On anniversary, Obama defends economic stimulus
Another snow job by Obama!
Obama’s a delusional nut
But now the question is “Who is going to save us from Obama?” I bet you if he was pressed on this statement, he could not prove it has created anything but a larger government.
He’s right. The past four presidents have been marching the Dollar to destruction in order to save the economy — in order to get re-elected. Some day soon the Dollar will implode. That will end this rat race.
Where is the media on this?
http://www.breitbart.tv/the-b-cast-interview-was-obama-a-committed-marxist-in-college/
Are you kidding? This interview just came out now???
If the $787 billion stimulus saved us then why is most of the money unspent?
Prove it…
Pathetic.
Show us the evidence, please. Enough with the “created or saved” nonsense. No one believes it, with good reason. It’s not an empirically verifiable statistic.
The stimulus also kept unemployment below 8% as promised. It also wisely spent money and there was no waste… It also “saved” 2 million jobs that are easily accounted for…What a crock! Why should we believe this used car salesman?
Sorry Barack, not believable. Your actions have created nothing but political payouts and debt. But on the bright side, it’s all Bush’s fault, right?
I fear we will all have to put our boots on. The BS is getting real deep!
Good Luck!
How do you succesfully sell a past theoretical product? Especially when 90 % of the population don’t even know what a Depression is
You can tell he has never done anything other than talk
Are you kidding me? What is this guy…A Stepford President? Who does he think he is fooling? Spare me…
It has only postponed the inevitable, with a great loss of taxpayer dollars. How long does he intend on wasting money?
Being employed for over 25 years prior to losing my job 5 months ago, I don’t believe we’re on the road to recovery until I see a job offer.
Until then, Obama’s words go in one ear and out the other.
Sad – the president is trying to convince us that the “stimulus” headed off depression. The government will not tell us where the money went – most of it has yet to be spent – most is going to his political interests ( like ACORN ) and the debt that our children will inherit will be staggering. BTW – we are in a depression – just ask the 18% of americans that are not employed. Obama was one huge mistake.
This “stimulus” didn’t create the private sector jobs it promised or “save” jobs at all! Besides the fact that there is no scientific method of determining jabs supposedly saved, this guy has the nerve to talk about its supposed benefits after the record jobs losses? All that money was wasted. How about it, Mr. President? I’m not loving it, here…
I liken this to the fist pump he gave when he threw one-hopped his pitch at the all-star game.
How sad.
B U L L C H I P!!!
End the rat race? What does that mean? Americans are the most productive in the world cause we get up early, work hard and stay late. If that is a rat race so be it. The dollar will implode because your president is running industry and small business into the ground! STOP BLAMMING EVERYBODY ELSE!!! This is your presidency and you told us you could FIX the problem and you’re not. His retoric has went from confiddent to passing the buck! DO THE JOB WE HIRED YOU TO DO!!
Obama talks about reducing debt spending and freezing spending. Why? Obama is like a college kid with her first credit card, except he has no spending limit and does not have to worry able paying the bills. He has been raping the treasury and running up the national debt faster than any other president in History.
So why say something stupid like “we need to freeze spending and stop deficit spending?” He has no intention of stopping anything. So why is he saying it?
The answer is the Chinese. The Chinese hold the biggest portion of the American debt. They realize that the value of the Dollar is dropping. They are going to loose money on their investment. They are pressuring Obama to stop deficit spending and stabilize the American Dollar. The problem is Obama can’t stop spending and America is bankrupt anyway. So Obama has to placate the Chinese by making stupid speeches like he really means to freeze spending.
Obama must think we are idiots. To add 1.35 trillion to the national debt then order a spending freeze on 15 billion. That is idiotic and he is only doing it so the Chinese will read in the newspaper that America is doing a spending freeze.
Oh, good, I was wondering what it was that saved us from certain doom. Captain Obama! Yayyyyyyy!

Kicking Obama and the rest of the Dem’s out of office…now there’s a shovel-ready project!
Hey Barry, Let’s do the math, how does taking more money out of the tax payer’s pockets and giving it to government workers help the economy? Resign now, you are way over your head man-boy!
The only problem with this article is that it is not the Republican critics that are hurting the President. What about the so called Blue Dog Democrats who are saying the same things. Evan Bayh said yesterday no jobs have been created. President Obama is the same as every other President trying to resale things they have done instead of admitting error and moving on to things that might work. Of course he can not do that because Americans want sound bites not solutions. The political system is reflection what Americans want and we are paying for it now.
We don’t believe you. It’s a lie!
Yeah, right.
I am so sick of the lies and misrepresentations! Obama created this depression by flooding the financial industry with borrowed money. He saved no jobs but lost millions. He has not helped this economy, he’s ruined it. Instead of letting the free market work, he dismantled it. It’s common knowledge the stimulus stimulated nothing by Obama’s ego. He just keeps trying to con us more and more but people have caught on and they’re not listening to him anymore. November’s elections can’t come soon enough to rein in this abuse of power.
Politicians will promse anything to anyone that will vote for them. The people don’t seem to see a problem with voting for “stuff”. The Republic is in trouble. This is not what made the US great.
We lost 4 million jobs you lying POS. Look in the mirror to see what a real jack ass looks like.
TARP was said to save us from another depression. The Stimulus you said was to save us from a 9% unemployment rate because that would be catastrophic or impossible to come back from (I cant think of the quote but look it up). Can you not keep your lies straight anymore? Americans see what you are. POS
That’s a bold statement considering only 12% was spent as of last September, and 3 out 4 Americans say that most of it has been wasted according to CNN.
More government, more poverty!!! Obama should think about the Founding Fathers and how America was founded.Obama is taking your FREEDOM away!
With a small percentage actually spent???
More double speak!!!
Like gunslinger Jim Wilson said to Shane-”Prove it!”
yep… and Pat Robertson saved us Virginians from Hurricane Gloria in 1985!
Isn’t it the media’s responsibility to challenge or question statements such as “the stimulus has created or saved 2 million jobs”? At what point does the mainstream media actually do its job and stop blindly accepting such ridiculousness?
This man will stand before people and spew words that have no basis in fact and not even flinch. His official website listed Congressional districts that don’t even exist. He has a slush fund of over $3 trillon left in TARP funds which have been unaccounted for and he expects us to believe he has created jobs? He should be impeached.
So using this logic, more spending would make it even better right?
So using this logic, more spending would make it even better right?
…yea and I have some swamp land in Arizona I’d like to sell too! The man child is out of his mind!
Hahahahah!!! That’s funnier than when Biden called Iraq one of Obama’s greatest achievements!
This man has more S*** with him than a Christmas turkey!!!!!!
He’s sounding more like Ahmadinejad everyday!
Obama says stimulus cures cancer. Obama says a lot of things that aren’t true. Why should anyone believe him now? They are just thowing everything against the barn door to see what sticks.
I was all Americans had a say within our government and not just the two parties. This is not what my family fought for in the revolution. I want the truth.
Typical college teacher mentality. He thinks he is smarter thane everyone else. Hi is a fool.
Why does BO continue to insult our intelligence ? Obviously he feels that we are not smart enough to read and understand the facts as they really are. With more than half of the stimulus monies yet to be spent how can he stay on the campaign trail and continue to spread his falsehoods ? 2,000,000 jobs saved or created. Prove it Mr. President…you are not believable any more.
Our savior! I’ve completely forgotten that he is black! http://www.RightWingInc.com
In January 2010, the White House estimated that $263.3 billion of the original $787 billion, or roughly one-third of the total stimulus, had been distributed (and not necessarily spent).
So our president intends for us to believe that less than $300B has saved our nation?!
I find his attempts to be shallow and pedantic.
I WANT THE TRUTH.
That’s right Obama . . . as the country’s economy continues to deteriorate what we really need is more talk from you. Go back to the White House and see if you can conjure up something constructive and stop your constant babble.
The really sad part was the stimulus package was full of pay backs with very little emphasis on jobs. Obama could have taken a strong stand, but he did not. It is very difficult to believe him in this arena.
All the stimulus did was to allow us one more circle in the toilet bowl.
Obama give us a break… don’t do or say anv thing more. Just shut up.
all that matters is that the mainstream media believes him. they’ll portray him as the Messiah and all will be well. However, someone is doomed … is it us or is it them.
Mr. President, you told the banks that “we want our money back”. We Mr. President, with more than half of the stimulus money yet unspent, the American people are tell you that “WE WANT OUR MONEY BACK !!!!”
Obama critics have conceded that Obama has definitely created 3 new jobs:
Gov. McDonnell of Virginia
Gov. Christie of New Jersey
Sen. Brown of Massachusetts
So, instead of sending money to Haiti by texting 90999, maybe we need to set up a fund where Americans can directly contribute to paying off the national debt. Then we can put out some really great commercials with politicians and celebrities commenting on how patriotic it is to make donations…
Yea, and it also kept unemployment below 8%. He should have also said it saved 80 million jobs. His words are meaningless at this time. Never thought I would see a president worse than Carter.
If stimulus dollars helped save jobs, why are there some counties in Michigan that have an unemployment rate of 28% and climbing? It is so bad in Michigan and it seems we are always overlooked, with the exception of Sarah Palin.
We’re not in a depression? That’s news to me! Thanks, OBlaBla!
OBAMA is Correct.
I am completely unbiased – but right now republicans are doing something which is going to destroy them! They are cheerleading NEGATIVITY.
When republicans recently Stood up to APPLAUD CHICAGO USA not getting the Olympics – that was spiteful.
You need to be an AMERICAN first and a conservative SECOND.
The audacity of this radical racist Marxist crook is beyond belief. The very sight of him should motivate Americans to find every way possible to throw these Democrats and RINO’s out of office and permanently exile Obama to a third world socialist s—hole of his choosing.
We are in a depression. This is what we get for electing a professor. A person who could not hold a real job if they tried. The day we start electing soldiers, plumbers, firefighters, accountants, etc… to congress and the presidency will be the day that things will get straightened out. Real people with real jobs that have had to deal with real problems. Not unemployable attorneys and bureacrats.
