At least with Catalino and Varvel, we can trace back their ridiculous cartoons to some Fox News talking point. Rall’s stuff simply emerges from his own skewed version of reality.
Obama didn;t exactly do nothing, but he didn’t move forcefully enough on all the things that would have made a difference.
the Govt needs to spend money right now to keep money flowing through the economy. It;s just that after the GOP raided the budget surplus, and crashed the economy, they are suddenly ‘worried’ about deficits. Tey didn;t worry about them as they BALLOONED under Reagan and the Bushes, but when a Dem needs to spend money, suddenly deficits matter. The GOP just wants to see the economy crash and they don’t what happens after that,
I check Politifact.com daily, and they’ve flagged 100+ broken promises on Obama’s part; many of them relate to the economy and the bailout, and a lot of those were broken by Obama himself through his own actions rather than through any sort of obstruction from other individuals.
And since Nancy Pelosi was only speaker for two years, and the Dems only had 60 votes in the Senate for TWO MONTHS, how does that equate to total control from 2007 to 2010? More Faux (not) news propaganda!
No, I gave the Responsibility to Bush, after YOU blamed Obama for the failure of the stimulus package.Of course, “Conservatives” seem to have come to the conclusion that ‘Personal Responsibility’ is the same as ‘Socialized Medicine’.

Is that a turkey on the President’s carpet, masquerading as an eagle? If so, I think it’s a wonderful metaphor for the Oval Office’s current occupant.
