BF2S Forums Obama's Rhetoric Is the Real 'Catastrophe'

A little farfetched to blame the global recession on Obama tbh ...

Yer right, the blame will be found in his solution

Here is what I find funny. I was listening to the radio and listened to some statistics that I knew I would not hear on any tv station or nightly news on cable or tv. Good news just doesn't make the news.

In the Detroit 6 county area in Michigan, Housing sales went up an average  of about 28 percent and Oakland county rose 48 percent. Yes, about half of the sales were of distressed properties but the sign is that these homes are finally moving and they are moving in one of the worst states to be hit by the housing bubble. Car sales in Michigan went up 1.6 percent.

I find it funny that these kinds of news items were not to be found anywhere on the local news, the national news or any tv outlet that I noticed. Good news would probably breed some confidence but I am hearing nothing except here and there and it is on the radio.

It's like that over a lot of the country. You'll see they usually focus on the negative aspect. The median home value is shit, but once the inventory clears out it will get better.

This is about the current administration.  You can't blame everything on Bush.  New talking points please.

I haven't ever blamed much on Bush really. I just think it's funny to say that Obama turned fear mongering to get what he wants into a art, after a month where as the last admin had been doing it for the 8 years before that daily.

Obama was supposed to represent change (whatever that is), no?

this is change




and our children will never get it, now that the stimulus plan has passed our children will have to work 13 months a year to pay their fair share.
