Election results!

Who's happy? Who's sad? Who's going to go off themselves?

Overall I'm really happy with the way things turned out.

Definitely happy, although I wish Reid and Pelosi were in the soup line.

That's not possible. Only idiots make it to the higher levels of government.

True...I guess I am hoping for just a stalemate now where nothing happens...no government or I guess no changes is usually the best, at least in my eyes. Minus what happened these past two years, some change on that would be nice.

Sadly, this is kinda my thoughts as well. The best we can hope for is grid-lock...

Re: Election results!


Heres a nice FYI for you. Wow i cant wait for that to slam down to high job loss again.
You guys sat here and expected INSTANT freakin results. Nothing happens over night but its nice to see what can happen in two years. And this had NO.... NONE... NADA help from the Republicans.
Say good bye to your heathcare (Dropping people from having preexisting conditions, lifetime limits etc), Public Education (eliminating board of education, turning schools into a business), Medicare, Social Security, VA all can say goodbye. And if they dont raise the debt ceiling, say goodbye to the WORLD economy.
Can you guess how i feel about the Gov Now?

Hey Tom, you do realize that Bush was president until 2008, BUT Pelosi, Franks, and the Dems were in controll starting in 2006??? Right???

By your own chart, Bush was creating jobs through 2007. Can't blame Bush for something the Dems were in charge of. Looks like the down turn started after the Dems took control.

What does it matter? That graph starts at 2008. The whole thing seems cyclical to me.

What does it matter?!? He just said the president was sworn in a year before he was... as well as the Democrats taking control a YEAR before they were.
The graph shows the transitional year, as in, A year before he started and a year after he started.
And the whole thing being cyclical is just stupid matt, you know better.

Tom did you even read this? Everyone else should too. The graph is extremely exaggerated for a reason, to make their "point."

so you would call LESS job loss a bad thing? Yes you are still losing jobs, but not at the same rate as we were when Bush was nearing the end of his term... yet this is manipulating data to make it look better.... ITS BECAUSE IT IS BETTER TO LOSE LESS!

Re: Election results!

You really think the Obama administration had anything to do with the job loss going down? Or maybe the fact that no matter who is in power our economy corrects itself naturally regardless of how dumb the govt is.

What I am saying is that we could've had roger rabbit and the looney tune bunch in office and our economy would've gotten a little bit better over the last two years. Capitalism and the private sector will always correct itself as you have smart people making smart decisions and they can actually manage their money unlike the gov't that all they do is spend spend spend and tax us. The govt makes no money or jobs remember. They only give to people what they take from others.

Also there is a lag in those results...there is no way data like that would be real time, honestly it could be an entire term or more because of stupid ass laws that are passed and a number of other bs that happens world wide like natural disasters etc etc.

So that graph could be shifted 4 years and what we are seeing is all the shit that happened from Bushs last term. Either way a graph like that is totally inconclusive. I stand by my views that stuff like that happens independent of the govt. (job loss and job gain, the govt never helps jobs, they only hurt).
