USA Today: On Super Bowl Sunday three years ago, just 10 days after taking office, President Obama said that if he wasn’t able to get the economy shaped up in three years his presidency would be a “one-term proposition.”
“I deserve a second term, but we’re not done,” Obama told Lauer. “When you and I sat down, we were losing 750,000 jobs a month. … Now we’re creating 250,000. We’ve created 3.7 million jobs in the last 23 months. We’ve created the most jobs since 2005, the most manufacturing jobs since 1990, but we’re not finished.”
While the unemployment numbers announced may sound good, one must look at the underlying statistic: those “not in the labor force” did in fact rise by 1.2 million, and the labor force participation rate dropped to a new 30 year low of 63.7%.
Maybe you are like Barbara Streisand and believe that Obama “has not put anyone on food stamps”. Yet as the United States Department of Agriculture reports, there were 39.6 million people on food stamps in February 2010. As of November 2011, there were 46.1 million, an increase of 6.5 million.
Still believe the economy is on the right track? Take a look at numbers from the Committee on Way and Means (from January 27, 2012).
| Before | Now | Change | |
| Number of Unemployed | 12.0 Million | 13.1 Million | +9% |
| Long-Term Unemployed | 2.7 Million | 5.6 Million | +107% |
| Unemployment Rate | 7.8% | 8.5% | +9% |
| “High Unemployment” States | 22 | 43 | +95% |
| Misery Index | 7.83 | 11.46 | +46% |
| Price of Gas | $1.85 | $3.39 | +83% |
| “Typical” Monthly Family Food Cost | $974 | $1,013 | +4% |
| Median Value of Single-Family Home | $196,600 | $169,100 | -14% |
| Rate of Mortgage Delinquencies | 6.62% | 10.23% | +55% |
| U.S. National Debt | $10.6 Trillion | $15.2 Trillion | +43% |
So Obama says “we’re not done.” Exactly what else is he planning to do to our economy if he is re-elected? Shudder to think of the possibilities.

sorry but i believe he just might get his wish, way to many people that want something for nothing. and as with any scam obama is good at getting the message across to the deadbeats
Blackpowder,
We may not be able to convince the diehard Obama supporters but we can certainly influence the undecided and the clueless. Our passion and our strength lies in our abhorrence of all he represents and all he is destroying. As the media glorifies the “new” unemployment numbers it is essential to talk about the 1.2 million people they are no longer reporting. As the pleas for more donations come from the Food Banks it is our obligation to expose how the poor are still suffering and out of work despite the media’s rosy outlook.
you might get the undecided but good luck with the clueless ive been trying for going on 4 yrs all i get is how bout them eagles? i like your outlook though
Obama will get his second term.
There is no way the general voting public will not vote him in again.
We have increased the government workers from 15 to 32 percent of the population in his term. The welfare roles have been quadrupled including the unemployed who get government checks.
plus the same Obama, Obama, Obamaa voting moron slaves will vote again.
There, again is no way for this country to turn around short of a revolution by the now minority of people who don’t want to loose what they have left.
Our best and only chance is a spiritual revival. There was a little positive news about Santorum. . .

Does he *”deserve”* another term… HE!! no! Will he attain another… sadly I am afraid his chances are good for it, yes…
Dadgumit, and it just isn’t right….. not right at all. And the opposite would be Romney, and oh boy… not anything there I’m thrilled with either.
IVTW, don’t be to quick to think he will get re-elected, he just poked a big stick at the Catholic Church and it isn’t going to end well for him, after all WE are all Catholics NOW, no matter your denomination.
We cannot let this stand, it is by far the worst thing our president could do to America. Our foremost freedom is being nullified and we MUST fight this to our dieing breath…
With out freedom of religion we will no longer be Americans. You know he will not stop here, if he gets away with it, there will be more on more rules that nullify our religious conscience until the state will be our religion…
Yes indeed, and exactly who did he say he way anyway?
Now we find out that the GA Judge is also rather undocumented:Post navigation← Older postsWho is Judge Michael #Malihi?Feb

