B.O. Says Everything's Good!

Last week B.O. said that the private sector is in good shape.



WHAT ROCK IS HE LIVING UNDER? I guess as President, he has no time to read the newspaper. Maybe he could ask one of his aides who DOES have time to watch what is REALLY happening in the private sector.

Or the troll that takes the troll bait every time the other troll makes a cast.

So many troll-types. So little time.

Was the news coverage of President Bush in a grocery store "trolling"?
Or are any troll threads that attack repubs OK, but only those which question President Obama and his awareness to be labelled as 'trolls".

So when a thread is posted negatively against BO or dems, it's a troll thread? And when anti-Rep links are posted without comment, it's a topic worthy of discussion? Hypocrisy.

Taking a read of the FULL quote in context makes the president's meaning pretty clear: Private sector growth is in positive territory, what's dragging things down is public sector job losses. Doesn't take a genius, what it takes is a desperate conservative willing to quote the president out of context in order to make a cheap shot point.

I believe, even in context,(4.3 million jobs had been added in the private sector in the last 27 months. ), Obama's statement still shows his ignorance of capitalism. 4.3 Million jobs is not enough--the job participation rate is still falling. His statement also betrays his desire to continually increase public sector hiring. Public sector employees must be paid by taxing the public sector jobs. Where else does the money come from? So Obama's "answer" to under-employment is to take ever more money from the private sector, and use that to hire voters in the public sector.
Mr. Obama needs some real world experience in the economy. I will vote in November to give hime that private sector experience.

Well what did you expect? It has already proven that Obama is a communist Muslim born in Kenya. Between memorizing the Koran and studying the works of Marx, Lenin, Trotsky he simply didn't have time to learn about capitalism. If you don't believe me just ask Larry about the anonymous email he received that proves it's true.

B.O. is indeed ignorant regarding capitalism, but not for any of the above made up reasons.

B.O. has never so much as run a Lemonade stand on his front lawn as a kid. He has NO executive experience whatsoever. If he would release his information we could even see where his college money came from and for sure it was NOT from him EARNING it, which is what capitalism is about. Taking handouts does NOT teach you about capitalism.

BTW, I think I know why he THINKS that "The Private Sector is doing fine." It's because honeywell convinced him that everyone was buying a THINGAMAJIG for their furnace.

Well there was just no demand for lemonade in Kenya so a lemonade stand just didn't make business sense.

Remind us again how the economy did when the great oil businessman George W. Bush was in power. How did this great business man leave the economy after eight years in charge?

If you had been paying attention, the President has already stated that he has repaid his student loans at a speech before college students this year. That's where the money came from. If you think a loan is a handout, then all of us with mortgages are on the dole as well.

To date, you still haven't responded to my query about which president you believe had sufficient business background who substantially improved the US economy or government spending situation. I still haven't heard what it is about a business background that is particularly beneficial to being president. The jobs are not directly comparable, yet some seem to think it is.
