Liberal Mayors Slam Obama's Economy

Posted: Aug 12, 2014

It's nice to see that some are waking up from their slumber.

Where's the Slam? - sm

Read and listened. All I see is that there was a U.S. Conference of Mayors (held yearly) to which a report on the economy focusing on cities reported that manufacturing and construction has lost even more than after the 2008 losses.

Magician Obama did not miraculously restore the economy in every and all sectors. Some say none, I say they have very short memory of what was going on in 2008.

Where are the slamming mayors. Pretty big jump I'd say, at least from the info provided.

I guess you didn't read the links within the article. - Is this what they mean by spoonfeeding?

This is a factual, no-spin article. You may spin it any which way your heart desires if that will make you feel better.

I've attached the 40 page report - still no slam-just facts

Analyzing a very damaged economy.
Conclusion is on page 13 for those that don't have the time to read the 40 page report.

I thought perhaps you had a group of liberal mayors slamming President Obama. There may be a group, but I haven't found them here.

IMO, this article is open for interpretation. Also IMO, it echoes the sentiments of a lot of people who are unhappy with this president and his policies, including people who were once his ardent supporters. Of course, the left is going to twist it to fit their agenda. That is no surprise since it is written in a fashion supporting the right. Big deal. Get over it. There is no need to insult anyone just to make yourself feel better. Go ahead and flame me all you want. I have better things to do than to play gotcha games.

Excellent post. To the point and so true - nm

"There is no need to insult anyone just to make yourself feel better."

Maybe give that some thought, lest readers think 'of course, the right is going to twist it to fit their agenda.'

Parroting makes no sense in this case. - LOL

The article was written with a rightwing slant, it doesn't have to be *twisted* to fit their agenda.

Is President Obama ever going to stop blaming the Bush administration for the mess we are in. I don\'t care who caused it, it needs to be fixed. Besides, I thought we had a democratic congress??? I just wish he would stop the blah, blah, blah, Bush, Bush, Bush, and get on with doing his job to the best of his ability. He does not give the American people enough credit. We are smarter than he thinks. November will be a landslide. I actually wish ...

(Reuters) - Twice as many business executives around the world say the global economy will prosper better if incumbent President Barack Obama wins the next election than if his Republican challenger Mitt Romney does, a poll showed. Democrat Obama was chosen by 42.7 percent in the 1,700 respondent poll, compared with 20.5 percent for Romney. The rest said "neither". The result was different among respondents in the United States, where a slim majority thought Romney would be better for ...

The impact of dissolving the ACA will be far reaching everywhere, jobs lost.

This should have been in the original bill but politics and the insurance lobbyists got in the way. Ultimately, single-payer like the rest of the civilized world is my preference. ...

By Stephen C. WebsterSunday, April 11th, 2010 -- 9:03 pm Michele Bachmann must have missed her calling: instead of becoming a fiction writer, she took to politics. Though the two professions do have some overlap, namely incremental story-telling methodologies, Bachmann seems like an individual who'd do much better spinning a web of complete fantasy as opposed to tying rhetorical inventions to anything containing an element of truth. As many fantasy enthusiasts have discovered, facts can ...

White liberal hypocrisy on race is so delightful for conservatives. White conservatives are always on defense against charges of hating President Obama because he is black; suppressing minority voters and indifference to the difficulty minorities have living everyday with the legacy of slavery and a culture filled with stereotypes of black inferiority. This week white conservatives can take a break, step out of the dock and make way for white liberals. I know from personal experience at N ...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy unexpectedly shrank from October through December for the first time since 2009, hurt by the biggest cut in defense spending in 40 years, fewer exports and sluggish growth in company stockpiles. The drop occurred despite stronger consumer spending and business investment. The Commerce Department said Wednesday that the economy contracted at an annual rate of 0.1 percent in the fourth quarter. That was a sharp slowdown from the 3.1 percent growth rate in t ...

Has anyone changed their lifestyle to accommodate the downturn of the economy? Just wondered if it was just me. I don't drive as much.

We knew it wasn't pretty; these are the gruesome details: To view clip http://www.americablog.com/2010/10/p...h-economy.html Notice Bush's list at about 1:05 of the clip — the cuts will help "businesses that create jobs," those at the "low end of the economic ladder," and "small businesses." The first isn't true unless you replace jobs with profits. The second is just a lie. And the third isn't true unless you replace small businesses with billionaires. ("Repl ...

IMF Says Sequester Hurting U.S. Economy, Delaying Recovery As much as half of U.S. economic growth this year has been slashed due to tax increases and indiscriminate federal spending cuts known as sequestration, according to a sobering new forecast by the International Monetary Fund, which urged lawmakers to repeal the cuts. Risks to U.S. growth are "modestly tilted to the downside," the IMF said in its annual report on the nation's economy, as a reduction of $85 billion in government exp ...

As usual, the Henny-Penny-sky-is-falling republicans are insisting that the economy is in the tank because of a weak GDP. Most economists have already recognized that the terrible winter we had is the cause. Last Friday the Dow and S&P 500 closed at new all-time highs and the Nasdaq hit a 14-year closing high. In my neck of the woods, there are billboards on the highways with job advertisements. Just last week there was a job fair where 400 jobs were available. Rea ...

Don't know if any of you have ever watched the "Morning Meeting" with Dylan Rattigan on MSNBC (9:00 a.m. Eastern time), but I would highly suggest watching it. He is very angry about what's going on in the economy (from banks "too big to fail" to the "public option"), but instead of bashing Obama, he refers to the culprit as "the government," since we all know when this really started and how many administrations are really involved. Rattigan used to be on CNBC but is now o ...
