Prediction

The classic governmental fix, massive deficit spending was hamstrung due to the debt GWB had run up by not paying for two wars. Add in one half of the politicians rooting for failure, and Obama did damned well.

Here we go again...sigh. SSDD.
Who spent more in their first term?
What'd they get for it? What'd we get for it?

Blaming Bush is a "lame" argument, that is four years old. Stale.
Obama, for Obama, did damn well for the first two years.
Last two years? Common Sense "kicked in".

Common Sense will be here the next four years.
With or without, Obama.

With Obama? Gridlock.
With out? Better...for everybody, to include you. Why?
Inflation? Ain't no retiree's friend. Inflation is the "new" poor.

most all economists feel that the stimulus should have been 2 to 3 times as large as it was, and containing ZERO in tax breaks.
What you got, out of Congress, was around half tax breaks out of a paltry 1 trillion dollar package.

[Pudfark]

Well, if that was so important?
Why didn't Obama do it the first two years in office?
When he was unopposed?

Or is the excuse..."late out of the gate"...more appropriate.
Maybe..."missed opportunity"?

Most likely?
Yer excuse/answer is so late, it's "transparent".....accidently, of course

Last night on the Andy Dean radio talk show he had one of the top professional Las Vegas odds-maker that said Romney is going to be the next president. I should have wrote his name down but he makes millions as an NFL odds-maker and he's correctly predicted all the presidential elections since Reagan.

So, what sort of bet do you want to make, and what odds do I get if it's such a sure thing?

[Pudfark]

With yer attitude Buzz?
Either outcome?
You're gonna get Feck'd....

Naw! I'll pay off in fools gold. City slickers won't know the difference.

[Pudfark]

Fools Gold?
Sounds like a "gubmint check"...

I don't think Slick lives in the city...anymore?

By the way?
Do you have to pay a "fools tax" on "fools gold"?

[Buzz]

I'm not talking about slick.

Do you have to pay a "fools tax" on "fools gold"?

I was...
