INTIAL JOBLESS CLAIMS UP BIG … BLAME IT ON RIO, OR THE SNOW.
President Barack Obama ended his SOTU speech by saying “… state of our union is strong.” Really! Really?
The US Dept of Labor has posted the most recent jobless rate … 454,000, up 51,000 from the previous week, up dramatically than the predictions!!! It appears that they want to blame it on the snow. Really guys? I’ll bet it was “among other things” that was the cause.

What! How can this be! President Dodo himself said just the other night we are in the middle of a robust recovery. Or is this once again another lie from an elitist who has his head buried up his ass and doesn’t think we are smart enough not to believe the lies!
Obama spends over a million dollars on his recent Hawaii vacation…why not go to Camp David. Because he wants to go swimming, play golf and take his family and friends at the taxpayers expense…!!!!!
We need to stop his outrageous spending.
He’s sucking us for everything and in addition increasing the national budget…and he doesn’t care because he is a Muslim and follower of Rev Wright….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is from the same dude who thinks we need to
spendinvest our way out of debt.Then, it’s also the same dude that named his SOTU address after Newt Gingrich’s book and plagiarized several ideas from other SOTU addresses!
i have a great idea. we need to get a bill passed that the government has to pay taxes on all income every year. at obumble’s rate, almost 40% ?
this needs to be paid back to the citizens in the form of a check to every person that works and pays taxes only !
