The missteps just keep going.....

On the economy, they are so clueless that it appears their new strategy is to claim that the GOP is intentionally sabotaging the economy. Their evidence of this? None. Their explanation of how they could even do it? None. Apparently based on Bernanke's testimony they have absolutely no idea why the economy is getting worse. A 15-minute conversation with a small business owner would provide them with all the answers they need but I suppose spreadsheets and Paul Krugman op/ed pieces suit them better.

On Afghanistan, he apparently thinks we have gotten less for the $1 trillion spent on the war against Islamofascism over 10 years than we have gotten from the $1 trillion spent on porkulus over the last 2 years. His evidence for this belief? None. So now we cut and run to mollify the left wing nuts in contravention to the advice as his own generals. Mark these words. Within 6 months to a year from our drawdown the Taliban will be back on the move. There is a reason why casualties have increased five fold since Obama took office. They know he has no stomach for victory and the pressure from the far left and they are prodding him into surrender. Mission accomplished!

Oil. So he releases 30 million barrels from the strategic reserve. Enough oil to meet our demand for a few days. Result, oil price drops and the stocks take a nose dive. Of course it never occurred to the Messiah that increased domestic production could likewise drop the price of oil permanently without tanking the market. But the lesson here is that increased supply, wonder of wonders, actually reduces prices. Will wonders never cease? They must be aghast that the free markets can actually work.

NLRB is out of control. Between the Boeing SC complaint and the change in time for union votes the NLRB will send more jobs offshore than all the other economic missteps could ever possibly accomplish. Now a business will not even consider investing a billion dollars to create 2,000 jobs in the U.S. out of fear they will be overruled for the NLRB. Nope, take the less uncertain approach and ship them off shore. Mind boggling incompetence that even a good many Dems agree is a disaster.

Jobs. More negative job news and when you really dive into the numbers it is even more depressing. They don't know why. They don't know what to do about it. They are clueless.

Home prices. The slide continues unabated. They don't know why. They don't know what to do about it. They are clueless.

Health care. According to a McKinsey survey 30% of companies surveyed will dump their health insurance if Obamacare is fully enacted in 2014. Instead of asking what is wrong with the program the administration and the government media decided to savage he messenger. Their evidence that the McKinsey survey was flawed? None. So McKinsey released their survey data and it is even more damaging than they presented the data and the methodology was perfectly fine.

Hopeless and change for the worse!
