Steve,

I accept the title - but wonder why it is some conservatives must label people as this is just us and them

Frankly, I find it interesting that you are attempting to admonish me for assigning a label to you and yet you place a label upon yourself in the previous sentence of your post. To wit:

Well I'm one of those Ron Paul conservatives so I don't march with your army.

Moving on...

You state:
No serious economist places the job loss of today on Obama That is just wacko thinking.

I don't think you can ever lay a bad economy at the doorstep of ANY administration. I also think it is folly to credit a good economy to an administration as well. The business cycle, which includes unemployment, exists outside the scope of ANY administration. In fact, it is ALWAYS better to let the market correct itself instead of throwing taxpayers money down a black hole in the name of stimulus.

So what is the point of attempting to assign blame? As far as I am concerned it is nothing more than an attempt to recruit voters and "alleged" independent thinkers like you. Apparently you have bought in to this argument, I choose otherwise.

As to this:
If republicans become honest and accept this mess as their own

Apparently you have somehow missed that fact that in 2006 the House and Senate flipped from Republican to Democrat majorities. Ultimately this is my beef with you. I think BOTH parties are responsible for this. Yet you have somehow managed to only assign blame to Republicans. This is disingenuous at best and is very telling to me with respect to your "alleged" Ron Paul conservative moniker. I am not buying it...

Sell crazy back elsewhere. Perhaps here: Message 25559404
