‘The Worst Economic Recovery America Has Ever Had’: New Ad Hammers Away at President’s Econ Record

Jul. 31, 2012 4:00pm Becket Adams

The Karl Rove-founded Crossroads GPS, a 501c4 non-profit group, on Monday released a new $25 million television ad that will play in eight swing states.

“Good evening, This is the worst economic recovery America has ever had,” says CBS Evening News’ Scott Pelley at the beginning of the video.

The ad’s über-somber narration continues:

41 straight months of unemployment over 8 percent. Almost four million fewer jobs than President Obama predicted. 23 million Americans without full-time work. The results of President Obama’s failed stimulus policies.

The video concludes with Pelley again saying that this is the “worst economic recovery America has ever had.”

The ad is playing in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Ohio, and Virginia.

  Libya was an impeachable offense. Even dimwit Biden himself said it was. But this president will never get impeached, even if he murders someone. You will never get a president in a court room. NEVER!

  FT.com = Financial Times 12/8/08. Obama is a globalist. A taste of the ideas doing the rounds in Obama circles is offered by a recent report from: the Managing Global Insecurity Project, whose small US advisory group includes John Podesta, Strobe Talbot and Susan Rice. The report argues for the creation of a UN high commissioner for counter-terrorist activity, a legally binding climate change agreement negotiated under the auspices of the UN and the creation of a 50,000 strong UN peacekeeping force. Once countries have pledged troops to this reserve army, the UN will have first call upon them. Also a Global Poverty Act where the US sends tax money around the world.
  Then there’s this: Norman Thomas-U.S Socialist Presidental Candidate 1928-1948 ” The American people will Never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of “liberalism” they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened!”

  As for manufacturing, there are many jobs that go unfilled in manufacturing. Taxpayers are subsidizing political science majors, women’s studies majors, black studies majors, art history majors, etc. They graduate and get jobs at Starbucks (if any job at all) — and companies need machine operators but can’t find anyone. Obama’s education “investment” expertise is as spot on as his energy “investment” skills.

  It’s called a bromance. Winston Smith has had a man crush on Ron Paul for quite a long time; in fact, Smith is so smitten by Paul that has closed his mind off to anything that does not directly relate to Ron Paul – but only the good stuff. Before Smith’s wife left him, she was forced into uncomfortable role-playing as Smith would have her dress like Ron Paul. Love making was done to Ron Paul speeches off of YouTube until Smith’s wife just couldn’t take it anymore gave Smith an ultimatum: Me or Ron Paul – which will it be? This was 4 years ago and Smith’s relationship with Paul has never been stronger – exchanging love letters with Ron Paul, praying to Ron Paul, sacrificing animals to Ron Paul, pillow talk with Paul about destroying the Federal Reserve, etc. Indeed, Winston Smith is the “Eva Braun” to Ron Paul’s “Adolph Hitler”.

Since no one mentioned it. Read the Bible and you will discover why we have the government and the problems we have in this country. Many of the prophetic messages of ancient times could well be applied to America today. Stop putting your faith in men and put it in God and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He will not fail you, do not let fear overcome you, give praise to God for it is his will, and if you live in Christ and He in you, you will never die.

  If you love Him (Jesus) keep his commandments. Stop worrying about money and all the things Satan has devised to distract you from the true meaning of life. It is not a secret and you don’t have to be a Biblical Scholar to understand it. All you have to do is pray and ask for understanding. Accept the free gift of salvation and you will no longer wish for anything else. Sure we all have to live in this world but many people make it more difficult on themselves because of material wants. A loving family and the love of Christ will see you through more than you thought you could endure.

  I agree that reading the bible does reveal why we have the problems we have in this country. Fewer people searching for answer in a bronze age work of fiction and more thinking for themselves would be the start of progress.
  
  So having having “Him” in you means you will never die but having “him” in you is a biblical sin?

The president will argue Republicans blocked everything and he couldn’t stimulate enough to make the economy come back faster and people will fall for it because Romney is offering no alternative. it seems now all we can do is keep printing money to make up for the mass amounts of money being lost through stupid practices in this current fake capitalist system. its sad that the opposition is now admitting its a recovery just not a good recovery which is basically saying the president accomplished something. wow it seems there trying to lose.

  Of course you think the economy is doing well you obviously know nothing about the subject. The markets are seemingly up because the Fed has continued pumping money into the market at a 0.1 interest rate! That right a 0.1 interest rate! Not to mention we are monetising our own debt. This system cannot last, soon interest rates will be force back up by the market and thats when even the most economic illiterate (Romney/Obama voters) will understand how bad things have really gotten.

