In January of 2009, Christina Romer and Jared Bernstein, then President Obama’s chief economic advisors, put together an analysis predicting that the Democrats’ stimulus package would “save or create” at least 3 million jobs by the end of 2010. Similarly, Romer and Bernstein claimed that passage of the stimulus package would keep the unemployment rate under 8 percent, falling to 7 percent by the end of 2010. But since that time, the unemployment rate has remained above 9 percent for 20 consecutive months, and there are 6.8 million fewer jobs than Romer and Bernstein predicted in their now-infamous report.

Worst. President. Ever.

In 2010, Obama’s War on the Middle Class is succeeding. This was the change you were hoping for?

Here’s the take from Investors Business Daily:

By presenting the CBO with incomplete, inaccurate and misleading data, the Democrats in Congress were finally able to come up with a cost score they like: $940 billion.

That’s the estimate the CBO arrived at. Like a used car dealer pricing a car at $9,999 instead of $10,000, the hucksters in Congress were anxious to get the official cost below the scary $1 trillion level at which things suddenly sound very unaffordable.

Using the rigged $940 billion estimate, Democratic leaders now hope to force a health care bill through as early as Saturday, seizing 17% of the U.S. economy by simply “deeming” the bill is passed — rather than actually passing it in an up-or-down vote.

In fact, the real cost of this health care takeover is more like $2.5 trillion over 10 years — not $940 billion. That’s off by, oh, 166%.

Here’s a better idea: KILL THE BILL. Cost? …. ZERO

Screw the kids, it’s the RETIRED teachers our tax dollars are supporting: “…The [school] board will cut band and sports, and increase class size, to make the pension payments.”

The ACORN Crime Family is shutting down and ReNaming is Underway. But wait! If they aren’t around to launder money, how will politicians pocket billions of taxpayer dollars for themselves?

Gallup’s daily measure of U.S. employment reveals that 19.9% of the U.S. workforce was underemployed last month, translating to close to 30 million Americans who are working less than their desired capacity.

Unintended consequences: Fearing Obamanomics, Obamacare, and Obammunism states loosen gun laws.

This will piss them off: A prominent Illinois Democrat is vice chair of a group paying Sarah Palin $100,000 to appear.  The speech sold out on the first day.
