1. I think you need to pick something that's recession- and republican-proof.
Have you considered careers in drug dealing or contract murder?

2. That is actually a profession that is a growth industry in GOP admins
During Democratic ones, work just slows down a tad.

15. For YOU it was great. Too bad you aren't concerned about the people for whom
it was a disaster.

Oh, and how have those wonderful free trade agreements been working out for the workers in this country? Real prosperity, eh?

I hope that someday you will understand that others have a different experience from yours, and that we are human beings, also.

4. Because, when Republican run things, everything falls apart and all the money disappears.

8. Hey, it's your OP
Every time a Republican gets in office - Obama 2009.

:shrug:

And of course, you follow through quite nicely with the teabagger "where are the jobs" mantra.

What else would one think you meant.

10. Considering we're still searching a bottom in the worst downturn in 80 yrs
Blaming anything at this point on Obama is quite disingenuous.

12. Yes, clearly it's the evil Obama's fault that the finance sector was laying people off.
Dear lord, the stupid here just gets stupider all the time.