This guy just cant keep his mouth shut, and he sends out Joe Biden to tell us Washington is broken? Huh?
OBAMA
O-ONE
B-BIG
A-ASS
M-MISTAKE
A-AMERICA
Typical college teacher mentality. He thinks he is smarter than everyone else. He is a fool.
Delusional. The crap he shovels is unbelievable!
Yes it did save 2 million jobs..
Union,Teachers,Gov. workers, Public Workers, etc….
What about the Private sector? Where are these new Jobs?
Barack Hussein Islam Marxist Obama is Delusional…!!!
He campaigned AGAINST HIGHER Deficits…!!!
My family and extended family is more broke now than ever before.
The only ones NOT hurting are those State and Federal Employees who retired at 90 to 100 percent of their salaries…!!!
No, it didn’t.
ALL it did was add another 50,000 to our grandchildren’s personal debt the day they are born. The Socialist LIAR Obama is delusional, or an out and out liar. I pick LIAR!
Is this the new BS coming out now? ROFLMAO!
I love how people who obviously don’t like Obama just automatically disbelieve anything he’s saying. Did the stimulus save us from depression? Probably. What would have happened if the larger banks were allowed to fail? Would they have failed? No one seems to have an answer for that. All they seem to want to do here is spout their political discontent. Politics as usual. If you don’t like it, complain about it… but offer no other solution.
Stimulus saved us from depression the same way it has created and saved jobs
Obama says stimulus headed off depression = Goldman Sachs got richer … Obama needs to get out of office
When GOOD things happen for your COUNTRY and you try to spin it as NEGATIVE just to hurt the PRESIDENT – you are just a sore loser.
He Nobama!!!! Here is a thought.
‘There are none so blind as those who will not see.’ That says it all.
Richard Nixon: “I am not a Crook”
Barack Obama: “I am not Incompetent”
What do you expect from a guy who sat in the pews of that church listening to that crazy pastor spout out “God Damn America” for 20+ years??
“Let me be clear about this”, if the guy had a shred of intellect beyond his speaking skills he wouldn’t say or do the ridiculous and shocking things he does.
Even if he was telling the truth (I know, ha-ha), $787BB for 2MM jobs is nearly $400,000 per job. How many more jobs would have been created if that money had just been left in the private sector?
All I can say is “8 more months, 8 more months”. After that people, we have to seriously consider removing this moron from office.
Obama is one big dollar liar, and America is all the wiser for it now.
Barry is working hard and by working hard I mean talking out of his ass. He sucks at this President thing.
What a Pathetic Empty suit Mr. OBama is.
He is so full of Equine Manure that no one seems to pay much attention to him anymore. Blah, Blah, Blah, He certainly loves to hear himself talk platitudes and BS.
Really a sad situation for the USA and the rest of the world as well.
He’s sounds more and more like Iran’s president Ahmadinejad everyday!
Obama wants to take credit for everything, whether he had anything to do with it or not.
“Obama launched a sweeping effort to convince skeptical Americans that the stimulus has been beneficial, saying it had created or saved 2 million jobs and attacking Republican critics who doubt its effectiveness.”
……..Obama needs to wise up …..it’s not just Republican critcs…….it’s We The People…….who are Democrats, Independents, and Republicans….
Perfect…by my math that is 393,500,000 per job…sign me up for one of those jobs, where do I apply?
AT this point Republicans will applaud if the USA hockey team failed to win a GOLD.
Pathetic.
WHAT? This is way beyond LYING! Does he know what is going on in the real world? We need HELP!
Obama has on numerous occasions tired to parallel his rise to power with Abraham Lincoln. I think it appropriate Mr. Lincoln should have the last word regarding Mr. Obama. “If you once forfeit the confidence of your fellow citizens, you can never regain their respect and esteem. It is true that you may fool all of the people some of the time; you can even fool some of the people all of the time; but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.”
Wishful thinking…just like all of his “HOPE & CHANGE”.
YOU LIE!
Obama lies. This stimulus package did not save anything, because it is not targeted at jobs, it is wasteful, and not even half of the money has been distributed. Obama is delusional.
I contend he caused a greater problem with this pork littered boondoggle of a Bill. Since this first Bill was supposed to be for infrastructure and it was not why would we fall for the part 2 incarnation.
Feb 17, 2010 11:00am ESTIf the $787 billion stimulus saved us then why is most of the money unspent?
Glenn Beck suggests Obama is waiting until the midterm elections are closer then use it like “walking around” money (my words) to get businesses going with little or no strings to follow..
He went on to talk about FDR doing much the same thing with the CCC and other government jobs to help get Dems elected or reelected….
The Chosen One is just being modest. Actually I believe the Porkulus “saved” over 2 Trillion Jobs and it is not done yet Baby!!!!
This is a farce and a fraud. Why won’t he hold a press conference so that he can be challenged on his assertions?
Instead he assembles his little cheering peanut gallery whose applause can only fool the most unsophisticated or blindly loyal. I am a lifelong Democrat, but he lost me months ago.
Thats exactly like living off a credit card , it just delays the inevitable .
To put it in perspective the entire dot-com bubble crash wiped out $5 trillion in market value of technology companies from March 2000 to October 2002.
Now Obama Signs Law Raising Public Debt Limit from $12.4 Trillion to $14.3 Trillion and Obama and Pelosi want another 750 Billion Stimulus ?
Do we really need a speed rail to Disney , and a speed rail in Vegas ?
the only jobs that are OBAMA’S creations are shoveling DEMS out of their offices!!!
Obama knows how to read from his telepromters.. but that is it!!!
I don’t think no one on here can prove that the Stimulus did not work.
The Obama Administration scheduled the stimulus to kick in just before the next election so that he could make political hay on it. The politics couldn’t be better for leftists!!
Obama has finally realized he up against the ropes and is starting yet another campaign of tough talk to get back into the ring. Unfortunately, it is only talk. The stimulus is the only thing in his first year that he has passed and now he is trying to claim it was a success. It’s all he has to hang on to. If it was a success, we still would not be at 10% or higher unemployment and would have jobs ’saved or created’ across the all sectors of the economy, not just teachers and first responders.
Is the mainstream media ever going to turn on this loser ?
Joe Wilson said it best, “YOU LIE!”
Remember the last time a US President wagged his finger at us? Does the lying SOB Bill Clinton denying his affair with Monica Lewinsky ring a bell? The lying SOB Barack Obama is 10 times worse. At least the rest of us didn’t suffer from Clinton’s lie (ignoring the fact that the ensuing investigations preoccupied the Clinton administration and prevented him from going after terrorists.)
Obama hasn’t spent any of it yet..so just ‘how’ did it work..Obama is saving the stimulus money for his re-election fiasco!
Everyone, check the timing and wording of all these responses. It appears to me that they are artificially created. I think we have a republicon propaganda machine on our hands in this forum. I didn’t know they knew how to use a computer.
It’s not so bad. We only have three more years of being lectured at, and condescended to, by this petulant young puppy.
The Obama Plan
What is Obama trying to do with all this spending? He is trying to cause a collapse. Why would he cause a collapse? A collapse is the only way that you could stage a massive takeover of the united states. He has already built the frame work for this takeover. So what is holding him up. The Health Care bill is a key part in causing this collapse. The amount of money that will be required to fund the Health Care bill is a key player. If the Health Care bill passes; Then other planned bills will complete the collapse process. This is why I have called on every single American to do whatever is in their means to stop this takeover. May GOD walk with you and protect you in your journey to save America. The Anti-Christ is here and his name is Obama.
What could be more depressing that a good crisis? In Rules for Radicals, Saul Alinksi said, “Don’t waste a good crisis!!” Is that why Obama thrusts and perrys, to avoid stopping this “good crisis?”
Obama appears to believe his own blather. Keep saying it enough, and people will begin to believe it–at least, that’s his hope.
Anyone who actually believes his rhetoric is either delusional, or a complete idiot.
what stimulus obama? almost non of the money has been spent yet? that hairs turning gray..stressful when you dont have a clue what your doing!! LOL
He is not qualified for the job he holds and it has become evident to most Americans. Noting about this man child is believable. Like promoting a school crossing guard to air traffic controller. He is over his head, not an iota of leadership quality in the little arrogant man.
When is enough…enough?!
Monthly job losses equals 2 million new jobs??????
Our country will be returned to us when and if the Media begins to cover this story…
NATURAL BORN CITIZEN
The answer is “When asked to define natural born citizen, John Bingham, the author of the 14th ammendment which extended the bill of rights to former slaves, stated, “Any human born to parents who are US citizens and are under no other jurisdiction or authority.”
Unfortunately, our president really doesn’t care about the day-to-day management tasks that are part of the job. Not only will he settle for one term, he’ll apparently settle for a grade of ‘D’.
I believe this is a classic case of “beauty being in the eye of the beholder.” And let me tell you…..I don’t feel like I have been saved. More like sacrificed.
Yeah, I imagine the stimulus bill was pretty good…if you happen to work on road repair projects or re-roofing a government building.
But most of us aren’t government contractors. And those “shovel ready” projects are NOT steady, continuing jobs. Once the road is fixed or the roof is on…then what?

Actually, he was being humble. It saved or created 5,000,000,000,000 jobs. Every job ever performed by anyone, whether living, dead or not yet born yet was saved or created by Obama. I dare anyone to prove me wrong.
So that comes out to $393,500 for every job saved for last year by Obama. Unemployment continues to go up, which indicates the underlying problem with jobs is still there. Again…short term thinking for a long term problem. Businesses creates jobss for the long term not government handouts.
You cannot save or create jobs, thats an oxymoron, just like the President.
What a Ponzi scheme, our government is like Madoff on steroids.
We are in a depression, stimulus money saved the weak companies and made the strong ones weaker. Great work O, history has shown bailouts don’t work. Of course they know that already that is why they are calling the next stimulus package a “jobs bill”, who wouldn’t vote for that? Geitner made a deal with the banks that if they pay back TARP money early they will get to write the new bank regulations. Geitner needed the money to give to the states because by law they cannot carry a deficit.
