Im sure they will be touting the 8.6% unemployment rate today, but as usual its a shellgame
300K Just completely gave up.
caught a lil bit of that clinton/obama press conference about that energy jobs thing
sounds good in theory but why not have done it 3 yrs ago when he got in office
anything he does now is gonna be viewed as him trying to do things that make him look good so he gets re-elected

Exactly
I bet the remaining portion of GM will be sold back to the private sector early next year. We already took a 24 billion dollar loss on it. He wouldnt have it sold back in October.

Its all fuzzy logic by the administration. The 120K jobs added were mostly seasonal jobs for Christmas and there were job losses in construction. Manufacturing jobs were anemic at best. There were also hundreds of thousands who left the job force completely thru retirement.

That would be the provision of the law, called the medical loss ratio, that requires health insurance companies to spend 80% of the consumers’ premium dollars they collect—85% for large group insurers—on actual medical care rather than overhead, marketing expenses and profit. Failure on the part of insurers to meet this requirement will result in the insurers having to send their customers a rebate check representing the amount in which they underspend on actual medical care.

how bad do you think the economy would have looked under W if the false home market boom was exposed!? It was all a ruse he and his admin were using every year of his tenure, along with greenspan's constant artificial lowering of rates
I, like 99% of the public, are not so naive to think we're coming out of this recession bc of this month's report, especially tied to normal factors of the season. Yet it seems some just go one way with these reports, only utilizing them to fit their claims versus looking at them objectively.

The housing bubble was being predicted as far back as 2006. Peter Schiff and Gerald Celente were called batshit crazy as the cheap money was doled out to unqualified people and real estate prices were skyrocketing at an alarming rate. Throw in Fannie/Freddie backstopping and guaranteeing these mortgages and kaboom.
Look what Bernanke is doing QE2/QE3 continuing having rates artifically low. The federal reserve doiling out 7.7 trillion to banks. Now we have to borrow money from Chin a to bailout the eurotrash. Think we will get paid back? Well you know damn well the Reds will want their money back with interest.

Fannie/Freddie was selling these shit mortgages to Wall st and the big banks and these were given AAA ratings. There was talk about reforming those GSE's but that was shitcanned
Anyone that didnt know that it was a bubble was idiotic. Theres no way possible a hose that was bought for 300k could nearly double in a year or 2. The basics were not in place.
Same thing with the tech bubble, stocks trading at prices not relative to their earnings.
In the end everybody who participated from the mortgage brokers to consumers were all living in a fantasy land.

Either you're trolling or you have zero idea what anything I posted means, or what this discussion is even about. Let's put it this way: people who have been unemployed for so long they stop looking is not a good thing, and it's not "leveling" anything off. This country literally almost went insolvent less than 6 months ago, NOTHING has been done about it, and you're talking about right vs. left. That will certainly fix things when the currency hyper-inflates and the economy crumbles, at least you can believe "Well that was the other side that did that."
Here's the truth, you all did it.

It's not like this deficit is going anywhere any time soon, so do it right looking at the long term implications of policy, versus trying to destroy anything your opponent does in order to get him out at the expense of us all.

1) NOW you're comparing his numbers against his own shitty numbers, the point you made previously that I was answering was that he was better than the last 8 years, which for this specific number he is not. Incidentally part of my point is that it doesn't matter WHO is in office, it matters that they're they're doing the right things. Clinton did, Bush didn't Obama isn't.
2) See my first post above, this is not a real 1.5% gain. The total # of people was reduced, which artificially increases the percentage and really puts a dent in this whole "leveled off" idea you have. If 300,000 people give up trying because the have no hope those 300,000 people are not suddenly independently wealthy, they're still in the same bad situation they were in before, they just aren't being counted anymore.

1. Wrong. Reread MY post. There was an increasing trend in the unemployment rate that started under Bush. Obama took office in 09. The numbers are flat for 09-10 and decrease for 2011. That is what I mean by leveled off.
2. And if the decrease is due to factoring out the long term unemployed, it still means the rate is about flat (or leveled off).

