Unemployment Hits 10% for First Since Early 80s
The unemployment rate sits at 10.2%, the highest it has been since 1983.
What happened to saving and creating jobs with your wasteful stimulus package, Chairman Obama? Remember that? It was supposed to save the economy, just like Bush and Paulson’s TARP debacle.
Get ready folks. We are headed for a prolonged period of high unemployment, little [...]

George W. Bush Should’ve Practiced What He’s Preaching
By Josh Price
President George W. Bush has ended his silence on Chairman Obama’s economic policies. He does not directly criticize Chairman Obama’s approach to the economy but it’s certainly insinuated.
Take, for example, his belief on what will get the economy back on track:
“I know it’s going to be the private sector that leads this country [...]
President Bush Shilling for Obama: Asks Congress for Remainder of Bailout
Why make President-elect Barack Hussein Obama ask Congress for the last $350 billion of the Troubled Assets Relief Program (also known as Foundation of Socialism in the United States Act) even though he’s the one who wants it? President Bush should do his dirty work for him. Oh wait, he has.

President Bush Regrets not Passing So-Called Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill, Warns Republicans Against Becoming “Anti-Immigrant”
President Bush still doesn’t get it. He believes that those of us who opposed him on the so-called Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act are anti-immigration, not anti-illegal immigration.

President Bush: “I’ve Abandoned Free-Market Principles to Save the Free-Market System”
Let me write that again.
According to President Bush:
I’ve abandoned free-market principles to save the free-market system

Iraqi Journalist Throws Shoes at President Bush
This helps t make two points. First, this is what President Bush has become; He has been relegated to ducking shoes thrown by foreign journalists. Wow. Just wow.
Second, this is more proof of just how ungrateful many Iraqis are for their liberation. Yes, I know, this wasn’t an “everyday” citizen throwing the shoes at President [...]
Bush Launches Campaign to Improve Image
During my routine blog prep this morning, I ran across that headline above–”Bush Launches Campaign to Improve Image.”
While I’m processing that headline in my head I’m reminded of this economic crisis going on, as well as the terrorist attack in Mumbai. I’m thinking to myself, “There’s got to be more to this story than Bush [...]
South Carolina Jim DeMint Accurately Diagnoses Cause of Republican Party Defeat
If you’ve read this blog for any length of time you undoubtedly know I have a tremendous amount of respect for Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC). Well, I have even more respect for him after he not only properly diagnosed the cause for the last two GOP defeats, but he also named names:
The conservative senator, speaking [...]
President Bush Warns Against “Too Much” Government Interference In Markets
President Bush has finally lost it. I take no pleasure in stating this, but it’s true. Take a look at what he said yesterday regarding government interference in economic markets:
