    LOL- Recovery Chart of the day

    Well, someone laughed at the Dick Morris link that
    quoted a guy in charge of the Highlander Fund who said
    this is not a recovery. See phony recovery thread.

    Here it is in black and white and with detail statement
    why this is not a recovery.


    _____________________________________________
    That is not recovery. It’s not even a start to a recovery. By cherry-picking 22 months, the best Greenberg can claim is job growth of 136,370 jobs per month, which would barely exceed the needed job growth per month to keep up with population growth.
    ___________________________________________


    Obama and his strategists can cherry-pick all they like. This chart tells the real story of Obamanomics and job creation during his term.

    Air,

    I think what is the most important part of this article is the first link, that the Demcratic Pollster said people are buying his bullshit.

    The “America is back” claim in Obama’s SOTU speech didn’t actually relate to economics but to foreign policy. That didn’t matter in Greenberg’s message testing:

    Claiming that “America is back” is by far the weakest operative message and produces disastrous results. It is weaker than even the weakest Republican message and is 10 points weaker in intensity than either Republican message. Overall, less than a third of all voters said this message makes them more likely to support the President and a third said this message made them less likely to support Barack Obama. Alarmingly, this message barely receives majority support among self-identified Democrats—and even less support among all other groups. Less than a quarter of independents say this message would make them more likely to support the President and no independents said that it would make them much more likely to support him.

    The latest Rasmussen poll of likely voters shows President Obama leading Mitt Romney by 10 percentage points (49 to 39 percent) and leading Rick Santorum by 7 percentage points (48 to 41 percent). The poll was taken yesterday — on George Washington’s Birthday — mostly before the GOP debate. Obama’s 10-point margin matches his largest lead over Romney in the 53 head-to-head polls that Rasmussen has conducted over the past 13 months.

    Typical Galen to derail the topic again when he gets owned.

    It's about the phony recovery Galen.

    Start a new thread on polls dude.

    :T2:

    But since you already hi-jacked the thread it's just a modest lead of a few
    points and he is the incumbent and plenty worried. Another thing you don't
    know is that 30M Christians did not vote in the last election. OBY won
    by 10M. McCain only needed 11M of those Christian votes to win. If they
    vote this time, that's all Santorum needs and why he's preaching the
    social issues and values he's doing. He's got Mitt on the ropes in his own
    state and could win. Some people in another forum are from Michigan and
    they said most of the state doesn't like Mitt or his father.

    As usual you left off the Rasmussen
    poll that says fifty-five percent of those surveyed believe gas could top $5 per gallon this year, underscoring the economic anxiety that will continue to dominate the campaign's narrative.

    And you laughed at Dick Morris when he said, it will kill OBY if gas goes to $6-$8 this summer. Now you're quoting the GOP Rasmussen poll while
    leaving off important stats.

    Rasmassen also says OBY has to win at least 1 of 4 swing states to be
    re-elected:

    Virginia, Fla, North Carolina, Ohio.

    My bet is Virginia is his best hope.

    But again, Galen can't comment on the recovery data and once the people
    figure out there is no recovery that's it for the hamster. Hell, most people
    don't even know there's a debt. That's why there's no out rage over it.
    Reilley's camera crew surveyed people on the street and people said
    what debt? There's a debt? They had no idea how much or how it got
    there. Only hard core informed folks like us are even following the election
    at this point.

    Like NC states above, people are buying OBYs bull shit - people like you.

    3 months ago Romney had a lead, 6 Months ago Gingrich had a lead. 10 months Donald Trump had a lead.

    There is too much can change between now and November to believe in those polss.

    I don't see changing is people somehow start believing "America is back" until it actually is.

    I have to hand it to the disciples of Lord Obama. No matter the rediculous, they have no problem making funny claims.

    Galen is just being ridiculous. His own link above shows OBY just 7 pts
    ahead of Santorum - 10 pts ahead of Romney who's falling out, even
    in Michigan.

    Seven pts is just a modest lead for an incumbent.

    That 8% was another stat pulled out of his ass.

    This Gallup poll which I posted on the other thread shows it going up
    to 9%, not under 8 and the under-employment rate which Galen doesnt
    understand is 19%.

    I also stated that it fell to 8.3% because the job force has shrunk, not that jobs were added. The govt conveniently over looks people whose unemployment benefits expired. They still can't get work so many stopped looking and they're not counted at all. As mentioned, it also leaves out
    the under-employment rate, people working part time jobs cause they
    can't get full time work.

    Now Take Michigan, scene of this week's crucial primary for Romney.

    The main reason Michigan's unemployment rate is falling is because its labor force is shrinking fast, economists said. The state has lost 4.6% of its workforce since 09, according to Donald Grimes, senior research specialist at the University of Michigan.


    As for that market figure,
    Galen also doesn't understand that the volumn of trading is 29% below
    08 which is bad. That helps makes that 12,000 market figure bogus because the gov't is buying the indexes, not individuals.

    Galen doesn't understand what that means either.

    He's just being deliberately ridiculous.

    Re: LOL- Recovery Chart of the day

    Here's a personal example to show how that 12,000+ market figure
    is bogus because the volumn is 29% below the 08 level.

    Here's the fund I was in on Oct 08 - CIBCX.

    I got in when it was at $40. It went all the way up
    to $68 in Oct 08. Then it dropped to $32.

    As you can see from the chart, there has been a 15% increase in the fund
    in the last 3 years. That's all I have gotten back. If the market is close
    to 13,000 points as Galen likes to brag, why haven't I recovered all my
    money. My broker said it would take 4-5 years to get everything back.
    It's been 3 years and is only 15% back. I'm still in the hole and it was
    considered a safe fund, not risky but nothing was safe on that day.

    There are many other funds like this where people haven't received
    everything back. Some funds might have received more than mine but
    a lot of people are still struggling.

    You see people on TV all the time saying their 401Ks are practically nil
    and they are close to retirement. Same thing there.

    Things are not as they seem as my last couple of threads have proven
    and as Galen doesn't understand.

    Oh, had I put that money in the credit union account at 2.5% interest
    I would still have all that money plus some because the APG Credit
    Union didn't lose any money. Prob was, it would have been locked
    in all these years and I couldn't use any but I would still have it
    all. I was getting 18% on CIBCX.

    As Palin said about Buffett - crony capitalism. LOL
