He goes over with his hat in his hand to pitch for the olympics and comes back with his tail between his legs as a failure. We lost even more jobs this month than last month. His indecision in Afghanistan is costing more lives this year than any year since Bush invaded Afghanistan Maybe if we had stayed there in the first place and finished the job , we might not have to be fighting now . His own commanders ask for troops and Obama will take weeks to make an indecision meanwhile soldiers die Appears about as quick in making decisions as GWB .
Revisionism is wonderful , I seem to recollect as the credit market locked it was the financial markets that were calling for aid , when that aid came , it had the desired effect , while the credit markets may not be as free as they were , at least they are active .
Whatever administration was in power at present , they would have had to get the train wreck of the economy , back on tracks , that takes time . Americans , ( of which I am one , naturalized )want instant gratification , unfortunately economies do not work like that . It took years to get into the predicament we are in and unfortunately it will probably take years to get out of it , whatever administration is in power .
I think that the electorate felt the quote attributed to Albert Einstien “The definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” , was appropriate, trickle down economics of reducing the tax burden upon the wealthy to create wealth , simply creates wealth bubbles that burst . We then end up picking up the pieces and have simply privatised profit and socialized loses .
