He could come up with a plan that drops unemployment to 2% and still you would find something wrong with it.

If "he could" why hasn't he? :lol: Ya never know though, those stimulus turtle bridges and condom studies could kick in any time.

this happened under Bush's watch. A vital warning was ignored along chain of command... under Bush's watch.

You are totally right. It happen because Clnton got rid of people in DOD, FBI and CIA. Those sleeper cells made all their preparation during Clinton's watch.

Wow! Unemployment numbers at an all time low, and you are cheering for the numberes to go back up just to give you an excuse to Obama bash. Nice Christian attitude showing concern for your fellow man.:cool2:

As usual, you are totally wrong. Employments are NOT at an all-time low.
You need to learn how to google.

On what planet?

Here are some fun facts

Average length of unemployment longest ever at 40.9 weeks

Notice in June we set a record at 39.7 weeks so the records keep coming

Average Length of Unemployment at All-Time High - NYTimes.com

Our job participation rate is down to 64%

Meanwhile the "diffusion Index fell by nearly 5% and it would have been a greater drop had the previous numbers not been revised downward.

The buildings were brought down by planted explosives.
But carry on, please do.

All time high since 1948 since they started keeping track of unemployment rates. I wonder what it was after the Crash of '29 and how long that unemployment rate went on for.

It would be interesting to know but it is one of those things we will never know. I have seen articles that say this period is worse and some that say the Great Depression was worse. Hard to know since long term data was not kept, plus the amount of farming that was relied upon back then.

Nope. Bush's responsibilty. But, hey...why not go all the way back through history and blame every Democratic President we've ever had? It's all there fault, dammit!

As far as the number of people having suffered an extreme negative effect and living in squalid poverty, the Great Depression wins hands down. The current situation cannot compare.

We know by looking around us, but it is still subjective. All my friends have jobs, but I am not cheering that everything is hunky-dory. Neither am I spouting gloom and doom.
Some people just delight in posting bad numbers and cackling about them, but it is their life, not mine. Whatever floats their boat.
Peace.

An all time low for this Presidency. Try to think for a change. You are appearing closer and closer to Steiny with each and every post you make. Right down to what you say and the way you say it, not to mention making the same type of errors in comprehension. I'm still curious how it is that you seem to know about things that occured long before you were ever made aware of, and "invited" to this forum.:hmm:

You telling anyone to get their facts straight is hysterical.:laugh2: You don't even use facts. They get in the way of your ability to form an opinion based on pure emotion and fallacy.

Your post to which I responded suggest the opposite. Celebrating what you see as a failed policy is also celebrating the negative impact it has had on the people affected by that policy. You seem to be so intent on celebrating what you see as Obama's "failure" that you don't see that. Your perspective is superficial. Any claim you make about "loving your fellow human beings" is sacrificed to your need to bash Obama.

Yeah, it is a disturbing way to live. I won't go into the clinical reasons someone behaves in this way.:cool2:

Ah, there you go! You used an addendum so you must have been incorrect the first time or you were hiding something! Show me the figures on an all time low for his presidency!
