This will illustrate how badly Obama has screwed things up with his Keynesian economic policies. In a speech delivered to a labor union convention in September of 2009, Barack Obama said the following:
“All in all, many middle-class families will see their incomes go up by about $3,000 because of the Recovery Act, helping them get back much of what they've lost due to this recession.”
The Recovery Act? That was Obama’s $850 billion dollar stimulus job that failed to stimulate. We were told it would create jobs. Now, two years later, the Obama junta can only weakly mew that it “saved” jobs …. We’re so impressed. So, two years and $800+ billion later, how did it REALLY turn out?
According to a Sentier report using Census data, the median American household income has actually fallen during the “recovery.” “Real income fell by 3.2 percent during the recession. And during the recovery it went down by 6.7 percent.” So “income has declined twice as much in the recovery as in the recession itself.”
Oops. Obama says that the stimulus act is going to raise middle class incomes by about $3,000 per household --- and those incomes have fallen by 6.7%. Who’s fault is this? Need you ask? It’s Bush’s fault, of course!
Now just in case you’re one of those Americans who haven’t bought into this “Bush’s fault” horse crap, take a look at some of Obama’s initiatives and see if we can start to form an understanding as to just why government spending and increased regulation hasn’t been the “stimulus” he promised:
Stimulus – Failed
Cash for Clunkers – Failed
Mortgage Relief – Failed
ObamaCare – Failed
Dodd-Frank – Failed
And on top of this record spending and increased regulation he wants to add … tax increases?
Go ahead folks. Support this incompetent leftist in his bid for reelection. Incompetent? Have you ever taken a look at his record as a community organizer in Chicago? We haven’t found a record of one single community organizing initiative championed or led by Barack Obama in Chicago that showed any lasting positive results. He was as much of a failure there as he is as our president.
Support Obama – then vote for him – and tell your children how you played such a huge role in destroying any chance they may have had for a lifestyle any better than the one they’re experiencing now.

BULLSH*T LETTER FROM OBAMA CORRUPTOCRAT IN FLORIDA.
Here is a recent letter sent to constituents in Florida from Obama puppet, Senator Bill Nelson.
"Dear Friends,
The right to vote is, and always has been, at the foundation of our democracy. But this fundamental right is under serious attack right now, in Florida and more than a dozen other states. Many believe a handful of super-rich conservative activists are behind an orchestrated effort to keep millions of seniors, younger voters and minorities from casting ballots next year.
Whether or not that’s true, a civics teacher at New Smyrna Beach High School in Florida was on the receiving end of just such an attack last month. The teacher, Jill Cicciarelli, ran afoul of Florida’s new election law while helping some of her students pre-register to vote.
I have met with her and some of her students, and it’s no surprise they’re not happy with the state’s new voting law. Neither is their local supervisor of elections, who under the law was required to report them to state authorities. Volusia County Supervisor of Elections Ann McFall says parts of the law are egregious and unenforceable.
So, it’s not just me who thinks this law is aimed at suppressing the vote. Look at what informed editorial writers have also had to say: The Orlando Sentinel said the new law “amounts to… ripping apart election laws” and “weakening democracy.” The Tampa Tribune said this bill “isn't fooling anybody. It's not about clean elections.” And Florida Today called it an “assault on the most cherished of American rights.”
In a nutshell, the Florida law reduces the number of days for early voting from 14 to eight and exposes people who register others to vote to harsh penalties even for innocent mistakes. That’s why the widely respected League of Women Voters has abandoned its voter registration drives in Florida after 72 years.
I wrote Gov. Rick Scott a letter last month asking him to support a revamping or repeal of the law. I also wrote U.S. Sen. Richard Durbin, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution, to ask that we conduct a congressional investigation to see if Florida’s law was part of a plan that led to similar voting law changes in more than a dozen other states this year. And I have asked the Justice Department to look into who’s behind these changes."
*****************************************************************
Bill, you say the right to vote is at the foundation of our democracy. But we are not a democracy in case you aren't aware of it. We are a Republic...as in Republican. We don't believe the scare tactics being put out there by the DNC any more. You and your party's miserable record of destroying our economy speaks for itself.
We need to work for Tea Party Republicans to gain control of the Senate, as they did with the House, and end Harry Reid's reign as Majority Leader. Floridians want policies that empower job creators and get the government out of our daily lives. Obama and his Democrat puppets, including you, want to gain more control over our lives and increase government regulations.
You say many believe a handful of super-rich conservative activists are behind an orchestrated effort to keep millions of seniors, younger voters and minorities from casting ballots next year. What a bunch of hooey! Where do you dig up these people that you use as examples?
During your four decades as a career politician, you voted for billions in tax hikes, pork-laden bills, Obamacare, amnesty, and massive spending. It's time to retire you and your fellow career Obamacrats and get this country back on track.
Why don't you do Floridians, and the country, a great patriotic favor and retire now instead of waiting until next year to get booted out. And while you were writing fellow Obama crony, Dick Durbin, did you remember to ask him about producing documents to help investigate the Solyndra Scandal? The Fast and Furious scandal? How about the millions in bonuses being paid to FNMA and Freddie Mac while those agencies continue to lose billions...what are you doing about that? Why don't you tell us your opinions on Eric Holder? Why are you so silent about that corrupt AG?
I think more than ever we need George LeMieux's voice and votes in the Senate.

