		<description>Nice for him to give all that money to AIG without strings, nice that they gave all the money to the banks without making a provision that it was to be used for LENDING. Nice for him to deny he knew anything about bonuses when he was actually on the other side making the arrangements. What a bunch of lies and coverups. Almost like having the Clintons back.</description>

		<description>Since when do liberals get so concerned about whether a provision will hold up to legal challenge? They aren&#039;t concerned about card check. They weren&#039;t concerned about the War Powers Act. AIG was in a defacto bankruptcy where extraordinary acts of the Government saved it, and it was insolvent. In those circumstances given that bankruptcy would have voided those contracts it isn&#039;t likely a court would have upheld those contracts, and given the fact that there is no basis for any reasonable belief that the bonuses were earned based upon performance they could also have been voided. If Geithner wasn&#039;t doing such damage to the economy, and was just damaging the credibility of the Obama administration and Obama himself, I&#039;d say keep it coming, don&#039;t resign. But Geithner appears to be the navigator of the HMS TitanObama</description>

If Obama can&#039;t:  make his Treasury nominations, read the bills he&#039;s pushing, buy the right kind of DVD&#039;s for PM Brown, how much attention is paying to what the Russians are doing?  That business about putting Russian bombers in Venezuela and Cuba--those were probes, designed to see how Obama would respond.  And how did he respond?  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8E_zMLCRNg&amp;feature=related&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Crickets chirping&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>Experience you can believe in!

No wonder Russia is rearming.  They see the US as they were in 1991.  They know they can rebuild, and the US won&#039;t and can&#039;t do anything to stop them.  Obama is proving every day why all the other leaders of nations really wanted him to be President.

It&#039;s the incompetence stupid!</description>

		<description>FUBAR!  That&#039;s what this administration is.  Imagine the damage he can do over the NEXT 60 days.  The outrage should really be over how he just spent another trillion dollars while everyone was busy being outraged over AIG.  Where is THIS trillion dollars going?  And who&#039;s going to be accountable for it?  My guess?  No one has read the bill and no one will be accountable.</description>

Obama struggles as communicator&lt;/strong&gt;
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0309/20234.html
(via HotAir)

&lt;strong&gt;Mixed messages&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
Obama’s message on the economy has been as volatile as the stock market itself. When he needed public support for his stimulus plan, he spoke in stark and gloomy terms.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
So once the stimulus passed — and criticism of his bummer message mounted — he shifted to a more optimistic take on the economy, at one point encouraging people to consider hopping back into the market. That was seen as too bright.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

 YOU DON&#039;T SAY????????
How could this be.
I mean Obama is like Jesus to the hollywood crowd and his followers say he is going to &quot;Change the World!!!!&quot;.

 Look at this example of strong,decisive leadership coming from &quot;the greatest administration since FDR,Lincoln,and JFK
all rolled into one:

&lt;strong&gt;

Hello......Hello.......Hello,
is there anybody in there.
Just nod if you can hear me,
is there anyone at all???????????????????????&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;

&quot;We are in the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression”
                            Barak Obama
                            Feb. 2009&lt;/blockquote&gt;


&lt;blockquote&gt;
“They’re (the economy)not as bad as we think they are now.”
                   Barak Obama
                   Mar. 2009 &lt;/blockquote&gt;



&lt;blockquote&gt;
White House Office of Management and Budget director Peter Orszag declared that &quot;fundamentally, the economy is weak.&quot;

economic adviser Christina Romer. When asked during an appearance on NBC&#039;s &quot;Meet the Press&quot; if the fundamentals of the economy were sound, she replied: &quot;Of course they are sound.&quot;
             Christina Romer (Obama Economic Advisor)
                     Mar. 2009&lt;/blockquote&gt;


&lt;blockquote&gt;
During the fall campaign, Obama relentlessly criticized his Republican opponent, Sen. John McCain, for declaring, &quot;The fundamentals of our economy are strong.&quot; Obama&#039;s team painted the veteran senator as out of touch and failing to grasp the challenges facing the country.
(At the time McCain made this statement,the Dow was over 11,000 and unemployment was a little over 5%.
When the Obama administration made their statement,the Dow was around 6,800 and unemployment was around 9%)
                  Barak Obama
                    Nov. 2008 &lt;/blockquote&gt;

 This is a liberals idea of doing things &quot;smarter&quot; and showing great leadership.

&quot;Yes We Can&quot; look like total idiots.




This was when Bush was President:

&lt;strong&gt;
Obama&#039;s trillions dwarf Bush&#039;s &#039;dangerous&#039; spending&lt;/strong&gt;
By Byron York
Chief political correspondent 2/24/09
http://www.dcexaminer.com/politics/Obamas-trillions-dwarf-Bushs-dangerous-spending.html

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Pelosi and Reid called Bush&#039;s budgets &quot;dangerous&quot; and &quot;unpatriotic,&quot; but with Obama, they&#039;ve changed their tune&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Back in 2006, when Democrats were hoping to win control of the House and Senate, party leaders worked themselves into a righteous outrage over the issue of out-of-control federal spending. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., called the Republican budget “irresponsible” and “unpatriotic” because it increased the amount of U.S. debt held by foreign countries. Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., accused Republicans of going on “an unprecedented and dangerous borrowing spree” and declared GOP leadership “the most fiscally irresponsible in the history of our country … no other president or Congress even comes close.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Now that the democrats are in control,deficits are &quot;Great&quot;:

&lt;strong&gt;
White House Budget Director Orszag: &quot;Elevated Deficits Are Beneficial&quot; &lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;During an economic downturn like we&#039;re experiencing the deficit gets elevated which is not only natural, it&#039;s beneficial because it helps bring the economy back up to the potential output level. In other words, the key problem we face right now is the gap between how much the economy could produce and how much it is producing. The whole point of the Recovery Act is to fill in that gap and part of that means a temporary elevated deficit.&quot;
Peter Orszag
White House Budget Director
February 26, 2009 
&lt;/blockquote&gt;


 I guess if liberals keep saying how &quot;smart&quot; they are,some suckers will believe it because it certainly does not show in their actions.</description>
