OBAMA NAILS ASSESSMENT OF ECONOMY

Not really, I was just kidding; trying to give you hope.

obama struts around the country telling you how good things are and will be, while also telling you not to believe the naysayers, which is basically anyone that disagrees with him, the facts be damned.

Economists are naysayers.

A USA Today July 2010 survey of economists (“Economists’ optimism wanes”) found that 8 in 10 surveyed have downgraded their economic outlook, calling it “gloomier than April’s” outlook.

These same naysaying economic experts cite “lackluster job growth, a weak housing market, and a slowdown in factory output” as being the facts of obama’s economy.

obama says that “every economist who’s looked at it says that the Recovery act has done its job.”

Those folks who work at the FDIC (the federal bank deposit insurer guys) are naysayers.

This federal regulatory body has just closed its 103rd bank this year…compared with 64 at this same time in 2009.

Steve Forbes of Forbes magazine writes that “Obama is Clueless” (July 24, 2010).

He’s a major naysayer.

Michael J. Boskin, Professor of economics at Stanford University, writing in the Wall St. Journal (July 21, 2010) says that obama’s speeches on the economy are like “fish stories,” they come with “extreme exaggeration.”

Boskin says that not only are obama’s statements on the economy divorced from reality (well, I said that, not him) but they are divorced “from those of his own economic advisers” (the economics professor guy said this).

Those traitorous naysayers!

Bloomberg Business writer Caroline Baum is a naysayer with a job and a working mind.

She wrote that “Obama’s Stimulus Spin is an Embarrassment” (July 21, 2010).

The bureaucrats who work at the Bureau of Labor Statistics are also naysayers.

In July of this year these folks reported that 2.5 MILLION non-farm jobs have been lost since obama’s stimulus policy was passed…all of them in the private sector.

And finally, you and I are naysayers.

Katie Couric’s news station, CBS, found in a recent poll (July 13, 2010) that 8 in 10 naysayers polled believed the economy is bad…which is 5 points higher than the number of naysayers saying the same thing last month.

CBS’s poll also found that only 13% of Americans say that obama’s economic policies have helped them personally, the rest of you are all negative, doom and gloom naysayers and Joe Biden will be coming to make you better understand how things are really, really good with the economy.

CBS’s sister station on cable, CNN, also conducted a poll (April 1, 2010) and 48% of Americans say Republicans in Congress would do a better job of dealing with the economy than the likes of obama, Reid, Pelosi, Dodd, and Fwank would do…or have done…45% said these twits could do a better job…and they are.

Shame on CBS and CNN for being such naysayers when their political poster child has done so much for their ratings.

American Research Group’s July 2010 poll shows that 44% of Americans are naysayers as they feel the economy is getting worse. On a more personal note, ARG’s poll found that 40% of those polled say their household financial situations are getting worse.

Those selfish naysayers.

ARG’s poll found that 68% of Americans rate the economy as bad, very bad, or terrible.

These naysayers must be listening to FOX News.

obama’s “Main St.” economic plan does not seem to be impressing those who live on Main St.

BrainyQuote.com included this purported quote by economic guru obama: “A good compromise, a good piece of legislation, is like a good sentence; or a good piece of music. Everybody can recognize it. They say, ‘huh. It works. It makes sense.’”

Do you recognize it? Do you think it has made sense?

America’s majority says no.

You damned naysayers.
