Didn't start with obama... Granted, he didn't make it any better, but he certainly didn't start it. (this includes his administration.)
You are absolutely right but since Bush this economy has significantly worstened and the debt is unsustainable. This is obamas doing. 3 years later the unemployment hasn't changed and he wants to spend more money on a jobs bill lol, he's completely clueless.
the certainly has improved over 3 years ago, but you continue in your delusional world...
not a fan of Obama but trying to say the economy is his fault is just plain stupid.
Apparently, a bunch of the wall st. protestors are having their personal items stolen by theives. Interesting how the people who want a re-distribution of wealth are complaining when their posessions get re-distributed.
Oh great! The Upper class and Lower class are now robbing from the Middle.
Can't believe I missed this piece of sarcastic, yet truthful humor.

Citation?
Where? When? What qualifies as "a bunch?"

Attention! Links, please. I haven't found anything yet.
I am certainly not an Obama supporter. Not one bit. But this isn't his fault...
You must be kidding me. Can anything possibly be his fault in your eyes? Unemployment hasn't changed in 3 years, we are over $14 trillion in debt, his policies such as gov't healthcare will further bankrupt our country, he does nothing about illegal immigration which is also killing healthcare and tax payers, failed stimulus programs, his foreign policy strategies are a joke......I could go on all night. And he is not to blame for anything??? You are ill informed my friend. I have a hard time believing you are not an obama supporter. If you are then that is your choice but to say this isn't his fault is pure madness.
It's more of congress's fault than Obama's as they actually write the laws...
but illegal immigration really doesn't have to do with the fact that the cost of living is insanely high and people don't have enough money to stimulate the economy as they don't have any after bills.
Only one stimulus was placed into effect after Obama took office (iirc) and the current one (which is the one that should of been done in the first place) is being ***-blocked by republicans.
Short of not trying to start ***with every nation, that's really all he's done.
As for the healthcare, they should have went with a public option, would have been much better for everyone, except we now have this bipartisan (ha) joke (near mirror of the 1994 republican health care alternative to Clinton-care)
yeah, republicans like to forget all about that...
I already said I am not an Obama supporter. Learn to read. The fact that he has done nothing successful doesn't mean that he is to blame for the state of the nation. It just means that he hasn't done anything.
Housing market crashed before he was in office.
Bush signed the bailout that gave the banks the rest of our money. It isn't Obama's fault.
Since we're assigning blame now, I think it's all Nancy Reagan's fault! Nobody suspects the woman in Oscar de la Renta! Turn your back on her, and she'll gut you!

To be fair, the national debt was at $10 trillion at the end of the Bush presidency. As for foreign policy, from what I understand Europeans actually tend to like Obama. Immigration is a discussion for another time.
Regardless, you can't just pin it all on one guy who doesn't even write the bills he passes.
Ok, I posted a link to it back on page 2 or something. And now I'm posting it again, because I am a glutton for mockery and punishment. This is what I think is the root of the problem (keeping in mind that I am no political genius and tend to ignore politics altogether when possible and so I understand if I am *gasp* WRONG. This is just my opinion.)
Not several posts ago you said it was "all" his fault. Which one is it?
Similarly, you claim in one post it's easy to start a business and make your own opportunity, then in the next, claim it's too hard to do because of Obama's policies.
You claim there's "a bunch" of thievery going on at Occupy Wall Street, ignore the request for a citation until nagged about it, then provide a link to one tabloid article citing one example which was itself just hearsay to begin with. So is it "a bunch?" Or just one?
Do you even try to be consistent in these threads, or will you always shoot straight for whatever convenient hyperbole or questionably fluid life story is needed for the moment in order to blame Obama for whatever topic is at hand?
If you have reasons why you think he is succeeding then share it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I honestly don't understand how you don't think any of this is his fault. What has he accomplished in 3 years??
What happens when/if your children are seeking financial aid, and do not qualify because your business makes too much money? What will you tell your children then? "Don't go to college!"
Can he be topic banned yet? This is getting annoying to read.
Nobody's forcing you to read it bud. If it's getting so annoying, why doesn't someone educate me on what obama is doing that has been successful?
You've already been told probably 50 times on this site alone over the past year. Seriously, shut up and stop cluttering up threads with your stupid uneducated ***.

Well, we'll do that when you capitalize proper nouns and use correct punctuation. Maybe we'll take you more seriously too.
Well, it's been going on for almost 2 weeks now so I guess it's newsworthy, yet I haven't seen much about it. It's a protest on Wall Street, primarily on the greed and corruption that festers in that area. Between government bailouts of big banks, lobbyists being the directors of lawmaking, and politicians who give in to these obvious benefits, we've seen a great deal of corruption in the US as of late.
Just May of this year, Obama's appointed Meredith Baker went from being the FCC Commissioner to a top lobbying position for Comcast-NBC. Something, just months prior she had used her FCC vote to try and benefit. An obvious conflict of interest.
Or how about General Electric(GE) getting tax refunds by making its profits all off-shore.
Now, this certainly isn't a Cairo sized event, but it very similar to how their protests began. It started with a large group of young citizens, of course. It's usually a common dismissal for some people. "Yeah, yeah, they're college aged kids who think they'll make a difference, whatever." The fact is, is that protests will always come from this group first and foremost. They don't have the daily responsibilities of taking care of a family which ties older age groups down. Not that different age groups can't support them via the means of internet media.
Well, anyway, there has also been accounts of police misconduct. The protests have been primarily peaceful sit-ins, regardless there was use of pepper spray in one instance.
If you're interested, keep your eye on this movement. I doubt it will be a revolutionary event, but it does express a lot of popular disdain for current issues with corruption.