Why do you assume that Everything W did I agree to? I was against all bailouts from TARP to Detroit.
Obamas policy of Keynesian economics did not work. This administration has thrown good money after bad and the results have been proven as a failure. A net loss of jobs
Not once did I assume you were for "everything W did". I have read many times you hated anything W did that tied into any strategy Obama continued or even worked with. The main question would be, which came first?
As for claiming it didn't work bc there was a net loss of jobs, funny. How is it you think awful trends not only stop immediately after years of terrible policy, but should reverse and be a net gain in less than a term, much less years after? It has often been argued, quite thoroughly and effectively, that if not for the bailouts we'd be in something that much more closely resemble a second depression and a much worse economy/job loss number. It's not so concrete to just say NET LOSS and you know it. I love how about 2 years of "Keynesian economics" is a good sample size to reverse years of futility with our economy. Especially since spending was all but halted before the full plan was fully implemented (a key part of the plan, not a spending freeze at the worst f'n time), the debt ceiling debacle play and so much more all but put the plan on hold or worse in an effort to stop any positive effects over time. It makes no sense to squeeze spending at that time, and most either understand this...just the repubs want it bc they can claim terrible results with the fix to the problems they created. The GOP is good at this too, claim gov suck, make it suck, a dem comes in to clean the mess under shit times, and they get back in power to fuck it up all over again.

fdr's really?
Morgenthau was commenting on an economy in the fucking 30s for fuck's sake, and even here you leave out much of the story. He had other points in his conclusions that go completely against your beliefs.
In 1934, when William H. Woodin resigned because of poor health, Roosevelt appointed Morgenthau Secretary of the Treasury (an act that enraged conservatives). Morgenthau was an orthodox economist who opposed Keynesian economics and disapproved of some elements of Roosevelt's New Deal.
Morgenthau believed in balanced budgets, stable currency, reduction of the national debt, and the need for more private investment. The Wagner Act regarding labor unions met Morgenthau’s requirement because it strengthened the party’s political base and involved no new spending. Morgenthau accepted Roosevelt’s double budget as legitimate — that is, a balanced regular budget, and an “emergency” budget for agencies, like the Works Progress Administration (WPA), Public Works Administration (PWA) and Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), that would be temporary until full recovery was at hand. He fought against the veterans’ bonus until Congress finally overrode Roosevelt’s veto and gave out $2.2 billion in 1936. In the 1937 "Depression within the Depression," Morgenthau was unable to persuade Roosevelt to desist from continued deficit spending. Roosevelt continued to push for more spending, and Morganthau promoted a balanced budget. In 1937, however, Morgenthau successfully convinced Roosevelt to finally focus on balancing the budget through major spending cuts and tax increases; Keynesian economists have argued that this new attempt by Roosevelt to balance the budget created the Recession of 1937.[7] On November 10, 1937, Morgenthau gave a speech to the Academy of Political Science at New York's Hotel Astor, in which he noted that the Depression had required deficit spending, but that the government needed to cut spending to revive the economy. In his speech, he said:[8]
"We want to see private business expand. … We believe that one of the most important ways of achieving these ends at this time is to continue progress toward a balance of the federal budget."
His biggest success was the new Social Security program; he reversed the proposals to fund it from general revenue and insisted it be funded by new taxes on employees. Morgenthau insisted on excluding farm workers and domestic servants from Social Security because workers outside industry would not be paying their way.[9] He questioned the value of the deficit spending that had not reduced unemployment and only added debt:[10]
"We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work. And I have just one interest, and if I am wrong … somebody else can have my job. I want to see this country prosperous. I want to see people get a job. I want to see people get enough to eat. We have never made good on our promises. … I say after eight years of this Administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started. … And an enormous debt to boot."[11]
To reduce the deficit he argued for increased taxes, particularly on the wealthy.
"We have never begun to tax the people in this country the way they should be..... I don't pay what I should. People in my class don't. People who have it should pay."[11]

One of our benevolent god king job creators points out how our benevolent god king job creators don't actually create jobs:
http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-12-06/raise-taxes-on-rich-to-reward-true-job-creators-nick-hanauer.html
That’s why I can say with confidence that rich people don’t create jobs, nor do businesses, large or small. What does lead to more employment is the feedback loop between customers and businesses. And only consumers can set in motion a virtuous cycle that allows companies to survive and thrive and business owners to hire. An ordinary middle-class consumer is far more of a job creator than I ever have been or ever will be.
Theory of Evolution
When businesspeople take credit for creating jobs, it is like squirrels taking credit for creating evolution. In fact, it’s the other way around.
It is unquestionably true that without entrepreneurs and investors, you can’t have a dynamic and growing capitalist economy. But it’s equally true that without consumers, you can’t have entrepreneurs and investors. And the more we have happy customers with lots of disposable income, the better our businesses will do.
That’s why our current policies are so upside down. When the American middle class defends a tax system in which the lion’s share of benefits accrues to the richest, all in the name of job creation, all that happens is that the rich get richer.
And that’s what has been happening in the U.S. for the last 30 years.
Since 1980, the share of the nation’s income for fat cats like me in the top 0.1 percent has increased a shocking 400 percent, while the share for the bottom 50 percent of Americans has declined 33 percent. At the same time, effective tax rates on the superwealthy fell to 16.6 percent in 2007, from 42 percent at the peak of U.S. productivity in the early 1960s, and about 30 percent during the expansion of the 1990s. In my case, that means that this year, I paid an 11 percent rate on an eight-figure income.

