Facts are : Since Obama was elected the Stock Market dropped like a rock,Outsourcing of jobs has doubled,Unemployment has more than doubled,Our Debt National Debt has nearly Tripled with no end to the spending in sight,There has been little creation of new jobs and likely won't be with the burdens Obama and co. are placing on business and if Cap and Trade passes it will get worse.
Nice well thought out post chubminnow.

kyfanatic, no double standard here, you placed the high unemployment rate soley on the Dems and I simply said it wasn't fair to do so. The unemployment rate stared to take off in May 08 (5.2%) http://www.google.com/publicdata?ds=...ployment+rates and continued to climb to the point it is now. You expect Obama to turn it around in 9 months? Of course if it does start to come down I'm sure you'll use the it couldn't get any worse so it had to get better.

Stock market is doing better this Sep than Sep 08 and long term is looking good. http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5323373n

As far as the spending goes I didn't support all of it but something had to be done. Did Obama do the right thing? Only time will tell but things are looking better. Where would we be if nothing had been done?
