James Pethokoukis Blog Archive 12 reasons unemployment is going to (at least) 12 percent | Blogs |

I guess that $790 billion stimulus package really works! It managed to see that it get *over* 8% unemployment rate. Wow. Obama's a genius! A 150 day Senator on the job wonder man turned president!

I had seen too many of your post about stimulus package so quit being BS at us.

Mod, please merge this thread to somewhere that has related with title.

kokonut · 11-12-2009, 12:12 AM

Obama said that *with* the stimulus package it would help keep unemployment at around 8%. The link and discussion are quite relevant to the stimulus package as it was meant, hope against hope, that it would quickly help with the unemployment situation. Hence, the word "stimulus".....

kokonut · 11-12-2009, 09:25 AM

Hmmm, NYTimes blames workers for the rising unemployment problem.

kokosan, you got your percentage wrong...it's 12% NOT 11%

Eve · 11-12-2009, 09:36 AM

and possibly even 13%

rockin'robin · 11-12-2009, 09:46 AM

I read where shop lifting is on the rise due to the recession/jobless.....I also wonder if more violent crimes are being committed due to the mess we are in.......

I wouldn't be surprised. It would be logical to see that happening. Also, during heat waves the number of violent crimes also increase. FREE AC for everybody! I wonder if people would afford to run it because of the Cap and Trade law if passed?

As I pointed out in another topic area, Obama makes himself look bad. He needs no help.

Then why is kokonut the only one beating the drum (posting Obama-related topics) on Deaf forums?

He's not. He's just the most vocal about it.

No, man and Obama is just fine.

First of all, I am not a man and never have been, as I suspect the same might be said for you.

Second, what has been posted here is not a "bunch of right wing lies", but facts. I am sorry that you are incapable of recognizing the difference, but that does not detract from it's authenticity.

1) Sorry, I don't know that you are woman.

2) None of your post are fact and you just love to bash at Obama as always.

I have posted sufficient documentation on many of my postings.

No, I don't consider your post as fact until we see 12% unemployment.

Eve · 11-12-2009, 05:02 PM

The fact is that unemployment is already at 10.2%, the highest it has been in decades. What koko has posted is that it is expected to reach 12%, not that it is already there.

I will believe when I see 12% and it don't going be happen in anytime soon.

Both of you and kokonut are anti-Obama so nothing is new for me to know since you love to bash on him.

Obama is doing so fine, in my opinion so you have different opinion.

Who cares about polls, poll is poll.

Poll isn't accurate source if we don't like Obama, it going up and down like rest of previous presidents.

Eve · 11-12-2009, 05:48 PM

So yes, we (along with the other 46% of America currently) have a different opinion of Obama than you do.

lol, polls don't count 300 millions population.

Again, polls are not reliable source that we don't like Obama and that's poll is poll.

Eve · 11-12-2009, 05:51 PM

Polls are pretty reliable and no one said that YOU don't like Obama. But 46% of America doesn't.
