Really, the "food stamp president", how many required sound bites are you supposed to use in a given week, to be a good little lock step republican? Oh yeah, and lets not forget "socialist"......yeah, thats new and fresh.
And after saying this here, you were off in another thread ranting on about "Christians" holding everyone hostage to their religion. Which pretty much makes you the proverbial pot calling the kettle black. I mean you even went so far as to put the ubiquitous "" around the word Christian - it just doesn't get any less new or fresh or any more lock step than that.
Since President Obama is now successfully turning around the Great Bush Depression, do you think the GOP will try to run against abortion, gay rights, Obama's so-called "War on Religion", and the "evils" of birth control, since they totally lack credibility on the economy?
I think the latest controversy over contraceptive and Rick Santorum's wins suggest this is where the race is going...
You'll know the economy is turning around when the UE rate starts to increase again. It's currently decreasing because of all the discouraged workers leaving the labor force. When they return they'll be counted again and the UE rate will increase and then over a period of time decrease.
Currently the labor participation rate is at 1980's levels and dropping.

What are you talking about? The economy is bad. We're still losing jobs.

What planet did you say you were living on?
I think you are a bit confused. Barack Obama has been our "President" (some call him the 'acting' President) for the last three years. This isn't, therefor, the "Great Bush Depression" It is the Great Obama Depression.
Even during the last six months of the Bush presidency, the economy was much better than it is now, and unemployment relatively low. It is currently calculated to be around 11% — the real number, not the phony number that the administration puts out for purposes of Obama's re-election. Some even place it higher.
And nothing is "turning around", but instead things continue to worsen. Three are no jobs being created and many people have simply given up looking for work (which is why the real unemployment numbers are higher — they don't include those people in their calculations).
One thing is clear: Somebody has you bamboozled. And apparently many others as well.
To put it in terms that Bill Clinton and Al Gore used in their campaign in 1992: "Everything that should be down is up, and everything that should be up is down."
Now that the economy is getting better, will Repubs run a "cultural war" presidential campaign?
It's the GOP's stock in trade. And it's how they win elections. Convincing uninformed "low information voters" that every election is about guns, god and gays is their ace in the hole.
Every time the unemployment numbers move the screams of the economy getting better come from the swooners. Well here we go again. Nothing is improving and if anything getting worse. More folks dropping from the rolls, gas prices shooting up, debt continues to mount yet we hear yet another recovery summer on the way. What is this the third one? Is the third time the charm? Obama and his propoganda ministers can scream from their pulpits how great the economy is but folks sitting around while things continue status quo or worse know it's not.
FINALLY!! Someone who understands that people are DROPPING OFF OF UNEMPLOYMENT because they have run out of benefits!! And the government no longer claims them as 'UNEMPLOYED'!!
Not only that, but the economy ALWAYS gets a boost around Christmas time!! And these BOZOs are claiming RECOVERY!!
That just shows how utterly DESPERATE the left wing loons are to latch on to something positive from the biggest Presidential failure since jmmy carter steered us to the brink.
Obama must have found carter's playbook in a box in the corner of the white house basement and decided to dust it off and give it another go.
