Poor Obama, he never gets a day off.

Breaking News! Woman thinks man she married is a hard worker! Film at eleven. Also; Pope confirms he is still Catholic and bears still defecating in forests!

I don't know how serious you were with this, but research has shown indications that most people form their political identification at an early age (often by association with their parents, but not always), and then form opinions (without realizing it) later on in their lives to fit back to their political ID. There's nothing wrong with that, it's just how it is (apparently).

That is an obvious bias. Does she expect us to take her seriously?

Of course the reverse opinion is also common. Woman thinks man she married is lazy. News at eleven thirty.

ETA: While I do not agree with many things the president does I am happy his wife is of the first opinion and I am in agreement with her.

True. I should've said that that is what she thinks publically. Privately it may be a different story.

ETA: Privately the Pope may worship small boys and bears may long for a decent outhouse with two-ply tissue for that matter.

A perk of being president is no one will tell him the lawn is getting long or the flower beds need weeding and mulching. Although for the most part I enjoy those chores.

And then we have the conservative idea for recovery (ironic since it was "conservative economics" that created the recession) that has never worked in the history of everything. But it would work this time for some reason. :rolleyes:

Supply side economics works just fine thank you. Kennedy, Reagan, Bush all successfully implemented it. But hey, don't let facts get in the way of your propaganda. BTW, how's that Keynesian economics working out for Obama these days??

That would be the same supply-side economics that resulted in a rather hefty increase in the national debt under Reagan? I wasn't aware that even conservatives still believe Reaganomics was a good economic policy.

CT is that way ---->
 
Yes, I was trapped like a house of dominoes. Check and Mate sir. :rolleyes:

And when was Obama actually allowed to implement Keynesian economics? Did that happen in an alternate universe?

You are looking at the wrong side of the ledger. Govt. revenues went up over 50%, that's the results to look at. Spending is a totally different matter.

When you use their own words against them, there is no conspiracy theory. Clearly, you need to take the blinders off. The funniest part of the facts is that Obama actually hired Franklin Raines to be his economic advisor!!.. as mentioned in the video.

Reading is fundamental..

""The Obama White House likes to say that the theories of John Maynard Keynes form the foundation for its fiscal policies. Most notably, it draws upon the legendary British economist's idea of spending big to pull out of a recession.""

check and mate...yet again..

Because Reagan raised taxes all but one year of his presidency. Its not hard to increase government revenue. The rest of us were in a recession.

Well, let's have a look at factcheck.org:

"President Reagan, in 1981, spent all or part of 42 days away from the White House "on vacation""

"President George W. Bush spent even more time away from the presidential mansion in the nation’s capital than Reagan. Of the 77 total "vacation" trips the former president made to his Texas ranch while in office, nine of them — all or part of 69 days — came during his first year as president in 2001"

"Bush’s father, President George H.W. Bush, spent less time "on vacation" during his first year than his son, but spent more days than President Obama."

"But at least two recent presidents — took less "vacation" time during their first year than President Obama — Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton."

So Obama is a slacker, by comparison to recent Democratic presidents, but a workaholic compared to recent Republican presidents.

Thanks for pointing that out, BAC.

That is because republicans know that as government officials they are totally incompetent. Their very ideology demands that they be incompetent. So as incompetents they know that it is best for everyone if they don't do anything.
 
So what about the point Michelle made that Obama is often better prepared for briefings than the people briefing him? There is certainly at least a widespread perception that Dubya didn't do his homework and then made decisions on his "gut" rather than based on research or solid information. There's also the whole notion that he was more or less the puppet of Cheney and/or Rove.

LOL! Does she think ANYONE will believe that? :rolleyes:

Why I think she just told a whopper and the picture of her on that website (courtesy of the AP) is therefore quite appropriate. :D

Brilliant. So, either 1) Michelle Obama is a stupid liberal incapable of utilizing "advanced" features of the English language—like idioms—and therefore lying through her liberal teeth, 2) you're the one lacking in those mental capabilities, or 3) your hatred is preventing you from accepting that she could be anything other than a filthy liar.

Really, BAC... Your anti-Obama posts are quite obviously the result of some sort of obsessive-compulsive disorder, but this one is bordering on sheer lunacy. You need serious help. You're not well.
