The Obama Economy:

From the Senate Budget Committee:

I would thank you Spiff but it's hard to feel grateful for news like this. To add (actually subtract) to this is the incredible $5.5 trillion in deficit spending under this guy. That's my present soapbox. That causes me to wonder if a different person had a soap box for each of the things this administration and congress are doing to disintegrate the U S A, how many of us would there be? How can this be sustained? It's scary to me that Obama has so many people that think he's doing great and that anything bad is still Bushes fault.

You don't need to worry about the debt. Didn't you hear the President last week say that the debt isn't a short term concern. It's really just a long-term concern.

I've seen the commercials on ESPN, the economy is doing great, we're all better off than we were 4 years ago, and we've had 4 years of consecutive job growth. Anyone who tells you the economy isn't doing great is obviously a liar.

[nuk13]

Well Spiff, thanks again. I didn't know there was something I could agree with the president on. The debt will be loooooong term. And yes Hawk, the economy is better, for instance gas is cheaper providing you only drive about 40% as far as you did before he took office. Too bad if you're a trucker though, or if you have to buy what they haul. Oh oh, that just about everything.

Who needs to drive anymore? No one has jobs so there's no need to drive anymore! Hope and change.

Hey, I think one of the things he's going to do for us is put in public transit! If that's true that's another reason we won't have to drive. Oh oh, one of the problems with that is how do I go to the remote places I love?
