Well,well,well!
The unemployment rate is now at 9.4%, of which yours truly is one of the many unemployed having to ask for an extension.
(update:landed a job)

I moved to Texas recently from the liberal stronghold of Washington state who's unemployment rate is now 9%!

The reason Washington state's numbers are so high is the governor of that state "her highness" Christine Gregiore. An idiot who should have never been elected in the first place.
She stole the first election in 2004 ala Al Franken style(not yet but he will) with lost votes, dead people on the voter roles e.t.c. and the idiots of Washington state voted her in for a second time! they knew  full well that she is a tax and spend liberal governor who; when running for office this time had a deficit of 3 billion that sky rocketed to a whopping 8 billion only 4 weeks after she was elected.
Washington state officials were "cooking the books" during her campaign  and hiding the facts from the people of Washington until after the election.
She has been steadily increasing the Taxes as an answer to the problem. (Imagine that)
I am one of many who are leaving (or in my case left that state) because of higher taxes and the higher cost of living and the impending 'carbon tax' where in Seattle if you drive over a certain amount of miles each month you must take public transportation or be fined!.

Washington was once allot like Texas. Independent fiercely fighting higher taxes and not standing for the politics of D.C.
But then; Californians started moving there and brought their "fruits and nut's" values with them about 25 years ago and the state has been in decline ever since.
The democrats then took over the state after the republican governor John Spellman was ousted in the 80's.
Here in Texas, the unemployment rate is 6.4%.
WHY?
Because governor Rick Perry (like him or not) and the congress has kept the business tax low, thus inviting more companies to do business here.72% of most new jobs have been, and are being created here in Texas the last few years,but it is by no means a sellers market for those of us looking for work.
It's a simple solution that libs and Democrats just don't seem to get!
Lower the Taxes and you encourage job growth. It's the same principal as selling in "volume". You make more money by keeping costs low.
It's the "occams razor" that fails to get into the liberals hard headed march to socialism and refusing to live in the reality that NOTHING IS FREE!.
NO I have not found a job yet, but I've only been here a couple of months. I am in the medical field and am on the verge of landing a job very soon.
My wife got her job last week and it's in engineering which is in high demand here and so is medical, but Houston is huge and it has over 150 medical centers with lots of applicants, so I have to be patient.
Now, on to the point of this blog.
I seem to remember moveon.org wasting no time after 9/11 putting out propaganda about George W.Bush causing people to lose their jobs. You know, those commercials with some poor lady blaming Bush for her losing her job to outsourcing blah biddy blah. And others blaming Bush for the economy that he had not yet begun to fix.

So he cut taxes, and in about a year or so, the economy rebounded and jobs were created again.

Are you getting this yet? And HE TOO inherited a recession from Billy boy AND a terrorist Attack (again from Billy boy and his inaction over 8 years) that threatened the airline industry and others.
Now, we can blame Bush for starting this bailout business.
 I think it was the worst thing he ever did in his presidency. But let the record stand. He did warn Barney Frank and Chris Dodd and the rest of the morons (republican's too) that id they did not stop giving loans to people who were not qualified for said loans that we would be in a housing crises in the future. He warned them not once but TWICE in 2003 and 2004 to his credit.
But OBAMA has taken spending to new levels and now you get what we have here .
 A recession on the verge of a depression, the government running banks and car companies.
Which is what the "uber left' in this country wanted anyway.
President Obama is arrogant,hard headed and a "do as I say not as I do, you have to sacrifice but I don't" kind of President.
The first 2 were EXACTLY what Bush was accused of.
Bush was even accused of being mentally Ill by Nancy Pelosi, but it looks like the tables have turned for poor Nancy, who IS mentally ill.

