Bank of America relesased two dire estimates of the economy going into 2012; it is not good news for Obama re-eleciton hopes.Show me one report where it says if there's a new President in 2012 that it's going to be economic prosperity???? The last report I have seen from Economicist who are neutral they are predicting the U.S to be out of the misery by late 2013 or 2014 REGARDLESS of who is in office- so this isn't bad news for Obama- it's just you trying to paint a false picture- the shit has been fucked up since 2007 to 2008 and every economist I have heard point to the Bush years as the root call.
1) No debt deal and a downgrade in ratings from the other agencies;
2) Continued weak job creation due to federal cutbacks and lackluster government spending...
As Obama has confirmed, Americans are worse off since Obama was sworn into the Presidency !
Only 455 days left........and counting down !

As for the bad economy, I truly believe we would be in the same situation no matter who was president. Let me ask you this. If McCain had been elected do you think the whole bank crisis, sub-prime failure and almost collapse of US auto industry would have happened? Yes or No. Originally Posted by BigLouie

Question for you Whirlway- should the leaders of France, Germany, U.K, Japan, Greece, and Canada all not seek re-election- last I heard those nations have their own serious economic issues.
Odds are Obama will get re-elected in 2012- I think now he has all the teachers, fire fighters and cops vote since not one Republican voted on a bill in the jobs plan that would create and maintain jobs in those areas- way to go GOP and and all the GOP contenders except Paul thinks the troops shouldn't come home this year but rather stay in Iraq- a war that cost nearly 500 million tax payer dollars day- wow that idea will get the GOP some votes and make them popular.
Can you imagine this during a debate in 2012:
Barack Obama: I am proud that I stood by my promise and all the troops were home from Iraq by 12-31-2011.
GOP Nominee: "President Obama you failed again- we should have kept troops in Iraq much longer- in fact when and if I win this election I am going to send troops back to Iraq so we can finish this war."
Hmmmm Whirlway- which statement you think would get the louder applause? Originally Posted by wellendowed1911

The ugly, sour grapes Republicans were too concerned with trying to make a mockery of him, and showing their true racism at every turn, they did nothing and even went so far as to stall any effort he had made, so as to set his progress behind schedule a good yr to yr.and a half on any big issues he attempted! It's a shame, and especially when we have seen what their "best and brightest" have to offer, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachman, come on people, really? REALLY? YOU COULD LOOK YOUR GRANDPARENTS IN THE FACE AND TELL THEM THESE TWO MENTAL MIDGETS CAN SOLVE THE COMPOUND ISSUES WE HAVE AT FOOT IN THIS ECONOMY AND ABROAD???
My only issue with President Obama is that he did not cease playing nice with these ass hats sooner!!! Originally Posted by SamanthaSinclair

WW there's a slogan going around as stated by Bill Maher: "The new racism is to deny that there is racism" Originally Posted by wellendowed1911If this is all about his race then how do you explain Herman Cain's popularity. I am sick of idiots constantly accusing people who disagree with most of Obama's policies as racist. Can't you acknowledge that just maybe we could not care less about his skin color and that we believe his economic policies are disasterous.
So you're now sponsoring links that agree that Federal spending creates jobs!!! What's next? You going to learn supply and demand?
2) Continued weak job creation due to federal cutbacks and lackluster government spending...
