Pretty pathetic numbers, unless you're a 1% er. CPI up 12%? Real weekly wages up 0.3%? How does that show increasing prosperity? Home ownership down? And you're proud of that, Zanybore? What about black unemployment? Where are those numbers? Originally Posted by CuteOldGuyYou have 0 comprehension of what it takes to turn an economy around after the COLOSSAL MESS he inherited. I do very well and some would say I'm in the top 5% ;-) but let me say that you need to keep things in perspective. No one said the record was perfect but what is the comparison to?
Obama's done an outstanding job of keeping us in our homes and gainfully employed while Republicans treat him like the Romans, scribes and pharisees treated Jesus. Obama's making the sacrifice on behalf of us all. Even those who claim to be of the party of religious family values and religious purity yet live on a hooker site. Go figure religious hypocrites you are just like the morons that handed Jesus over to Pontius PilateI think I'd go with Barabbas, again...though I appreciate Obama's sacrifices each time he takes over an entire golf course, since that helps keep me in my home!

Executives of fortune 500 companies are padding their paychecks and/or sitting on CASH. The employees further down on the organization chart aren't seeing it in terms of pay raises. Third quarter profits are up and that is why the institutional traders were hitting the buy button all week. The DJIA is over 17,500 points. This gain is due to a lot more than just a handful of companies buying back their own stock. If corporate profits were down 184%, then you would have something to complain about.

You're proud of the rich getting richer, and the poor, especially African American poor getting screwed, fine. I noticed Zanybore hasn't provided any numbers on how much better blacks are faring under Obama. I wonder why? Oh yeah. THEY AREN'T!