I'm no psychiatrist but she shows every symptom of a person who is delusional and has created her own reality where in 'bizzaro world' she is above reproach of any kind. she needs a good spanking (oh wait she's from San fransisco where that's considered a good time. hmm maybe an exorcism would be better)
I've never seen someone so out of touch with reality. It's kind of sad  (not really) to watch her deteriorate.
She should step down but she won't.
She REALLY thinks she's telling the truth about the C.I.A. and the democrats are buying it and covering up for her Illness.
So I wonder... why is no one putting out any hit pieces on the president for this mess and the unemployment rate going to 9.4%? The highest it's been since 1983! Well he is after all "the messiah". So get to it OBAMA! Stretch forth your mighty hands and fix ityou moron!
You could say that Ronald Reagan was in office in 83 the last time this happened.
But the country was in such a mess after Jimmy Carter nearly ran it into the ground, and I remember the inflation cause by his policies and the jobs not being there and the long lines at the gas pump.
Reagan CUT TAXES and created over 20 million new jobs, over his 8 years in office.
President Bush actually kept the deficit in the 3 billions until the last part of his presidency.
Now we can obviously see that Obama is not qualified to be president (when he was an acorn lawyer he's part of the problem we're in today). He admits we're out of money, and just keeps spending more anyway.
Obama is in the pocket of the unions and the banking system and is now getting ready to give contracts to GE because NBC is owned by GE and they are always favorable to Obama in their coverage so he's GREASIN THE OLD PALMS of these companies as long as they stay the state run media that they have become.

You'll not see anyone on the left blaming Obama for this mess. They still have 'Bush derangement syndrome' and can't seem to "moveon.org!"
Those of us on the right are just a bunch of racist bigots because we dared to protest NO MORE TAXES! How dare we speak our minds.
Obama is even protected from "code stink" concerning the war that still rages on in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama is sending 70,000 more troops by years end. Where is code pink? Where is Susan Sarandon and her "son" Tim Robbins?
Where's the rage from the drug addled punk Sean Penn? I've not heard him say Obama has "blood soaked underwear" because of the war like he said about Bush. It would seem his hypocrisy knows no bounds...
Why didn't anyone at the Oscars this year get up and rant about the war?
Well, because Obama is a Democrat and a liberal just like them. Before you know it, they'll (the left) be saying that Obama's just trying to protect the country. Really? Wow Dubya didn't do that did he? As usual, libs are never original.
I mean I kinda actually miss the entertainment factor of these screaming Mimi's!

Obama's untouchable (he thinks) but sooner or later the leftists will wake up to him, and what a fraud he is.That is, if they can get their face out of the bong and put down the crack pipe.
One more thing. As much as I like Hannity, I'm tired of his new slogan Conservatism in exile". POPPYCOCK! We are alive and well.
Republicans are ahead in the polls already in New Jersey and Virginia for now, and I expect comfortable leads and a few upsets in the mid terms next year. Yeah quote me. I make predictions sometimes and they have an 80% accuracy rating.

This is a mess that Obama will not be able to backpeddle his way out of unless he cuts Taxes, and spends more time here in America instead of going to the middle east and saying one thing, and then going to Europe and saying just the opposite to pander to whomever he's speaking to.
His speech tomorrow in Normandy ought to be entertaining.
Reagan did not use a teleprompter, and  if Obama shows up there with a teleprompter I hope the wind blows it over so we can hear his "porky pig" impersonation!
CUT THE TAXES NOW OBAMA BEFORE YOU KILL US ALL! America needs to wake up and hold his feet to the fire. Tax revolt!
I mean they can't even find room for 1 terrorist from gitmo for crying out loud, so how could they possibly find room in prison for every American who refuses to pay taxes they owe every april? We DO have power, but we are gutless and afraid.

He admits that this debt in unsustainable. (HMM didn't Mccain say this? not that he would have done any better).
And yet he keeps printing money and we keep getting screwed! When are we going to storm D.C. and take to the streets?
What have we got to lose that we are not already having taken from us?
A little freedom? That's already being taken. How far will we let this go? The future remains to be seen...