The bottom dropped out when it looked like Obama would win, smart people knew what was coming. The rest of us joined in after the election results saw the sweeping gains of the Dem’s in Congress. More bad news in the spring with Franken giving the Dem’s a super majority. Nuff said. Vote them out and let’s get back to prosperity….please!
Let’s see…that comes to almost $400,000 for each job. Not too bad – unless you’re the poor taxpayer who is paying the freight.
Who’s kidding who? The Stimulus was a failure even by Obama’s own pie in the sky numbers. He spent nearly 400,000 dollars PER JOB! Jobs that won’t even pay more than 75k. We would have been better suited to just pay unemployed people the money. Clearly this money is just being pocketed by his cronies.
He is saving only himself, not us. By looting our national treasury, destroying our private sector, and leaving our country with crippling debt for generations, Obama hopes to bring about the kind of economic collapse and political instability that will justify further power grabs by he and his cronies. Obama is the most corrupt President this nation has ever had, hands-down.
The president is correct. We might think the situation with jobs, retirement, and the economy is bad today but it would have been a lot worse for us had we let the ‘market’ forces annihilate our generation before recovering to a new plateau. We can’t see beyond the tip of our nose, and we are ungrateful to those that help.

Fraud and deception! Arrogance and failure! Non-leadership and “we the people” are coming to vote them into unemployment enmasse. They do not deserve to lead when they over-spend and over tax and cheat the people and harm the country.
How can peope make fun of a former Commander -in- Chief of the only National Giard Unit in America (Sarah Palin) that is on duty 24/7 and praise this pretender who had 140 or so days in the U.S. senate.
Just keep talking Barry. Everytime you do, your poll numbers tank. Your days are numbered. You are going the way of Global Warming and for the very same reason.
You are both Frauds!
According to the Government’s own records, approximately $235 billion has been spent, and of this amount approximately $150 million has been for grants…to state housing agencies, community housing agencies, state governments, miscellaneous art projects, and some infrastructure stuff. This is what saved us???
Congressman Wilson is right!
Barry – You’d better hope that the unspent $500B of the ’stimulus’ slush fund buys you another 20+% of the eletorate, becaus as it’s looking now your math ain’t cuttin’ it.
This is absurd. When he is standing there speaking does he believe anyone who thinks for themselves is believing his insipid intellectual pabulum? He has no common sense.
That he may actually believe his own tripe is the real frightening possibility.
“Here. Have some Kool-aid.”
I have never heard so much BS in one place at one time in my life. Does he really think Americans are that stupid? Looked like Biden was in a nodding head competition, all that was missing was Pelosi.
the drug taker is still on drugs – HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Was he standing on the deck of an aircraft carrier when he said this?
USA USA USA
We must make sure President Obama’s a one term president!
And I, personally, have saved you all from hoards of blood-sucking zombies. And if it weren’t for my tireless vigil, we’d have been destroyed by killer asteroids. Also…well, I think I’ve made my point.
delusional crack hoe….where is sirhan sirhan when you need him?
Obama is Correct.
You Jealous Freaks. Where is your uber patriotism now you Fools.
USA USA USA
blow it out your Obama, Obama. You are the most pathetic pres ever period!!!!!! Why don’t you flush America down your billion dollar toilet!!! Oh, you did, it’s just clogged up with your BS!!!! 2012 the plunger will show up. GO SHARA flush that turd!!!
Yeah, he saved us. And he caused the collapse, too. See here: http://addednoise.blogspot.com/2010/02/what-happened-on-august-28-2008.html
Me not reading this has created or saved 2 AP jobs.
It’s a recipe!
moron, lying sack of shitte…this boy needs to do something he is qualified for…collecting govt cheese
OBAMA RULES!
Yeah we need more stimulus to save Fannie and Freddie, when we add them in the deficit is doubled. When you add SS, 4x, add in Medicare 8x
Two Words:
PONZI SCHEME
Another lie by the father of lies. Oh wait, that’s Satan isn’t it?! My bad. I get the two confused so easily …
Somebody is doing drugs!
Go OBAMA
Are you kidding me? What planet is this guy on? The money went nowhere and the all of the jobs that were created/saved?? This is another lie! Can we please find a reason to get this incompetent out of power and put someone in that has even the slightest of good ideas? Is this possible?!?!?! How about an interim manager? This is what all of the sports teams do. So, let’s put someone else in – and NO Biden!!
Santayana was right… we forgot what Jimmy Carter brought us and now we are condemned to repeat that catastrophe.
Does anyone actually believe this liar anymore? “Created or saved”; what’s that all about? And it was more than $787 billion for the ’stimulus’. When everything was added up, as usual, our government overran its budget. I believe an additional $25 billion was added to the tab. And why haven’t they spent a large amount of it yet? Waiting to ’stimulate’ just before the elections? Sorry, too late for that. The American voters are awake and on to what the ‘transparent’ joker is up to. I’m so sick of this joker lying to us and being so arrogant as to believe that we actually buy it. He’s embarrassing himself.
So, mk214, what do you think of the sweetheart deal George Soros’s Bank OneWest got for buying IndyMac’s disposable assets for 70% and then the FDIC buying them back from OneWest at 90%. Wow, that’s creating jobs. eh ?
Obama is a liar and a thief, along with the rest of the Democrat Party for shoving this crap down out throats. You arrogant devils are going down in November.
can hardly wait for the 2010 November elections when the new congress will be able to set forth articles of impeachment against this POS
@USAUSAUSA
If you have to say that you are unbiase …..then you obviously are bias
First, some things that were restated today about the stimulus, its cost is now $862B. Second, only 5% was directed to infrastructure. Third, only 1/3 of the allocated funds were spent. Fourth, Obama talks about 2 million jobs, the White House web site only reports less than 600 thousand. In other words, it is a failed program. And a costly one. By the time it is over, it will have added 1T to the deficit/debt.
L I A R
The problem as I see it is the naivete of the American people thinking that this it is only going to take one year to fix what has been coming for the last four administrations at least.
It is going to take years for the full effect of the crisis and therefore the recovery to be felt.
Stop your arm chair quarterbacking and help do something about it even if you don’t support the president stop your whining and get behind the country.
“Perhaps the best-known economic research firms are IHS Global Insight, Macroeconomic Advisers and Moody’s Economy.com. They all estimate that the bill has added 1.6 million to 1.8 million jobs so far and that its ultimate impact will be roughly 2.5 million jobs. The Congressional Budget Office, an independent agency, considers these estimates to be conservative.”
But you guys disbelieve what you need to disbelieve, based on noting whatsoever, because… well, that’s just the way Conservatives roll.
republicans lend themselves to racism so well. Thats exactly why there losing the country. Day by day
It hasnt helped me out. I, a union pipefitter, worked all eight years that Bush was in office, but have only worked a few months since Obama won the election. He has done nothing for me and I work for one of his cronies, the united association. Stop spending so much money and we are going to have to cut entitlements.
He is a lousy liar.
If it stopped the slide, then imagine what the rest of the stimulus could do, being that we only spent about 40% of it. We’d all be millionaires. What are they waiting for? We could go to
obamanomics didn’t save anything. He has destroyed the dollar in one year and has mortgaged the future of our kids. He is a socialist and all his actions prove it. Open your eyes Amerika as we are sliding into a hole we’ll never recover from.
Lying Communist Skunk. When he speaks you can smell the stink over the sattellite airwaves or through the digital wires. Why is he giving BILLIONS to the crooks at ACORN?
NO jobs were created, and the only jobs that were “saved” are the jobs of state government workers. Barry just funnelled billions to states so they wouldn’t have to take these overpaid parasites off the payroll. But saving the jobs of government workers is actually counterproductive, because their entire salary is paid with tax dollars. The best way to stimulate the private economy is to slash the number of state and federal gov’t “workers.”
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
OBAMA IS HITLER… LET US FOLLOW NO MATTER WHAT THE COST!
YOU LIE !!!
I guess if he says so, it must be true. LOL
What a dope…
Hey Barry, you’ve done absolutely nothing you promised us during your campaign. No one believes you anymore. Wake up, moron.
Obama doesn’t even like America, too bad he has ruined it for another minority being President for a long time.
This is another patently absurd claim. If spending $787 Billion that we do not have nor will ever repay was so helpful (an alleged 9.7% unemployment rate), why not spend a couple trillion more dollars that we do not have nor will ever repay to reduce the unemployment rate to say 9%?
Somehow I’m not feeling saved, in fact I’m feeling kind of RAPED
The White House tried to defend the jobs saved a couple of times and it failed. They finally said that it did not matter how many jobs were saved! Now it is back at us! This is unbelievable. Where are the media on this? Guess they think we are all hay-seeds.
I care for an 85-year-old delusional man who makes more sense than ‘O’. What a twit!
Well, they way I see it. He figures if he could get 54% of the voters to vote for him, he can get anyone to believe his pathological BS. The funny thing is, if it’s not on a t-shirt or a bumper sticker, HIS supporters would have no idea what he is talking about since they don’t read newspapers and only understand catch phrases.
I guess it’s easy to say things like that when you have a guaranteed job for the next few years and can spend other people’s money without a second thought. Next you’re going to be telling us that trans fats improve your health and contribute to significant weight loss!
Obama is a liar, a schemer, a Marxist dreamer. He’ll claim credit all kinds of miracles, like stopping the seas from rising, stopping the globe from warming, stopping calamity and catastrophe from ravaging the average man. I’m expecting claims next he stopped Mt. St. Helens from erupting and stopped the Moon from colliding with Earth. Obama is not only a liar, he’s a megalomaniacal blowhard who has never accomplished a thing with his own hands or own mind. He’s a lightweight Democrat Marxist punk who will break this country and ruin the futures and fortunes of those here and now and their unborn if not stopped.
I truly believe Obama despises Americans and the people who founded it, and he’ll only be at an inner peace when he brings it all down.
The ISP’s many of you are using, confirms that most of these comments are coming from people who don’t live in the US.
