The Dow is up 200 because of anticipation of yet another dismal jobs report and that, in reaction, the Fed will release more dollars into the economy. Did ANYONE here take Economics??

How about we start with reducing the budget defecit by half in Mass, dropping unemployment by a few clicks, and actually LEADING a bi-partisan government (republican governeor with 86% Democrats in Mass Legislature) as opposed to telling his opponents, "Hey, I won." On the business side, look at Staples and Dunkin Donuts . . .

And the fact that the unions won't let the free market dictate which schools succeed and which fail.

You do whatever you have to do to convince yourself that obummer is doing well. Can you point to anything that the POTUS has done that can even mildly be considered a success? I know that you're going to come back with GM, but I' m telling you not to waste your breath... I am really looking forward to the Romney camp being able to use their campaign funds to paint this loser for the amateur he is....

Truly brilliant.

Funny how "non-partisan" now means former Obama appointees. How non-partisan can you get??

Don't let them see city hall in Buffalo.

Please don't sully the good name of "Fatty."

Fantasy drafts obviously occur in summer. During the summer, I like to drink Cosmopolitans. Not the manliest drink on earth, but 4-5 'em will kick your little hiney. So, one year the draft was at my house, I'm drinking Cosmo's and the fellers are ragging on me for drinking a pink beverage. Thus was born: Girl Drink Drunk. A fine Kids in the Hall sketch inspired the name...

A million years ago, my grandpa would give me a sip of his beer, a puff of his cigar and call me his kitten. Sigh.

Late to the party but let me see if I've got this straight. Company in Chicago struggles to compete in this economy. Rather than shut-down, said company decides to outsource labor to wherever. Numbskulls with no understanding of macro-economics feel that shareholders should hang on to current, unsustainable situation, bleed cash, eventually go BK, liquidate assets, everyone loses their job, Pension Guarantee fund picks up the cost of the workers pensions, taxpayers hold the bag. Did I miss anything?

More comedy gold from the most transparent administration in history.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Your political argument sucks. Bam "bailed" bailed out GM n Chrysler so that the UAW would end up holding the golden purse strings at the expense of the shareholders (the 1%?). Romney wanted them to go BK so that they would be relieved of their pension burden, and their debt. Your hero just did it in a bass awkward manner that allowed the union to walk away with millions, maybe billions of tax dollars and a stake in the company. Obama didn't save the auto industry, he saved the UAW.

This forum is an indictment of the American education system and the teaching of economics (or lack thereof); along with the constant drumbeat of liberal propaganda by overwhelmingly left-leaning instructors. Oh no! This money is in the hands of the "Job Creators" and if any of it goes to the governments that actually printed and issued the money in the first place it wouldn't be creating jobs....in the off shore accounts areas I don't even know what that is supposed to mean . . .

It's like listening to a radio talk show, or HBO's Newsroom... Anytime someone professes to be a Republic, my scepto-meter goes on alert. You "were" a young republican, but now that a epublican governor is dismantling the last 60-100 years of liberal, pro-union, pro-big government policies, he's lying. OK . . . . And were you in a coma while growing up in WNY? How does anyone think Buffalo and WNY were bastions of fiscal conservatism and small government? :blink:

He's a republican, therefore he is evil incarnate. Thus sayeth the MSM.

Do you live in this country? Do you have a job? In order to have a VALID job in the US, you need to provide a SSN and govt issued ID within 72 hours of accepting a position or the employer must separate. This is an invalid argument. Anyone who already has a job already has sufficient ID to vote. I call bullcrap.

I may be late to the party, but since YOU insist that MILLIONS of people will be disenfranchised as a result of voter ID, please provide ANY proof that these people do not currently have any form of government issued ID. How do these poor people get healthcare? Buy beer? Get any form of government assistance? Your arguments are asinine. I am truly dumbfounded that people think this way, and are prepared to defend a position such as this over and over and over.

Post of the year.

I'm astounded that BHO continues to run slightly ahead of Romney or neck & neck in most polling. I have to assume that the 20% or so of actual swing voters just aren't paying attention yet. Of course, most of them are likely watching the Today show in the AM, and then getting a rundown of events from Jake Tapper in the evening, and then watching Letterman . . . so they're inclined to believe that everything is wonderful, Bam is doing a heckuva job, and that bastard Romney is an evil rich guy.

A very well written and very informative article . . .thanks for sharing!

He won't get it. It's all smoke and mirrors. All you need to see is the line that states that extended unemployment and other pay-outs are considered tax cuts . . . Where the f*k do the a$$hats at WaPo think that the money for these payouts comes from? The Washington Post, unabashedly shilling for Democrats sine 1973 . . .

A Local Version And no . . .

Ha! "ho" to church!
