Republicans are spinning more conspiracies today than you would hear at a truther convention
Apoplectic might even be too mild of a word.
The unemployment rate has been steadily falling under President Obama since the end of his first year in office. It was over 10% and has been falling at a pretty steady rate. Democratic policies work. Supply side economics don't work. The irony of Republican obstructionism of Obama's policies is, the drop in unemployment and improvement of the economy is all due to Obama and his policies. Republicans cannot lay claim to any of it. Obama and Democratic policies have caused the unemployment rate has fall to 7.8% Republicans. Deal with it.

1. Plus alot of these companies are sitting on a couple trillion of cash
They can't keep borrowing and hoarding it at almost 0% interest and expect their investors to buy the crap of downsizing and outsourcing their way to "growth" and profits. I think the rock and the turnip are now completely wrung out and crispy dry. They are going to have to start releasing it (spending) and build their way to growth (which means hiring construction folks and eventually others).

2. GOP - Don't trouble me with your facts
They live in fear. Fear rules them and they see conspiracies everywhere (hurricanes, voter fraud, birth certificates, skewed polls, etc.)because they fully embrace the paranoia that they have created.
Then they form groups and reinforce this created paranoia and think that limited/self-selected social support is proof their beliefs are correct. From that moment on they believe nothing from the outside - facts, evidence to the contrary, examples, etc. They will continue to hold on the the belief they created and create fantastical methods of making facts/evidence wrong in order to fit their new frame work. It is a form of mental instability. They demonstrate it very well. |
