Double dip Recession?
And this was on MSNBC of all places. How dare them degrade the POTUS like this!
WASHINGTON — They're a minority, but a vocal one, and they're hovering like storm clouds over a brittle recovery. They're the Double Dippers — the politicians, economists and analysts who foresee back-to-back recessions. Their warnings could become self-fulfilling prophecies if they frighten enough people into holding tightly onto their wallets. With consumer spending accounting for two-thirds of economic activity, anything that further rattles consumers can undercut recovery hopes. Recent data has shown that, after growing moderately for most of the past year, the U.S. economy appears to be slowing. This was underscored by Friday's government report that U.S. economic growth slowed to 2.4 percent from April to May, down from a revised 3.7 percent in the previous quarter. Such statistics are providing more ammunition to the double dippers. <snipped> http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38507261/ns/politics |

It was bound to happen Felix. Obama not going Left fast (or far) enough for the left-leaning media. Pretty soon we may see "really" strange bedfellows, MSNBC and Fox actually agreeing with each other!

Re: Double dip Recession?
Well, Fox never agree with him regardless of what he tries to do to appease their whacky base. I think he should stop trying the whole bipartisan thing and just go as left as he wants. Screw 'em. As I said before, they don't wanna play so, they lose.

Like you said, "they don't wanna play so, they lose". Which is what happened with the bill for first responders. The Dems did not want to play, and lost, and they have majority rule! Bam! |

Re: Double dip Recession?

Re: Double dip Recession?
Don't see it from where I am. My work is hiring and they want us to work 60 hrs/wk. Some of our work is even being farmed out. Recessions usually hit us hard, this last one almost half of the employees were laid off. They are all back (except the dead wood) and then some. There is a 300' long extension being added to the machine shop and a new 3 million dollar gantry milling machine being built to go in it.
