Yeah....the "Good Olde Days"......
Unemployment under 5%.....
DOW over 14,600......
Ahhh....remember when....
Ah, yes - it all went downhill as soon as Obama took office.
Ask your pal Dixie - he was calling it the Obama recession before he even took office.
It's like the hack version of "deuling banjo's"....
Hussein Obama is scared shitless Onezie. Scared absolutely shitless.
Judging by this thread's spin festival, I'd guess it's the right who are scared that (gasp!) the economy might actually be in good shape in the coming months...

I didn't say that and its obviously not true....
If that all ya got, tata....

Its sure becoming Obamas just for the fact that hes done nothing of value to help the situation and some things to make matters worse...
This healthcare nonsense is worrisome,.. his attempt to buy the spanish vote with it and amnesty is transparent to many us....
Take a break sonny...you've got nothing of substance to offer anyway...
Someone help me remember what it was the liberals said when unemployment was inching down toward 4% under Bush? Wasn't it something about how all these millions of people had simply given up finding jobs, therefore, weren't counted as 'unemployed' anymore? It's good to know we have apparently solved that problem, and no one is giving up anymore, huh? Like the voter fraud in the elections, Diebold machines and all.... good thing we seem to have completely fixed the problem, isn't it?
Surely somebody remembers this? Unemployment kept going down every time they released the numbers, and liberals kept telling us this was because more and more people had given up hope of finding a job! Is that no longer the case, liberals??? What's the matter... cat got your tongues?
...and suddenly, all we hear from the left is the chirping of crickets!!
Not chirping, dear boy. Leather on willow.
Then how about explaining to us, how unemployment was near 4% under Bush and it was because people had given up hope of finding jobs, and now that it's 10%, that isn't the case anymore?
It is the case, retard. That's one of the figures you hear ALL THE TIME. "Real unemployment" vs reported unemployment isn't something you just discovered. The problem is nobody knows what the real figure is.
The positive news is that the economy is about to stop shedding jobs as a result of Obama's policies and start growing again. This is the best news for jobs since 2007, when the recession started. You know who was president then? It wasn't Obama. It was that guy you mentioned.
The "so-called REAL unemployment" figure is said to be 17.2% right now....
The economy should start recovering now (in spite of anything the Obama clown has or has not done)....its the normal recovery cycle in action....
He could fuck it up with a tax increase....even the healthcare nonsense might have a detrimental effect on the normal recovery....
That's one hell of a lot of people who are unemployed.
Sure is. But it's starting to reverse course, tootsie....
The average length of recession is about 11/12 months...over the last 50 years.....and most agree that employment is the last area to show improvement when recovering....
This recession started in the beginning of 2008 and we are now seeing some improvement in the jobs market (the last area to recover).....
The fact that Bush is out and Obama and the Dems are in, is irrelevant....the economic cycle is in fact holding up to its normal stats......
