Unemployment going up vs Unemployment coming down
Silly kids - Sounds like something Shaudius would say to 'prove' his point
Unemployment 4.5% -> 5.2 = 'going up' or 9.2% -> 8.3 = 'coming down'
Which is better ?

I was wondering if something like this would come. While it isn't the perfect chart to illustrate my point it will serve as a decent method to demonstrate what I believe.
Here's the ultimate disconnect, Republicans want to hold Obama to task for the situation since his first day in office(hence why they won't support the chart), but fail to see the ultimate irony in that. Republicans like to constantly decry the inefficiencies of government, how government takes forever do anything, and how it can't get anything done in a reasonable time frame.
And yet at the same time they expect Obama to instantly turn around an economy on the decline, as if he can make sweeping changes to the way they think government operates(inefficiency) on day one, such that an economy on a downward trend will instantly turn around and start going upward the second he is elected.
Think about it this way, they point to the economy on a late day in January of 2009, and say, this is the day that Obama is responsible, everything should be measured from this point, as if on day 1 Obama's policies were in effect, or even could be. When the reality is that it takes many many days to see the effects and measure policy changes, no President , Republican or Democrat is truly responsible for economic conditions on day 1 of his Presidency.
Its the same faulty logic that leads current Republicans to decry all national debt increases under Obama. It completely ignores the fact that Obama had no budgetary effects outside of the stimulus on the approximately trillion dollars of deficit that he inherited in fiscal year 2010(a budget for which passed well before Obama took office) but which was added to the deficit in 2009(plus whatever budgetary constants he couldn't control, namely mandatory spending.)
But listening to the so called Republicans on this forum, you won't hear any of this. Instead what you will hear is talking points, namely that Obama is responsible for all economic conditions since the day he took office(and not some point after when his policies could reasonable be construed to be in effect), as well as all deficits and debt since the day he took office.
Note, that this is not a problem exclusive to Republican ideology, but it is the ideology primarily present on this forum, and as such it bears pointing out here more than other places.Comment -
Simply put, its not Obama's fault that the Economy contracted by 13% in George Bush's last 6 months in office. You can easily make the case we're in this situation because nobody could have predicted just how big of a failure conservatism and conservatives really are.
I hope they never come back.Comment -
I hear ya brother. We're dealing with kids and idiots that can't remember yesterday let alone Jan '09.
They can't think/ check facts on their own and follow the likes of limpballs and O'Rielly.
The proof is in the pudding, trouble is, they have to eat the pudding. They would rather drink the spiked Kool aide.Comment -

If you have a business....you didn't build that, someone else build that....
Some of the best lines by this guy obamaComment -
he had 4 years to fix it...it is even worst off then 4 years ago.Comment -
Said by someone who has collected 99 full weeks of unemployment and is CRYING & BEGGING for more.
Obama has thrown over $5 TRILLION dollars away and our country is worse off than if he did absolutely nothing.
The true unemployment rate is well over 15% and he has single-handedly convinced the majority of American citizens that its perfectly OK to walk away from your financial obligations and thats something that no future president will ever be able to fix.Liberals like agharah can NOT financially support themselves and whine and screech that conservatives are not paying enough taxes. The only thing conservatives ask of scummy liberals like agharah is to LEAVE US ALONE.Nobody could have predicted just how big of a failure conservatism and conservatives really are.
It doesn't matter if its a republican or democrat in the White House as the story is always the same. Liberals are whining and screeching about how unfair everything is while conservatives are hoping and praying they don't get fleeced by blood-sucking democrats.
The Democratic Party today announced that it is changing its symbol from the Donkey to a Condom because it more accurately reflects the Party's political stance:
A condom allows for inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of dicks and gives you a sense of security while you're actually being screwed!Comment -
Proven wrong ? Citation please.
And while your at it college records as wellComment -
LOL, I am not sure if serious or trolling. However, he did inherit a mess - one of the biggest messes America has ever seen. That said, the "What we have now" column has a buncha spun bullshit.
Let me put this in very simple terms, if that image was correct - he would not be in an election right now, and would be looking at an uncontested third term. Unfortunately, a lot of those need asterisks to a footnote explaining how they arrived at such a marvelous conclusion.Comment -
I think you guys originally liked 'bama, maybe even voted for him. You bought the hype. Most of you
that supported him are disappointed he hasn't changed the world with his magic wand.
I'm sorry to say it hasn't happened. Goes to show we are in dyer straights. Even though our economy
has a 1.5% growth, the euro countries don't and that puts a damper on us.
I knew he couldn't do all that bullshit he promised, which is why I didn't vote for him.
After seeing how the Republican't party acted during these hard times, really makes me sick.
The Rebubs are the ones who really fcked us, not "bama and the Dems. When you open your
eyes, look in the mirror, maybe you will see the real problem.Comment -
I'm not crazy about either guy running. But I can't vote for Obama. He wasted his first 2 years pushing through a stupid health insurance program that has only raised my health insurance costs by 6% each year. He claimed we were being bankrupted by health insurance before, but I never had an increase that high since I've been in business, and it's been 2 years in a row.
I also find it frightening that our sitting president believes the private sector "owes" the government, instead of the other way around. The government is supposed to work for us, not the other way around. It's no wonder there aren't many jobs here when our country has become so unfriendly to businessComment -

