It was this way in 1929 - Hoover's policies of tax cuts and program cuts were what threw the US from a recession, to a depression

Lather, rinse, repeat

Don't they get it?

Or do they hate Obama so much they're willing to sink the US alongside the Lawmakers???

5. Exactly. They beleve what their puppetmasters at Faux News and Limpballs tell them.
I bet they will be blaming Obama's spending or high taxes or some other such nonsense on today's stock market dive.

4. Those New Republican Governors and their fierce cut cut cut
layoff of Public Employees and they fiercely "BAlanced
Their Budgets".

Actions have consequences.

6. No they do not
I had a conversation with a relative who is a right-winger and I mentioned that during Clinton we all had jobs. He replies, but he was a pervert. This is the crap we have to put up with. After that I decided not to indulge him on what he thinks a pervert is especially since the real perverts are right-wingers!

8. On a right wing forum somewhere
they're saying that the dow fell because we shouldn't have raised the debt ceiling.

16. Not Stupid
They will crash the Economy, Blame it on Obama and use it as leverage in 2012.

It's all about winning. One Million dead Iraqis can't be wrong. Do you think we deserve less?

10. What don't you get? It's magic! How else could firing 100,000s of gov't workers lower unemployment?

12. Keep connecting the dots for them.
John Boehner "I got 98% of what I wanted."

Dow sheds nearly 1000 points since debt ceiling inked.

Make them own this shit

14. A lot of people don't "get" a whole lot of things......
Are we gonna help them understand,
or are we just gonna talk about the
fact that they don't?
