Another broken promise.
Barack Obama attacked the oil industry and promised 5 million new energy jobs in his campaign gas ad.

Now, 24 months into his term, gas prices are up 55%.
Government-funded solar companies are moving to China.

(Heritage)

And 4.4 million people lost their jobs in 2009. That’s the most job losses in a year since 1940.

  10. Can somebody explain to me why Obama loaned 1 Billion dollars to Brazil for off shore oil drilling, while banning drilling in our country. This is why you don’t elect community organizers to the White House. They know not what they are doing, or if they do they need to be in jail.

  11. my pal, mish, has an excellent article on this:

    Fantasy Models

    Baum asks “Why do policy makers persist in perpetrating this fantasy, in asserting something that can’t be proven?”

  12. Correction:

    Chairman O IS the embodiment “great depression”!

  13. Folks,

    I am not sure if you understand how science extrapolates to finance, but the NEwtonian principle of inertia applies to economic constructs. That is, it takes TIME for a system to become corrected, and MR. Obama inherited an economic system that represents an almost irresistable force. He needs more months to fashion a viable counterforce. I believe you amateur economists doth protest too much.

    He would have been wrong to insinuate in speeches that he could undo the terrible “done”–the refuse/detritus wrought of Mr. Bush; however, he still needs and deserves patience, inasmuch as it took several efforts before Heracles could clean the STygian foulness in the Greek mythology that is now represented by Mr. Bush’s seemingly irremediable, sulfur-soaked policies.

    In short, I respectfully disagree.

    hey, no one is stopping you, go ahead and post a filled in chart..

    ==

  15. So, let’s stop talking about an insane nut in Arizona and whether Obama’s latest speech was the new “Gettysburg Address”.

    “Remember back when Rome was burning? Yeah, I remember back then when Obama made a speech in Arizona. It was awesome.” Please…

    Laser focus. Jobs. Economy. Prosperity.

  16. Methinks Malaka doth be full of kaka “folks”

  17. Obama,Green energy and electric cars,will sink this country.

  18. According to the Left, it doesn’t matter if you actually get results, so long as you said it well.

    Obama’s AZ speech was complete bullsh*t and he didn’t mean a word of it, but because he said it well, the MSM hailed it as “Presidential” and “one of his greatest moments”.

  19. Pete, both these charts cover the same 24-month period of time for each president.

    When gas when up drastically the second haf of “Oil Man Bush’s” second term, it was arguably because Obama’s friends in OPEC wanted Obama to become president, and so they inflated the price of oil for over a year, to give Obama and the Dems an issue on which to run.

    You’ll see a comparable rise soon, though. Don’t you worry your empty little head. We’ll see the price go up over $4, for sure, within a year or so.

    Why am I even responding to you?

  20. I can hear the fat lady singing!
