Obama's Weekly Address: 'Economy's Growing For First Time In A Year' (VIDEO)
Commented Dec 08, 2009 at 00:42:17 in Politics
“I don't think he's saying Obama is responsible for the economy going down. He's upset that Obama would lie to our face and state the economy is rising. It's all an illusion. Consumer spending wasn't great. It did well online, but many did not go out and buy like they did many years ago. People are living in frugal times, which is good i believe, since it teaches us the meaning of living a simple life. I like the President but we have to hold him accountable. He now wants to stay in Afghanistan, where there are a few al qaeda members and the Afghanis are afraid of the taliban and do not trust the american soldiers. I don't blame them, cause for years promises were made to them after the soviets left, nobody helped to rebuild their country. They actually were the ones who won the war for America. America can't even rebuild Iraq, you actually think they can rebuild the devastation in Afghanistan? They don't want to catch Bin Laden cause he was never meant to be caught. This has been going on for decades, hundred years, thousand of years. It's not going to change until the Afghanis do it themselves and America can't do that for them.”

“Excuse me. I don' listen to McCain nor Palin. I read the NYTImes, the Huffpost, various newspapers and pay attention to leading economist in this country. They all have said, unemployment will continue to rise. Wall Street is making money not Main Street. You actually believe of the trickle down effect bull? Please. It doesn't work, it never have work, nor will it work in the future. Companies are not hiring, and people who still have jobs, are doing double or triple duties of their former co-workers' jobs. Just cause Stock market is going up and banks beginnning to pay their TARP doesn't mean anything. They paying their TARP because they can't find a CEO who can run their company cause those greedy CEO's don't want a cut. Wake up. Stop living in la la land and take every word the president say to you. The president has great intentions in helping the people, but remember he's a politician and he as many advisors that are not thinking about you or me or main street. Remember that.”

“GDP is growing. Stock Market is growing, but Unemployment is rising and Consumer spending is at a halt, and health care is rising. Explain to me how the Economy is rising?”

“It won't be sustainable. Not when the 'profits' are engineered by cutting quality and proper paying jobs, so the people in turn could buy the products, which in turn helps the business generate true profits.
I don't see how the economy is rising either, if businesses are still bleeding massive amounts of jobs. And with the big companies lowering wages, the smaller business won't be able to compete at all.
If things remain the same.”

“Tear yourself away from Faux Entertainment long enough to read it for yourself. Not that you could understand it anyway. Or you would know that unemployment is a lag indicator. Stock Market going up, And......c onsumer spending was up on Good Friday, the Senate is in the process of creating a health care bill to do something about rising costs, durable goods report is improving, Corporations beginning to posts profits, unemployment numbers are slowing down. Banks beginning to pay back TARP money that both McCain and Palin supported during the campaign. If McCain or Palin had these results you would think they were wonderful.”

“If you base your analysis on the circumstances of the moment, you're not going to discover anything and post thoughtless comments.
If you look at the TRENDS of the last three months and compare them to historical TRENDS then you see the economy is in the beginning stages of recovery. The stock market leads, jobs follow.
If you feed on negative information and disseminate negative information, you're no help to anybody.”

“When I read the bible, at least the old testament anyway, it seems that most of the time, that the authors are paying way too much attention to sex: plenty of incest, multiple partners, adultery, "many sins of intimacy" which are not out-rightly condemned within the narrative. ..
So using the bible to define the most intimate of relationships, marriage, as only between a man and a woman, and that the bible stands as a guidepost for our lives, blah, blah... well, maybe you as a religious man/woman can tell me what was up with Noah and his son Ham, or that David performed an act of Adultery, that it was magically solved with a mikva.

BofA Credit Card Terms: Bank To Spell Out New Interest Rates And Fees

“That is why I have no credit cards and no debts. The only debt I have is my loan from my state school that cost nothing compare to the private schools that don't offer adequate education compare to community colleges. Most of the times you get the same education or even better. Private schools, big names schools are just big name schools, nothing special.
Anyone who believes for one to live you must have Credit, (really I believe Credit equals DEBT), then you are delusional. Everyone say, oh you must have Credit to buy a house, a car, or for emergencies. Before Credit Card people lived. Before Credit Card people rented or built their houses out of their pockets and lived within their means. Just cause you borrow to get a big house with triple rooms where nobody sleeps in, doesn't mean you owned the house to began with, it's the banks. Before Credit Card people walked instead of drive. They were in shape, healthier and the environment was cleaner. Before Credit Cards, emergencies, well there was always emergencies, but people coped.
Stop buying into the biggest Ponzi scam people. If you don't have the cash you're better off than borrowing money you can't pay off. Now you'll be in real sh*t and which you are in already.”

“CaliGrown79 you just summed up exactly what I've been through, minus my first name screaming Black. My first name is generalize as being a very very white name, it's really an old name from back in the 30s-50s, and my last name is so European. So you know what I'm going through. I went through lots of times where I aced the phone interview. Always and I mean always hitting it off with the interviewer on the phone and then later to coming in for the face to face interview and it's just complete, an utter silence. They really wasn't expecting a black female coming through their door. lol. Thanks for the post.”
