And all the while prices were going up and creating the biggest transfer of wealth, from oil consuming countries to terrorist supporting oil producers, Bush was kissng them and holding their hands.

I agree 100%

You're dreaming if you think low oil prices will fix this economy. There is NO work. We produce nothing.

Redman, you are absolutely correct! The United States is screwed at this point. Your problems go back four administrations to Reagan. NOTHING is going to fix those problems at this point. The manufacturing industry has left, and small business can't get a leg up any more. Your cost of living is insane, and most jobs are paying the same wages they were paying 30 years ago. Point this out to most Americans, and their knee-jerk reaction is "if you don't like it, then leave" - instead of dealing with the actual problems and facing the truth. Until you first admit you have screwed up and identify the problems that Reagan started, you have NO hope of fixing anything.

Whats comical is that a lot of folks, I guess not knowing the facts blame crude oil prices on Bush. But....Pelosi and the Dems have been blocking offshore drilling for gas and oil here in the US for 21/2 yrs. They have been in charge in Congress not Bush? Peolosi and here group have blocked any bill that comes up on off shore drilling. Lets focus the Blame (if we must) where it belongs , on Pelosi. 77% of americans want off shore exploration here in the US, so we can control the costs. Its to easy to blame Bush and his group...its a Dem cop-out and will continue as Obama bankrupts this country. What a scum she is and shes from California...must I say anymore?

People have used up all there unemployment benefits. That's why it appears that unemployment or joblessness seems to be on the way down.

Spending your way out of a recession is stupid, it never worked in the past and it will not work now. The only thing that worked in the last 30 years was to cut taxes for individuals, the little guy's. This gives them more money to spend which creates jobs.

We are losing our manufacturing base at a rate of 3% a year which makes up most of the middle class the drives the economy. Stop exporting the jobs, make it easier for small business to stay in business not tax them to a point of no return. There are more people working for the federal government then there are in manufacturing sector and thats just wrong.

Sugar coat it all you want, this is now Obama's economy. He's not kept a single promise. Cap and Trade, new taxes on the middle class and homes still foreclosing at record rates. No Jobs growth, the Trillion dollar stimulus passed under Obama is going to the left wing special interests like ACORN, the greenies and Unions. Bills are being passed in the dead of night with no 5 day review and we're running up a deficit we'll never be able to recover from. Thousand of earmarks totalling 5 Trillion dollars are being attached to bills and passed. Obama promised to get rid of special interest in Gov't he also promised that "NO" lobbyists would be a part of his Administration. No promises kept, no hope, and no we won't in 2012.

What world do YOU live in???????

We're being set up for a new world order. The Gov. wants to distress this nation so they can declare martial law. That will give them control over everything. You can bet the U.N. is involved in this also. It seems that the Pope also wants a world order, "there is urgent need of a true world political authority". Obama seems to be way to relaxed. He sure doesn't seem to to concerned about us. All these trips to these world leaders, who knows what else they're talking about.Decreasing the population also comes with a NWO. Take a look at these videos.