Yes the Stimulus worked, it’s obvious to even the denseist of critics. If you say fail often enough, it creates the negative impression, the republican party is championing.
While your at it tell Netanyahu, he’s next on the list of issues. There’s a new Sherriff in town, and just like the taliban, your days are numbered.
I see people on this post who call themselves American, saying all sorts of crazy stuff. I must have been the only one to see just about every interstate highway in my area paved last year (private sector jobs!). That is just one example that comes to mind. People need to wake up. Your rights are being taken away in the name of religion and greed. The longer we are distracted a bigger piece of the pie is taken away by the elite. They eat steak while we fight for the gristle. Wealth does not trickle down. This is just a silly idea to me. If you give business owners tax cuts, they put the money in their pocket, they don’t hand it out like we are led to believe. I don’t think it is “marxist”(most overused propaganda word of the new decade) to protect the average citizen from predatory businesses and banks. We all deserve the right to the American Dream, not just the rich. It is not socialist to want more from my government. We don’t need a gigantic government, but we need one big enough to protect us. Right now we have one that does nothing at all. Go Barack! Don’t listen to the echo of the propaganda machine
Barack Obama saved or created millions of Republicans
No USAUSAUSA – Tea Parties are for analytical, critical, and constitutional thought. Thus, you would have no reason or intellectual aptitude to attend!
My head is spinning right now. Some day the Republicans are going to be in charge again and can you imagine a Republican president saying this crap? If we hadn’t have spent this money, which the Dems keep telling us hasn’t fully been spent yet, we ’saved’ 2 million jobs!! The MSM would be having convulsions.
It’s very hard to believe this man. I listened to the interview posted above. Sounds credible.
0bama scares me more than any other politician has ever scared me.
Proof there is no difference between the political parties in this country and that they are bothnothing but front men for the fascist regime now controling this country. He’s a mouthpiece, just like Bush and his predecessors. When will The People learn? The Business Plot (see Gen. Smedley Butler) is now complete.
republicans lend themselves to racism so well. Thats exactly why there losing the country. Day by day
It really bothers me that this administration is so arrogant that they actually think we are this ignorant enough to believe this lie.
The stimulus was nothing but a handout for Government jobs and pork that the democrats wanted to hand out for the last 10 years at our expense that should have been cut to bring down the deficit. So now a year later we are still in the same situation and 17% of the real working Americans are out of work because the democrats hate private sector business and those that make a profit and hire us. THE STIMULUS DID NOT WORK!! It just extended public sector jobs that have to be cut.
In a perverse way I feel sorry for this man.
“A lie told often enough becomes truth” Vladimir Lenin.
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and standeth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
If anyone dosnt think that the money pumped into the economey didnt save or create jobs then you are a complete idiot! Plain and simple without that stimulus money we would probably have an unemployment rate around 14% by now. Thank you Obama for doing a good job to help save our eroding economy. You people amaze me how retarded you are!
That is nearly $400,000 per job.
This is what we get for voting in a President that doesn’t have enough business experience to manage a McDonald’s restaurant.
The trouble is, I think he really thinks he’s created and/or saved 2 million jobs.
Our economy & our children’s future is being destroyed by an inexperinced fool.
That’s the way to build trust and encourage bipartisanhip – accuse those who disagree whith you of being hypocrites. Milktoast Intolerant has it right about Obama in their song Sunday School http://www.MilktoastIntolerant.com
As an Alabama resident, I must say this professor is even more dangerous than Amy Bishop, (the nutty professor at UAH that shot her colleagues over denied tenure) We dont want him here. We have enough problems with our governor ILLEGALLY eliminating jobs.
It is way too soon to judge. Give him time.
http://graciouslivingdaybyday.com/
You lie!
Morons. First of all 787 billion is really 11 trillion out and 13 trillion more in commitments.
These idiots fail to comprehend that we are insolvent with 106 trillion in unfunded liabilities and 12++ trillion in debt.
Obama you stupid idiot it is default or devalue the dollar. Spending is WHAT GOT US INTO THIS MESS MORE SPENDING WILL ONLY MAKE THE CRASH WORSE.
UTTER AND ABSOLUTE MORONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bARACK STOP WITH THE BULL CRAP AND HIRE SOME EXPERT MeXPERTS TO HELP USGOUT OF YOUR RAPID MARCH TO INSOLVENCY AND BOLHEVIK PROPAGANDA AND INEPTNESS…The stymulus is a growing Disaster akin to a cancer that nobody in your Inept grou of advisors, Czars and are all appointed by YOU are able to get their arms around acting more like alligators….
I forgot to mention … yesterday an alien landed in my yard. He said he was about to blow up the earth. He looked away for second, and I clubbed him dead with a big frozen sausage. I saved the world, I am a hero, and you owe me.
Reuters buried the lead: “CBS/NY Times poll showed only 6% believed the stimulus created jobs.”
This explains it all:
http://www.breitbart.tv/the-b-cast-interview-was-obama-a-committed-marxist-in-college/
Enough said..next..What are WE AMERICANS going to do about it?
Stop with the “jobs saved or created” BS. No administration in HISTORY has ever forced this bogus stat on us and you press people are eating it up. Our economy has lost 4 million jobs since Obama took office. MOST of the stimulus has not even be spent yet and I and millions of others are tired of the spin and lies.

Okay, this is either Rahm Emanuel writing, or Hugo Chavez. (Or maybe Barry himself?) Of course, there are so many Marxists in this administration, it could be anyone in the White House. If you actually believe this drivel, you are either a complete moron, or a propagandist for the Dear Leader.
Shister salesman.
Yeah, sure. Jobless recovery, right? With old-method unemployment calculations in the 20% range, and the State lie being @ 10%. Seems dire in an economy whose GDP is 70% spending. (Note the media often compares old-method numbers (which are higher) to new method, this in and of itself is propaganda).
Treasuries – 80% were bought by the Federal Reserve in 2009. Interest rates unsustainably low, and if the rates pop to attract new investors, debt service load will go form 6-8% of budget to multiples of that.
1 in 6 FHA loans in the trailing 12 months is delinquent.
Deficit spending is at an all time high and burgeoning when there is potential to need to raise rates to attract treasury investors. Very, very dangerous to be there. China this week unloaded 32 billion in treasuries. Japan is now #1 holder of debt. US borrows Chinese money to arm Taiwan, and wonders why China is upset.
These “Teaparty” issues have percolated up with Ross Perot several times before. One might take a look at perotcharts.com before spouting off about progressivism being a good thing (The top 1% earners pay 40% of all taxes. The top 10% pay 60% of all taxes, yet there is “more” wanted by the supposed proles, but more like its incited class warfare to create division despite the evil rich paying a lot of the freight.) . Yet, as Perot and folks like Ron Paul were laughed at in the past, now not so much. You see, they (Perot, Paul, others) basically predicted the future with shocking accuracy. The deficits, the spending beyond income even during prosperity, the perpetual wars and the unfunded social entitlement programs that have no hope of working even during good economic times is eclipsing American power.
Some are trying to erect a quasi-socialist state like that of say, Sweden. Yet, Sweden is a homogeneous culture, small population ~9 million, good natural borders and before rampant taxation moved a number of prolific businesses away, this country of 9 million made cars, cell phones, jet aircraft, heavy industry equipment, gave rise to Ikea, etc.
The problem is simple. The US is 300+ million with a leaky border. Entitlements will break this union faster than can be imagined. One might argue this is the point and a Cloward-Piven strategy, but its probably just ignorance.
The US competes with India and China. Brazil and Russia are also players, but the two main players are India and China. These countries are not dumb, are being lead in a much smarter way, and are not shooting themselves in the foot. These “socialist/communist” countries are nothing of the sort, the entitlements are bare to non existent, they foster business, ruthlessly defend local business against foreign business and are more capitalist than the United States. They have more people in their top 10% of every category than the US has people.
Also, there are many fiscal bombs in the waiting. A list ensues.
Mandatory spending: $1.89 trillion (+6.2%) (FY2009)
*
o $644 billion – Social Security
o $408 billion – Medicare
o $224 billion – Medicaid and the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP)
o $360 billion – Unemployment/Welfare/Other mandatory spending
o $260 billion – Interest on National Debt
Please note the ADMINISTRATION costs of all this psychotic spending is in the DISCRETIONARY budget and is not listed here. (e.g., Social Security is ~ 9billion/year)
REPEAT:
64%++ of our federal budget is: Social Security, Welfare, Workfare, Interest on Debt, Medicare, Medicaid. This has proven over time to be the biggest financial mistake ever made, and China and India don’t have to repeat what is dooming the USA to be a second-world country.
Federal Budget Deficit Bomb: It started with Bush: The wars, TARP, spending. Obama is only accelerating spending. His budget for 2010 is $14.3 trillion. It was $7.8 trillion in 2005. The CBO predicts future deficits around 4 percent through 2020. America’s debt at 84 percent of GDP will soon pass that toxic 90 percent trigger point
U.S. Foreign Trade Bomb: $400 billion in trade deficits are added each year and foreigners now own $2.5 trillion of America, with China holding over $1.3 trillion in Treasury debt.
Weakening U.S. Dollar as Foreign Reserve Currency Bomb: If the dollar is replaced as main foreign reserves – and it’s falling – the main index measuring dollar strength has gone from 120 at the Clinton-to-Bush handoff to below 80 today. ( http://quotes.ino.com/chart/?s=NYBOT_DX&v=dmax )
Cheap Money Bomb – Credit Ratings Down, Rates Up: As debt climbs and the bank ratings fall, interest rates will skyrocket.
Global Real Estate Bomb: Dubai is falling apart because of over-speculation. People stopped buying real estate. They’ve got massive empty towers. Even the tallest building sits empty. Commercial real estate bubble is now $1.7 trillion. People are still behind on mortgages at all-time highs; did we really hit bottom on real estate yet?
