has been to grow the number of federal employees. Drudge reported that there are the highest number of federal government employees of all time. In addition, the stimulus monies that were sent to the states were used to reduce their deficits, which means, the state government workers kept their jobs. As Rush reported, the states are running out of those funds now. That means that we will be hearing yet again about how the states are going to have to get rid of teachers, police, fireman and etc. I say, get rid of a whole crop of the non-emergency state government employees, and, keep the police and fireman.

… to bankroll their radical agenda. Nothing more or less. They are using the money to attempt to engineer a political environment favorable to the Socialist cause.

How much you wanna bet that the unemployment numbers mysteriously improve through this year going into November, as stimulus funds are allocated for infrastructure and government jobs?

Someone is pulling his strings. Who would most benefit from a crippled American economy? The Chinese, Soros, the Russians? Who knows who the puppeteer is but no one, not even Obama is this stupid. This is willful, it is purposeful, and it is deliberate. Our Republican house and senate members aren’t even in the fight either. Why else would BHO commit political suicide like this unless it’s to achieve some nefarious end? The budget is so outrageous that even some of the lefties are realizing this growth is unsustainable.

that this was all part of Obama’s master plan, myself. Whatwith all of the problems his agenda’s had lately, a good economy would have helped, and the now-infamous graph from Team Obama predicting unemployment would never have been published. This is just spin of the “we have everything under control” variety, IMO.

Hurry up and wait. Now they will make America suffer and use the slush fund to goose things closer to election time. Or until they get a 2nd stimulus to waste even more taxpayer money.

aside from the whole Budget Freeze gimmick as just a lame excuse to FORCE the Bush Tax Cuts to expire without being paid for (you don’t have to PAY for somehting that costs the Govt. $0, and in fact actually brings more into the Treasury, but that whole thing is another story) and to force what we’ve known all along would be the excuse for PAYGO dodge, scam, distortion, distraction, etc….

The next Stimulus (read: Dem. Money Laundering (PC excuses to $pend) plus “extent possible” language) package that they are already lying about as some “Jobs, jobs, jobs….” creation package, when it is a jobs killer, but what I want to focus on in this comment is the $3,000 (or is it $5,000 now, I just heard Cavuto discussing it with someone as a $5,000 Credit now – but either way it is NOT enough as a) Credit for Job Creation specifically. This will, of course, be the next new FRAUD to be committed by the Administration and Democrat business owners – as they will create a NEW JOB TITLE (declared as a new job), HIRE AN ALREADY EXISTING EMPLOYEE for the job while not refilling the job they left, IN ORDER TO STEAL THE CREDIT AND FALSELY ALLOW OBAMA TO CLAIM A SUPPOSED JOB that wasn’t really created. Meanwhile, of course, uncertainty over any/all other Taxes cause REAL Business owners to hold off on hiring, or worse needing to reduce Payroll, because costs continue to rise for them while sales lag (again, due to Consumer uncertainty over Personal Taxes to be waged AGAINST THEM by Obama going forth) and they have to downsize.

I know first hand this happens…. I’ve been part of the dodge…. We’ve had the same BS accounting of Jobs “CREATED” here in Michigan with an Employer…. A new building built across the street, with Govt. incentive funds, and those of us folks that MOVED ACROSS THE STREET to the new building were supposedly NEW JOB employees…. Oh please…. New jobs were created, technically speaking, on that piece of ground (NEW Address) that was previously vacant land, but… yes…. you know…. and unfortunately Govt of alll shapes, sizes, varieties, and controlled by ANY Party at any given time unfortunately have stooped to these BS tactics….. The reality, of course, was that there was probably about a dozen real jobs created, in Security Guards for the new building, everyone else were JOB TRANSFERS (about a couple hundred feet) -NOT- new jobs! These new jobs, I suspect, will just be new titles, with folks sitting in the exact same seats they always have with Obama calling them new jobs and the scamming organizations pocketing the $3-5,000 one time and nothing else happens.

All this leading to GREATER unemployement, not less…. Obama insisting on FAILed policies to be continued to be piled upon each other causing a greater slow-down than would otherwise have existed and prolonging the worsened situation they create, must be STOPPED DEAD!!!! The GOP, PARTY OF KNOW, must be loud and proud THE PARTY OF HELL NO!!!! – Republicans must be the Party of HELL NO [to Bigger Govt.] not the Party of SLOW[er Liberal Incremental-ism]

For the unemployment rate to come down just 1%, you need something like a consistent year of 5.0% GDP growth (which no economist is predicting, a rosy scenario would be 2-3% and no more job losses)

Also, a rising unemployment rate really creates a domino effect for continued job losses, so to “wait it out” for political reasons only puts you in a much deeper ditch.

It will be extremely difficult (if not impossible) for unemployment to be much under 9% when the 2010 or 2012 elections comes around, even with the stimulus cash flowing at full tilt.

Does this idiot, Obama, actually believe the unemployed will conviently forget that they were out of work long enough to re-elect his Democrat buds? Are the unemployed THAT ignorant or is Obama? My bet is that Obama is the ignorant one.

