U.S. Adds Only 88,000 Jobs; Jobless Rate Falls to 7.6%[W: 831]

What is an "Obamabot?"
Click to expand...

Urban Dictionary: Obamabot

One who supports Barack Obama and yet knows
very little or nothing about Obama the man and politician; his history, accomplishments and challenges beyond repeating Obama Camp talking points and/or slogans.

An Obamabot typically can't define, explain or defend Obama's policies. If an Obamabot is pursued or confronted about his or her seeming blind loyalty and lack of knowledge, he or she will typically launch a 'counter attack' (to a perceived attack) and accuse those who differ as racist, ignorant, hateful, etc. and/or will become resentful, indignant,
insulting, and even threatening (in cases which are most extreme).

That is all he has and continues to divert from the current mess we have. He has no solutions and apparently believes Obama is doing a good job. I will no longer respond to posts about Bush as I agree he is irrelevant today and has nothing to do with the problems we have right now and the numbers Obama has generated.

I will take the 4.4 TRILLION dollar increase during the 8 years of Bush over the Obama performance any day. Results always matter to me not your distorted posts showing percentage change. You see, we make money and spend money and tax money based upon dollars generated not percentage change. Try spending your percentage change at the grocery store but more importanly try to explain to those 21Plus million unemployed/under employed/discouraged workers and those 500,000 that dropped out of the labor force, or all those on welfare, food stamps, disability that they are better off under Obama.

Not a thing is ever going to change the mind of an ideologue partisan like you who believes the numbers we have today show Obama to be doing a good job. The more people dependent the more votes liberals buy.

It's a shame you can't understand how useless it is to rely on nominal figures.

According to you, you prefer GDP under Obama (431b/year) over that of Reagan (289b/year)

As I stated every President in history is responsible for the numbers his first year in office BUT Obama and here we are four years later and he still isn't responsible for the economy. As a Leader the numbers are his responsibility and he cannot delegate that responsibility. He wanted the job, campaigned for the job, and the results he has today are a disaster.

I suggest you use your scroll wheel or the ignore function then as I'm not about to stop highlighting the hypocrisy of Bush supporters after what Bush and Republicans did to our country.

That is what people like you always do, blame others for your own failures. There is no excuse for what we have in the WH today other than total and complete ignorance on the part of the Obamabots that voted for him.

Umm, of those polled, some 49% approve of the job he's doing.

In fiscal terms, the issue is not that GWB was good and BHO is bad. It's that GWB was bad but BHO is worse.:cool:

But how many? You said there were more than you thought? My guess is you have no idea what you're talking about and you're just venting sour grapes since Obama beat president wannabe of the 53%ers.

So how many do you estimate there were and how many do you estimate there turned out to be?

Coincides very closely to the ones getting some kind of assistance from the people who actually pay taxes. Dependence always creates support. the definition of Obamabot can be applied to many of those 49% excluding the hard core socialist/marxists/communists

The disaster left office 4 years ago. That was after nearly doubling unemployment, driving quarterly GDP to -8.9%, driving the market down to 1996 levels. Obama has done none of that.

Your opinion is noted. Let us know when Obama is responsible for 4500 troops deaths/ thousands of life altering injuries fighting a tinhorn dictator or responsible for the loss of 3/4 million lost private sector jobs.

I see, so you're under the delusion that the president is elected by popular vote. :roll:

It's a pity you have no idea about civics.

I was forced to contribute for 35 years so yes, I am getting some of my money back. You have a problem with that? Apparently you either aren't "contributing" to SS or aren't smart enough to understand what its purpose

Didn't know that Bush was on the ballot in 2008 and 2012? How did Bush generate the numbers we have today, numbers that show that true liberal compassion, 21 plus million unemployed/under employed/discouraged workers, over 100 million dependent on some form of taxpayer assistance(excluding SS and Medicare), debt service as the number four budget item, millions and millions on food stamps. Yes, dependence is real compassion

I have no problem with that and hope I get my share of it someday.

No, the reason I ask is because I just wanted to know before I point out how YOU are among the percentage of those whom receive some form of benefit from the government. The very same ones you are complaining about.

Bush wasn't on the ballot, but his economy and its lingering effects were.