You petulant child. Like I'd need a handout from the likes of you. You don't want to be left alone, you want to be free from the consequences of your actions. You want to worship yourself. Your values are execrable, not because of what you think they are, but because of what they actually are, and the fact that you can't tell the difference. A noxious combination of arrogance, ignorance, and debt-moralism bordering on senility. You want to be left alone, fine. Then don't vote, don't go on message boards, don't do anything that implies you're a member of this society. Christopher McCandless went Into the Wild, you can too.Comment -
I wanted to say that too, but less eloquently.

National debt is 15 trillion. Obama has added five trillion so far.Comment -
Obama and Romney are both bad. Obama wins by popularity as well as those facts posted by the OP.Comment -
I will continue to post how PATHETIC and USELESS liberal democrats like you and RKelly really are and how much damage you are doing to this great country.
The only real reason I post on these message boards is to IRRITATE parasite liberal democrats like yourself and I will continue to do so AGAIN & AGAIN and if you don't like it, then tough shit.
It makes me feel better to express how horrible left-wingers are and the fact that I am irritating you is just icing on the cake.
At some point in the not too distant future, deadbeat bums like you are going to overwhelm the system as they continue to grow in number like rats and the productive members of society continue to shrink so its only a matter of time before the cards come crumbling down.
I have more than enough financial resources to re-locate when the time comes. However, hopefully the powers that be finally come to their senses and strip voting privileges away from parasites like you as that is the only solution to our country's problems.
As long as I have far more than I will ever need while the agharah's continue to struggle and live miserable lives, all is well.Comment -
It's like were taking our kid to preschool. Sure he had a small mess, but he loved the mess and wanted to make the mess ever worst.
Obama is out to downside our country at any cost! Look at Greece....Obama deep down wants this to happen to the USA. More unemployment, food stamps, disability, and unemployment benefits. Spend more and watch a deep depression abroad! Greece has a 40% suicide rate. We cant spend-spend-spend on gov programs. Otherwise look for a civil war right here and mass Marshall law.Comment -
Obama or Romney, doesn't fukkin matter......Just something more to divide the country and give jerkoffs a reason to gloat that "their team" won
Wake up.Comment -
LMFAO, keep pretending there is this gigantic chasm of difference between you two. Outside of which color tie you both prefer to back, the differences are negligible at best.
Assuming all liberals are welfare recipients or socialists is the same type of retarded logic as thinking all conservatives are greedy racists who threw the country into another depression with financial irresponsibility.
Political tribalism is ruining this country quicker than any policies found on either side of the aisle. You sir - are guilty as hell of practicing it.
Get a grip.Comment -
Really, on purpose? The only people purposely mentioning trying to sink America has been Rush and his retarded minions running around, saying that he hopes Obama fails. I have also read on here multiple times about how the tea party has asked business to not hire so Obama looks worse.
Obama hasn't purposely tried to sabotage America. People have tried to purposely sabotage the President and as a result hurt America.
Well played.Comment
