It makes one wonder if the reason the economy is failing may have more to do with conservatives response to Obama in office and less to do with his actual policies. Sure, his policies do hurt businesses but, to what extent do conservative resistance to all of his policies have in prolonging the economic mess we are in?

The bulk of the current (U.S.) political economic damage was done by the 111th Congress who had full Dem control.
We have not yet seen the entire effects.
Most all legislation has created a negative impact on the majority of American citizens.
Any (if any) positive impacts have been limited and only directed at a small segment of society.
Most has favored the banks/corporations.
The world wide economic disasters were created by other countries' similar legislations.
All in favor of the banking/corporate agendas.
See if we can find some long term positive legislation that favors 99% of the citizens.
111th United States Congress
Acts of the 111th United States Congress
"Acts" can be interpreted any way that applies

Explain how in great detail. Be specific and do not lie.
I am willing to bet a years salary you will not answer any faster than the last person I asked.

If I may, I'd like to chime in on this. First obama had the "Cash for Clunkers", it was a good idea and it would've helped the US auto industry when it needed and I would've backed him on that, then he caved and allowed it to cover imports, imports that were doing just fine.
Then we have the all out ban on drilling here in the US, that cost us thousands of jobs in the oil industry, that would've put money back into the economy.

Reality there is that The SCUM have their strongest foothold on Europa and are now leveraging them into submission and any nation who threatens to leave the EU gets their credit downgraded.
If they truly cared about debt then no nation would have any but since they don't they are using that as an avenue to apply financial terrorism.
Credit ratings for nations should be abolished as that gives a private entity too much control over the fate of nations and are used for nothing more then bullying and leveraging!
The EU is just one massive land and power grab that shreds democracies and usurps Constitutions and is causing more chaos then it is solving.
Outlaw and eliminate the EU, allow these nations to return to their currencies and watch how much faster Europa comes back.edit on 27-11-2011 by TheImmaculateD1 because: (no reason given)

Corporations in the US have no reason to hire with Obama in office.
They also have a reason not to hire in that it will make Obama look worse.
The tea party does not need to do anything to hurt Obama as he is his worst enemy.
Also start saving money as in the spring gas prices will start climbing as the oil industry gets there hooks in to defeat Obama
