I'm reading the Bourne Identity...it's actually really mediocre as (frank). Nobody has a personality and nobody does anything. 55 pages left and I can't wait to throw it in the bin since I got it for 10 cents at a book drive.

Awful.

I'm looking for a new read. Undermajordomo Minor was good, but a little hipster-esque.

Where do you get your info from

Alright, I'll bite.

During Obama’s first term, the number of Americans on food stamps increased by an average of about 11,000 per day.

At the beginning of the Obama era, 32 million Americans were on food stamps. Today, more than 47 million Americans are on food stamps.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 146 million Americans are either “poor” or “low income” at this point.

During the first four years of Obama, the number of Americans “not in the labor force” soared by an astounding 8,332,000. That far exceeds any previous four year total.

The Obama years have been absolutely devastating for small businesses in America. According to economist Tim Kane, the following is how the number of startup jobs per 1000 Americans breaks down by presidential administration…

Bush Sr.: 11.3

Clinton: 11.2

Bush Jr.: 10.8

Obama: 7.8

Median household income in America has fallen for four consecutive years. Overall, it has declined by over $4000 during that time span.

The United States has fallen in the global economic competitiveness rankings compiled by the World Economic Forum for four years in a row.

Under Barack Obama, the United States has lost more than 300,000 education jobs.

Electricity bills in the United States have risen faster than the overall rate of inflation for five years in a row.

Health insurance costs have risen by 29 percent since Barack Obama became president.

The U.S. government has run a budget deficit of well over a trillion dollars every single year under Barack Obama.

When Barack Obama was first elected, the U.S. debt to GDP ratio was under 70 percent. Today, it is up to 103 percent.

During Obama’s first term, the federal government accumulated more debt than it did under the first 42 U.S presidents combined.

Carried out military interventionism in Libya without Congressional approval

Gave a no-bid contract to Halliburton – just like Bush did

Has an administration full of lobbyists, after promising he wouldn’t have any

Allowed abuse of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay to become even worse than it was under Bush

Supported the $700 billion TARP corporate-welfare bailout just like Bush

Gave tax dollars to AIG executives, then pretended to be outraged about it

Supported Bush’s unconstitutional Patriot Act

Agrees with Bush’s support of unconstitutional, indefinite detention of U.S. citizens without filing any charges

Avoided prosecution of Wall. St criminals

Just like Bush, Obama has done an excellent job of helping his handlers destroy his country. Except he's doing it a much more accelerated pace than Bush. Neither is better than the other. Both are equally (frank)ed.

Arguing which one is better is about the most pointless thing you can do.

Whether he copied and pasted the rhetoric, or is trying to be a funny guy, or if he believed every word of what he typed, doesn't really matter. It was carried to far and hopefully he refrains from posting the rhetoric when he returns.

Good chance that their 7th rounder this year will be better than Mathews.

Oh, don't worry, my homoerotic corporate logo friend, I'm with you here.

My comment was simply one more subtle jab at our tinfoil-hatted friend.

Let me be clear: I totally respect and support the refs here.

And I say that because I'm guessing Jillian wants me banned.

So...have a great long weekend, my Leafy friends!
