Title: "Unexpectedly" - a compilation

Someone has taken the time to come up with a (partial) compilation of all the various iterations of "unexpected" bad economic news. Just imagine for a moment that we had any other President, even a different Democrat, and ask yourself if such blatant media protection would be happening.

Quote
The Main Stream Media seems to be constantly shocked at how poorly the American economy is doing under ObamaNomics.  Whenever poor business, house, or job news comes out, they are quick to throw on the word "unexpectedly," pretending that the economy is actually doing great, but this one time it hiccuped.  But the problem is, the poor economic news is quite expected because of President Obama's incompetence.

 So, I decided to take some time and compile some of the "unexpectedlies" from the start of the year until today.  But before I begin, just remember what Albert Einstein once said (which is normally attributed to Benjamin Franklin): "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

 So, without further ado: http://punditpress.blogspot.com/2011/06/unexpectedly-compilation.html (http://punditpress.blogspot.com/2011/06/unexpectedly-compilation.html)

That's a helluva list - and it looks to all be from 2011. This has been going on since the immaculation.

Compare this treatment to the first 6 Bush years, before Pelosi/Reid. We weathered the storm of 9/11, when our financial sector was dealt a devastating blow, and the mask was ripped off the face of as evil, insidious enemy. We were engaged in 2 wars, and yet our budget deficit was under $500 billion. Economic growth was steady and brisk (even if unrealistically bolstered at the time by the government-caused housing bubble). Unemployment was at or under 5%. And the Democrats and their media sycophants demagogued the economy as if it was constantly swirling the toilet bowl.

They demagogued their way into control of government, and now we are seeing the result of what happens when the Left gets its way. It's killing them, but they desperately want to continue with their destructive agenda, so they continue trying to cover it up by feigning surprise at the results of their policies that are intended to do exactly what they are doing.

If Ben hasn't a clue why the economy is doing what it's doing why does he have this job?? Or he's plum run out of lies to tell. And why the hell did he release oil out of the reserve??If he has announced that we were stepping up drilling he might have accomplished something. As it is oil futures are up already for tomorrow,
