WHITE HOUSE: US STRONGER NOW THAT NON-DIALECT HAMPERED NEGRO IS PREZ

POST OF THE DAY - BUMPED TO THE TOP FOR NOW

Obama 'strengthened America' in first year: White House
The White House Tuesday argued President Barack Obama's "steady diplomacy" had made America stronger and renewed its moral authority despite "unprecedented challenges" in his first year in office.

Let's take a tour.
Domestic policy ..

Health Care ..2 different bills were passed, unfortunately no one yet understands them, and their differences are incompatible. However, Obama gets a point because he only wanted something to pass even if it was nothing. On that basis C+ FOR THE BILL.

Economic Recovery ..they are hanging on a technical definition of recovery which is most highly influenced by bank statements and govt owned major industries. The banks HELP make recovery possible by allowing the entrepreneurial to take risks. Are they? Bank products which invent new ways to sell non products (like credit default swaps) only make speculation increases possible, NOT JOBS. Transactions based on financial products on which commission and margin is made are mirages of wealth, not increases in wealth (except to those VERY VERY FEW who make the margins and grab the bonuses on which the charade fulfills the criteria..products DESIGNED to enrich those few, not create wealth by means of more production of any kind). The stimulus was really designed to prevent entities like Goldman-Sachs (who curiously got 100% on their AIG assets, unlike the rest of the world) from going belly up, with the public reasoning that if the banks died, lending would stop. Of course, lending stopped. The banks were petrified by their own greed and stupidity and inventiveness to back both, and suddenly wanted no risk on the books. Obama did nothing about this.
Ford has been successful, but not the others. Meanwhile out here in the field NO RECOVERY IS APPARENT, not only that but there is fear of risk taking at the local level by reason of double dip. The actual unemployment rate is over 17% and does not move at all. The number is not higher because so many DROPPED OUT of the statistics, having given up, and the fact that 661,000 fewer positions were available in Dec. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That irresponsible, greedy SOB

UPDATE:

U.S. Chamber warns of 'double-dip' recession because of Dem policies

F-, White House.

Telling me it would suck worse based on imaginary jobs saved inventomatic stats is BULLSHIT. I don't care. I don't want to hear it. Just get out of the way.

Bright spots

Gun and Ammo sales are way back-ordered.
Non hybrid seed sales as well.
Gold is at an all time high.

Now what do these things have in common?

Foreign Policy -
Russia .. they are building a new generation of weapons for themselves for the express purpose of preventing us from being the only 'superpower' and it was announced in the last 12 months. They are selling every weapon they have except ICBM's and nukes (that we know of) from planes and helos, to subs and capital ships. They are TOTALLY uncooperative, except by reason of diplomatic language on Iran (a weapons client). And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That overbearing, and challenging SOB

China .. rapidly expanding military, both in terms of weapons numbers AND QUALITY. They continue to fund our debt but at a decreasing rate, while selling us the products we must borrow on to buy from them.They are TOTALLY uncooperative, except by reason of diplomatic language on Iran (a weapons client). And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That unimaginative SOB.

NATO .. uncooperative on Afghanistan. Unable to stop piracy, still leaning almost completely on the US in the Balkans, and STILL with American bases for THEIR protection of THEIR soil, 65 years after WW2. Obama has ALIENATED the leadership of France, and managed to make one of his first acts returning Britain's gift of a bust of Churchill. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That, confrontational, 'old europe fearing' moron.

Japan .. a more anti American govt in terms of goals has never been in office in Japan. They show the most concern over North Korea. We continue to refuse them the F-22 Raptors THEY say they need because of Norkland. Nor are they the largest help over Iran.
China.

Iran .. they not only got all THEY WANTED from this administration, they were called the legitimate govt after a joke of an election so totally crooked riots in the streets occurred, and CONTINUE to occur with, REAL ACTUAL MARTYRS while this govt does it's best Stanley Baldwin 'we have to talk to them no matter what' imitation. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That axis of evil, fool.

Israel .. our only democratic ally in the middle east has gotten two things since Jan 2009, the cold shoulder and threats. Since then the leaders of Israel have made AT LEAST FIVE TRIPS TO MOSCOW. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That lack of attention, moron.

Iraq .. continues to generally improve, AND IT'S BUSH'S FAULT

Afghanistan .. OBAMA generally gets the idea. But the sensation it's all lip service doesn't evaporate, and I think that is also true of our enemies view of us. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That lack of attention, moron, distracted by Iraq (the only thing which shows DEMONSTRABLE IMPROVEMENT...so far).

Al Qaeda and Islamists.. only in the last POST 'he was an isolated extremist' horror show does the idea enter Obama's mind that maybe it's more than AFPAK in play. From Indonesia and the Phillipines to the atlantic coast of Africa, and Texas and Michigan, we face everyone from Abu Sayyaf, and JI to AQIM. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault. That lack of attention, moron thinking about Iraq (the only thing which shows DEMONSTRABLE IMPROVEMENT...so far).

Pakistan .. Obama has no clue. The center of the war is not Afghanistan, dude. It's the Taliban's effort to make Waziristan an impregnable base to GET Pakistan. But that's just one campaign they have under way. Obama gets points for drones, however. And BTW, according to Obama, channeling an 8 year old, it's Bush's fault for not dealing effectively with the leaders there.

But he does have a Nobel prize even if he made a world sized fool out of himself and us over the olympics, while the awards committee WITH OBVIOUS GLEE gave the Olympics elsewhere.

F+ to D- .

And we haven't mentioned Czars.
This administration is a shambles.
The banks are doing better.
The Russians, Chinese, and Iranians are doing better.
OPEC is doing better.

The rest of us are worse off today than we were in 2008. And your excuse is that things would be worse if you hadn't been elected, I bet.
GO HOME.
This world knows it's men against boys where we are concerned.
