A case of asking too much.

I'd not blame Obama for the sagging economy. That is, unless I were a Republican. Then it would make sense. Because idiots will believe almost anything. And a large part of the American citizenry are mentally deficient. No better proof of that than to look at Congress. Where Republicans hold sway. Fact of the matter is that the world's economy has gone into the dumpster. Especially in capitalist countries. Seems to me that the world's best/strongest economy is in China. Because China, though it has some capitalist tendencies of late, is largely a socialist country. That's the future. Socialism. Maybe blended with a smidgen of capitalism. Americans may be the last to wake up to such a fact. Especially if Republicans seize control of all branches of government. Republicans have accused Obama of being a socialist. And they have tried to block his programs and ideas at virtually every turn. So Obama can't seem to get anything done. To save the economy from further deterioration. The Republicans really don't want the economy to improve. Because that would hurt them in the 2012 elections. Of course, if the majority of Americans wise up, they'd see that the Republicans got us into this financial mess, and they want to keep us in it. Even at the ruination of the nation. The Republicans are interested only in gaining power for themselves rather than in saving America. If Republicans stopped to think about it, they'd conclude that doesn't make sense. But then, to ask idiots to think -- well, that's asking too much. --Jim Broede