Social Security Bomb: They’ve been telling us for a while that by 2035 it will go haywire. But for the first time in history Social Security is in the red. Check your calendar: Is it 2035 yet? Let’s see, will politicians cut benefits? Nope. They need to hand out more Bread and Circus.
Medicare Nuclear Bomb: It’s going broke faster than Social Security. The Republican progressive prescription drug benefit added an unfunded $8.1 trillion. In five years, estimates rose from about $35 trillion to over $60 trillion now. And they are talking about expanding it in the new health care bill? Along with covering 30 million new people?
State and Local Government Budget Bombs: Deficits of $110 billion in 2010; $178 billion in 2011, on top of more that $450 billion in under-funded state and municipal employee pension funds. California alone is 20 billion in the hole on a 100 billion dollar general fund.
Under-funded Corporate Pensions Bomb: Guess who picks up the tab for the $409 billion deficit in under-funded pensions that default? Taxpayers.
Consumer Debt Bomb: Americans are still living beyond their means. Even with a downturn, consumer debt rose from about $2.3 to $2.5 trillion. Hmm, spending more, earning less….
Personal Savings Bomb: Before the 2008 meltdown savings rate dropped from about 10 percent in the early 1980s to below zero. Now it’s creeping up: 70 percent of our economy is based on spending.
War and Military Defense Deficits: Costs of Iraq and Afghanistan wars – $200+ billion annually, $3 trillion minimum… long-term costs for veteran medical care, equipment renewal, recruitment.
Fed/Treasury Bailout Bombs: Government shifts burden of failing businesses from those businesses to the American taxpayer.
Insatiable Washington Lobbyists Bombs: You’ve seen what no lobbyists in an administration looks like. It ends up being 30-plus. Andy Stern, the unions, Goldman – voters and even Congress is becoming irrelevant.
Shadow Banking Derivatives Bomb: Wall Street wants no regulation of this $670 trillion, high-risk, out-of-control casino that’s highly leveraged versus the $50 trillion total GDP of all nations. We forget that derivatives almost destroyed global economies in 2008-09, finally will by 2012.
Medicare, Medicaid, SCHIP, Social Security, Welfare, Workfare: Bankrupt.
Post Office: Bankrupt.
Fannie Mae, Sallie Mae; Freddie Mac : Bankrupt.
Interest on Debt: 10% of statutory budget at historic interest rate lows.
Amtrak: Bankrupt.
FDIC: Bankrupt.
What you don’t seem to get is they are bribing you with your own money while skimming off the top and operate an illegal Fedzilla cartel that vastly exceeds constitutional limits of power.
Fool and liar.
We are being picked clean by this wannabe Chavez and the parasites who feed off the sweat of our backs.
Liberty goes hand-in-hand with private property. “Redistribution” destroys wealth and societies and creates misery.
Only in this country would a politician get away with saying something so obviously false and have his partisan defend it! Obama is losing most of his support not from the bad economy, because we knew that going in. But because he continues to think us too stupid to see through this political posturing and yes, LIES! In any private sector job he could never get away with such obfuscation yet as a politician, even more specific as a Democrat he is actually defended by the press and media. This is truly theater of the absurd….
with his High level of Acumen, Obama is a poerfect Candidate to buy the BROOKLYN Bridge… Proof that spending too much time in College fraternizung with Communists did not teach him either to be Honest, Speak Factually nor having amodicum of expertize on REAL ECONOMICS…
Traitor liar cheater seditionist Obama.
“Save us from depression”? So, what are we in now? (besides major debt).
Anybody out there feel “stimulated” ?
Are you kidding us or do you think all Americans are stupid. Tell you dreamtalk to all those folks who are out of work,
It’s amazing that some posters here are plants..still trying to sell us on Obumbler! Amazing, but stupid!
The jig is up…we KNOW who Obumbler is, we KNOW what Obumbler is doing to this country, and more importantly..WE KNOW HOW TO FIX IT…..IMPEACH OBUMBLER!
Anyone with any economic knowledge knows that NO stimulus (spending and tax cuts)would have allowed the Great Recession to become a Depression. Some of President Obama critics are just perpetually petulant. Senator Bayh was spot on about his comments on Congress. The Obstructionist are part of the problem.
Biden says ‘I’ve never seen this government so disfunctional’..
Joe’s finally got it right…this administration IS DISFUNCTIONAL!
VOTE THEM ALL OUT! The only reason Biden says that Obama and Biden is ‘alright, but Congress isn’t”? That’s only because it’s another 3 years before we vote these morons out!!!!!
We have an emty suit(Obama) and an empty head(Biden) blowing smoke in the public eyes
to hide their stupidity and lies.
The top 1 percent also has more than the bottom 95 percent COMBINED! So I’m sorry if I think it is fair that they pay 40 percent of all taxes.
I’ve concluded that BarryO is just a typical sociopath. He will do or say anything to get to his goal. Truth or honor have no bearing on his decisions. Consistency is irrelevant. He is not able to distinguish truth from lies and he liberally spouts lies each and every day. Campaign promises?? Hah!! He probably hasn’t tried to keep even one of them.
How can someone like this expect to gain hold of a second term in the White House?
It’s uncanny to me that the voters of our nation out THIS in office!!!!
More B.S. just watch what they do and not what they say. Really, It was healthcare, then health reform. It was global warming, now climate change. classic marketing. Create or saved. they added the saved part for the numbers. Then come to find out saved was anyone that got a raise.
Now he says he is o.k. with Nuclear. Its a gimmick, he peeps alone will block it. Follow what they do and not what he says.
What a joke. We are all awake, no more snow jobs and getting things past us.. The media is alseep.
Understandably the world neede change. Everyone has to change sometime. But, they do it fro the better not for the worse….. moron
If the “stimulus” saved us, they why is it that fully half of all the jobs created in 2009 were created in Texas, a state that ranked 49th on receipt of stimulus money?
Leave it to Obama bin Biden to make such an outlandish claim.
This from the guy who said unemployment would stay under 8%. Lies, lies, all he does is lie and oh yes, spend money. I’m tired of supporting him and all his cronies! Hey guys when was the last time you spent as much as he spent to take your wife out for a nice evening? I could have bought and paid off my house almost for what he spent. Oh sorry, what we spent so he could take her out! When is the maddness going to stop, hopefully soon beacuse we’re not going to last much longer at this rate. How many more leaders can he bowed down to and sell his soul to? What a joke he is!
I live in Naperville Illinois and we have a sign proclaiming that a local project is being funded by the American Re-investment act…. This project is a “river walk” trail in a nature area and no work has been done other than the placement of the sign. We have a record national debt and this is the solution? A park trail. Give me a break. Can we make it to 300 years without another revolution?
What a blowhard! When is he out of there? He will go down as the worst one term president (noticed I didn’t show him the respect of a capital “P”) in history. The White House and Congress is a joke and laughing stalk of the world. God be with us.
just watch this link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJu0DgpiK8c
We lost more jobs as a result of the stimulus than had we done nothing at all.
Do you think all the snow in D.C. has anything to do with the snowjob coming from the White House and Congress? Just sayin’!
unemployment under Bush was 4.5% Please Please Mr President STOP SAVING US
All I see from Mr. Obama is denial and political pandering. I guess Mr Obama has never made a mistake, because you cannot learn if you do not admit your mistakes. This is really bad.
Pardon me if all I can do is laugh hysterically at Obama who believes that just because he says it, it must be true. He does NOT live in the real world and is delusional in trying to convince us that his way is working. Tell it to all the people out here who are losing their homes, losing their jobs, losing their retirement….all because this man is nothing more than a campaigner/teleprompter reader. He can raise goosebumps on people’s arms with his speeches and flowery rhetoric, but he has no leadership skills and cannot work with people or get people to work with him. Blaming other people while you tell lies is NOT leadership.
Even if the Dems impeached Obama they couldn’t save themselves from what is coming. They backed the wrong horse excuse me I mean jack-ass.
All this man does is lie from the moment he wakes up til the moment he goes to sleep.
It’s pathetic.
He either is a complete moron or he is truly delusional and mentally ill.
I would be most interested to hear from people who voted for Obama and who now see the light. What prompted you to vote for someone so obviously unqualified to be elected President and who had such bizarre and dangerous friends and associates? What do you think now? What turned you off to Obama?
That’s the funniest thing I have heard in a long time…”saved us”. Please stop saving me, and keep your trillion dollar debt. Jackass.
THIS is being saved?!?!?! George Orwell is spinning in his grave, while Josef Goebbels is tap dancing in his!
When I see him now, all I can think of is “YOU LIE”!
Obama’s stimulus having saved us is a myth no different than: the easter bunny, tooth fairy, santa clauses factory at the north pole, etc… Democrats know ignorant people (like children) are easily fooled, sadly, we let the profoundly ignorant vote here in America… and they out number those of us that are informed… viola Obama is president.
And I thought George Bush was stupid. Wow this guy is delusional.
Come on people, who are you going to believe? Obama? or Your lying eyes?
More “hoax & chains”.
Mr President, you forgot to mention that only 1/3 of the stimulus money has been used. And that the balance is being held back to try to save your parties majority in the House and Senate.
We do not beleive a word that you say. According to CNN 52% want you out of office, my guess is that number is closer to 65%.
We see through your you “smoke and mirrors” Sir.
How long do you have to lie about something before it becomes the truth? Is this guy taking drugs or what? WE DON’T BELIEVE YOU, YOU IDIOT!
The ellusionist speaking to his dellutionists! This kenyan lies more than hitler!
Name just one job created in the private sector. We are all famaliar with the thousands of jobs created in government and in the government educational system. However, these jobs will be financed by the taxpayer like all of them.
Show me the money.
This Obama has wrecked this country and has wrecked the future of my children and grandchildren. I will never forgive him and has leftist cronnies. Obama may go down in history as one of the most hated men in US history.
You people at Reuters are fools for supporting this nation destoryer and traitor to our Constitution.
This clown will never admit he’s an abject failure. The stimulus was nothing but pork that created few jobs, and most of it hasn’t even been spent yet. He, Reid, and Pelosi are the biggest liars that I have ever seen in D.C., and if the voters use their brains for something besides keeping their heads from collapsing, all of the liberals and RINOs will be sent packing.
