Obama administration is an abject failure?

For all the "traders" that post in the P&R forums; the Dry Ships Index has been used to gauge the world economy for centuries. The American economy has to lead the rest of the world out of depression/recession and the American consumers have to lead the American Economy out of depression/recession. So do some due diligence and look at the last five years, the Obama years, of the Dry Ships Index and tell me that Obama's little song and dance time in office has been good for the world.

After five years nobody is buying the "hate Bush/blame Bush" bullshit routine. That index closes the loop around all the bullshit. The world is getting poorer and poorer because the tax and spend crowd is riding the American economy real hard nowadays.

We have our share of crazy liberals here in Texas. Fortunately, most of them, like brokenarrow, are too stupid to know how to vote.
Voted Obama this last time. It didn't make a difference but it did negate your clown vote. I can't believe you guys actually ran Romney and then expected the majority to vote for that clown, well except for you a clown for a clown. You meeting me and lucrum to see who really is the stupid one ??? it won't cost a big swing dick like you much to find out.
Your vote didn't matter. It probably went into the circular file in Lubbock. All the Texas electoral votes went to Romney. (Yeah, I know that didn't matter.....)
Instead we have a fool who voted for the greater fool in that damn idiot Obama.
I don't think I'll waste my time to find out what I already know. That I and Lucrum are about 3 times smarter than you are. This is obvious to anyone who reads our posts.
So, if you are going to take a test with Lucrum that should be sufficient to shame your ignorant ass out of here.
Now if either of you are going to be in Dallas I'm up for meeting for a drink or two.
the economy was going into a post clinton recession. It definitely did have weak demand... and the state revenues were collapsing dramatically in CA.
note...
-- at one point you had a post about Obama have to come in an fix the lowered revenue due to tax cuts. I no longer see that post.
So you did blame tax cuts for lower revenue. the post is just no longer there.
Legit point, but my suggestion is to simply stop paying any attention to what's going on 'down on the farm.' Hop the fence.
Yes, the federal gov't and more than several state gov'ts wield power on a scale insurmountable by one person, and they can bring entire industries to a crawl (e.g. Appalachian coal production since Barry took office), but they do not lead the way into the future - the private sector does (albeit some of the most powerful ones among them being GE, Halliburton, Bechtel, JP Morgan, Goldman, etc etc). Gov't makes regulations, the private sector finds a way around them, time and time again.
Reform is not going to happen, complaining about them doesn't change anything, so why bother. Start considering the trajectories taken by George Soros, Jim Rogers, and others - Soros did more to give Britain a hard smack of reality than any 'grassroots' social movement that had occurred in the UK for decades before his epic short of their currency in the early 90s...somewhat the same in the more recent case of Australia. I'm not stating anything to his political leanings, perceived or real - pales in comparison to his 'vote' in the economic realms.
Is it pie in the sky to propose achieving something on a Soros scale? Very much so; it's a better direction to look in, however, than moaning about these pussy bureaucrats.
