Obama can't lead, refuses to follow, if only he would get out of the way! “I’m not asking for the moon. I’m asking for policies that help folks get ahead. … Republicans running Congress are opposed to them.” Hussein Obama You didn't ask for the moon, but here ya go! >>>MOD EDIT Rule 9 Violation Removed<<< President Obama used Labor Day to tout the country’s economic gains under his leadership and make an election-year case that higher wages and other progress for workers can only be achieved through a Democrat-controlled Congress. “American workers and the American economy are better off since I took office,” Obama told a crowd filled with union supporters at the annual Laborfest event in Milwaukee. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...ains-under-his-leadership-is-mum-on-pressing/

Home Politics National 5 things to know about Obama's Labor Day visit to Wisconsin Article by: M.L. JOHNSON , Associated Press Updated: September 1, 2014 - 1:10 AM MILWAUKEE — President Barack Obama will speak to union members and others Monday in Milwaukee. Here are five things to know about his visit: 1. IT'S A PARTY: The president is speaking at about 2 p.m. at LaborFest, a festival complete with musical acts, a classic car show, bingo and lots of fried food. The festival runs from noon to 5 p.m. and is preceded by an 11 a.m. parade in downtown Milwaukee. LaborFest is held on 75-acre festival grounds along the shore of Lake Michigan. 2. REWIND AND REPEAT: Monday marks Obama's second appearance at LaborFest. He spoke there in 2010, months before Republican Gov. Scott Walker set off fervent protests with his proposal to eliminate most public employees' union rights. Anger over Walker's signature legislation lingers in heavily Democratic Milwaukee. 3. THE PRESIDENT'S POPULARITY HAS WANED: Obama won Wisconsin in 2008 and 2012, but his popularity is declining. A Marquette Law School poll released Wednesday put his approval rating at 49 percent statewide. An earlier law school poll found the president's approval rating was much higher in Milwaukee than statewide — 71 percent to 47 percent in July 2013. 4. UNION MEMBERSHIP IS FALLING TOO: About 15 percent of private and public sector workers in Wisconsin were represented by unions during Obama's last visit in 2010, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In 2013, union membership was about 13 percent as Walker's union law took effect and public employees dropped out. The national average is 12.4 percent. 5. WALKER WILL GREET HIM, BURKE WON'T SHARE STAGE: The governor changed plans with his family so he could greet Obama at General Mitchell International Airport. The two also met there in January, discussing a propane shortage before Obama left to give a speech in Waukesha and Walker returned to Madison. Walker's Democratic challenger Mary Burke is meeting privately with Obama, but won't share the stage.
Obamanomics has resulted in 6 years of less than 2% mean GDP growth rate............Loser!. After the Jimmy Carter Depression Reagan's GDP growth rate was over 4%.
Economic gains, which one? The economic gains the federal government made by stealing my money ...or the economic gains the gibs-me-dat welfare population made when liberals gave it to them.
He's probably just figuring if an idiot like him can get elected president everyone else must be CEO's by now.
Raising campaign funds. Looking at the chart in post 5 we're due for another drop on the roller coaster.
