last quarter? What's coming that will turn it around? Tax increases? Obamacare? 131 "economically significant" regulations?

I don't know about you, but my bank account is the biggest it's ever been.

I thought about starting a thread regarding Bernanke's plan to keep printing $85 billion a month in the Fed's continued debt monetizing efforts, but I figured it'd just sink anyway. Too many really interesting and important threads about guns and Republicans being fat poopyheads to bother.

Mostly due to cuts in government spending.

"NOW relies"???  LOL.   Where have you been for the last 75 years?  We've been TREMENDOUSLY reliant upon government spending since the beginning of WWII.  The defense industry has been one of the biggest sectors of the economy for decades.   Who do you think has ultimately been employing all those people?  The American taxpayer, my friend.

Yep.  The same people screaming for austerity measures panic when even a small modicum of austerity is implemented.  

Truth is A) they don't know what the fuck they are talking about.

B) wouldn't matter if they did.  They aren't interested in what's good for the nation.  Only what's good for their pocketbook.  And for people like Hannity it's simply to oppose Obama/Dems and blame them for EVERYTHING.   Because that's what keeps their listeners tuning in every day.

Obama has the highest approval rating since his first day in office. Republican, not much.

The political strategy of opposing everything Obama does and cock blocking Obama's initiatives hasn't worked out very well, lol.

The American people are officially clueless. Economy's bumped along the bottom for four years and now is slipping back into recession? Bernake is printing money like crazy? We're borrowing 40 cents of every dollar we spend? More economy crippling policies on the way? We don't care. We're low information voters that tune in to TMZ and Entertainment tonight. Lindsay Lohan we can tell you about. Kim Kardashian? On it. Honey Boo Boo. Oh yeah.

God help us.

Did someone mention Kim Kardashian?

[RedRoadEnsemble]

That was your pal McLovin. Kanye West can waste all his money on her. He is wasting his hard earned fortune.

[Philter]

Big drop in military spending... hard to get worked up over that.

[McLovin]

No surprise the White house is blaming......wait for it......the REPUBLICANS!!1!

Four more years of blameshifting and excuses. yeah!

[McLovin]

Of course who cares about a stagnant economy, falling middle class incomes, monstrous deficits, $6 trillion in new debt...we have to tackle the REAL issues like gun control, gay rights and amnesty for illegals!
