Oh, a side note...

Do you remember that "unconstitutional" Patriot Act that G.W. Bush signed that all those DEMs were BUGGING-OUT about ?

It was writen by Joe Biden, you know, the VPOTUS .

Soetoro a.k.a. Obama also signed the 'NEW' Patriot Act.

.

Dr. RON PAUL for POTUS in 2012

@Clarissa2424

Soetoro a.k.a. Obama has given more money/capital/currency to companies and corporations then any other leader in world history .

.

The Democrats also wrote the 787++ Billion $ stimulus bill, and they still have over 400 billion $ of it sitting in a slush-fund that hasn't been used yet but America is paying interest on .

@Clarissa2424

Did you know...

While in office G.W. Bush spent 4.4 Trillion $ in 8 years.

When Bush left office and Soetoro a.k.a. Obama took office the National Debt was 10.1 Trillion $.

While in office Soetoro a.k.a. Obama spent 3.7 Trillion $ in 23 months.

The National Debt is now [as of 8:05am-est. 12/7/10 ] 13.813 Trillion $.

.

Soetoro a.k.a. Obama has spent 4/5th of what Bush spent in only 1/4 the time .

You are right,... how easy we forget

All of that banking and investing deregulation was done by Bill Clinton

The 3 big policies that put America in this Economic Mess

1) The Federal Reserve Act -Dec. 23,1913 Democrat Woodrow Wilson

2) The Community Reinvestment Act -Nov. 12,1977 Democrat Jimmy Carter

3 The Financial Services Modernization Act -Oct. 12,1999 Democrat Bill Clinton

Hey Clarissa2424, go take an economics class!

Did you ever get a job from a poor person?

I guess you want the Feds to take care of you and give you a job? The government has never made a profit.....therefore they don't create jobs or wealth--they just transfer it from one person to whomever they deem worthy.

CNN shows their Bias by not showing the Full Blown Map when it is in the October 2010 stage and all of america is almost covered in unemployment!

CNN only shows the map up to the April 2009 mark.

[jmunn99]

We need to look at these figures and pause. There is plenty of blame to go around. From some of the policies passed during the Bush years and now during Obama's. I heard trickle down economics didn't work, but trickle up poverty doesn't appear to be working well either.

[Clarissa2424]

So why don't we elect the republicans in again? yeah! Already the banks and wall street and oil and gas companies are running amuck because their lobbyists are buying Congress to KEEP REGULATION OFF THEIR BACKS.

Guess who put together the Bank Bailout? Hint: BUSH.

Who encouraged Americans to go out and BUY BUY BUY after 9-11 to stimulate the economy, instead of realizing that 9-11 + War(s) + Billions of TAX CUTS(increasing DEBT) + Deregulation of Wall Street create the Near Collapse.
