Oh YEA! ITS ON!

its funny the people who are bragging how the unemployment rate is at 7.8 percent. you do realize that when obama took office that it was at that, so even if that number is credible, he still didnt reduce it, and as a matter of fact, i remember obama promising when he was elected that with the new stimulus package, the unemployment rate would be at 5.6 percent lol.

its funny how many people on here bash romney ( not saying he does not deserve any criticism) yet will defend anything obama does. under obama, the economy still ****ing blows, and for me personally as someone who makes a lot of money yearly, i dont need to be taxed more so i can ****ing pay for the bums who just decide to live off the government bc they are to lazy to get a ****ing job.

if you dont work or are lazy, obama is deff ur guy and should be, but for me i just cant afford for obama to be elected another term, it would hurt me, but to each his own i guess.

And you think that the unemployment number is credible? This is the same administration that said that Obamacare wouldn't raise the price of healthcare. It provided a number bases on a shell game to fabricate savings: they got the CBO to state the cost over a specific 10 year span, fully knowing that 4 of the 10 years were all tax revenues, while only 6 of those years would actually contain expenses. It was a deliberate attempt to misinform you and me. Now these good numbers come out within 2 days of all the headlines talking about how Romney cleaned Obama's clock in the debate. They are again attempting to own the headline and take control of the news stories to get Obama's failure off the map.

u cant argue vs these people who love obama, they will use anything to defend him. its not even worth it, i shouldnt have even gotten involved bc i wont win the argument, they are going to believe what they want to and nothing can change it. even if it was a credible number, thats still ****ing awful, its the same as when bush left, and if people destroyed bush over it, obama deserves the same bashing.

Like I've said I'm not an Obama supporter either, but I've yet to hear anyone say one actual way Mitt's Welfare program will be different than the current one.

with removing the work requirement. Those are strong words from the venerable Times. Yet Romney is still making the false charge. Ads containing it continue to be aired.

Presumably the Romney campaign continues its false claims because they’re effective. But this raises a more basic question: How can they remain effective when they’ve been so overwhelmingly discredited by the media?

The answer is the Republican Party has developed three means of bypassing the mainstream media and its fact-checkers.

The first is by repeating big lies so often in TV spots – financed by a mountain of campaign money – that the public can no longer recall (if it ever knew) that the mainstream media and its fact-checkers have found them to be lies.

Even Republicans admit the numbers are sound. Even Romney has admitted the numbers are sound(his stance is its not good enough and it took way to long). They are published by a non-partisan part of the government that has never given in to Presidential pressure, even Nixon couldnt successfully pressure them.

What's more, Burless said it's uncharacteristic of the Obama administration to lie about something like this. "Richard Nixon was notorious for distrusting the BLS, and he probably managed to frighten some long-time BLS employees," said Burtless. "But I have not heard any persuasive reports of statistical manipulation in the BLS, even during the Nixon administration. So it would be astounding if President Obama has been more successful along those lines than Nixon managed to be."

Only those who live in a reality of conspiracy theories believe this report is fabricated. Then again, thats pretty much all the right runs with: Make wild accusations, easily be proven wrong, declare a conspiracy.

Obama caught a break. The timing was incredibly lucky. But then again, had the numbers gone up, Obama would have been toasted.

Of course you are rob. You disagreed with something Romney said, that makes you an Obama supporter.

Overlooking the fact that a year ago many of these same people probably bent over backwards to keep Romney off the ballot because hes to liberal, keep in mind this is the same party that has been vilifying Chief Justice John Roberts as a closet democrat.

You are either with them or against them. Compromise is weakness. Pathological hatred for the United States government. Obsession over ideological purity. Vote Republican 2012!(Because lord knows it didnt matter what name was on the ballot).

its funny the people who are bragging how the unemployment rate is at 7.8 percent. you do realize that when obama took office that it was at that, so even if that number is credible, he still didnt reduce it, and as a matter of fact, i remember obama promising when he was elected that with the new stimulus package, the unemployment rate would be at 5.6 percent lol.

You can not be serious. Sometimes when I read these posts I feel like I am on a different planet.

We know totally disregard the fact that he stepped into a totally crappy economy with rising unemployment with an unemployment rate increased by 3% in one year alone before he took office.

Why? Because you say so?

lol... some people think they have ALL the answers. There isn't just two schools of thought in politics. You know that, right? "Your either with them or against them" ?! WTF is that? Are you a member of the nazi party?

I believe the correct accusation towards those who dont agree with everything Republicans say is "socialist". "Communist" is also acceptable.