THIS IS HOW OBAMA "CREATES" THOSE FICTITIOUS JOBS
November 9, 2011
Jobs Created by the Stroke of a Pen
By Bill Tatro
11/8/2011
When it comes to jobs, it all comes down to this: For years, we all thought it was small business that was the heart and soul of the U.S. economy.
Most people understood that it was the private sector that created the real jobs – sustainable jobs that were the building blocks for people’s lives, and consequently, the foundation for our country’s solid future.
Then, along comes Barack Obama, who firmly, and I am ardently convinced, believes the public sector is the real job creator.
Everything from shovel ready to green energy has been tried by this administration in order to change the path of rising unemployment, to no avail.
Now, however, the truth can be told.
The real job creator is neither the public nor the private sector.
Rather, the real job creator is a single bean-counter who works in a small room with a green eyeshade pulled over his head at the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
He’s the person who overlays the Birth/Death (B/D) statistics on all monthly jobs reports. Most people think the B/D is simply a measurement of how many workers lived or died during the month.
In reality, the B/D is the approximate number of new businesses created with new employees netted against the businesses that closed and the people who lost their jobs. This statistic is overlaid against the actual number of workers either hired or fired. During prior administrations, this B/D number was plus-or-minus a few thousand.
The Obama administration has taken the B/D to an entirely new art form, with the plus-or-minus becoming hundreds of thousands.
It seems they thought nobody would notice, and guess what?
They were right.
The latest monthly jobs report shows 80,000 new jobs created.
The Birth/Death overlay was plus 103,000, which means the country actually lost 23,000 jobs.
But have no fear, with a phantom jobs report nobody really noticed, least of all the mainstream media.
Thus, when books are written about this chapter in American history, recognition for job creation will not be given to the small or large business entrepreneurs, nor the President or his political cronies.
Rather, all the praise will be given to that diligent, ever-present bureaucrat, who, with a wave of his magic pencil created 42% of all jobs reported in 2011.
Hallelujah!
Thank goodness for the BLS and the Birth/Death model.
It may not be real, but it sure looks good on paper and it certainly sounds great on the nightly news.

OBAMA'S GREAT RECOVERY SUMMER: WHAT GOOD TIMES NOW!
Kick back with Andrew Klavan and enjoy the roaring, soaring, constitution ignoring days of Obama's Recovery Summer. It's sunny. It's funny. But I'm out of work honey. With unemployment over 9%, what isn't there to love? At least it isn't the grim old days of George W. Bush when unemployment was below 6% and General Petraeus was leading a surge.
What a great summer! At least it was for him!

WHICH A-HOLE IS THE BIGGER LIAR: OBAMA OR PELOSI?
Today's Special Quote: “After years of historic deficits, this new Congress will commit itself to a higher standard: pay as you go, no new deficit spending. Our new America will provide unlimited opportunity for future generations, not burden them with mountains of debt.” — Nancy Pelosi during her gavel acceptance speech, January 2007
By the end of her tenure as the nation’s 60th Speaker, the national debt shot up approximately $5 trillion — more than the first 57 Speakers combined, according to CNS News.

HYPOCRITE OBAMA IS THE BIGGEST TWO-FACED F**KG LIAR OF ALL TIME!
President Obama signed two more executive memorandums last week, saying they will help employment at a time when congressional Republicans are blocking his $447 billion jobs bill.
“With too many families struggling and too many businesses fighting to keep their doors open, we can’t wait for Congress to take action,” Obama said in a statement, echoing a political point he has made throughout this week.
Flashback to May of 2008. Candidate Obama wasn’t a fan of a “president with too much power” back then. Here is the Liar-in-Chief lying his ass off about Bush and presidential powers while he was a candidate. Then, after being elected, he abuses (nay 'rapes') presidential signing powers more than any other president.
Almost every single complaint the Democrats had with President Bush--every one--was fake. They actually agreed with everything he did--by virtue of the fact Obama has either continued or expanded every Bush policy--and just complained about it for political expediency. Just amazing! It still astounds me that anyone was fooled by Liar Obama--the most 2-faced, hypocrite, and dishonest person, to ever become president.
Who better to dismantle and destroy the Constitution than a Constitutional scholar?
