Republicans Attempt to Sabotage U.S. Economy!

Our good old Republicans are at it again.  See their letter to Mr. Bernanke here.  You have to give them great credit to so openly attempt to stop any progress with this difficult economic situation, but that is what they are doing with this latest warning.  If it wasn't for the Fed's recent actions we would be a catastrophic depression right now.  What would Republicans like?  I guess they would like congress to do nothing except lower taxes on the wealthy and for the Federal Reserve to do nothing. Well, if the politics of it all weren't so obvious I guess it would be amusing.  I think the Republicans are starting to over-reach and it will hurt them come the election.  Their plan: do nothing to improve the economy, block all attempts to improve it, sit back and win the White House in 2012.  I think enough will see through their cynical politics to vote their asses right out of office.

More Republican Lies Exposed

It's truly remarkable that the main-stream press doesn't refute the lie and lie spewed from Republican talking points.  Over and over we have heard how Obama's stimulus package made things worse and caused more job losses.  It's another Republican lie and the fact that they can just repeat it over and over without any accountability is appalling.  Anyway, this chart from the Congressional Budget Office says it all.  It clearly portrays the CRISIS that Obama inherited from that war-criminal Bush.  Without the stimulus package we would probably be looking at a much higher unemployment rate.  The stimulus package that was enacted in early 2009 clearly stemmed the tide and turned the situation around.   How Republicans can get away with their lies while the press stays silent is beyond belief!
