I like most people have survived and prospered under Obama. If your not surviving, that's your problem.
Whats that sound I hear? Oh! Its the deficit shrinking .
Wait! What else do I hear? Americans investing in America again. That's right boom baby boom.
Is that a factory I see being built here? In sourcing.
Oh look! People are buying houses they can actually afford. Not overpriced crap.
Obama needs to address student loans and the too high corporate tax rate. Get the loopholes closed and drop that tax rate. If he does that, then we have a smooth ride ahead.
And the people who set out to destroy him from the day he was elected. Somehow that doesn't jibe with the fact that he got elected to a second term. It takes a brave man to fight that battle.

Very true. Some people just want to blame the government for everything rather than take any personal responsibility for their situation. By their logic, we should all blame George Bush for the fact that our property lost so much value under his regime.
Obama has endorsed virtually every position that he and his supporters loathed about Bush. Yet, the outcry on the left is negligible and may as well not exist at all. This sheep mentality is what is hurting the country.

How many times do you idiots need to be told. It was Obama who sued Citibank forcing the banks to give loans to people who couldn't afford them. Housing prices skyrocketed, people were forced to pay higher and higher prices, the banks kept giving sub-prime loans and it all came falling down.
As always the problem starts when government gets their fingers in there, changing the rules to accommodate the poor who don't have any sense of financial responsibility.
Oh, god such crap! It's pretty much the same paranoia leftists had over W: 'This country is never going to survive another four years of W!'
It's 2014 and Obama will only be president for about 2.5 years. If our country has survived him this long, it's seems highly likely we'll survive that long.
Such a drama queen...
In the leftists defense, the economy was reeling towards the end of the Bush Administration. They had a reason to complain.

If we had recent historical average interest rates, our annual deficit would be 1 Trillion dollars still.
QE money creation is in fact trickle down economics.

Are those excuses I hear?
The deficit is shrinking due to a combination of spending cuts, minor tax reform, and expiration of the Bush tax cuts.
Interest rates are artificial. They are set by the Fed and manipulated by the Fed.
"If" arguments are irrelevant. They aren't arguments at all so save them.

It appears the depth of your knowledge doesn't quite match the the strength of your convictions on this subject.
