Now that Bob Woodward (of Watergate fame) has said that Obama is exhibiting a "kind of madness" in the irrational way he is dealing with the sequester, Obama's behavior with regard to sequester has come under a bit more scrutiny. For instance, Obama is still ranting daily about how horrible the sequester is, but so far he has spent exactly 7 minutes ---SEVEN MINUTES---- meeting with the Republicans to discuss a compromise to end the sequester. Obama spent longer then that polishing up golf balls for Tiger Woods during their million dollar 3 day mini-vacation last week. If the sequester is really as horrible as Obama claims, then why doesn't Obama actually spend some time working on it?


Obama held his first meeting with Republicans today on the sequester----he scheduled them in for SEVEN minutes. Thats the kind of nutty thing Captain Queeg would do----it makes no sense. The seven minute minute Obama just held is at best farcial and at worst completely useless and irrational.

US incomes drop by largest amount in 20 years due to Obama's tax increases

US family incomes show the the biggest drop in 20 years due to Obama's tax increases

And of course, Obama's incredibly stupid response to the pain his policies are causing to working folks in the USA is to insist on even more tax increases.

As Obama jets from posh resort to posh guest house to posh ski vacation to posh Hawaii vacation to staged political rally to posh Florida golf vacation to staged political media event to glitzy fundraisers with Google billionaires and Goldman Sachs execs and Hollywood stars he never talks to average folks and he never sees the pain his stupid policies are causing to middle class and working folks in this country. No wonder this is the WORST RECOVERY EVER.

The way I see it, given four decades of voodoo economics and a consumer spending economy, there is only one response to the crisis.

Obama claimed in the 2012 campaign that his sequester law would never actually go into effect.

Of course Obama was lying, as usual.


The sequester---more economic stupidity from Obama.

It's interesting to see the press calling out Obama over his hysterical claims that the economy would collapse as soon as the sequester hit. Ever since BO cut the press out of a chance to meet Tiger Woods the press has been critical of Obama. What gives? Are the press all Tiger Woods groupies or what?

Eric Holder just admitted in a congressional oversight hearing that the BO administration has consciously avoided prosecuting Obama's wealthy Wall Street cronies and banksters at Goldman Sachs and elsewhere.

Under the BO administration the law doesn't apply to illegal aliens and banksters. It's the Chicago way I guess.

Food stamp enrollment just went up again to set another record---- now almost 48 Million people on food stamps. The never ending rise in the number of folks on food stamps is just more evidence of how weak the economy has been for the last four years in the WORST RECOVERY EVER

Yet another Harvard Yale mouthpiece pretending to "understand" the people he is busy screwing into the ground for the profit margins of his campaign contributors.

Looks like austerity is in the cards for the US in the near future, just like the EU. BO and the dens released budget proposals that called for huge tax increases while the Rs new budget calls for huge spending cuts

That's EU style austerity. Tax increases and budget cuts are coming up next for the US in the WORST RECOVERY EVER

And while the initil crash might have started under George, it is now obvious that ANY President since WWII could have created a better recovery, because as we know, Obama is the President in charge of THE WORST RECOVERY EVER.
