| White House spinners are working furiously in the final 72 hours before President Obama’s State of the Union speech. Their job: convince the recession-scarred American public that economic recovery is Obama’s top priority — after everything he has said and done to suggest otherwise. The unemployment rate is 7.9 percent — one tenth of a point higher than it was when Obama took office in January 2009. But the true toll of joblessness is far higher. The Labor Department’s so-called U-6 rate, which includes people who want a job but have become so discouraged they

Why do all the highly educated deep thinkers have such a problem with the notion of unintended consequences ?
Why does this parasite not back off a little and avoid killing it´s host ?
Because the host is perceived (by the current parasite) as being both rich and healthy and evil.
They know damn well that they cannot create jobs. This is a tiny white lie in their monumental cascade of deception.
Only a confident and robust free market can create jobs.

President Obama, what sick logic inspired you to make hiring workers more expensive for employers with Obama Care? I´ve witnessed what long term unemployment does to a person. It´s more than just poverty. It attacks the spirit as the months turn to years. It´s brutal. President Obama, and you will never realize the suffering you´ve caused...suffering that is a direct result of your wasteful spending, rampant regulation, lack of leadership, and refusal to find some middle ground with your opposition. For 4 long years, you´ve fueled the downward spiral of high unemployment and dead housing market.

For a century socialists have been witness to the obvious failure of their economic paradigm, and Obama is no different. So why do they persist, you ask. They persist because along the way they have discovered that, even though their economic ideology is disastrous for the masses, it is a boon to those in power, and they have come to love the power. If the masses are hungry, let them eat cake.

2) Giving more taxpayer money to his muslim friends in the middle east so they can kill more of our soldiers.
3) Wasting even more taxpayer money on that green BS.
4) Complete anniliation of the US economy.
5) Fill in the blank.

It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice.

President Obama is eager to build public support for his health care overhaul in the few months remaining before its implementation, but waning enthusiasm from Democrats threatens his effort right out of the gate. Two-thirds of Democrats now believe Obama´s health care reforms will either hurt them personally or have no effect on their daily lives, a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows. In comparison, just 27 percent of Democratic respondents said the reforms would help them. The president has long struggled to convince independent and Republican-leaning voters that his health care blueprint would lower premiums and expand insurance coverage.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

The budget President Barack Obama will submit on April 10 will contain a proposal that would prohibit individuals from accumulating more than $3 million in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and tax-preferred retirement accounts. According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving." "The budget would limit an individual’s total balance across tax-preferred accounts to an amount sufficient to finance an annuity of not more than $205,000 per
