Ok I get it, Obama success in in the other dimension that Obama lives. I have lost money and I pay more taxes.Obama can not even balance the budget or has a clue to the damage that China does to this country.
Economy is on track for best growth in 9 years. Credit goes to our great President Obama. To think that he did this with all the Republican obstructionism, is incredible. This man is indeed the greatest President we've ever had.
Yes--the SLOWEST growth rate over 5 non-recession years in a century! A record-breaker! Obama is Amazing!
But he could have done a LOT WORSE if the Republicans hadn't slowed him down. After next Tuesday let's hope there are a lot more Republicans to slow him down even more.
praising Obama on the economy is a whole lot like a parent praising thier 18 month old for taking its very first steps.
great job Jimmy! Look at you walking like a good boy!
Never mind that Jimmy is a half year late walking, took one step and fell flat on his still diapered bottom... hey dude just WALKED!!!
WALKED I TELL YA!!!!!
yea. great job Bammer. 6.5 years into your tenure the econonmy doesnt entirely suck... finally.... never mind there are more people on food stamps and below the poverty line than there were 9 years ago... hey look everybody Bammers economy is all the way up to, not tottally sucking!
Kind of hard to be 6.5 years into your tenure when you haven't had the job for 6 years.

Thanks for quite the laugh tonight. Working and needed that. Your right if economy is so damn good, why are so many stores closing shop. Small business calling it quits. His healthcare fiasco is not what everyone thought it would be, and some people I personally do know, are paying much higher premiums for a crappy healthcare which does not compare to what they had. And no they did not get to keep their Doctor. Another O Lie.
Nothing is in stone, and nothing truly worth talking about. More people under this administration who never thought they would, have seen the welfare lines. First time in their life. I know many who have had to stand in those lines. It ain't no fun.
The world, is more unsettled then ever. Strong as we once were, hell no.

Really? The economy's good?? Best in nine years????!! Here's some startling news for the leftists: There has been no recovery. Right now, 90-plus millions of Americans are out of work, one in five households are on food stamps (That's alarming!), 50 million in poverty, on and on. Your precious "president" helped siphon away many of our jobs to other countries. He'd rather we sit and twiddle our thumbs. That does not a good economy make.
Maybe that's the real thinking of Democrats: Lazy, no-working America. Not a good path to go on.

Write back when we can start rolling back welfare and food stamps.
He/She can write back NOW - in fact he/she could have written back more than a YEAR ago.
You're behind the times. The "rollback" has already started.
The number of participants receiving food stamps peaked in June of LAST YEAR - and has now dropped by MORE THAN A MILLION persons (nearly 400,000 households).
Haven't been able to find any national numbers on Welfare (as opposed to foodstamps) more recent than 2011 or so, but if true-BLUE Washington state is any indication, then Welfare rolls have fallen dramatically. Washington State welfare rolls have fallen from 70,000 in 2011 to roughly 40,000 today (a record low).
Apparently Virginia is at the lowest level of welfare participants since 1997. Not everyone is happy about that, but it's pretty apparent that welfare rolls are falling across the country in many, many states.
In general it appears that welfare reform is a common trend across the country - with more and more folks being taken off the rolls (which is EXACTLY what Republicans have been calling for for decades) - so any claims you folks make about welfare rolls now swelling under Obama are looking to be pretty much pure bullsh*t. They definitely went up when the recession hit and in it's immediate aftermath, but it's pretty obvious they are NOT going up NOW (in fact, it's a pretty obvious they are now going DOWN).
