Well folks, sure looks like things are improving each and every month. Between now and next summer I am predicting jobs will be back as well.
This news must be starting to worry Republicans, as they were praying for the economy to go under and jobs to be lost --- at least till November 2010's election is over.
No coonsey, we were/are not praying for the economy to go under or jobs to be lost. Nice try.

Actually, you and many of your fellow travelers of the lunatic right are doing just that. You lack both the honesty to admit it and the sense to understand that harming everyone hurts you too.

Your misconceptions are really unfortunate. I'm not sure what basis you have to think that I am doing such things, but it's off-base. You just like to hurl insults without any basis for them.
Have a nice day.

You may not being PRAYING but I'm betting the bulk of you are crossing your fingers that the nation stays the way it was this summer. How else would you stand a chance of winning back any seats in the House/Senate?

In fact, if you listen to Dick Cheney and people that support him, they were hoping we'd get attacked again....just in time for the election cycle to begin.

Without job creation, the stimulus didn't serve it's intended purpose. And since the republicans did their very best to cut as much as they could from the bill, they should be immensely happy. We are on our way to were Argentina already is. Just look at their economy today then compare it where they were 20 years ago. What you'll see the a economic wasteland and that's were the US is heading if the republicans have any say.
