  1. OMG!!!!! He wants to compare himself to Romney and say that Romney’s the one that hasn’t “spent time in the real world” ????!!!!!!

    Surely even the lib press corps is laughing at this?

  5. On January 28, 2009, the week following Obama’s nomination, the Fed owned $302 billion in U.S. Treasury securities. On April 25, 2012, the latest date reported, the Fed owned five and a half time that much in U.S. Treasury securities, or $1.668 trillion.*

    The $5,027,761,476,484.56 that the debt has increased during Obama’s presidency equals $16,043.39 for every one of the 313,385,295 people the Census Bureau now estimates live in the United States.

    At the close of business on Jan. 20, 2009, the day Obama was inaugurated, the federal government’s debt was $10,626,877,048,913.08, according to the U.S. Treasury. By the close of business on April 16, 2012—as many Americans were working to finalize their 2011 tax returns to meet an April 17 filing deadline—the debt had reached $15,654,638,525,397.64.

    The $5,027,761,476,484.56 in additional debt that the U.S. government has taken on during the 39 months that Obama has been president is more debt than the federal government accumulated in the first 219 years of the Republic.CBS!

    STFU, SCOAMF.

  6. And now, here’s an interesting follow-on article:
    http://campaign2012.washingtonexaminer.com/article/dems-obama-voters-dont-believe-economy-talk/593901

    Just a tidbit of the whole:

    Greenberg and Carville, showed several Obama campaign commercials to focus groups in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Several of the group members, who were “all independents or weak partisans and ticket-splitters” and included both Obama and McCain voters from 2008, became irritated when shown Obama ads touting economic improvement. They don’t see that improvement in their own lives, the report says, and they don’t believe Obama when he claims things are better.

    -and-

    “It’s like how things are getting better? Where?” asked one non-college-educated woman in Columbia, Ohio. “I don’t see it. Makes me mad.” Even Obama’s oft-made claim that he saved the auto industry angered some. “The auto industry spot, surprisingly, produces a lot of resentment….”

    -and-

    After extensive interviews with the groups, Greenberg and Carville conclude that Obama’s current campaign message — that he inherited a terrible economy but that now things are getting better — is disastrously wrong.

    -and-

    The consultants urge Obama to find a new economic message that appeals specifically to the stressed-out middle class.

    Good luck with that boyos!

  7. Obama compared Republicans to a person who orders a steak dinner and martini and then, “just as you’re sitting down, they leave, and accuse you of running up the tab.”…

    Oh yea I hate when that happens, and it just proves how intouch Obama is with all of us regular folks who have friends who order food walk out and say we ran up the tab… you know everyday stuff like that.

  9. Truth doesn’t matter here folks. Only thing that matters is that when the media pushes it, the majority will believe it.

  10. Where does BHO find his friends?

    None of my friends would do that to me.

    Okay, but let’s just suppose the people He knows are like that, let’s go with his thought….

    “just as you’re sitting down, they leave, and accuse you of running up the tab.”

    Well, if, after this mythical guy skips on the bill, you order yourself about five helpings of Lobster Newberg a couple of dozen bottles of Dom Pérignon, a liter of the best caviar, ten baked Alaskas, etc., and then tip some waitress named Pelosi more money than most people make in a year… yeah, your gonna be running up the tab.

  11. The ONLY thing he hasn’t blamed on Bush are the years of intelligence that led up to Laden’s capture………

    Sondra I’m sure he had another speech in his shirt pocket, you know, just in case the invasion failed taking the blame for the failure… right to Bushes lap!!!

    “Our landings in the Cherbourg-Havre area at Abbottabad have failed to gain a satisfactory foothold kill Bin Laden and I have withdrawn the troops. MyThe military’s decision to attack at this time and place was based upon the best information available. The troops, the air and the Navy did all that Bravery and devotion to duty could do just couldn’t get it done. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt it is mine alone Bushes.”

    If you have the time watch James Carville and his boss Bill Clinton. They seem to delight in taking ‘left-handed’ jabs and make slight political faux pas at Barack Hussein Kardashian’s expense.

    I love it when they eat their own.

  16. #6, Ironic in Denver: Even Obama’s oft-made claim that he saved the auto industry angered some. “The auto industry spot, surprisingly, produces a lot of resentment….” That’s because, while the GM/Chrysler bailout benefitted the UAW and other associated unions, the non-union subsidiaries like Delphi and their workers were royally shafted. More workers were hurt than were helped by the government bailout of the auto industry.

  20. His writers should be fired.
    They sound like high school essays. Bad ones.
    As to Carville, lies don’t bother that SOB, just losing.
