION dollar stimulus bill. Actions have consequences, at least for us they will. Christina Romer will ride off into the sunset and reap millions from her time in the Administration. She will be comfortable and prosperous. Nobody will hold her feet to the fire.

But I will. This damning graphic, taken from HER document, used to sell one of these programs which will be the ruination of this country. One of HER programs.

Romer was fired to provide cover.

Of that I am sure...

But...she WAS his top economic adviser. Sure, there is Larry Summers, but he is just a liberal tool, and he should be gone as well. What a dope.
