The President explains how the Recovery Act helped end our economic free fall, and how his agenda is helping to set a new foundation for our economy. From health reform, to energy, to creating the jobs of the future, the President’s proposals will make our economy stronger for both the current generations and our children, all in a way that will get our deficits under control.

1. Ya - just like the IT jobs of the 90s
Which are all in India now

That line of Crap was used before. We need to dump this notion of the "Global Economy" and "Free Trade" (which is only Free if your outside the USA) and start looking towards our manufacturing industries as the strength of the American Economy

You can manufacture all the Bad Loans, Credit Default Swaps, and Derivatives you want - they are a false economy and only lead to economic ruin

4. Dig out the wax and listen again. Start up green energy shops in CA, MI, etc., road projects all
over the country, real investment in a long term green energy future, ... Can you please stop bitching and be glad we're on a much better course with Obama than Bush.

8. BULLSHIT - they are already moving Silica Wafer plants to Mexico
in anticipation of a huge demand for Photovoltaic wafers

BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT

As you can see from looking around yourself at all the FORECLOSED signs in your neighborhood the "Global Economy / Free Trade" Crap is working really well

2. That's a very cool idea on whitehouse.gov people sending out youtubes of...
their stimulus sucess stories. The bill won't work for everyone at once but with time there will be ripple effects and possible a further recovery bill down the line.

3. I am encouraged but do get tired of the opt-repeated phrase...


'...affecting police officers, teachers, and fire fighters...'

We get it. And yes, we get that the problems were inherited.

But we also get that the administration back-massaged Wall Street and the Banks, who are doing a lot better than those very same police officers, teachers and fire fighters. A whole helluva lot better.

7. Time, more time!
Will you still be saying that in the fall of 2012? Without the constant pull from the left, the mule is likely to stay put.