MY 11.2008 POST ON OBAMA-DEMS

My post November 2008: The cold angry radical surrounded by cold angry radicals…by June many Obama voters will be shocked and ashamed. Remember how well democrat Jimmah Carter (with demo congress) handled the economy? Well, look it up…a nitemare for our country. Do it now… before the “excuse train leaves the station”.
The most liberal administration in history will show you what secular socialism looks like…kooks on parade…the 57 million in the conservative resistance will watch…we warned you over and over these people are dangerous to any country… be very afraid…
now you will be scourged with radical socialism and its gonna hurt for a long long time.
==========
UPDATE OCTOBER 2009: The economic meltdown response is to want another “STIM” of borrowed megabillions. Current priorities are to reform pot laws and cry about Fox News. Tell us again that secular socialism is the way to go. Tell us. The nation is circling the drain and here we are…with J. Carter Obama and his band of arrogant kooks. The national scourging continues.
UPDATE DECEMBER 2009: Jobless rate 2x in a year (actually 17%), Obama approval tanks to 44% or less, dems hide bills from voters and run from mics, feds hiring at a high rate, debt 4x, chinese say cut spending, dems continue massive spending and plan huge taxes, HC bill exempting congress-federal employees is near passage, Obama keeps smiling and lying, lamestream media keeps changing demo-diapers, yada yada yada. Merry Christmas and a Happy Liberal New Year.

I have it!

It’s so he can bribe during the elections under the guise of “spending the stimulus money” and save the dems backsides!

Answer:
Impeach him and legislate that the rest of the stimulus money go back into the general fund to pay for existing programs!

Just a thought…

I understand there is a big gathering in Ft. Myers next Wed., 7pm, at the location where Obama praised Crist for supporting the porkulus, following which the 2 embraced. Among expected attendees Marco Rubio, 60 Minutes, a Chris Matthews producer, and various right of center groups. Some are calling it the “Hug” event.

doesn’t it make sense that the MORE of us that are UNemployed, the MORE of us lose our medical benefits, the MORE we support government run health care ??? !!!

By design, BO needs us to be DESPERATE so that we can depend on him.

This administration could have put conditions in place one year ago, to improve the job front.

Offering incentives that expire in one year, for small businesses in markets where there are NO CUSTOMERS (green), may make for good “sound bites”, to those who can be fooled about the great job this administration is doing ,

American’s going back to work is not in this POTUS’s best interest.

whether fed. or state.

DC and VA (outside of TX which is not in recession) are the only two places in the US gaining both pop. and jobs.

Part of the Obamanationcare’s goals was to get more than half the pop. and most of the middle class on gov’t support so the socialist agenda could keep expanding.

Whoever on here is saying he’ll support a Dem. you should remember no matter how displeasing the Rep. is we need Rep. numbers. Just look at ONE election and ONE Sen. from MA throwing the wrench in the DC monkey works, and they were ready to make us eat that healthcare bill no matter what.

All Reps. are not perfect, not wonderful moral examples, not always true to cons. principles, but they are not Dems. That’s the imp. point at this moment.

Even Collins and Snowe have held together in the Sen., and Snowe was heavily, heavily courted almost daily. They must have offered her 1/2 of Canada, and yet she did not cave. If Lierberman or Snowe had voted against cloture in the first vote, we would have avoided the precipice to begin with, and yet the Reps. held together in the Sen. Had Brown been there in Nov., we would never have gotten so far.

And as to money, consider the Obamanation cronies always knew the Bush tax cuts would lapse dumping another fortune in their greedy laps but also that Obamanation care was built to engender solar systems’ worth of monies up front before the rotten laws on actual administration kicked in at 2013. They are just interested in siphoning gadzillions out of us. The only good thing with the recession is tax revenues are down and are not likely to rise again soon.

Dem . office holder jobs. This was always obvious as soon as details about it came out last Spring. Something like 75% of the spending goes to Dem held districts. Tens of billions are directed to left-wing pressure groups. How any rational person could vote for a Democrat under any circumstances is beyond me. The best Democrat is worse than the worst Republican, bar none. No Rep. would vote to put Pelosi or Reid in leadership. All Dems. did. This alone should be enough proof.

We occasionally hear praise for Lieberman. Admittedly he does believe the USA should be defended and this is an eccentric position for a Democrat. But other than this he is a down the line left-winger with all other votes directed at the subversion of the Constitution and destruction of the Republic.

Our justifiable anger at some Reps for betraying the people who sent them to DC must not blind us to the Mortal Peril now facing the nation. We made common cause with Stalin, the worst tyrant in the world, to fight the Nazi menace. We can certainly put up with some RINOs to stop the Progressive juggernaut. RINOs can be dealt with in primaries as they present themselves. Any talk of 3rd parties or voting for Dems. only aids the Main Enemy.

numbers for his re-election. What a dog

to question the timing of the “Great Depression” in Sept 2008 to begin with?
