obama one big ass mistake America
Heck, let's go for the trifecta!
Since Obama took office 8 million jobs have been lost.

Not imaginary jobs like the administration counts for the "stimulus", but real, tangible jobs. Remember when the Democrats claimed that a million jobs being lost while Bush was President was the end of the world? Once again Obama outdoes Bush with eight times as many unemployed and the clock is still ticking for Obama. (Note also the sustained growth in employment from 2002-7 for President Bush, something the Democrats and MSM will never admit happened.)

Speaking of Obama "outdoing" Bush, I picked a fight with an uber-liberal the other day and he was blathering on about how Bush increased the national debt 154% - I think the figures he gave were from around three trillion to eight trillion. Wanting to make sure I had my facts right, I looked at the U.S. National Debt Check. According to the site (which I assume is relatively in the ballpark), we're close to twelve trillion now. Okay, it ain't 154% - but it's still four trillion in less than a year, whereas at least Bush had the decency to take eight years to rack up five trillion.

Yet when I pointed this out to the liberal, he pointedly ignored me and continued to rail on about how Obama was going to fix the economy. Pft.

A Random Reagan Quote

"The Founding Fathers knew a government can't control the economy without controlling people. And they knew when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose."
