Mark Rubio teleprompter FAIL

All of them … right-wing!

The American Enterprise Institute is a conservative thinktank. The Washington Times is another "conservative" publication. And the Investor's Business Daily article, from Real Clear Markets, is three months' old.

Do you have evidence?

Why does it matter if it's right wing or left wing? The link you posted was to Think Progress, which is left wing, and I showed what it claimed is wrong.

And the onus of evidence is on those claiming the stimulus bill was a success. Frankly, if it were really a success it would be easy to show.

Before ObamaCo unleashed its Propaganda For Dummies with the unsupported claim the stimulus was a success, it was clear that with unemployment being significantly higher than a year ago (and even higher than ObamaCo predicted it would be without the stimulus), foreclosure rate significantly higher, and the GDP report explaining its gain resulted from restocking depleted inventories, the stimulus bill has not been a success. But Obama says red is black and ObamaNation chants red is black red is black red is black red is black.



About the GDP:

The U.S. economy expanded at a faster pace in the last quarter of 2009 as businesses slow inventory liquidation but consumer remained on the sidelines.

Gross domestic product increased for the second quarter in a row but for the year shrank at 2.4%, the biggest decline since the drop of 10.9% in 1946.

The economy in the fourth quarter expanded 5.7% from the third quarter and 0.1% from the quarter a year ago. Real GDP increased at 2.2% in the third quarter.

The broadest measure of economic activity increased at a slower pace after deducting changes in inventories. Real final sales of domestic product excluding private inventories increased at an annual rate of 2.2% compared to 1.5% in the third quarter. ...

Evidence, please?

Morning reading turned up an article in this weekend's New York Times that addresses part of what I'm talking about:

Millions of Unemployed Face Years Without Jobs

[...]

Economists fear that the nascent recovery will leave more people behind than in past recessions, failing to create jobs in sufficient numbers to absorb the record-setting ranks of the long-term unemployed.

Call them the new poor: people long accustomed to the comforts of middle-class life who are now relying on public assistance for the first time in their lives — potentially for years to come.

Yet the social safety net is already showing severe strains. Roughly 2.7 million jobless people will lose their unemployment check before the end of April unless Congress approves the Obama administration’s proposal to extend the payments, according to the Labor Department. ...

Every downturn pushes some people out of the middle class before the economy resumes expanding. Most recover. Many prosper. But some economists worry that this time could be different. An unusual constellation of forces — some embedded in the modern-day economy, others unique to this wrenching recession — might make it especially difficult for those out of work to find their way back to their middle-class lives.

Labor experts say the economy needs 100,000 new jobs a month just to absorb entrants to the labor force. With more than 15 million people officially jobless, even a vigorous recovery is likely to leave an enormous number out of work for years.
