A quote from Barack.

" "The market will take care of everything," they tell us. If we just cut more regulations and cut more taxes – especially for the wealthy – our economy will grow stronger."

" But here's the problem: It doesn't work. It has never worked."

So Barack says that cutting government regulation has never worked. It has never grown the economy.

Well Barack, you are either totally ignorant of America's economic history in the last fifty years or you are a bald-faced liar.
Either way you are unqualified for a second term in office.

Jimmy Carter deregulated the airlines in 1979 and it led to a gigantic growth in the airline industry.
The SEC deregulated brokerage commissions in the forty years ago and you saw the explosive growth of companies like E-trade, TD Waterhouse, Charles Schwab, Scott trade etc.
The FCC deregulated the cable business forty years ago and this led to the massive growth of cable TV.

These are just three examples that make a bald-faced lie out of the statements of a man who is so ignorant of the truth and history that it is an embarrassment to the entire nation that he is the President of the United States.

"Jimmy Carter deregulated the airlines in 1979 and it led to a gigantic growth in the airline industry. "

Er...what? Airlines took a major hit after deregulation. In 1978 they had made profits of 1.4 billion. In 1980 they lost $222 million. In 1981 they posted $421 million in losses. By the early 90s several big airlines had gone under, and the industry was heavily concentrated in the hands of three companies. The debt of US airlines is astronomical. Fares have also not decreased.

The early & late 80s were horrendous for the airlines, as have been the 2000s generally. The period of growth was in the 90s. Hardly a smashing success story for deregulation.

If you think cable deregulation has been wonderful, then you must enjoying paying exorbitant prices to crappy monopolies.

I read Obama's entire Osawatomie speech and he did not say "green jobs" one time.
I guess not even Obama can't tell the American people any longer that government funding of green jobs will end the recession.

Wow! Obama isn't a liar about green jobs anymore.

Solyndra sure changed Barack's mind.

Deregulation of cable and airlines has led to awful cable companies and worse airline companies. Cable has effectively established local monopolies in every local market in the country, leading to crappy service, high prices, and terrible selection. And if you think airlines have been a rousing success since deregulation, you clearly haven't set foot in an airport since the Johnson administration.

Tettleton, of course, flies everywhere to avoid traveling on socialist built and maintained roads and highways.

Obama thinks Americans are total idiots.
They cant' read or understand a mortgage agreement apparently.
"mortgage lenders that tricked families into buying homes they couldn’t afford,"
They can't shop around for health insurance (in a heavy regulated health insurance market that limits competition through government regulation lobbied for by the insurance industry, but let us forget about that truth because it gets in the way of Obama's bald-faced lies)
“insurance companies that jacked up people’s premiums with impunity,”
Another bald-faced Obama lie, that only a few Americans are greedy when anyone with common sense recognizes the greed in everyone they know.
“the breathtaking greed of a few,”
(You know the greed that possesses you to buy a great looking home you can't afford)

Nothing like ignoring individual actions as the root cause of individual problems, but when you are telling bald-faced likes like Barack is then the truth gets in the way.

Obama's default response for all issues is "government."
We need to create jobs.
Obama has government borrow hundreds of billions of dollars and then directs government bureaucrats to invest the money, and those bureaucrats invest in dead-end, tax revenue destroying green energy companies like Solyndra.
Obama says that health care is a "right" and of course the only answer is a total government takeover of the entire health care industry with a select group of bureaucrats in charge of the health care of 313 million Americans.
General Motors declares bankruptcy and Obama's solution, have the government buy GM with borrowed money.

So why is the real unemployment rate of 15% with millions of Americans not even looking for work anymore if "government" is the answer.
So why is General Motors still in as much trouble as it was in 2008 with infallible government ownership?
So why did health insurance premiums skyrocket with HHS writing thousands of waivers for unions and democratic cronies with government taking over health care.

Simply refer to the disaster of the Soviet Union and Europe's current bankruptcy to see what happens with the "government" in charge, and the "government" is all Obama knows.
