Why can't you Rs see any farther than the nose in front of your face?

Simple, the R's have been mad at Obama as he has outsmarted them every step of the way. Did you see Boehner choking with anger and getting redder than red when he was warning Obama after Obama signed his executive order?

The economy is good, gas prices are down, the merchants are expecting a "Clintonesque Christmas" buying season. So the Republicans are real really real mad.

And what is more, he had all his sabre rattling Defense Secretaries leave. These secretaries know that they and the Pentagon top brass are not needed if this country is not in a war.

And what difference did that make? Controlled receivership with liquidity guarantees would have calmed the entire market down. Instead, our government stole from everyone to recapitalize criminal enterprise banks. You are so clueless as to the realities that it is truly astonishing. They sold you on the idea that the only path to stability was to allow the raping and looting of the 99% to keep the criminals solvent. All that has done is created a system so fragile, we are still undergoing massive stimulus 5 years later.

Keynesianism has failed completely and absolutely. 5 years of stimulus and everyone is still terrified the system will crash. That is the very definition of failure. Democrats' economic policies are the height of hubris and idiocy.
