Under Obama:
  • Jobless claims have "unexpectedly" risen
  • Sales of homes dropped "unexpectedly"
  • Shovel Ready jobs were "unexpectedly" low
  • Manufacturing output dropped "unexpectedly"
  • Consumer spendng dropped "unexpectedly"
  • And countless economic reports have "unexpectedly" been revised to show even more problematic outcomes
Is "unexpectedly" the new word for incompetence? What can Barack Obama possibly campaign on, if his Administration can't be "expected" to get things right the first time around?

This is strange, especially since we can expect that our "utility bills will necessarily skyrocket."

We can expect that the plant closings caused by the EPA and the NLRB will continue to hobble the jobs picture.

We can expect that attacks on capital and capitalists will contribute to a continuing strike against new investments in America.

How dumb do you have to be, to not connect the dots between these policies and their natural result?

What is truly unexpected is how well the economy is standing up to the Obama assault.

Obama and the Democrats will "unexpectedly" lose big in 2012.

You knocked it out of the park! Especially that last line!

Yep, I think so too. The totality of the circumstances....including this Administration's bungled economic rescue attemp....dictates that he'll be a One Term President. I'm convinced.

Princess Bride ( Inconceivable [ Montage ] ) - YouTube

Just replace inconceivable with unexpectedly and you have Obama's explaination for everything that 'blame Bush' cannot cover.

LOL...exactly. Makes me wonder how much we pay people to come up with four words:

"It's Bush's Fault"

"Unexpectedly"

These words probably command several million dollars worth of salaries.

Nauseating Incompetence.
