Obama’s investments have had an 83% success rate. Romney, while at Bain Capital, was about 60% successful. Yeah, the government sucks at investing in businesses.

People – listen up! Government DOES NOT INVEST, NOR CREATE JOBS. It spends our money, our tax money! Private parties create jobs, create wealth and make this country great. If we keep allowing the Dems to tax us into oblivion, we are doomed as the leader of the world, free or not and we will NOT be free!

Well, it looks like at least one person on the panel has his dream “job”. Need I point out which? Thought not. And, yes, chopping heads is classified as a “job”.

The Republicans want to see investment too! It’s just that they only want to see it in the military. Didn’t Romney want to increase the DoD’s budget to 4% of the GDP?
The military is a great jobs program… if you want your primary export to be death and your primary import to be hate.

“Obama’s investments have had an 83% success rate.”
You of course have some substantiation to back up such a generous statement. Would you post it please?

“Everyone knows facts are liberally biased.”
No, facts are “hard evidence,” based on objective data that is not partisan rhetoric. I would very much like to see the data for such a claim…
