President Barack Obama Says, If GOP Wants Me ‘To Walk the Dog or Wash Their Car, I’m Happy to Do It’
The United Stated economy is headed over the cliff and the Middle East is on fire and Obama is still in the silly season as the most partisan and divisive President ever now says, can’t we all just get along. Obama lower the federal deficit? Since when has Obama ever been concerned with lowering the deficit? Obama promised in 2008 he would reduce the deficit in half, all he has done is increase it like no other president before him. Actually like almost all other presidents combined before him.
Even though under Obama’s first term in office the United States has had 43+ consecutive months of unemployment over 8%, record federal debt including over $5 trillion under this president, record number of people on food stamps and Obama makes the following foolish comment, “If GOP Wants Me ‘To Walk the Dog or Wash Their Car, I’m Happy to Do It”. After nearly four years of not listening to Republicans, after nearly four years of Obama and Democrats insulting and calling the GOP Nazi’s and that the GOP wants to harm old people, children and pollute the air … 50 days out from an election Obama now wants to play nice? Give me a break.
President Barack Obama, on the stump in the swing state of Ohio on Monday, said that in working with Republicans to reduce the deficit, he was willing to show “more love” and even “wash their car” to get the job done.
While speaking in Cincinnati on Monday, Obama said, “The only thing they [Republicans] can do is keep trying to bluff their way through until November, and hope that you won’t call them on it. But understand Cincinnati, look, I want to work with them to reduce the deficit. I’ve said if the Republicans need more love, if they want me to walk the dog or wash their car, I’m happy to do it.”
Obama wants to work with the GOP like when he and Democrats did with ramming Obamacare down the throats of Americans against the will of the people? How about like that Obama $1 trillion stimulus package that was so bi-partisan?
The Lonely Conservative nails it with the best line of the day, “The guy who goes out of his way to skirt Congress every chance he gets. He’d eat their dogs before he’d work with Republicans, at least the ones with principles.” Amen Sister!

Mitt Romney’s Latest Political Ad Slams Obama’s Epic Fail Fiscal Policies ….” We Can’t Keep on Passing on Debt to Our Kids!”
Are you better off today than you were four years ago … the debt clock and your household incomes say no!
The latest Mitt Romney political ad just states the facts and the President Barack Obama failed economic policies. The Obama policies have been an epic failure for America. Household incomes are down and the national debt is through the roof. This year the US deficit will reach over $1 trillion for the fourth year in a row. But of course its not Obama’s fault. Why, because he, his minions and the in the tank main stream media tell you so. Don’t fall for it America. What do you think a second term of Obama would look like … even more debt passed off on the backs of our children and grand children.
Obama … Failing American Families
VIDEO TEXT: “Household Income Down $4,000 A Year”
Since President Obama Took Office, Median Household Income Has Declined By Over $4,000. “In January 2009, the month President Obama entered the Oval Office and shortly before he signed his stimulus spending bill, median household income was $54,983. By June 2012, it had tumbled to $50,964, adjusted for inflation. (See the chart nearby.) That’s $4,019 in lost real income, a little less than a month’s income every year.” (Editorial, “Negative $4,019,” The Wall Street Journal, 8/24/12)

