OBAMA SAYS HUGE PUBLIC SECTOR IS KEY TO HEALTHY ECONOMY…
I think it very fair to say that I think a good many of us are well aware of the fact that Barry, our ‘Dear Beloved Leader’, has never been a big fan of our current economic system or of the private sector workers required to keep it moving. And by now I’m sure we all Barry say, yesterday that the private sector "is doing just fine." And after being forced into clarifying that nutty statement, how he would come back later saying "it is absolutely clear that the economy is not doing fine." He nonetheless repeated again the rebound in private-sector job growth and corporate profits to contend that the private sector has "not been the biggest drag on the economy." He continued to stand by his claim that is factually incorrect, in others words a lie, in which he stated, "The truth of the matter is that … we've created 4.3 million jobs over the last 27 months, over 800,000 just this year alone." So he essentially stand by his claim saying, "Where we're seeing weaknesses in our economy have to do with state and local government." So, at least according to Barry, the solution to getting our economy moving again lies not in creating more private sector jobs, but instead creating many more government jobs. In other words to further expand the size of government. DUH?
Now in making his original cockamamie claim that "the private sector is doing fine," Barry seemed to, once again, blame all but himself. He said, "Where we’re seeing weaknesses in our economy, have to do with state and local government -- oftentimes, cuts initiated by governors or mayors who are not getting the kind of help that they have in the past from the federal government and who don’t have the same kind of flexibility as the federal government in dealing with fewer revenues coming in." But state and local leaders were not the only ones to be blamed for our bad economy, nope, not by a long shot. At least according to Barry, it’s also all of the Republicans in Congress. "If Republicans want to be helpful, if they really want to move forward, and put people back to work, what they should be thinking about is, ‘How do we help state and local governments and how do we help the construction industry?’" Barry said. "Because the recipes that they’re promoting are basically the kinds of policies that would add weakness to the economy, would result in further layoffs, would not provide relief in the housing market, and would result – I think most economists would estimate – in lower growth." Now I may not be a graduate of the Harvard Law School, but this just doesn’t make much sense to me.
Barry’s remarks about there not being enough state employees, strangely enough, came during the same week that Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a Republican I might add, survived a union-backed recall election because he curbed some of the state employee benefits and collective bargaining rules. Walker, as we also know, went on to win the recall by a 9 percent margin, 54 to 45 percent. "I was extremely disappointed to hear the president assert this morning that ‘the private sector is doing fine,’" Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) said in a press release today. "Just as disappointing was his statement, ‘where we’re seeing weaknesses in our economy had to do with state and local government’ and what our nation needs is an expansion of government to cure our economic ills." Sen. Johnson added, "We have had 40 consecutive months of unemployment above 8 percent." He added, "The economy is teetering on the edge of recession. And just last Friday, the Obama administration announced that unemployment is on the rise. This president may be seriously out of touch with reality, and that is frightening." Unemployment rose from 8.1 percent in April to 8.2 percent in May, according to the U.S. Labor Department. Real GDP growth for the first quarter of 2012 was 1.9 percent.
"The economy is not fine. Private sector job creation is not fine," Johnson continued. And in hitting the nail squarely on the head, Sen. Johnson added, "Millions of Americans are suffering from the president’s constant focus on growing government, instead of reasonable, bipartisan steps to promote private-sector job creation. It is high time we had a president who was focused on economic growth. It is time for a change in course. It’s time for real leadership." And I could not agree more with the senator’s assessment of the situation, it is in fact dire. There has been no leadership demonstrated by Barry in the area of creating real, meaningful, private sector jobs since he first came strutting into the Oval Office. NONE. Name one job creating initiative that was put forward during the first two years of his administration when he had huge majorities in both houses of Congress. There wasn’t one, because the focus was, instead, on the takeover of our healthcare industry. Hundreds of billions of dollars were wasted under the guise of some bogus ‘stimulus’ bill that we were told would keep unemployment at or below 8 percent. Never happened! Because in reality it was nothing more than a slush fund to be used by Barry’s Democrat cronies. Let’s face it, we’ve been lied to by this guy since day one, he’s gotta go!

ANOTHER PARANOID BLACK GOES AFTER ROMNEY...
Caucasia-Stan? Really? Sounds like this supposedly intelligent black woman, besides demonstrating just how much of a moron she is, might also be a bit of a racist. Ya know, with people like her it's always gotta be about what's best for those po' black folk. It can never be about what's actually best for the country. And trust me when I say, Barack Hussein Obama, hm hm hm, is not in any way what's best for this country. In spite of what Ms. Hunter may think!