Talk, talk, talk. Sorry Obama, we got your number. And we’re laughing at you.
Since it appears no one trusts Obama to save them from the bad economy, why not stop complaining and get out and work for yourself instead of waiting for someone else to hire you. Buy your own business at www.buyabusiness.com
Boy, if we keep spending like this we should be out of debt in no time.
Can you say egotistical narcissistic megalomaniac?
I’m feeling the love for Obama with these comments.
What does Obama have to promise you to win back your affections for his super leadership? Government cheese for life? Free euthanasia in Obamacare? An end to anyone having more than you? Rich people finally paying their fair share? More subsidies from your children’s earnings to get you through the perpetual Obama depression?
Jobs saved or created? With all the jobs Obama saved and created, the unemployment went up. Did my public school teacher learn me wrong or is it just black magic that when you make more of something there is really less of it?
He is such a liar!
See, e.g., http://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/01/20/the-end-of-barack-obama/ and http://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/01/01/barack-obama-america%E2%80%99s-second-emperor/
Hogwash. Get real Mr. POTUS. We as a nation do not believe anything you say. If you come out and say it’s a sunny day, we’ll all look outside for ourselves.
I think the POTUS pooped in his pants and would say anything to go get some new trousers.
That strong B+ that you generously gave yourself is actually an F – as in F.U.
Does Obama realize we are no longer wearing rose colored glasses? We KNOW him now. He is not fooling anyone with his smooth talking campaign speeches.
another day of obama kool-aid boarding us. when is it goona end? between him and biden this country is
another day of obama kool-aid boarding us. when is it goona end? between him and biden this country is
You wrote that “Obama, in a White House speech, said he believed the stimulus will save or create 1.5 million jobs in 2010 after saving or creating as many as 2 million jobs thus far.” “Obama has much work to do to convince Americans who are still struggling to find work amid a 9.7 percent jobless rate.” “A CBS News/New York Times poll last week found that only 6 percent of Americans believed the package had created jobs.”
The Obama Administration would probably be well-served to focus on the jobs created during its time in office. Its statements about the number of jobs saved, which varies depending on which Administration official is speaking, is unusual in that other administrations did not make similar claims and the number of jobs saved is rather difficult to quantify.
Remember the Three Stooges…Moe, Larry, and Curly? Well we have Barry, Nancy, and Harry. Only, this time, the joke is on us. God help us.
Wow you people(critics) are nuts!!! Where do you come up with this stuff.The Bill worked and will continue to work. Sorry it didnt happend quick enough for you impateint americans
Double down on the lie O-dumba$$. Hey all you mushy skulled Obots, wanna know why God doesn’t answer all your prayers? It’s because he loves you. Well Obama was the answer to all your prayers to a false deity “Lord Obama” and he’s delivering on every promise he ever made about socialism. Man I love the pain, suffering, homelessness and destroyed lives. Some lessons deserve to be delivered via a sledge hammer so that you’ll remember it. Peace out OBOTS.
Everyone knows what BO is, was, and still stinks.
while this President once more congratulates his mirror, the rest of the country faces reality. They are creating their own recovery
Stimulus is working?
Merck announces layoffs of 15,000
Home depot 1,000
wal Mart 1,000
Boston scientific 1200
Ford 900
the list goes on
The administration can only point to “Jobs saved”, mostly government jobs.
The man is an idiot. We have screwed up, big time….Obama and most of Congress have never operated so much as a lemonade stand. They have no clue!
show the jobs????????
they can not do it.
all BS i do not belive any numbers the Gov. puts out.
talk to people on the street, then you
know whats really going on.
housing up, we had 10,000 forclosures last month.
now there bull is up to 2mill. jobs,
all a big joke.
2010/2012
HAY GUYZ. IT’S GONNA BE ALRIGHT!! OBAMA SAID WE’RE ALL GOING TO MAKE BATTERIES!! GREEN JOBS FOR EVERYONE!!
I’m actually starting to feel sorry for the guy a little bit.
if the “stimulas money” was so critical…
why is much of it “unspent”? amazing…..
i think you can spell it… “save it to stimulate the 2012 obama re-election campaign”!
obama’s problem was continuing with the bush bailout! obama should have never bailed out the rich boy bankers! he should have bailed out non-flipping homeowners on the verge of losing their homes!
Lies, more lies and damn lies.
They can’t tell us the truth!
What a pathetic liar! He so full of shit!
Only the idiots on the left could believe this trash.
The only Stimulated Jobs By Oblahblah and his Lemmings were the Government jobs created to promote more Inefficiency in the Oblahblah Vote Getting Politburo and the ones that he ” saved” for the Unions by Wasting BILLIONS in the purchase of Governmant Motors and allowing FIAT to gain Control on Chrysler…
And he wants to Bull Crap us into beleiving his additional Camnpaign lies…FOOL ME ONCE, Shame on Me… FOOL ME TWICE… NEVER >> on to 4 Nov 2010 1nd 2012 for REAL CHANGES if We Can Survive the Propaganda Machine of Axelrod and the Incomptence of the Administration…
What is Obama on? Is he totally delusional?
They’re in full “Baghdad Bob” mode over there at the Obama WH.
There is no doubt in my mind that this narcissist actually believes his own lies. I think he believes all of them, from “no more earmarks” to “C-Span coverage of the health care (insurance, industry, reform, or care) debate.”

For awesome penny stock referrals
Does anyone think Obama himself believes he is doing a good job?
I knew it, I found it.. it was only a matter of time that some Progressive Libturd called Republicans Racists for having the temerity of calling out Oblahblah as a Narcist Inept …. Oh well may be the Prgressive one needs more TEA cups to see that the WINDS OF CHNGE are becoming a full Gale by 4 Nov 2010..and a full Hurricane by 4 Nov 2012…
Most of the jobs “saved” by the stimulus are unionized government jobs.
We need a new version of the Reagan-era Grace Commission to review the need for each government job.
I GOT YOUR STIMULUS OBAMA RIGHT HERE!……………………..SWINGING!!!
http://www.breitbart.tv/the-b-cast-interview-was-obama-a-committed-marxist-in-college/
Does this guy ever stop lying? Does he think we are all stupid? The ecomomy is still in the tank. millions out of work, homes at recorded numbers still going into forclsure, houses not selling and values reduced dramatically and we should believe him? This guy only knows how to campaign campaign campaign and he is still doing except now at the American peoples expense!! These politicians have to go before he wipes out half of American lives and destroys our country. People are going to start dying from lack of food and shelter due to what these politicians have done to our country. VOTE THEM OUT IN NOVEMBER!!!!
Dillusional whack-job. He thinks if he says it is so, then it is…or should be. He thought his sweet talking, bowing and scraping to our enemies of the world would solve all the problems. Like an old snake oil salesman…he’s got the cure for what ails you just because he says it is the cure.
Givinh him an F is an Insult to all NON working Census Job applicants that took Money for training and never showed up later just to screw Obama largesse and incompetence…. THat is F as in FRAUD.. yep more Wasted Money.
I give obama a J as in JACKASS…
BO’s narcissism has caused him to lose touch with reality. He’s truly a legend in his own mind.
“we have rescued this economy from the worst of this crisis”
Simply put…Bulls%@t.
This whole crisis was caused by greedy politicians. Americans except the rich, wall streeet and politicians have lost almost everything they had saved because of the greed of these politicians. Now they want to reduce socal security which Americans paid into for years. Are they going to cut their salaries in half – they better this has gotten too out of hand.
Obama aka Barry S convinces no one. Most of the money is unspent, awaiting some brainless scheme yet to be considered.
Obviously, OBS [conflation of his two names] thinks we are those “gun clingers and church goers” who spoke of in derision during the campaign.
Well, we are those things but for those reasons we are not stupid or trust the Muslim from Indonesia or Kenya via Harvard and points between.
The only job this Socialist President has created, he has created over and over again. The Snow Job!
This fool has lost touch with the American people …. it has become an open checkbook for him to spend spend …. the government is bigger and the people STILL hurt …. enough of worrying about all these other countries …. FIX AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
trusty @ 11:06am nailed it. Oblahblah thinks if he talks long enough and fast enough, you won’t notice the difference between TARP, which was supposed to rescue the financial sector and stave off another Depression, and the Porkulus, which was supposed to create jobs. Now I don’t believe TARP was necessary or cost-effective, but if you do, then you have to give credit to Bush and Paulson. Can’t wait to see the next round of polls that shows nobody bought Oblahblah’s tired talk-talk act.
If this idiot thru his so called commission starts cutting social security benefits he better start cutting salaries and benefits for any federal employy, himself and every senator and house member. The perks such as Nancy Pelosi taking family trips all over the world at our expense better stop also. All the perks these guys are enjoying must also stop. This would save millions also. Obama also needs to stop going on all his campaign trips all over the country at our expense to just to tote his lies!!!!
Barry Sotero, STFU!
You Lie!
No end to audacity…
There is old wisdom: “Good thing praise itself”
So there is no need for defense speeches. Because fiasco is evident and no wonder…
Consequences of all damage done are still to be seen, and please, not all A. are that stupid. We already know what we would hear and also know what to expect. Nothing good, that’s for sure. Only sure change is that left in our pockets.
This guy is really spookie. I think he may be off his rocker. To many Rev. Wright moments maybe
Well, nobody else is defending it so I guess he has to do it himself.
Check out this hilarious parody on Obama’s economic strategies: http://www.narf.tv/?p=416
Come on now, be good to this little commie, remember he has never really been in the work force.
What good is a job created if it only lasts three months? What will the union man do for the other nine months? Unemployment benefits?
Stimulus package was the biggest heist in US history.
It did however save two things:
The money market funds and Paulsons and his brothers pension from Goldman’s. Everything else was a complete failure
I have a hard time believing that all of you who are slamming Obama are employed. Most likley considering the unemployment rate 9.7 of you are not. For those who are unemployed and are accepting unemployment benifits every 2 weeks, i say on behalf of Obama, YOUR WELCOME! Stop complaining when you are being helped.
