This is the most disturbing report I have seen since Obama took office. And believe me, there have been many! The sudden and unexpected drop in the unemployment numbers to 7.8% have economists scratching their heads. Especially when you consider that for every job “created”, the Obama Administration removes 10 from the workforce. According […]

It looks like the Richmond Times-Dispatch weighing in on Obama’s efforts to gut welfare reform signed into law by former President Bill Clinton caught the eye of the Mitt Romney team. While Obama supporters are trying to deny the facts and do their usual “out of context” spin and lies, Mitt Romney is telling the […]

The anti-business Obama Administration is seeing it’s policies damage the jobs market. After fudging the math by removing large numbers of out of work people from the count, the fuzzy math is proving to be too much to hide the dire condition of the US economy. The figures for May 2012 were just released and […]

It might not seem probable that Obamacare could cause more foreclosures, particularly among the middle class, but these are not normal times. When the Progressives decided to force an unwanted bill and unaffordable entitlements down America’s collective throats, they had a particularly copious amount of disdain for anyone who declined to purchase Health Insurance because […]

Earlier this month when the disappointing August unemployment numbers were released, President Obama said, “[O]ne thing we also have to do right now –- one thing we have a responsibility to do right now –- is to lift up our small businesses, which accounted for over 60 percent of job losses in the final months […]

It is an amazing thing to listen to some of the left wing media and politicians finally seem to realize that President Obama has screwed up. For the past 18 months, the man could do no wrong. Despite an economy that has not yet reached bottom, they pretend we are in recovery. They gleefully talk […]

The Dow Jones Industrial Average managed to bounce back above 10,000 shortly before the closing bell to close at 10,002. However, in after hours trading the drop continued. At present, the Dow is at 9,909 in after hours trading, down nearly 100 from yesterday’s closing. Today we will see the January unemployment figures. The drum […]

It has been a while, but the Bears are back. The Dow Industrial Average briefly dipped below the 10,000 mark a few moments ago. Tomorrow’s unemployment numbers are likely to add more bad news that the Obama Administration and the Democrats in Congress are impotent to get any kind of recovery going. About Tom WhiteTom […]

Sitting here looking at the horrific weekly unemployment numbers and awaiting the scheduled release of the January unemployment figures tomorrow and looking at the DOW, currently dropping like a stone at over -200 and headed below 10,000 from the looks of things, a song started playing in my head. I can hardly even notice it, […]

As the AP spins: The number of newly-laid off workers seeking jobless benefits unexpectedly rose last week, as the economy recovers at a slow and uneven pace. A rise of 36,000 to 482,000 seasonally adjusted (which is another way of saying it is really much worse than that). About Tom WhiteTom is a US Navy […]

As the monthly unemployment numbers are released each month, it is astounding how the Democrats spin this downward economic spiral. The job losses began 6 months after the Democrats raised the minimum wage. Despite warnings from Republicans that this will lead to job losses, as Companies are unable to afford to pay higher wages, Democrats […]

Well, there you go. Change and Hope. Hope and Change. Unemployment reaches 16% and the Obama administration celebrates a 10,000 drop in the weekly unemployment rate. The only problem is, the weekly figures first posted last week before adjustment – which is ObamaSpeak for the real numbers actually shows an increase of 9,000 this week […]

President Obama had a very bad week last week. He saw the entire week with a negative approval index according to Rasmussen, with the exception of a +1 on Monday. He saw Helen Thomas and Chip Reid attack Robert Gibbs for the “controlled” Town Hall meeting, signaling perhaps the end of the honeymoon with the […]

Liberals have had on their wishful thinking cap since President Obama took office.
