The whole Republican Conservative propaganda as presented Around Town, posted by UnRealPeople, a resident of the Vintage Hills Elementary School neighborhood, on Aug 5, 2009 at 10:10 am
Pompous arrogant fear mongering Republican Conservatives base their cases on nothing factual!
They are furious that the same old Republicans that got us into trillions in debt and a really bad world wide view of America were put to a STOP, with the Majority Election of President Obama.
Obama inherited an absolute mess and educated economic expert unanimously agree he has done a very good job at avoiding a complete economic melt down and in fact the economy is slowly recovering.
The whole Republican Conservative propaganda as presented in the many line item summaries of the Heath Care Bill all over the media and internet, is based upon childish B.S. interpretation of the bill, based upon what if scenarios and fear mongering.
You all can’t even control your irrational and emotional response and behaviors, even with YOUR Party BEGGING you ALL to calm down and channel your hyper paranoia and anger in a productive manner.

"Obama inherited an absolute mess and educated economic expert unanimously agree he has done a very good job at avoiding a complete economic melt down and in fact the economy is slowly recovering."
So by your definition, OP, the same "experts" started this process under Bush. One would extrapolate from your reasoning that Bush did the right thing. Obama just kept it going and that was the right thing as well. I'm thankful he did just that.
The difference in leadership began with the so-called stimulus. Even they, the Obama administration, admits that none of their stimulus package dollars have entered the economy, as of yet. But they will in 2010.
The pull up you're seeing in the stock market for one, is the free market at work. Corporations decreased their spending so much that they are now seeing profits. This has nothing to do with Obama's plan since we are currently at almost 10% unemployment.
The reason, however, that gold is still high is because the dollar is weak. The dollar is weak, because Obama printed too much. Inflation is about to take hold. These are basic economic principles at work.
I know you love Obama, or so it seems from your attak on an opposition, and he isn't a terrible person - he isn't, he is just a terrible leader, in my opinion. I'm sure you'll be offended by me saying that, but like grandma says, "The truth hurts, but time heals."

Regardless of whether the 'stimulus' impacts the general population in 2010 or not, the tax increases necessary to support Obamacare will more than offset any recovery.
Looney Barbara Lee is back in town on her vacation and said on channel 2 news this morning that everyone (upper, middle and other classes) will have their taxes raised.
You can't blame previous administrations for this fiasco, this is a standard play in the Dem's playbook.
