You must be having a fit over Obama's spending policies, then. Yes?
Sure, in some cases.

That extra ten bucks a week is awesome, too! I'm going to go buy a quater-of-a-million dollar home, with all that extra cash I have.

Not to mention th continued tax cuts for the wealthy, because why else would he continue them if they are so wrong and harmful?....
Sure, in some cases.
The first one: LNS12000000 there is also LNS11000000, I don't know the difference.
Top Picks (Most Requested Statistics) : U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
It's actually closer to $30/week for an individual, or $240/month for a couple. Economists say that it boosts GDP by about a full percentage point, which is quite significant.
It's amazing how Republicans will beg and plead for tax cuts, and then whine when they actually get a tax cut. It's the ultimate hyperpartisan bull****.
A whole point? That's awesome!!
It's even more amazing how Libbos will celebrate medocrity. You want to brag about giving employees a tax payroll tax cut? Let them keep $500 a month, or even a thousand. Now, that is a tax cut to brag about.
8 pages before a hack-ified post fest. Good job! Longer than I expected.

There is ongoing stimulus in the form of the payroll tax cut, which was renewed a few months ago.
And then listen to the right bitch about an even more rapidly increasing debt/deficit? You know what being between a rock and a hard place means, right?
The Obama worship fest started with post #2.
The reality of the new job creation is, 1) it proves that only the private sector can create jobs and if the government would get the hell out of the way, the economy would improve on it's own and, 2) these new jobs are nothing more than a reaction to the probability that Obama is going to get voted out of office. IF he gets re-elected--notice the big if--the unemployment rate will shoot right back up.
Yes, if you understand anything about economics, it is pretty awesome.

I agree wholeheartedly with number 1, but I dunno about number 2. I don't think employers hire based on politics. Policies certainty affect them, but not necessarily politics.
Right, 'coz the Democrats didn't poo-poo every bit of economic good news in the last decade. :roll:
Good news. Way to go Obama!!
It's good news, but really, no president controls the economy. They don't deserve the blame or the credit.
Just saying. :coffeepap
