The Observation Deck

growth in business and employment???? The unemployment rate when Obama took office was 7.8%. It is now 7.9% and rising (excluding Cali numbers). And with millions of unemployed workers no longer included in the unemployment number because they have been unemployed for over a year.. The number is actually much higher.... We are only seeing the tip of the iceberg on how Obamacare is going to cost this economy more jobs..

Obamacare turns 2 years old -- the Congressional Budget Office admits the law itself is going to kill the jobs of 800,000 Americans. At a recent House Budget Committee hearing, CBO Director Douglas Elmendorf confirmed as much, saying that indeed indeed “there would be a reduction of 800,000 workers.

UBS Research predicted the “death panel” impact of Obamacare on jobs last fall, issuing a report (“Great Suppression II) in September 2011, saying that the medical insurance law is “aguably the biggest impediment to hiring (particularly hiring of less skilled workers).”

Obamacare also is straining state and federal budgets and because it raises the cost of labor, “healthcare reform systematically discourages hiring, especially of low-wage workers whose mandated benefits are high relative to their wages,” UBS said.

As Obamacare turns 2 years old, the evidence of its job-killing effect has been piling up.

This is after walking in an Bush's eight year kegger that broke the world.

Who stopped GSE reform?

6 Presidents tried for a healthcare plan

and? the affordable care act was passed (what happened to the republican obstruction there btw?). the bill, in my opinion sucks. i was never opposed to health care reform. total reworking mixed with confusion and tax increases i never supported. not because those ideas came from a black man but because, in my view, those ideas suck and still suck.

2 wars ended

iraq's withdraw timeline happened under bush (white guy btw). and as far as i can tell, and please correct me if i'm wrong here, the war in afghanistan is still going on

Higher education better funded

no beef from me there. must have been obama's black skin that got me confused for a minute since according to you i don't agree with anything our president does.

hundreds of thousands of homes saved for people

again, no complaints here. wow, the black president really has a hold on me!

Wall Street slightly better than pre-crash

gotta love "slightly". could be a great slogan for our nation. "america. slight better than four years ago". when did it become cool to wish for wall street to be better? guess the occupy movement missed that memo.

growth in business and employment

what growth? seriously.

debt reduction

eisel has covered this myth more than once. one word...deficit. oh wait, eisel is a racist. nevermind.

job plans

obama had job plans in 08. didnt happen. so i am to believe him now? oh wait, as you have reminded me, he's black. move along.

and a safer future

that's debatable. just so we are on the same page, i don't believe any one man can make america safer.

So if it is not leadership. It doesn't leave a lot, now does it.

well considering i went through your obama bucket list and explained my likes and dislikes i can tell you what is left...you, sir, are a race baiter of the lowest form. a closed minded race baiter at that. it's people like you who set this country back as far as race relations are concerned and you should be ashamed. but you are not. instead you cling to your flimsy excuse as to why some people don't back our president.

are there real racists around? you bet your photoshopped ass there are. i know of many right here in diverse lakewood. how they can function in society is beyond me but there it is.

it seems to me that you are covering for obama's shoddy leadership because he is black. white guilt much, obryan?

i know that i said i wouldnt reply to your racist drivel but i just couldnt help myself. blame it on the coffee (which i take "black-n-sweet" by the way). anyhoo, feel free to get back to what you do best...being a blame bush, bloviating race baiter.

He saw the problem very clearly...
