He is going to go the way of all fools who work for them. They eliminate them after they are through with them.Helen----- Original Message -----From: JMTo: BeSent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 11:01 PMSubject: Obama says second fiscal stimulus not needed yet | Politics | Reuters
I live in a town whose ONLY newspaper (bird cage liner) reports the latest maple syrup bucket that was stolen, the newest crafts from the senior citizens center sale, the big petunia sale at the farmers market, and how the economy in town is GREAT due to a restaurant that's opened that you need a treasure map to find --and I KNEW that this 'stimulus' was a JOKE. Look at the millions wasted building fences around dry lakes, guardrails around empty space etc...OH and here in my town the economy has really been JUMP STARTED with ( I counted them) 13 men 1 women (holding flag) paving a half mile of road (leading to Vermont) that was the ONLY section of road in the area that DIDN'T need paved!!
Recall, that the unemployment rates WAS going to reach 8.2% IF this stimulus wasn't done, QUICK. Let's see, now (article below) they're (Foggy Bottom Buffoons-White House) going to wait and SEE if things get worse, they're just not sure. Well how the hell could they know; when we're given blow by blow "news" on theater DATES, shopping in Paris, (Michele - Mom- Kiddies who flew over separately to waste GAS)downtown London shut down so Michele and kids (Mom) could shop, go to see Lion King, meet the Queen yada yada. In case the President isn't aware -- the unemployment is really more like 15% and in many places 20-30%.
Then there's the Awful blow up in Iran /with front pg news on a young woman, shot by a man (not told by news stations - you have to read European news), who whipped by (masked) on a motorcycle / and phew, a photographer was on hand (with news here reporting that NO news reporters etc were permitted in Iran), to get this out over the world wire service in minutes. Everything here (USA) stopped, as if this woman killed was the only death in all the world/ with the President lamenting how a government should no be practicing violence towards its own citizens (NO the military in Iran were not shooting anybody! ). The President has somehow missed the FACT that most likely more (mentally ill - poor ) people were killed/injured by tasers here, than what's happened in Iran / Bonus March/Kent State/Ruby Ridge/ Waco/ Trade Agreement Protests (Miami - Seattle) --or how about Rachel Corrie/ huh! That young college student MADE NO front page news - mowed down by an armored Catepillar (made in USA - company praised by Bush/Obama) as she valiently and courageously tried to stop a doctors' home from being bulldozed under (for spite).
NOT ONE WORD for a real HEROINE. Hmm with the states all going belly up - thousands MORE losing their jobs daily - unemployment running out - well gosh, why don't we all go on a date to the theater!! Nothing's changed - same old same old, criminal indifference. OH, except that SS receipients will NOT see a cost of living increase BUT Congress gave themselves a 7% raise for office materials. JM

Obama is correct when he says,""At that point, nobody understood what the depth of the recession was going to look like. ... It's not surprising then that we missed the mark in terms of our estimates of where unemployment would go."
I'm surprised that that he even knows how to walk and chew gum at the same time. This fool is in way over his head.
