Midknight Review -- new and revised: How is it that our economy is "booming" when these question are never addressed?

How is it that our economy is "booming" when these question are never addressed?

So, how come when Obama brags about his economy, that he "saved the world from recession" (he actually said that) he never mentions these related facts: that while 160,000 folks went back to work, last month, 362,000 gave up looking for work and dropped out of the workforce altogether? How come he never mentions that his "5%" unemployment rate has 7-9 million more people out of work than GW Bush's "5%" rate? How come he never mentions his 1.3 average GDP rate? Not important? What about the workforce participtation rate? It fell below 63%. It was 66% during the Bush 43 years which represented 7 million or more folks participating in the workforce. How come he never brags about increasing the population stuck in poverty or the near-doubling of the food stamp population? Even more importantly, how comes he never admits to being stupid?

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
