NIGGER OM ICX doesnt work

New Jersey employers added 17,600 jobs to their payrolls in May, the largest monthly gain in more than seven years!

This means that 25% of net jobs created in this country in May were created in New Jersey. #jerseycomeback

Since I took office, New Jersey has created 84,600 private sector jobs. #jerseycomeback
 
The RNC chuckles at DNC Communications Director Brad Woodhouse finding himself defending the Bush tax cuts:

“Broadly speaking, Republicans and Democrats don’t want to see, especially at a time where the economy needs all the fuel it can get, don’t want to see us raising taxes on the middle class. So for example, some of the Bush tax cuts did some good things for the middle class, and certainly don’t want to see, this time, tax increases on the middle class.”



Bipartisan agreement!
 
Bill Clinton's words could haunt Obama today

By Richard Wolf, USA TODAY Updated 11h 54m ago


Obama's campaign speech on the economy today will be delivered in the same spot where Bill Clinton delivered a 2010 campaign speech Obama might just as soon forget.


In September 2010, Clinton told his Cuyahoga Community College audience in Cleveland that Democrats deserved two more years to fix the nation's economy.

"The Democrats are saying something like this: 'We found a big hole that we did not dig. We didn't get it filled in 21 months, but at least we quit digging,'" Clinton said at the time. "'Give us two more years. If it doesn't work, vote us out.'"

Republicans claim two more years didn't help. As evidence, they cite an unemployment rate still hovering above 8%, slow job growth and an exodus of people leaving the workforce.



Democrats, led by Obama, cite more than 3 million jobs added to the labor force in 20 consecutive months of job growth since Clinton's speech. Until then, the country had lost more than 3.5 million jobs in the 19 months of Obama's presidency.

Obama isn't expected to break much new ground in his speech today. White House press secretary Jay Carney said Wednesday the president would use the opportunity to contrast his economic plan with that of his Republican rival, Mitt Romney.

"The president believes that this election is a fundamental choice between two very different visions for how we grow the economy, create middle-class jobs and pay down our debt," Carney said.

"The other side's plan is a $5 trillion tax cut that explodes the deficit while gutting the investments we need to grow. The president's plan is to pay down our deficit in a balanced way, a way supported by the majority of the American people, while still investing in education, energy, innovation and infrastructure
 
We tried to tell them UD was on the job and had made airy pronouncements to the contrary but...

78% Remain Concerned About Inflation

Thursday, June 14, 2012

Most Americans continue to lack confidence in the Federal Reserve Board’s ability to keep inflation under control, and they overwhelmingly expect to pay more for the groceries they buy.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 78% of American Adults are at least somewhat concerned about inflation, including 49% who are Very Concerned. Just 19% are not very or Not At All concerned about inflation. (To see survey question wording)

80% of people are that out of touch? Damn.
 
It's a Rasmussen snap poll. No uppity negroes, Hispanics or people with cell phones were queried, in other words, what cranky old unemployed white folks are worried about.

Even amongst them it's been over a four fucking years and debatably food aside this inflation shit hasn't happened. Electronics have been steadily declining and gas. . .is gas does it's own damn thing. What are they afraid of?

As near as I can tell, having to share political power with minorities, and specifically having a Negro as President.

Hypothetically if something were to. . .happen. and circumstances meant that Joe Biden became president would they come around?
 
I can play. Two attorneys, two financial advisers, a CPA, and a gardener. You?

..and a $500 a month electric bill, 3 vettes, 4 Members Only jackets, and several pairs of Levi's 501's that you paid $30 more a pair than you should've, tubby.
