Credit Upgraded Back To AAA …


… in Florida

WOKV

While the United States credit rating with Standard & Poor’s may have been downgraded recently, Florida’s jumped from AA+ to AAA.

S&P upgraded Florida in July, and the improved credit rating means better interest rates for the state. So Florida took advantage of that and refinanced some of its old bonds, thereby saving millions of dollars. Since July Florida has refinanced $1.5 billion in bonds, totaling $135 million in savings for the state.

“We went through, got lower pricing, because a triple A bond rating can give us that. In this marketplace, there aren’t many of us out there who have that rating,” says Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater.

Tax reductions and state budget cuts were the keys to Governor Rick Scott convincing S&P to upgrade Florida’s credit rating.

You Know That $1 Million Luxury Bus Obama Is Campaigning In To Boost US Job Growth? Yeah, Turns Out The White House Had It Built In . . . Canada…


Another brilliant PR move.

WASHINGTON — President Obama is barnstorming the heartland to boost US jobs in a taxpayer-financed luxury bus the government had custom built — in Canada, The Post has learned.

The $1.1 million vehicle, one of two that Quebec-based Prevost sold the government, has been tricked out by the Secret Service with state-of-the-art security features and creature comforts.

It’s a VIP H3-45 model, the company’s top of the line, and is used by major traveling rock bands.

“That’s the more luxurious model,” Christine Garant of Prevost told The Post.

“When we have the Country Music Awards, we sometimes see a lot of them,” she said, noting that Kid Rock, David Lee Roth and Kenny Rogers also have owned them.

Obama’s new ride is equipped to carry all the baggage a president needs — including the “football” that allows him to remotely control US nuclear weapons.

There’s electronic equipment allowing Obama to communicate and teleconference worldwide.

Like his GM-built limousine, nicknamed “The Beast,” the bus has armored doors.

The president also has large flat-screen TV sets and comfortable couches.
 
He'll say the acquisition began in the Bush administration.:rolleyes:

But didja know who the OTHER bus is for?

It's for the REPUBLICAN NOMINEE.

WOOOOOOOOOOW. I WONDER IF HE/SHE WILL REFUSE TO RIDE IN IT DUE TO ADHERING TO CONVICTIONS (BEING CONTRARY TO EVERYTHING OBAMA DOES NO MATTER WHAT OR HOW MANY AMERICANS THEY TOSS UNDER THE "BUS", THAT IS) AND RIDE A BIKE.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW.

:eek:

Today’s Questions for the President

August 17, 2011 9:58 A.M.

By Peter Kirsanow

The president of the United States is the most powerful person in the most powerful nation on Earth. Yet, over just the last few days, you’ve blamed the dismal economy and jobs numbers on ”factions” in Congress, corporate jet owners, the Tea Party, the tsunami in Japan, congressional Republicans, the Arab Spring, millionaires unwilling to pay their “fair share,” Standard & Poor’s, broken politics, the European debt situation, Washington, D.C., bad luck, and George W. Bush.

Are setbacks unique to your presidency? Or are these problems simply more extraordinary than those overcome by other presidents?

Why haven’t you been able to overcome the negative impact of corporate jet owners despite having massive Democratic majorities in both houses of Congress for most of your presidency?

Do you maintain that the proper role for the president is to assign blame rather than produce results?

Why are these obstacles more formidable challenges than lowering the oceans and healing the planet?
 
INTERNET RACISM WOW ITS SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH ALL MY WHITE OLD MALE RIGHT WING BUTT BUDDIES ENABLE AND VALIDATE MY CASUAL RACIST BULLSHIT THROUGH THEIR SELECTIVE INDIFFERENCE OH ITS SO GREAT TO BE WHITE TODAY (AND EVERYDAY) HA HA HEE HEE HEE

You must be proud of him!



Good Lord: Obama Blames ATM Machines And The Internet For High Unemployment…

He’s certifiably insane.

President Obama at a town hall meeting at Wyffels Hybrids Inc. seed company, in Atkinson, Illinois:

“One of the challenges in terms of rebuilding our economy is — businesses have gotten so efficient, that, uh, when was the last time somebody went to a bank teller? Instead of using an ATM. Or, used a travel agent instead of going online. A lot of jobs out that that used to require people now have become automated.”

The best thing is how they continuously quote him and converse with him when he's deliberately using racism, as if it was nothing at all. This is the verity of their souls talking online when they don't have to suffer consequences of face-to-face in the flesh.

Take it offline and they'd all be picking up their teeth off of the sidewalk, then crying wolf. And they know it.
 
I've mentioned the unemployment data when it's adjusted upward. When were the growth numbers adjusted upwards?

During the recession when you were busy masturbating over bad numbers: http://www.nuwireinvestor.com/artic...uarter-gdp-numbers-adjusted-upward-53027.aspx

And when we were coming out of it in late 2010: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8539099.stm

Oh and also Q1 of this year: http://www.marketminder.com/s/fishe...rts/75e2b2e9-7d77-47ee-8fbf-d5f6cf2e9af8.aspx
