Not really surprised here. The metric everyone was focused on was the unemployment rate vs. the quality of the new jobs vs. old.

So Dawg, please give us your honest assessment of the Obama Presidency to date. How good of a job has he done? What has he done that in 20 years will be considered successes? What has he done that will be considered failures? How will his presidency go down in the history books?

Ignore him.

Densedawg has become a full-time Troll. His hatred of me takes up all his efforts.

Anyway, even if he cared, he's incapable of understanding the dynamics of business investment.

Those record-setting corporate profits are being realized primarily in the financial services sector. It's by design.

Thank you Bush/Obama/Bernanke/Yellen.

Wait. Obama's on vacation? What happened to saying in 2008 he wouldn't take vacations or leisure time. :roll:

"FLASHBACK: Obama Promises No Vacations For Himself As President "

Weasel Zippers has revived an old video of Barack Obama promising not to take vacations if he were elected president.

The video features then-Sen. Obama discussing his book “The Audacity Of Hope” with New York Times columnist Bob Herbert in 2008.

The future president was talking about how those running for president need to be prepared to “give their life to it.”

The bargain that any president strikes with is, you give me this office and in turn my, fears, doubts, insecurities, foibles, need for sleep, family life, vacations, leisure is gone,” Obama said. “I am giving myself to you.”

Obama went on to say that “the American people should have no patience for what’s going on in your head because you’ve got a job to do” and that people should only run for president if they’re willing to make that sacrifice.

When asked by the host if he could imagine himself making that kind of commitment, he said, “Sure.”

Weasel Zippers used the quote to criticize Obama, saying he “then proceeded to hit the golf course 186 times (and counting).”

The president has also been criticized for taking a vacation to Martha’s Vineyard while international crises are occurring.

I hate to kind of attack a spin that makes Obama look bad but ignore stuff about "wages" and just look at "income."

Don't get me wrong. I'd guess median income is down since 2008 as well. But this thing of citing "wages" is, to me, a trick used to make things look worse than they are.

Look at income, not "wages."

What will be considered successes by whom?

I think it will be a middle-of-the-pack Presidency, not the success Clinton was, not the miserable failure Dubya was. The Dark Side left powers for him that he should have refused to use but didn't. He failed in that we still have the Patriot Act and still torture people at Gitmo and in general he has done little to restore the prestige and moral authority we used to have before his dipshit predecessor took office, other than not be that embarrassing buffoon, and in fact has made it worse in some ways with shit like drones assassinating civilians. I think that those who call him a sell-out and a center-right corporatist are correct.

Ignore him.

Densedawg has become a full-time Troll. His hatred of me takes up all his efforts.

Anyway, even if he cared, he's incapable of understanding the dynamics of business investment.

Kind of like ignoring hyper-inflation in certain sectors like housing, health insurance, medical costs, and college tuition, eh?

Not disputing the hyper-inflation (been pointing that out for 35 years). The economic model used by the mayors does not adjust for inflation: The drop is a raw calc.

Was talking with someone about this today. They simply asserted this is akin to the owner taking the ball and leaving the game.

A simpleton's explanation for the simpleton.

Not to mention food and energy, which are not included in the CPI, yet comprise a very large portion of the average middle-class household budget.
