Some people have finally jumped of the bandwagon but then you have those who will follow this fool into the river.

We are turning the corner and things are looking up.

The GOP takes control of the house soon and we can finally stop the Obama agenda of destruction of America.

Here's a nice little chart;

Disappointing Job Growth in U.S. as Jobless Rate Hits 9.8%

Quote:
In a significant setback to the recovery and market expectations, the United States economy added just 39,000 jobs in November, and the unemployment rate rose to 9.8 percent, according to the Department of Labor.

The anemic net gain in jobs came as economists had been gradually showing more optimism.
Here's the thing - there really was NO reason for that optimism, other than to try and prop obama up with false and misleading spin on the state of joblessness in the US.

I know, those bad, bad tax breaks only caused us to have 52 consecutive weeks of JOB GROWTH.

That Bush was a real bad man and caused all that job growth.

Bet this rise was "unexpected" again?

They should have known better. With Pelosi and Reid they already knew they were getting two of the worse leaders in congress in American history with a track record of being total failures behind them.

They should have known better knowing that liberals cannot run a popcorn stand without making it go bankrupt.

A "surprisingly" "unexpected" disappointing turn of events. The experts need to come up with some different descriptions to highlight their ineptness.

I love how the unemployment rate has just barely stayed below 10%. Unofficially it is way over 10%. But the minute it goes over 10% which it has to officially watch out.........it's a psychological nightmare more than anything.

The US economy will not recover anytime soon. It's going to take some sort of major technological breakthrough i.e. what the internet did for the 90s to see real economic growth or dare I say it..............WAR........which is more likely right now with everything going on in the world? $600+ billion defense budget you better realize what's on the horizon.

That lame duck of a puke President we have needs to go. Ron Paul needs to be elected by default and Jesse Ventura as VP. Biden is a do nothing butt clown. And John Boehner? What complete boner he will be. Losers in the US government on both sides...........epic fracking losers!

It is called ink & paper!


A bill to bring back trade tariffs!

Tax those for the privilege to do business here, instead of us for living in America.

An industrial revolution, would happen overnight.
We would start making our own stuff again, if we could just keep the Unions at bay. Companies would not look for a way around them.

WHERE are things 'looking up'?

You are jumping on the very GOP band wagon 'to save the day' that you accuse those 'who follow this fool into the river' (Obama) of.

Do you honestly believe the GOP is going to change anything for the better?
