President Obama!

Re: Obamanomics

(CNN) — In 2008, the youth vote helped sweep Barack Obama into office. Americans 18-29 spread the word on social media, energized fundraising and went to the polls.
In 2012, the youth vote is moving on and throwing those omnipresent “Hope” bumper stickers and t-shirts in garbage bins.
The 18-29 vote is up for grabs in 2012 because youth can’t afford cars to put bumper stickers on and those t-shirts are worn out from too many days sitting on the couch unemployed.
The sobering reality: just 55.3 percent of Americans between 16 and 29 have jobs. And earlier this year, Americans’ student loan debt surpassed credit card debt for the first time ever.

Obama Aides Say He Will Bypass Congress And Focus On Executive Orders During Reelection Campaign, “At Least Two Or Three Per Week”…
Sic semper tyrannis!
HONOLULU (AP) — Leaving behind a year of bruising legislative battles, President Barack Obama enters his fourth year in office having calculated that he no longer needs Congress to promote his agenda and may even benefit in his re-election campaign if lawmakers accomplish little in 2012.
Absent any major policy pushes, much of the year will focus on winning a second term. The president will keep up a robust domestic travel schedule and aggressive campaign fundraising and use executive action to try to boost the economy.

Aides say the president will not turn his back on Congress completely in the new year. He is expected to once again push lawmakers to pass elements of his jobs bill that were blocked by Republicans last fall.

If those efforts fail, the White House says, Obama’s re-election year will focus almost exclusively on executive action.

Earnest said Obama will come out with at least two or three directives per week, continuing the “We Can’t Wait” campaign the administration began this fall, and try to define Republicans in Congress as gridlocked and dysfunctional.

Campaign officials say Obama will fully engage in the re-election campaign once the Republicans pick their nominee. He will focus almost exclusively on campaigning after the late summer Democratic National Convention, barring unexpected developments at home or abroad.

Someone in the Obama admin., who is with him in Hawaii said, "Obama is no longer tied to Washington D.C." Good, then move the hell out of the whitehouse!

Re: Obamanomics

I can make a firm pledge, under my plan, no family making less than
$250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your
payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes. President Obama

AP Surveys Top Economists: Only 13% Rate Obama’s Economic Policies As “Good”…

Obamanomics FAIL of the day.

(NYDN ) — Turns out, economists live in the same America as the rest of us.

The Associated Press surveyed 36 top experts on money and markets from across the political spectrum last week. They rendered a familiar verdict on President Obama’s approach to restoring America to prosperity.

Just half of the 36 rated the President’s policies as “fair”; more than a third called them “poor.” Only five described Obamanomics as “good,” and none dared call it “excellent.”

Also grim: The consensus among the experts is that unemployment will stay stubbornly high, dropping from its current 8.6% to no lower than 8.4% by Election Day.

Little wonder that, after an $800 billion stimulus, a year spent pushing through an endlessly complex health care reform bill and presidential failure to embrace a bold, bipartisan plan to tame spiraling debt through tax reform, fully 60% of Americans now disapprove of Obama’s handling of the economy.

Little wonder, too, that just 22% think the country is headed in the right direction, while 72% see it going wrong.
With the 2012 Republican nominating contest set to begin in earnest Tuesday, the numbers leave Obama in the distinctly unenviable election year position of having to argue that matters would have been worse had it not been for his stimulus program and would have been much better had Republican obstructionism not torpedoed even his worthy ideas.

White House Official: Obama Will Claim He’s a “Warrior Of The Working Class” In 2012…

The MSM now has its marching orders.
(ABC News) — The president will continue to claim the mantle for “warrior of the working class” in 2012 in stark contrast to the public perception that Republicans in Congress are backing millionaires, not the middle class, a senior White House official tells ABC News.

And that message will be carried through President Obama’s reelection campaign next year. “We’re going to be doubling down on our commitment and our message in terms of fighting for the middle class,” Deputy Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters covering the president in Hawaii.

After a heated battle between the White House and House Republicans, the payroll tax cut was extended until the end of February — a battle the president ultimately won albeit for just two months.

It also delayed the president’s vacation here, but the White House official noted that it gave the president and his senior advisers time to work through policy proposals that they plan to roll out in the new year — one being to extend the payroll tax cut through the end of 2012.

The White House is currently honing its main message which was previewed in a speech the president gave on December 6 in Osawatomie, Kansas, where he mentioned the words middle class 28 times.
That message — give Americans a fair shake, a fair shot, and that everybody pays their fair share — is one shared by protesters of Occupy Wall Street and one the White House hopes resonates with voters.

]Obamanomics: Federal Government Takes In $6 Billion a Day, Spends $10 Billion…

Only in the warped mind of a Keynesian is this a sustainable model.
Via Fox Nation:
OBAMANOMICS BY THE NUMBERS:


-Every day, the U.S. government takes in $6 billion and spends $10 billion. This means that every day the federal government spends $4 billion more dollars than it has.

-The real unemployment rate is a jaw-dropping 11 percent.

-Every fifth man you pass on your way to work is now out of work.

-College graduates are now 34% less likely to find a job under Obama than they were under President George W. Bush

So, why is Obama speaking in Iowa tonight? Didn't someone tell him that he's already won his party's nomination in Iowa ?
It's purely a show boating move and trying to take away the thunder from the caucuses. You'd think after being away for a week or so he'd have some work to do. Campaigning is ALL HE KNOWS !! Why doesn't he at least wait 'til he knows who exactly is his oppionent and cut the shadow boxing routine?
Why doesn't he speak in Iowa on Weds. when he's have their full attention?