Immediately after hearing that Georgia Judge Michael Malihi ruled against the Plaintiffs in the case regarding Obama’s eligibility to be on the 2012 presidential ballot, and hearing that Malihi was a Muslim Iranian, I decided to find out all I could about him. Is his ancestry really Iranian? Is his faith really Muslim? And did either of these things, if true, play a role in his decision to side with Obama in the Georgia eligibility hearing?
Why can we find even less info on him than we can on Obama? Birds of a feather? Who knows. Anyone who can lead me to more information about this man please offer it in the comments below. Until then, Judge Michael Malihi remains a mystery
With regard to the clip on the GA Judge the rest of the article is on Intangible Soul. This person researched the Judge and found very little.
Except his connection Connecticut.
Alice,
Please give us the URL to the video or article on Judge Malihi!
Hello. Not very computer literate so after looking for a way of forwarding it to you, I tried to Google just the name of this blog, it came up on top. So it’s”
Intangible Soul. Hope this get’s you there.
Best regards.
Thanks, Alice. Mark McGrew provided a link to this interesting article on “Judge” Michael Malihi: http://intangiblesoul.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/who-is-judge-michael-malihi/
Unlike other Georgia judges, there’s no bio on Malihi. An Intelius people search found his family members, all with Iranian (Muslim or Jewish) names. He’d also lived in Connecticut — the very state that issued Obama’s fraudulent Social Security No.
The mystery deepens. So too the stench.
So happy to hear you were able to find it.
It is truly odd, or only to be expected, one or the other or both. Anyway I know you are hot on the trail………….
Yeah, the Dear Ruler needs a second term so he can deliver the Coup de grâce to America.
I figure it will take him about a year into his second term to pull it off, as I expect the economic and financial consequences of what he has been doing – and will yet do, will really begin to set in.
Shortly thereafter, we will finally tip over and sink like a rock.
The scary thing is, at the rate we are going – and given the hole we now find ourselves in, it might not matter what happens next November.

You’re right. We have to invoke the 25th Amendment Section 4, or at least a patriotic cabinet member must do this, which would remove his authority on the grounds of mental incompetence. It was written when JFK was murdered and covers this situation too, because Barack Obama is displaying every documented known medical sign of a Nero Complex, and you know what Nero was like. We are constitutionally allowed to have him removed from office because our sovreign is not set up to have a Nero Complexed president. As well, because of the numerous violations of the constitution that he has engaged in, a member of Congress should have articles for his impeachment drawn up. There has to be someone left in the Congress who is a patriot, this plan to trigger World War Three will not wait until the next election. In the plan it was meant to have gotten going far sooner, from what I gather, the murder of Qadaffi was the way the drive for thermonuclear war started, but the Syria thing is dragging on a bit and the remarks Panetta made saying that Iran doesn’t have a nuclear weapon capability plus some intelligence reports that have been widely reported on the Msm as well as all the utterly contradictory reports that they are putting out too, have made it clear that this is another attempt to have these wars like we did with Iraq and the yellow cake etc. However, the latest freeze on the Iranian assets here and the hissing of Susan Rice and Hillary Clinton when the two vetos, Russia and China, were given in the UN show that they are working hard to precipitate a major war.
The financial crisis is fast coming to a head and on top of that the weather conditions and the amount of earthquakes etc that are happening, another in the Phillipines only yesterday, means that we should be preparing for disasters here in the US especially in CA.
On top of everything else, the planned famine that will be hitting us very shortly is yet another shot they, the oligarchs, are making for genocide on a massive scale.
The weather is being deliberately not researched, the satelites we have up in the Galaxy, some of them are sending signals, but the president has shut down the monitoring sections so they are not all being received.
The Russians and Chinese are making steps to provide work and progress for their sovreign nations by forging ahead with there space programs, their water management programs, their mag lev railroad programs and the plans to mine for valuable resources in Siberia, and for Ice breakers to navigate the Arctic Ocean so that a major trade route can be opened up to speed up deliveries of goods from the Asian Continent to the North American Continent. The president and the congress are fast dying out as did the dinosaurs, because they have failed to keep up with the times. The Universe is ever expanding and the conditions on Earth will not remain the same forever and our population that the oligarchs are so desperately trying to kill off, is needed in the numbers we have now and we will need more people to do the work that is required to equip ourselves to meet with the challenges we face on everyside. We need to provide educational facilities that will enable our generation and upcoming generations to create more and more sophisticated scientific solutions to be able to over come the challenges we are facing. Austerity isn’t working and more austerity together with famine, natural disasters, lack of proper education, and a thermonuclear War are not going to do the trick. We should take the reins over for ourselves and use the remaining parts of our government that are in place to reinstate Glass Steagall so that the debts can be set aside that are gambling illegal debts, and in order to finance the recovery we will need to have Congress utter Credit as per Article 1 Section 8, in large amounts, large enough to fund infrastructure platform projects such as Russia and China are attempting, so our people can go back to work and the necessary nuclear fusion and fission power can be put to good use so that we have enough clean inexpensive high flux density power to fuel our gigantic requirements. To give you an example of how the green agenda is genocidal, just think about the fact that solar power is the equivalent of the power it takes to make a sail boat move. Green energy that is being proposed is nothing but another genocidal method that is being pushed as the war on “terror” is being pushed.
You and I both know that the majority of the insurgents in Syria are from outside that country and that the weapons are being supplied to them from NATO and other similar interests, like Libya for instance. This means that this Syrian disaster is another manufactured i