Obama “I saved 10,000,000 jobs! So let it be written so let it be done”
We are mere mortals how dare you question the mighty OBAMA! ON YOUR KNEES PEONS!
Check out the new version of “Mmm Mmm Mmm Barack Hussein Obama” at: www.myspace.com/rogerweber
You’ll get a laugh!
The only jobs saved were union and politican jobs. So Big Deal!
Permatrip “You people are crazy! Obama is doing a great job!”
Carefull you could drown swallowing that much cool-aid. How do you drink so much cool-aid with your nose in obamas behind?
Permatrip “i say on behalf of Obama, YOUR WELCOME! Stop complaining when you are being helped.”
YES! Thank You OBAMA for enabling me to be on unemployment! If it were not for you I would HAVE A JOB!
ON YOUR KNEES PEONS THE GREAT OBAMA HAS SPOKEN through his shill “Permatrip”
Permatrip:
Unemployment is more like 20%+. Don’t forget when unemployment benefits runs out is is no longer counted as unemployed.
Only goal of Barry is to be come head of the UN so he can think he rules the world. Barry hates America.
Grudgingly I will admit that TARP may have saved the economy, though I despise the unconstituionality of the act. But it is a trick of the left to get those who must admit that TARP saved the economy to confuse that with the Stimulus Bill, which has done NOTHING except fund unions such as SEIU.
Dr-who, If you cant see the truth for what it is then thats your fault. Sure he could be doing a better jobs, but for that the republicans would have to let him. Stop obstructing and do somthing!
Barry dis a great job giving Taiwan 6.8bil in weapons, now the Chinese are pissed at us and are giving weapons to Syria and other enemies. Not only that the Chinese are dumping US securities. Great job Barry. Increased the Bush deficit by 4x, unemployment increased by 5x.Inflation will be out of control soon enough.
Plain and simple Bush left us with this huge mess we are in, sure lets blame the man trying to fix the problems. What is it you people think would have happend if their was no stimulus money? Would our economy magicly fix itself? would jobs have been saved? would people out of jobs still be recieving unemployment benifits? Open your eyes people!
teapartynews
TARP did not save the economy, money was given to the strong banks and was suppose to be used to buy the toxic paper. Instead it was don’t ask don’t tell just like the military view on gays. They used the money to speculate and pump up the the stock market 60%. The toxic paper is still on the books, they just transferred it to the FED. If they had used it to clean up the books it would have helped. Don’t forget 13bil that went to AIG to pass down to Goldman to save Paulsons pension
Permatrip:
Who is in control of both houses again?
The arrogance of Obama is surpassed ONLY by his utter incompetence. His election reveals the Achilles Heel of a “democratic election” – especially when ACORN is part of the equation, but in nay case…
Liar. The stimulus didn’t save us from anything! We still have to endure Obama.
This man is a joke, and a waste of flesh.
The Navy already has a ship on the drawing boards with Obama’s name on it;
The U.S.S. Bankrupt; it’s a garbage barge filled with all the I.O.U’s we owe to the world.
The fact that Obama, Biden and the rest have to go out to the public and explain how great the plan was is proof that it didn’t work. Its one year later and nothing has actually changed, except the American people owe one trillion more than we did at this time last year.
Dr who-Its not obamas fault you have no job stop blaming him
Vinko-Your right about the 20% unemployment, and yes the dem control both houses, but they lost thier super majority, and with republicans saying no and standing untied to stop all legislation
If you listen to the lies of the Republican politicians and right-wing commentators and the Tea Party no-nothings, you will probably believe that the Administration hasn’t done the right thing. But you’ll be wrong. Get the facts. The market is up because of a better outlook for the economy- no thanks to the Republicans.
What a joke! Has anybody else noticed that all of this stimulus money has only gone to fund government employees and government projects? Where is the stimulus for the REAL economy – the people and small business owners? If Obama lost 4 million jobs in 1 year – how can he say he “saved or created” 2 million? The only jobs “saved” were government taxpayer funded jobs. Sure, preserve big government – screw the people.

It “saved us?” Unemployment went from 6.5% to over 10% with no end in sight. Small businesses are boarded up all over the country – Save us from more O-bozo.
If $787B of stimulus ‘created or saved’ 2B jobs (today’s estimate; subject to change hourly), then if my math is right, that’s $393,500 per job. WOW!
Permatrip – really? Republicans don’t have the power to stop ANYTHING! The Democrats still have the majority – they can pass ANYTHING they want. The supermajority was only needed to stop a filibuster. Until the Brown election – for the past 2 years the Republicans could not mount a filibuster and stop anything at all. For the past 4 years the Dems have been in total control and could have passed ANYTHING they wanted. The Democratic controlled Congress is what caused this mess. You people really need to get off this blame Bush for everything kick – no one is buying it anymore. Stop blaming the Republicans – they can all go home for the next year since they have no voice at all. You apparently have no clue how our government works
Where are the results? And, even if he gave us results, who would believe them? Its a shame that the POTUS has absolutely zero credibility with a majority of his constituents
Whatever you people are rediculouse. Im gona laugh my ass off when obama wins a second term. Obama 2012!
Everyone here is saying obama is liying. What is a bigger lie, the stimulus money is working? Or Iraq had weapons of Mass destruction? After you answer that ask yourselfs what lie actually cost more.
What a bimbo!
My God, is there no end to this bum’s lies? If anything good happens in this country, it has nothing to do with Obummer. He’s a liar. He’s a fake. I hope he fails because if he doesn’t, then our country will fail.
He’s a loser, the worst president ever. This guy has set back African Americans for years and years. There will never be another elected in this or the next generation. Spending, trip’s, corruption, what a mess. What a mistake. buh bye Obummer.
billnan46
get the facts, the market is up because the 350bil that went to the bank for “capital investment” which was suppose to be loaned out, went for speculation. Instead the banks bought each other stocks, commodities and pumped up the stock market 60%. That is the fact, this economy is a farce.
Permatrip
Iraq is a fact, stimulus is a lie. Now Obama is trying to take credit for Iraq.
What the voters need to do this coming election cycle is to really purge Washington from all the crappy politicians. That means voting out all Republicans. American need to cleanse themselves from corporate thugs the Republican party loves to dance with.
www.thethrifters.net
Permatrip,
Obama doesn’t want to be president, he won’t even run once he becomes head of the UN. Obama hates America
What a pathological liar! How can Obama say with a straight face that the stimulus bill contained no earmarks. Unbelievable.
You’re more than able to donate any stimulus money you receive if you feel it is useless. Hell even give it back to the government if you want.
TheThrifter
Funny isn’t it,seems to be happening now, starting with that ex-drunk Kennedy, he’s been sober for six months now. Republicans blame big government, democrats blame corporate America. We need to get rid of the entire crew. They are in bed with each other anyway.
Mahakala
Just ask Murtha about earmarks, oh wait forgot you can’t,he took his lies with him to the grave.
barack, steve, barry of whatever his name is, is delusional. He must talk to all of his personalities to get advice,.this man needs to be impeached before bankrupts our country and turns it into a socialistic islamic state
Would someone give Chris Matthews something to clean some bodily fluid off his leg?
What a waste of tax payers dollars and what audacity to continue to parade in front of the media as if anything he is doing is a success. Excuse while I throw up!
Anybody who believes this guy, please contact me. I have some bridges for sale.
The problem is that he’s off his Thorazine.
The big government and presidential bubbles are soon to burst. Watch for the stock market to lose over 50% of its value this year and for Obama to be ejected from office in 2011.
The future will be difficult, but true hope and change is on the horizon

Impeach and Imprison!!
These are educated people. They are not pathetic or delusional. They are intentionally trying to crash the U.S. Economy. This is not incompetence it is treason.
All I can say is if we don’t replace these traitors in the mid-terms god help us. I have never been a big conspiracy theory person, but I must either believe they are certifiably insane, or they are intentionally trying to destroy an prospect of the U.S. being a free economic and political power.
Scary either way!
Obama is intentionally trying to destroy the U.S. economy. He is not stupid. If he can ramp up the pace, he may be able to create some reason to declare an emergency so we don’t get to vote in the Mid-terms. There you go…bye bye to the Constitutional Republic and hello Banana Republic.
No, America work ethic and perseverance saved us! Not you and your “stimulus” Barack!
Hey USAUSAUSA!
You need to change your name to: USSR_USSR_USSR!!!
No one believes you anymore, Mr. Obama.
Nobama=No Better than bush** and the rest of the globalists clowns.

Got that right.
These comments are absurd and incredibly cynical. If we want the credibility to criticize the president (whether it be bush or obama), our arguments can’t be mindless. I expected a bit more from Reuters readers.
WHERE ARE THE JOBS?
There is a distinct difference between saving and creating. And the only jobs I see being created are those in government and probably being given to Obama’s supporters. How many have been created in the private sector?
NOBODY KNOWS! NOT EVEN THE LORD HIGH BARACK!
Can’t wait until November.
The TARP program was the only thing that was needed, it’s been paid back by 90 percent of the banks. The rest was just a hot steaming pile… most of it counter productive. Counting government spending in the GDP is crock
Pull up your pant legs; It’s too late to save the shoes!
Okay so if we spend the full $787,000,000,000.00 we can save 3,500,000 jobs so thats only about $200,000.00 for each job saved. and this is good for us how?
I love how most people miss the most simple point to all this.
Government + spending = DOOM
westy88 what gives you the right to expect more from Reuters readers? Most Americans are fed up with this administration and President – if you do not like the comments than do not read them. We have a right to our opinions and how this President is ruining our country!!!
what a bunch of crap. obama has abolished the 13th ammendment. he has enslaved the children to massive debt.
