Well, with two "Recovery Summers" under...

[Yonivore]

...his belt, Obama is as much a failure as he was three summers ago.

Americans for Prosperity will remind the country what a real recovery looks like.

[boutons_deux]

they have to go back to St Ronnie for a recovery?

Skipping over no-recovery/no jobs/flat household income/Banksters Great Depression dubya and his "it's the economy, stupid-victim" Pappy?

What could Obama, he being an all-powerful, divine-right king and dictator, have done differently to quicken the recovery from free-market-capitalism's Great Banksters Depresssion?

What would you expect from losers Gecko/Ryan that would erase the Depression sooner?

Fox, Repug propaganda is AWAYS lying and counts on the ignorance, racism, amnesia, self-injuring-voting of their lily-white base.

[boutons_deux]

Why doesn't the ad tell us about St Ronnie The Diseased

RAISING TAXES

multiple times?

St Ronnie is way too far left for today's Repugs. And of course, their legend of him is complete myth.

Biggest Repug myth is that St Ronnie, champion of capitalism, defeated the Communist Russians all by himself!

The S&P 500 is up 76% since Obama took office. The unemployment rate is down nearly two points from its peak. The recovery has not been as strong as I would have liked, but it is far from a failure.

What part of "jobless recovery" did Yonivore not read about back in 2008?

Worst recovery since the Great Depression...and, it's being argued, that one was made worse -- certainly extended -- by FDR's New Deal stimulus nonsense. , at least he put people to work.

And, as for unemployment, it would be at 11% if not for those who have given up on finding a job.

99-weekers, up.

Welfare rolls, up.

Poverty, up.

Consumer prices, up.

And on and on and on.

It gets the point across.

I predicted the Repugs, bequeathing the worst, deepest, longest depression in 80 years, would blame it all on Obama, while blocking any attempts to stimulate the economy, create jobs.

It's a huge lie.

But the 2010 crop of Repugs and tea baggers have proposed 20+ bills or amendments on abortion!

That crop also ran on "where's the jobs?" but themselves have done nothing to create jobs, while the Repugs states have added 1% to national unemployment rate by laying off their state/local govt employees.

That the campaign is all make-believe? Sure does.

Nothing says real like a poor photoshop job...

lol Americans for Prosperity.

This forum has pretty much become a replica of Yoni's inbox.

The eurozone is heading back into recession and we are likely to follow. So that's nice spin but I don't think people are going to buy it.

Argued by the guy who developed the blueprint for our dying economy of the last 30 years.

The point that Americans for Prosperity literally has to make up to fit its narrative. Yeah, that point comes across clearly.

crofl republicans are so sad nowadays

Sorry, I didn't realize I was talking to a kindergartner.

I really could give a one way or another about gays, but I certainly have no problem with wealthy people.

This is a problem why?

I don't think that's an AforP graphic, I grabbed it elsewhere.

Those are facts, not spin, and what you said doesn't change the fact that the now 3 year old recovery was not a failure. Sure, we all would have liked for more jobs to be created, but weak job creation is a side effect of off shoring your manufacturing base to China. Fixing our trade policy is one of my big gripes with Obama, but I have no allusions that Romney is going to do a damn thing about it either.

[boutons_deux]

So the Eurozone screw up is Barry's fault?

btw, the Eurozone's austerity project, like what the Repugs want to visit on USA, has been a blatant failure, so they're trying stop the austerity, which is leading them into recession.

How will King Gecko fix the Eurozone and get unemployment down to 5%?

[Wild Cobra]

I call it a failure.

The S&P should be even higher. The Dow should be higher. Unemployment should be lower.

Well he claimed the global recession was entirely Bush's/GOP's fault and he would fix everything. So now he get's to take the blame for the global economy. That's what happens when you blame the other side for all the worlds ills and promise the moon.

If Gary Shilling is right again then we are likely in or very close to another recession.

"We've had three consecutive months of declines in retail sales," says Shilling, president of A. Shilling & Co., an economic research and forecasting firm. "That's happened 29 times since they started collecting the data in 1947, and in 27 of the 29 we were either in a recession or within three months of it."

Yes We Can go back into recession

[Winehole23]

President Romney will have no control over that either, imho. Presidents don't dictate macroeconomics.

[Winehole23]

also, where did Obama say he would "fix everything?"

are you quoting by heart?