United States Drops to No. 7 in 2012 Global Competitiveness Index Report, US Dropped for 4th Year in a Row
Yeah, here is yet another reason why President Barack Obama needs to be a one term president. The United States has now dropped to #7 in the 2012 Global Competitiveness Index report. Thanks President Obama. The US has dropped for the fourth year in a row because of exploding debt and deficits. Another four years of Obama and his $16 trillion debt and climbing should take the US out of the top 10 or even lower.
The U.S. dropped to No. 7 on the World Economic Forum’s newly released 2012 Global Competitiveness Index report. Switzerland retained its top position as the most competitive nation, followed by Singapore, Finland, Sweden, the Netherlands and Germany.
Asian countries continue to be among the most competitive—and many are gaining strength. Among the top 20, five are from Asia. Compared to last year’s ranking, Singapore retains its No. 2 spot, Hong Kong gained two positions, Taiwan remains No. 13, Korea advanced five spots and Japan
However, leaders in Washington have a bit of work to do to help America regain the top ranking . The report argues that the country’s drawbacks have “deepened since past assessments,” says the report. It points to a business community critical toward public and private institutions, a lack of trust in politicians, and a concern “about the government’s ability to maintain arms-length relationships with the private sector.”
What a novel concept that the economies decline occurs when business is demonized by the government. As reported at The New American, the American economy’s sharp decline in recent years is due to, among other problems, a lack of trust in government and politicians, especially by businesses.
According to the WEF survey, the American economy’s sharp decline in recent years is due to, among other problems, a lack of trust in government and politicians — especially by businesses — as well as declining macroeconomic and political stability. More important to the latest drop in the rankings this year, however: increasing fears over the U.S. economy’s fiscal health as the federal government continues to borrow more than a trillion dollars per year with no end in sight
But that is not all. The wild federal deficit spending projected to reach $1.1 trillion this year and the incredible failure to urgently address it contributed too, as evidenced by rating agencies’ decisions to slash their credit outlook on U.S. government debt last year. There is also the looming “fiscal cliff” economists keep warning about as massive tax hikes — so-called “Taxmageddon” — approaches quickly.
“A number of weaknesses are chipping away at its competitiveness … the U.S. fiscal imbalances and continued political deadlock over resolving these challenges,” another WEF economist, Jennifer Blanke, told CNBC. “If you look at competitiveness, what we are talking about is productivity. It’s countries that are productive that can support the sorts of rising living standards and high wages that everyone is looking for.”

16 Trillion Reasons Why to Vote for a New President and New Direction
Yet another powerful political ad with no personal attacks against Obama or the Democrat party, just the truth …
With the National debt hitting $16,000,000,000,000, the American people have been provided another 16 trillion reasons why to vote for a new President of the United States and to change the direction of America. Under President Barack Obama the National Debt has risen $5.3 trillion. So what do you think another 4 years would mean for America and “We the People”?
Video Hat Tip: 16 Trillion Reasons.com
Since President Obama Took Office, The National Debt Has Risen $5.3 Trillion, An Increase Of Over 51 Percent. (US Department Of The Treasury, TreasuryDirect.gov, Accessed 9/4/12)
In 2008, candidate Obama said that George W. Bush’s increase of the federal debt was unpatriotic. So what does Obama call doing the same thing in half the amount of time?
“The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents – #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back — $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.” (July 3, 2008) - RCP
America, can we really afford another 4 years of Barack Obama and a Democrat controlled Senate? Only 28% of Americans think that the country is headed in the right direction. How can we afford to continue along this path with this President? Some times you just have to cut a man loose.
It’s Official, US Federal Debt Now Exceeds $16 Trillion … And Counting
$16,000,000,000,000 and counting …
As the Democrat National Convention started their this afternoon, the US federal debt went over $16 trillion. Metaphor? In less than four years in office Barack Obama has already eclipsed President George W. Bush’s eight years. The increase in debt was bad enough under GWB; however, during the Obama presidency it has been unreal.
The Treasury Department said Tuesday that the federal government has now officially topped $16 trillion in debt.
The announcement, which came just an hour before Democrats gaveled in their convention in Charlotte, N.C., to renominate President Obama for another four-year term, immediately boosted the government’s grim fiscal picture back to the fore of the national debate.
Debt has risen at a meteoric pace under Mr. Obama — in less than four years in office he has already eclipsed President George W. Bush’s eight years. His advisors say he has a “plausible” plan to stabilize the debt, but defend his spending plans, saying to withdraw government stimulus now would hurt the economic recovery.
This has got to come to an end. The increasing federal debt has got to be stopped. This has become criminal. Any one who defends the record debt that Obama ran up knows nothing about economics and what is devastating the United States. However, if you think Obama has done damage during his first term , imagine, just imagine another one. Ramesh Ponnuru warns, “If You Think Obama’s First Term Was Bad, Imagine a Second.”
In another recent interview, Obama likened the Republican opposition to him to a “blister” that will be “popped” by the election (an image for which I will not soon forgive him).
If the president believes anything like this would happen in his second term, he is kidding himself. If Obama wins re-election, the Republican Party will react by moving right, not left. It will become less likely to compromise with Obama, not more.
If Obama wins, he will almost certainly win with a smaller majority of the vote than he got in 2008, in defiance of the usual trend: Incumbents who win re-election usually do better the second time around. Republicans will almost certainly add to their ranks in the Senate, and may take a majority. No way would they see this set of election results as a “decisive” statement of support for Obama’s views.
