vote for what? The party that caused the mess? Or the party that is having a hard time cleaning it up?

Cleaning it up? Making it worse...

I cannot believe Republicans have the nerve to say anything when they where the one's who created all this mess and now what do you expect one man to wave his magic wand and fix all this crap?!! IT TOOK 8 YEARS TO GET WHERE WE ARE AT..IT WILL TAKE LONGER TO REALLY GET OUT.

drwds does not have a clue about SS. He will certainly be getting more back than what he put in, just as most Americans will, just as there are so many , many Americans who depend on their SS checks and are not willing to give it up-----BECAUSE THEY NEED IT !
To all you gripers out there-----you know that you will gladly take your SS checks, you will be grateful that there is unemployment insurance for when you need it , that there is help with health insurance if you are sick and the insurance companies (those nice guys who refuse to pay when you get sick)
I am sure that none of you like the roads that are built by our government, and that you could do without the help you get from your state government, such as police, firemen , teachers,etc, etc
Yes and all this does cost money and we could do so much with the money that BUSH gave away for record tax breaks for the rich, and TRILLIONS for Iraq and bailout of Wall Street (the rich who screwed us)

I keep hearing about how the republicans want to reign in the federal deficit, but what is their solution to help 15 million unemployed americans? Do they think that ignoring us will make us go away? They jump at the chance to send billions of dollars in aid to foreign countries who have experienced a natural disaster, but what about the millions of americans who have been savaged by the wall street disaster? We have families, why can't the republicans see that every day they deny assistance, our children suffer? How many more foreclosures, bankruptcies, and homelessness must we endure before the president and the republicans stop marginalizing us as an undeserving percentage of the US population, and take action to protect all american citizens in need. We've worked for years, and paid our taxes into a system that moved with lightning speed to save wall street. Now I know how the people of New Orleans felt as the federal government stood by as they suffered from lack of food, water and medical supplies. Now the federal government is standing by while 15 million americans suffer. Jesus said, "forgive them father, for they know not what they do". I believe our elected representatives know exactly what they are doing, and I will not turn the other cheek. I will not surrender my dignity.

Obama has been on campaign for four years now. He will continue to lie about the job numbers as long as he is in office. Otherwise he would have to admit that the hundreds of billions spent on stimulus did not work and was nothing more than a UNION payoff.
Can't wait till he is a lame duck or impeached.

You forget to mention the almost 2 million workers who have given up looking for work. A large number of the jobs were census jobs that contributed to the falsely inflated numbers. Promises, promises, I sure am glad I didn't vote for Barry.

This economy will get better under Obama when pig's fly.

Most of what this president and HIS congress have done, will have to be undone, or redone. THAT will be his legacy.

I think it is like a b grade movie "THE STALLED RECOVERY SUMMER" or
maybe the "Endless Summer with No Recovery"
And the scene would be Obama surfing off into the sunset past miles of boarded up closed beach front businesses.

How do you fill a pool of water by stopping water flowing into the pool from the natural weather cycle, severely interrupting the natural water cycle and then simply taking the remaining water from one end of the pool with a large bucket, spilling a great deal on the way to the other end of the pool, dumping that removed water in another area of the pool and then announcing that you are raising the level of the pool if everyone will just give your method time to work.

That's the economic method that has led to the ruination of every totalitarian managed, socialist based economy since an embittered Marx formulated his social and economic theories in some isolated, dank and dusty British library a couple of hundred years ago.

What a joke! Time for that sort of nuts thinking to end, before even more folks die of thirst or for criticizing the water regulators while waiting for the pool to be filled up by government folk.