Truth be told, my dog and I are actually responsible for saving the economy. About a year ago I went in my backyard and picked up all the droppings my dog had left over the winter and buried them in the flower bed. Ever since then the economy has slowly been picking up so it is obvious I am the ONE who saved us. And I can honestly say that I have just as much proof of that as President Obama does for his plan.
moronpolitics:
If the TARP had been used as intended it would have been beneficial, but in the last minute Paulson changed his mind and gave the money to the banks. Only reason the banks paid back the TARP money early is because Geitner made a deal with them that the banks would be able to basically write the new regulations the dems are talking about. Geitner needed the money to give to the states who by law are not allowed to carry a deficit.
Borat
The way to create jobs is to give the money to the strong companies and let the weak go under. Instead they did just the opposite, made strong companies weaker. Example is Ford, they didn’t take the money so the government punished them.
Obama is not doing a good job!!!!! He needs to come back to planet earth. He is destroying this country. I would like him to live on limited income like I have to. GET REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Obama—– THANK YOU SIR, MAY WE HAVE ANOTHER!? I only hope we can survive another year, until we have control of congress to stop this train wreck.
What do you expect from a bunch of former pot heads? Sanity in government? Not hardly. All we have is what we sowed in the 1960’s and 1970’s.
May I have another toke, Mr. President, so I will begin to understand?
Read “New Lies for Old” by Anatoliy Golitzyn so you can learn about the derangement of the leftist mind. Then, you will understand BHO better.
Our first black president is becoming a laughingstock. I’ll never vote Democrat again!
Hey BIG SPENDER! So the stimulus is what saved us even though most of it hasn’t been spent. (No worries, liberals never have any trouble spending our money) So what’s it going to do to us when we have to pay it back?
Nobody should be confused. Obama knows exactly what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. This speech is just the latest “Obama Middle Finger to America”. It’s the perfect follow up to taking credit for the success of the Iraq war.
Oh wonderful… More HOPEY/CHANGEY stuff!
Somebody close to Obummer needs to explain to him NEVER to use this “saved or created” junk phrase anymore!!!
We lose 3.3 Million jobs, qw “save or create” between 900k and 2 million – I’m looking at a pretty big net loss!
You all are showing your ignorance about money. Trillions were lost in the meltdown. The Fed pumped in a few dollars to stop the slide. As much as I dislike BO, he is telling the truth on this one and our beloved Rush is wrong.
Don’t believe me? Read this.
http://notesonmoney.wordpress.com/about/
if you had stock in citi bank bank of america crysler and so on,im sure you would save those jobs too, wake up america ok you now have the 1st black pres,i was the cool thing to do,now youll all pay for doing the rite thing
impeach and imprison!
I think this should be taken into mind….

I don’t know about the rest of you but I miss Jimmy Carter!
US conservatism has screwed the US for the past 30 years. Normal people are anti-labor, anti-government, and anti-regulation. These are all things that could help them, but instead they vote for idiot Republicans that hate government, and prove it by making it completely incompetent.
I’m so glad I live in Europe. In all the rich European countries, people here gets more vacation time, access to health care that’s better and cheaper than what most Americans get. In the US, a person can go bankrupt for being sick!!! The US has turned into a third rate country. Keep on voting for Republicans/Tea Parties you morons! You’ll get screwed unless you realize the interest of the top 1% richest elite is not the same as the interest of 90% of people.
Tax the rich, provide services and education for the rest of the people, regulate and demand higher wages. It makes a better society.
I am basically at loss to understand how digging a hole and filling it back up stimulates the economy. What happens when there is no industrial growth and the stimulus money runs out. I think DISASTER.
SHOW ME THE CAR FAX!
Saved us… who?
Wall Street is saved, the City of London is saved, etc.
While homelessness is on the rise.
Oh goody, thank you oh mighty politicians.
HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaROFLHaHAHaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHROFL – Freak
I want to see the proof of the 2 million ‘created of saved’ jobs. Such male bovine feces! He sure didn’t save mine.
When is Mr Obama from Kenya going to quit lying to us? Prove your figures or shut up!
The President is NOT listening to the American people. Check out this site for a down to earth look at the state this country is in http://crosssection.wordpress.com/
Enough with the camouflaged ignorance of selling to the american people the notion that the stimulus has not created or saved jobs the american people deserve better. The Republican party is hell bent on sending us into a depression regardless by not working with President Obama to better this country intead of playing politics.
P.T. Barnum said “You can’t fool all of the people all of teh time”. but BO sure tries.
Funny, but I don’t feel rescued. Anyone feeling rescued?
This guy is a lying sneaker full of puppy poop…a puppet for Chicago thug politicos….What an empty suit…
Fummy Timomg for anotyher proof that the Dufus in CHarge and his head nodding Lemming have NO CLUE!! Unemployment is still rising , including those who Stopped looking for jobs who are NOT counted the numbers are between 18-10% and these two Morons are claiming success for the Stymulus??? TIME TO TELL RGHEM TO PUT A CORK IN IT AND STOP BULL SHITTING … We, and I hope they get it< are not really as stupid as they believe ...We Get it.. THEY DONT>>>>
Does anyone care what this man-child has to say? I’ve never been so sick of seeing anyone’s face in my life! He says the same things over and over…..and yet does nothing. Go home, Mr. Obama and don’t come back!
Hussein Obama should be impeached and deported back to his home town of Mombasa, Kenya. p.u.
His job-earned/saved logic came from the same folks that did the “global warming” logic……….your math sucks, Mr. President!!!!!!
Your looking at the evidence daily. We are in a recession and not a depression. 10% un-employement is not the same as 25% un-employement. If the banks collapsed we would definitely be in a depression no doubt about it. Its how this made up currency game works. Sad but true.
Obama and the Progressives are ENEMY DOMESTIC
The ribbon cutting ceremony argument is stupid. What about all those congressmen that enjoyed the Bush Tax Cuts. Did democratic congressmen that voted against the tax cut, return the money to the treasury…i doubt it.
You people should forgive Obama for being black and get on with your lives.
If old Barry would have just given me just 1/787th of this package, I could have saved or created mor jobs than his bill.
Patience is not easy when you are yearning for things to change. I have family members who haven’t worked in two years. I want to believe that things are getting better, but I haven’t experienced it personally.

NO ONE BELIEVES YOU obama AND WE CAN PROVE IT
It would be nice if Obama acted like the President of the United States instead of Chairman of the Democratic Party.
Going, Going, GONE! Enjoy your one term while it lasts Mr Obama
you a lie
Obama never says what he means and he never means what he says. Obama is destroying our economy while at the same time defending his dismal leadership. He is like the fireman that sets the fire and shows up in the crowd and then proclaims, “I’ll put it out!” This man is more dangerous than Al Queda to our country. He is destroying it from within and if you Obama supporters don’t wake up, you are surely are going to be in a world of hurt when you start seeing this disaster unfold upon you and your family. Wait till you see the price of a gallon of milk this time next year.
Almost a trillion dollars to save less than 1% of the U.S. population’s jobs…How is that not wasteful???
Obama is lying about the funding and building of nuclear plants. It is a ruse to get Republicans to sign on to the Cap & Tax scam. OBAMA DOES NOT WANT NUCLEAR POWER….IT IS A LIE. HE KNOWS HIS LEFTIST PUNDITS WILL VOTE AGAINST IT. Spread the word.
Obama is deliberately imploding our economy in order to institute a government take over and the creation of a Obama police state. Obama never says what he means and he never means what he says. He is a statist marxist narcissist. He is more dangerous to America than Al Queda.
“Nothing could go this wrong in this country in this amount of time without a reason behind it”. –Rush Limbaugh today
All I can see is an expanding government. This expansion increases our burden without benefit. To save our economy we should cut all government budgets, except for defense, by 15%.
Stimulus saved us from depression? Wasn’t that TARPs so called job? Stimulus was to keep unemployment from going above 8%, oops that didn’t work out so well.
Stimulus all it did was bail out some state budgets. 2/3rd of it unspent and is Obama’s slush fund to buy off votes.
Is there anyone out there who thinks Obama would be able to handle an assistant manager position with a Taco Bell?
Obama is a complete idiot!! he couldn’t run a cool-aid stand without running it into debt.
This is pure politics playing on the part of Republicans.
To begin with, the deficit ballooned under Bush administration; and for the financial crisis, it developed over the years, from the Reagan through Bush administration, including Clinton, who were all partially responsible for the 2008 debacle. If Bush hadn’t had to leave the office, he would have(as a matter of fact, the $700 billion or so stimulus was something Bush administration initiated) done pretty much the same thing. Let’s say Bush had stayed on, would these whiners whine this much? I am pretty sure the answer is No.
To be fair, the $787 billion stimulus did save us from a worse scenario. Of course, you may always say that Obama can’t prove the stimulus’s effectiveness. Of course he can’t, since what you are asking for is a reality where the whole country is in a tailspin. But should the worst be the reality, God forbid, the whiners would still attribute that to the sitting president, since he is a democrat.
And that’s pure politics.
Barry Soetoro is deliberately destroying the private sector of our economy. Instead of creating jobs, he intends to create dependancy. Instead of leadership, he offers dictatorship. Obama is more dangerous to our country than Al Queda. He is destroying our country from within while lying about it. He never says what he means and he never means what he says.
If the stimulus was intended to restore growth to the economy it would have been spent during 2009 and revived demand and employment. Instead it was spread over several years and focused entirely on growing government. This stimulus had nothing to do with restoring the economy and everything to do with advancing socialism in the US – and the results demonstrate it.
If that’s the case… explain how. Why is it that this administrations figures and statistics are continually proven to be either exaggerated or just outright fabricated? If the bill did such a good job of creating jobs, explain in detail how this is a cost-effective means of job creation… and if we truly do get $1.10 back from every $1.00 the government spends of our money, why don’t we just give them all of it?
Since all local newspapers quote the AP directly, this means that all their info is just as twisted and meaningless.
For an alternate view: try your own back porch.
we Americans are delusional
if we think this problem can
be fixed in a year .
I really enjoy how all these crybaby conservatives come to whine about the current administration on Reuters.
I enjoy even more that Obama-lovers are jilting President Bloop as they realize the monstre he is.
