they should also be shouting about how this justice dept is screwing over AZ and hwo it has become a political witch hunt against them but no yet again the GOP keep quiet.

To be honest I don’t think even if we get power in both houses and the white house they will repeal Govt health care .
I say that after seeing Laura Ingraham interview Cantor.

and wondering when we do get the boot, where do we go?

How about setting up tent on our Reps and Senators lawns that gave us this "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act", the 111th United States Congress, I'm sure their a compassionate bunch that wouldn't mind helping out

What was it Obama said, we don’t want to hear from the people who got us in to this mess.

I smell poetic justice for Mr Know-it-all, also, remember the Jesse Jackson warning; "stay out of the Bush's", haha!

Obama simply reeks of deperation now. Roemer quitting the Central Soviet Planning Bureau left a convulsively nonsensical image of an economic team wholely incapable of lifting the country out of ruin. It’s slipping through those fingers now, baby. No one is feeling that appetite for hope anymore.

“Obama said he would be offering a new package of ideas on the economy next week.”

Sure with the election coming up in about 8 weeks. Otherwise he could care less.

“So the question is - To whom has he given the task to come up with these ideas since he has no intention of doing actual work himself.”

Good question- especially since his economic team is bailing on him...

Narcissists never ever admit they are wrong. They believe they are God.

Then it will be fall of the recovery. (coined by another intelligent freeper).

Hello Nathan.....

There are several speaking out now about this “lame duck session” coming up.... where the Democrates will push thru just about anything they want to since they know they are going to go down anyway...I think there is good reasons to be concerned as well. The American people can and have protested and as we have seen ignored or at best appeased the uninformed. So what’s your take..am interested in your opinion.

You know they could leave such a mess by 2012 that even if we take the leadership it will take years to just get our heads above water...then the Democrates can come in for the “kill” in the next elecction... and take the credit for pulling us on out of all this muck and mire...yet continue with their agenda anew.

The market, like the Holy Spirit, is no respecter of persons or politics. It is a giant mistake to conflate politics with finance.

The would be true, except it is difficult to make the case that we still have a free market with all the bail outs and TBTF efforts put forth by our government and the Fed. We really have a version of crony - capitalism that is much more like Europe.

What these means is that politics and economics are now effectively and completely intertwined, the relationship between business and government is an uneasy partnership.

Both sides, the Fed/money center banks and the Federal government want more spending, they buy into these Keynesian ideas that we can borrow and stimulate our way out of this economic mess. This is a fool's errand, the marginal utility of debt and government spending are now very low or negative, it just will not work.

Congress is scared stupid to spend more money of any significance, the Fed will not do it for them right now. We are stuck in this stagnation, they will not let the market work and can't spend the amount that would make a difference. Government has completely perverted the market, this effectively leads us no where.

And he’s really doubling down on stupid this time.