  @kc1 – I never said the economy omy was better, I said I was doing better. There is opportunity in bad news. Keep a smile,etc. Find laughs where you can…..here for instance. And most of all, don’t try to be smartest guy in room, just be smart enough to act. Leave being smartest to the guy in corner complaining about the fed and interest rates.
  
  Oh and look outside your back yard for opportunity. I was advised to invest in a small Canadian company producing oil in Nigeria. Mart resources, look it up. I bought all through 2009.

For president we have two choices .. Romney or obama. Voting for Ron Paul will do nothing, But for mayors, govenors, state and federal senators and congressmen we have a lot of choices. We need to re-elect people like Allen West, and other Tea Party people. That is where the control will come. If the Paulanistas want to make a change they need to vote in the right people in congress.

If Romney does not do what he is promising, he will be one termer too.

The ad gives disastrous Oblamer credit for a recovery which is false. There hasn’t been any recovery at all, just decimation of the middle class. The poor have become the middle class. The Ad should say that this is the worst takeover of government in our lifetime. The country is teetering on the edge of collapse, because of the Disastrous Natural Disaster Obama… proof that the disease of liberalism is the wrong approach to recovery. There has been no recovery, and the chimps in DC have done nothing to make it better, because of #1 Presidnet Oblamer #2 Harry Reid, and #3 Nancy Pelosi

Until Romney finds his stones and we see adds that highlight Marxism, shyster-lawyering or community-organizing, nobody really cares, and the adds will have little effect on the intellectually challenged populace.

Obama is evil and you have to show the people that can’t think independently, why he is evil. You have to hammer it home hour by hour, day by day, week by week and month by month until November.

Pres Obama’s tax priorities are focused on reversing thoes policies on growing the pie for the benefit of all. He intends to allow the Bush tax cuts to expire thereby pushing the highest tax rates back up . He will cause the poor to become poorer right along with the rich becoming poorer.
Policies that focus on a more even distribution of income will bring with it lower income for all.
Pres Obama should already have discovered that when you put ” tax fairness ” ahead of economic growth, you produce niether.

  Ok, Romney’s budget plan calls for 500 billion in cuts per year and believes he can balance the budget in 10. So we are spending between 1 to 1.6 trillion more than we taken in per year. If we go low ball on the number and just say we run 500 billion dollar deficits that leaves us in 10 years at 21+ trillion dollars in debt. Keep in mind that is with artificially low interests rates. So basically with the best possible situation we are 21 trillion in debt, still in Afghanistan, and this number also isnt including wars being expanded into Syria, Iran, and no other conflicts.
  
  Under perfect conditions maybe we survive that. Under realistic conditions interest rates have to go up. Romney has already basically said he is going to increase the military and stop Iran from making carpets, riding camels, building energy plants for the people, or building this bomb we heard they had 10 years ago with the axis of evil speeches.
  
  The more debt we have the more pressure there is to raise interest rates to keep the bonds selling (Greece and Spain). But Spain and Greece will look like the best economic zones in the world compared to us if the dollar is unpinned from oil. There is a lot of talk about it already and many countries like Russia, China, India, Pakistan, Iran, and a few others are already trading oil in their own currencies to each other. If the dollar is unpinned from oil, it will take a wheel barrel of cash to buy a loaf of bread.

  “Bankrupt” will be the least of our problems if 0bama gets another term.

  I am not sure you understand what happens when we go bankrupt then. Maybe that is your problem QP. You dont understand what happens to us.
  
  Bankruptcy in the United States means our military is heavily taken down. With laws that have already been signed and or supported by Obama and Romney martial law would be instituted. Guns would be taken, food would be rationed, riots, rapes, and murders would be rampant. We would eventually be forced into a global government system because our currency would be worthless. This would be the Constitution lit on fire and our rights would be null and void. Since our life styles are much greater than the average world wide citizen, they will not be brought up to our standard, we will be brought down to theirs.
  
  You can keep your head in the sand, but its not like I am the only one saying this. Glenn Beck has been saying these same things for years.
  
  As always QP you show your lack of understand of basic economics and a total lack of common sense. You can call me names all you like, but you cannot dispute what I and many other Ron Paul supporters post here that is why you revert to name calling like a child.

  QPWILLY, Nah man, I’m trying desperately hard to get my lefty friends to vote for a 3rd party too. Liberal / conservative makes no difference to me as long as they obey the Constitution. My pitch is the same to them is it is to you all. I’d vote for an originalist Dem over a progressive Rep any day of the week. I haven’t tried to hide that I’m socially liberal, fiscally conservative using today’s definitions. I’ve only argued that social conservatives are progressive.
