And the Latino's etc provide billions for the Koch Bro's- in the truest sense of the word, they put the gas in their tank. I kinda doubt a Kochbot would know how to put gas in his tank actually.

^We keep trying to tell you that has all changed, Boon Mee. Things ain't like they used to be.

In other News, Obama Sets All-Time Record For Worst Monthly Deficit In February: $229 Billion.

The federal government recorded its worst monthly deficit in history in February, according to a preliminary report Wednesday from the Congressional Budget Office that said the deficit in fiscal year 2012 is already more than half a trillion dollars.
The CBO’s figures show that despite repeated efforts to trim spending, the government has borrowed 42 cents of every dollar it spent during the first five months of this fiscal year.
The nonpartisan agency projected the government will run a deficit of $229 billion in February, the highest monthly figure ever. The previous high was $223 billion a year ago, in February 2011.
It is the 41st straight month the government has run a deficit — itself a record streak that dates back to the final months of President George W. Bush’s tenure. Before now, the longest streak on record was 11 months.
For all of fiscal year 2012, which began Oct. 1, the budget analysts said the government has raised $869 billion in revenue but spent $1.5 trillion so far

What a total failure

^ Yep, and the entitled welfare classes will start employing people? Grow up, Sabang. Under obama, the US is heading to become a Greek offspring.

Reversing the Bush tax cuts, at least on the wealthy, will do a lot to eliminate that. Cutting some corporate loop holes will help too. As the economy improves and people go to work, tax revenues will increase and the country can, in a sane world, rebuild the crumbling infrastructure--a gift to us from previous generations that we squander like spoiled children.
Govt. spending will shift, but if it stops a lot of stuff starts to go under. Call it Socialism; it's just a fact of modern life.

^ Erm, no. Cutting the loopholes will help, taxing the rich when 50% of the pop don't pay any tax at all and only suck libbie entitlements will not; trash the civil servant chokehold -- like the EPA, the Education board, and other nonsensical departments -- and cut off the SEIU's stranglehold on business and you might get somewhere. Fluke projects will not work. Let Keystone lay the pipeline. Quit scaring businesses with obamacare and other fed rules and taxes. IOW, get the feds the fek out of business.

Looks like you got your mantra down.

Grow up Republicans- the US is on the road to perdition, has been for a number of years, and it is Your policies and fiscal recklessness that are the prime cause of this. The difference between Me- a life long Republican sympathiser until that awful shrub administration- and You, is that I don't stick my head in the sand and pretend the facts on the ground do not exist. Facts are real, making like an ostrich and arguing the same old discredited corner isn't. Pay your Bills.

Until they screw us up again, and then bail them out all over again. Yeh, right.

^Sure, and how many folks gave up looking and how many of those jobs are Mcjobs? Sham.

All of the pieces are starting to fit together now, eh?

When we've shared photos of Bo over the last few months, we've learned two things. One, there are a lot of First Dog fans out there. Two, there is an enthusiasm for this campaign that extends to the furriest members of your families.

That's why we've launched Pet Lovers for Obama, a special way for pet lovers like you to be a part of this campaign.

Mitt Romney Admits Family Dog Rode on the Roof of His Car for 12-Hour Trip

Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney might have his hands full with PETA and other animal lovers after events involving his family dog from over 20 years ago resurfaced.

Apparently, Romney took his family dog, an Irish Setter named Seamus, on a 12-hour car trip in 1983 tied to the roof of his car in what is being dubbed the "Mitt Romney dog on roof" incident.

What's more is that Romney actually admitted to the act in an interview on Fox News, and tried to explain that Seamus enjoyed riding on the roof. He asserted that, with a car full of five children, the dog was probably more comfortable up top than he would have been if he was in the car.

What Romney obviously didn't know is that, as the interviewer points out, putting a dog on the roof of a car (in a kennel or otherwise) is considered cruel and inhumane in the state of Massachusetts.

Two years of job growth

Obama is living in Fantasyland - America is Coming Back

Raising campaign cash in Republican territory, President Barack Obama on Friday hailed a rebounding economy and accused Republicans of banking on voters having “amnesia” about the steps that led to a brutal economic collapse. “The recovery is accelerating. America is coming back,” Obama told 600 supporters at a Texas fundraiser.
Bidding for re-election, Obama bounded between a rally-style event in a sprawling Rolls-Royce manufacturing plant south of Richmond, Va., to a pair of Houston fundraisers. Framing the trip: a new monthly jobs report showing employers 227,000 jobs in February, the latest sign that the economy is headed in the right direction.
Every month’s jobs report is seen as a barometer of the economy and an important factor in the presidential race. The unemployment rate held steady at 8.3 percent, the result of more Americans looking for work as job growth takes hold month by month.

Right. America will definitely be coming back after this useless, failed Marxist community agitator is tossed out.

^ The last line of the above article is interesting.

In Texas, Obama is rising campaign cash among supporters who live in a reliably Republican state. Jimmy Carter, in 1976, was the last Democratic presidential candidate to carry Texas, but changing demographics and an influx of Hispanic voters have given Democrats hopes of competing in the state beyond the 2012 elections.

Yes and in your world they should shovel dirt for their own graves as they are exwelfare types. They should keep mootching right? As those Mcjobs are not good enough? So in Canada they(you) would just not work at all.

Sounds like a good thing, if people start hoping again for a job.

That it means at the same time, that the percentage of unemployment remains high, is just a thing of statistics. Only a continued growth ob jobs can cure that. The important point is that employment picks up and less people live in a precarious situation.
