Good point. Obama took office when 700,000 people were losing their jobs that month. Now we are seeing the economy add jobs each month. I'm glad you helped me remember.

Most REAL businesses are set up as a corporation or LLC. I was a single-person S-CORP. Am I a "small business" or a "corportation"??

I define a "small business" as grandma selling Beanie Babies on eBay for cigarette money.

It took 21 months after the end of a recession under the last President for the first month with a job growth compared to this President when it took only 7.

You've got it backwards, as expected.

Did that ever happen before Obama took office?

Big Business (and its campaign cash) is the rocket fuel of the OBAMA MACHINE.

The relationship between Obama and General Electric is not unlike that of the relationship between two porn actors on the set.

The Obamabots are controlled by the messages injected into their brains by General Electric's NBC "News" Diversions.

There is not one thing Obama has done for the little guy that did not depend on IOU's to be paid for by the little guy...

NOT. ONE. THING.
So he's trying to win reelection by being anti-American?

Winter_Sucks talked about Big Business, because for all liberals business is just big business, not simple retailers or start-up founders...

At Obama's rate of job creation it will that 100 years to regain all the jobs lost since 2007 before he can claim ONE NEW private sector job.
