Good job Obama, this economy is your baby now.  You inherited a bad situation and have made it much worse with your reckless spending, lack of detail, and anti-business rhetoric. Talking down the economy isn't looking too good now is it?  You are turning a recession into a depression you asshole.

WTF are you talking about?

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

What's so idiotic?  Since the election all he has done is talk down this economy and cause panic among people, businesess, and the markets.  Why did his tone change so dramatically in his speech last week?  All of a sudden he turned into the black Ronald Reagan with his optimism.

Where in hell has Tim Geithner been, and where is the plan to deal with toxic assets?  I'm no Hank Paulson fan, but at least he was trying to help solve problems.  Boy wonder has been MIA, and when he did speak on the issue, it was a disaster.

The markets know that this unprecedented spending is going to lead to terrible inflation and the destruction of the dollar. We were promised change, but he is going to sign a traditional Washington spending bill with thousands of earmarks.  That doesn't inspire confidence.

He announces tax increases in the middle of a deep recession.  Is he stupid?  With the markets so wobbly, how about waiting on that until it's on better footing.  Even better would be not doing it at all, but that's way too much to ask.

There seems to be no cohesive plan, no strategy.  This problem can't be fixed by cutting one-off deals like we're seeing with AIG and others. 

He didn't create this situtation, but he is doing a terrible job of dealing with it.  It's his now, he owns it. The Democrat Party owns it.  There is no running away from it.  People don't want to hear excuses and blame put on others.  We want solutions and he has not offered any.

I am not going to let Republicans pin this on us.

This is starting to sound familiar here.  You guys cannot escape this.  The Democrat party has run Congress since the 06 elections.  We now have a Democrat president with huge majorities in both houses of congress.  You guys run the show now. 

Try as you might, you cannot run away from this.  Governing is a lot harder then running, ain't it?
