Maybe they are getting scared because their little liberal sheep press is now starting to find their voice and possibly a modicum of self respect. Slowly everyone is waking up to this wolf in sheep's clothing.

What hussein obama has stimulated is our anger!

This whole administration is a bust.
But, keeping unemployment numbers at a 26 year high benefits Obama. Makes people feel powerless and in need of rescue and a "nannie state". The unemployed will cheer on any sort of health care bill and he knows it, you know gotta "take advantage of any crisis." Disgusting, really.

The bear market rally seems to be over and now we're left with either having the ecnomy continue to slump, or get worse. And that's until the deficit and inflation start making things alot worse. Obama is running out of phoney baloney causes to blame for his recession.

Unless one is living under a rock, it is very obvious the stimulus is failing. It was nothing more than smoke and mirrors, the smoke being our money going up in flames.

Where's the poll selection for "too early to tell"

Rather that p*** and moan about everything. I'm going to batten down the hatches and hope we get out of this mess in a few years. Or at least hope things will get better.

Where have you been??? True unemployment is over 15%. Obama will continue on his path to ruining the nation, while the media (and other non-thinkers) continue to use his "Hope" (*cue earnest, looking heaven-ward Obama) posters as letterhead.

every household should have received a check for $10,000. But no, Obama was selfish and wanted to increase his government.
Power and control, that's the name of the obama game.

there would be no difference if anybody else in the white house. but i do understand that he's the potus and regardless of history, it's on his shoulders. i don't even blame bush. this crap storm has been coming since reagan. ron paul and many others were like nostradamus...

i know that's the rational way to look at things and that's no fun. especially in the age of msnbc, fnc, bloggers, and message boards.

i have an honest question...not trying to be a smart alec. I don't know if you watch tv news or not. but do you consider fnc to be part of "the media?" or all stations except fnc are "the media?"

Obama is purposefully making people "feel powerless."

Wow.

Paranoid, much?

Oh please. You've been trying to ramp up the fear of Obama for over a year. It didn't work before the election. It won't work now.

He's black. Get over it "mamma."
