1.More than 6.7 million more Americans have been plunged into poverty since Obama became President.
2.Real household income is down 5%
3. Consumer prices are up 10.2%
4. Total federal debt is up 58%
5. Gasoline prices are up 82%
6. Food stamp recipients up 49%

The number of persons living in poverty also worsened again in 2012, according to the most recent Census figures.
8. As of last year, 46,496,000 persons lived in households with income below the official poverty line, an increase of nearly 6.7 million since 2008 and 249,000 since 2011. The total poverty rate remained unchanged in 2012 at 15 percent of the total U.S. population. So for the second straight year, the poverty rate was 1.8 points higher than it was in 2008.

and you would tie the economic issues entirely and solely to the president?

after perusing the op i've gleaned that you aren't open to discussion, that you are just another doomsday rightwinger that believes america is going to end because we dared to elect a democrat as president.
big on wailing and gnashing of teeth but low on critical thought or real insight.
prove me wrong.

You seem unable to process information.
And you're either very slow, or childishly claiming not to understand posts that eminently clear.
In either case, I'll wait for others with more ability.

poor moronic left-wing crybabies. they don't realize Obama's record of failure speaks for itself. the lack of critical thought is on the loony left. newsflash for left-wing losers; record welfare and food stamps isn't "forward progress"

you wail and moan about 'the fix' we're supposed in, for all intents and purposes blaming it on the president and by extension the people that voted for him.
you presume that these people must be ignorant and fools, although you don't do anything to corroborate that point of view.
further, when pressed to describe what you feel is 'the fix' you talk about economic factors, but you don't bother to think about what the cause of those factors are, or what you would have expected the president to do about them.
so yes, i stand by my initial assessment. you are just another right wing doomsdayer, repeating what you hear on talk radio and fox news without giving it real critical thought.

i don't disagree that that's not 'forward progress,' however those two metrics are not the sum total of the economy, nor is it possible or even responsible to place the blame for those two statistics solely and completely at the current president's feet.
Came across this quote in my local paper....and could not trace down the actual source....
Supposedly:
CZECH PRAGUE NEWSPAPER ARTICLE --
An article in the Prague newspaper, Prager Zeitungon:
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.
The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their President."
snopes.com: Václav Klaus on Barack Obama
Although possibly mis-attributed, the veracity of the quote is undeniable.
One hears an echo of Milton Friedman's sentiment.....
I do not believe that the solution to our problem is simply to elect the right people. The important thing is to establish a political climate of opinion which will make it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing. Unless it is politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing, the right people will not do the right thing either, or if they try, they will shortly be out of office.
Who's to blame?
Had it not been the willing lever-pulling of so many benighted individuals, we wouldn't be in the fix we are now.

you said it was undeniably a legit quote, when in fact it could be a blithering neo-Nazi jacking off in a basement to a picture of Eva Braun with one hand and typing with another.
but have a nice night in whatever fantasy world you occupy, chic.
Why would anyone have to go all the way to the Czech Republic to find someone with Obama Derangement Syndrome,
when you have, for starters, USMB?
and you would tie the economic issues entirely and solely to the president?

Why bring them up if you're not claiming cause and effect? So since you're claiming cause and effect,
prove it. One by one. All thirteen.

Somehow we have 30 governors who are Republicans to 20 Democrats, have had 5 presidents who were Republican since 1970 to 3 Democrats, and a GOP that boasts that it is more in-tune with America. This November sets up for the GOP to take the Senate and increase it's lead in the House just fine.
Yet who gets blamed for every problem under the sun. Democrats.
Surely the GOP has done something to contribute to the state of affairs in the nation...right?
Post #26 is for you, too.
Read and learn.
Nothing you write is worth reading.
As opposed to Romney and RYAN? Of course.It's great to be alive an living in America today isn't it?
Where freedom of speech abounds.
Of course whoever wrote this is completely wrong, and we will continue to prove them wrong as well.
So.....you'd vote for him again, right?
and you would tie the economic issues entirely and solely to the president?
