The fact Democrats are in deep political trouble this season should not be a surprise at all. And anyone denying they are in deep, deep trouble is deluding themselves. I knew back in March that the stimulus bill rushed through Congress would be an abysmal failure. I knew that the country would be seething by […]

We have sadly not hit bottom on the jobs situation. This week’s jobs numbers might seem to have some green shoots to the casual (math challenged) liberal news media reporter. But the news is indeed really bad. This week the first time jobless claims did not change – did not grow and did not shrink. […]

I don’t have the stomach to go over the whole mess again with the fake stimulus bill the liberals crammed down our throats (along with its massive debt). I’ll let others explain: Ed Morrissey notes this great news piece in San Diego with Barbara Boxer and the ONE real job created from millions of dollars […]

Ed Morrissey caught my eye with this post on October’s mind boggling deficit number: The federal government busted the budget worse than last October by $20 billion with a deficit of $176.36 billion for the month.  That used to be considered a decent deficit target … for an entire year … … It’s roughly four […]

Major Update Below Remember the rush last February to get a stimulus package through Congress so the Democrats could turn the economy around and start creating jobs? Remember almost 8 months ago, when it passed, all the hype and promises spewed by the Democrats? Here we sit 8 months later, with unemployment and underemployment creeping […]

Let’s just take off the partisan glasses for a few moments and note that current economic trouble actually began years ago with a terrible idea to risk the stability of the real estate market (what could go wrong, they can’t make more land?) by loosening all the controls for ensuring people who buy can afford […]

[Optional Subtitle: Obama’s 1 Million ‘Saved’ Jobs Discovered? Below I think we have found Obama’s mythical 1 million ‘saved’ jobs. They are a statistical ‘adjustment’ made to the unemployment data by bureaucrats that add tens of thousands of phantom jobs to the unemployment data each month] The unemployment numbers that came out for September were […]

Well, here we are a little over 7 months since the faux liberal stimulus bill went into effect (2/17/09) and there has been absolutely no job stimulus. The latest unemployment numbers are out and we still see ever increasing unemployment (U3: now at a 26 year high) and underemployment (U6: reaching a staggering 17%). The […]

The bad economic news keeps rolling in this weekend as we learn a generation of young people may have permanent scars as a result of the failed liberal stimulus bill and its moronic reliance on government jobs programs to lift this nation out of the Great Recession: The unemployment rate for young Americans has exploded […]

President Obama and his team came into office with high hopes. The first African American President was carrying the hope of a good portion of the nation on his side. Even a good chunk of us in opposition hoped this would be a new beginning. Sadly, we have watched our young president and his arrogant […]