How is it trick accounting methods? Those are what people pay for fucking t-bills; that is an accurate representation of monetary inflation. People can go on TV and say whatever the fuck they please, but the people actually going out and buying up t-bills are showing quite clearly that there's absolutely no concern for inflation, otherwise they'd be demanding a larger return. Even a 30 year t-bond is still under prime; where is the inflation other than a bunch of goldbugs saying there is inflation? There's actual fucking proof that inflation isn't a major concern and you want to talk about trick accounting methods and some youtube of a guy with a fivehead.

It has nothing to do with someone peddling gold. When the dollar loses its value, commodity prices rise as a hedge to a weaker dollar.
If commodity prices rise on account of the devaluation of the dollar, why don't the t-bills represent that? Investors would be able to demand a higher return.
It's almost as if there's something else involved for the price of commodities to rise. Unfortunately people with fiveheads aren't going to be able to peddle their wares on cable news if they're telling people that we're running out of resources, though.

Posting a link to a madman's blog or an over the top conservative think tank holds as much water as me posting a link tweet from Wiener about his own innocence.
You are really obsessed with Fox news. Im sure youre going to have that DVR ready for each segment. How dare I say something about the president, send me to GITMO. In his almost 3 years as one he has fucked up royally. I dont need to provide any link to that, the proof is in his record. The short term gains are far outweighed on his abysmal failures
A majority of my links are from politco, Yahoo news which gets their feeds from the AP. Hardly right wingers. My F&F links for the most part have come from CBS news which sure as hell isnt the sae as National Review
I want to see your outrage next time theres a video clip from the left wing crooks and liars site embedded or when someone posts an article from Paul Krugman

Holy shit man you are slow. First off, I almost never watch Fox. The only time I see it is when it makes actual news bc it's showing false footage or making shit of inane things like thanking God in a Thankgiving address being absent. I bring it up bc it tied in, simple and sweet, but just keep up the act as if it didn't and it isn't relevant at all.
Next, I'm not asking for a link now and you KNOW IT! Holy shit you are maddening. If you don't get the point at this point I don't care. Seeing that you did your complete direction change of "send me to Gitmo"/"how dare I say something about the presiden" proves you just can't follow and my points about you. Not once did I ever say you can't or shouldn't, but you tried to act like you didn't mind the vacation, then posted the opposite to contradict yourself in that very post.
And finally, you ever notice the crooks and liars vids only replay clips from Fox or other media outlets? They may have a misleading title here and there, but most of them are just vids of someone saying something stupid or damming on Fox or even other major news networks, like Cheney on CNN. Kind of kills your other argument, since they just let you see the reports and one is left to take them for their own worth.

First paragraph of your link:
A key goal enunciated by the President-Elect concerning the American Recovery and Reinvestment
Plan is that it should save or create at least 3 million jobs by the end of 2010. For this reason, we
have undertaken a preliminary analysis of the jobs effects of some of the prototypical recovery
packages being discussed. Our analysis will surely evolve as we and other economists work further
on this topic. The results will also change as the actual package parameters are determined in
cooperation with the Congress. Nevertheless, this report suggests a methodology for ensuring that
the package contains enough stimulus that we can have confidence that it will create sufficient jobs
to meet the President-Elect’s goals

Did you know there is a 'printer' that needs to be put into government? And even this title wasn't confirmed.
The holding of appointments from a vote is meant to stop bad appointments, not to stop the function of government.
We've reached the point where the public has noticed that McConnell & Boehner have no intention of letting this President do something as simple as appointing judges or professional staff.
I wouldn't be surprised if the economy continues to recover if November 2012 is very bad for the GOP.

People seem to think if this were a liberal gov doing this to Bush the left would stand behind the gov. That might be true but the real truth is no dem gov or sen would actually do anything like this in public to make a scene and disrespect our president.

I agree Im just saying that in private Im sure they have heated arguments. Just like the goalie not going to the white house. He has every right to not like Obama or agree with his policies. But where he was wrong is these meetings arent meant to be political but our president honoring a national sport championship.

"A patchwork of immigration laws is not the answer and will only create further problems in our immigration system," Attorney General Eric Holder said in a news release.
