US economy grows at 1.7 pct. pace in 2nd quarter
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. economic growth accelerated in the April-June quarter to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.7 percent, as businesses spent more and the federal government cut less.

The Commerce Department says growth improved from a sluggish 1.1 percent rate in the January-March quarter, which was revised from an initial 1.8 percent rate. The pickup in growth was surprising as most economists predicted a far weaker second quarter.

You out of a job? Is Baldy out of a job?

Considering how conks fucked everything up to begin with, 1.7 is damn good.

Oh, and hey, what the fuck has Conkgress done in the last 5 years? Like they promised to do, they've done nothing and deserve even more of the blame.

Greedy and lazy conks = the root of all evil

Meanwhile, the Democrat held Senate won't even approve Obama's budget.

I know this is your shtick but seriously, it isn't an R or D problem. It's a Congress problem.

Then the R controlled congresss should lead the fight to fix it. They've done squat, even though the message from voters to change has never been louder or clearer.

Yes, her own line. She also consults, works as a stylist and is on the board of a NPO. She is trying to get in with the stylists who work on the 2 TV shows filmed in Charleston.

1) Wife, not girlfriend
2) Her being approached by the City to do a job is not the same as many republican and democrat companies pilfering the government of millions and billions of dollars.

I suggest you don't paint everyone with a broad brush, especially people you don't know.

Despite it being pointed out to you, you keep claiming this. Congress isn't R controlled.

More than their caveman stances on personal freedoms, this current krop of Konks will be remembered, in the long run, as the Great Obstructionist Klan. Obama is black, they don't like that and he's going to pay.

I try to stay out of these things but sometimes I just get offended. I am a long time libertarian, small government, low tax person who has opposed virtually all Democrats and almost all Republicans over the years. But all of a sudden just because the President is black, I am now called a racist. Talk about shaking my head.

For 5 years the donks have held the executive branch and half of the legislative branch. Nice work, donks!

The donks have achieved some of what they promised (ACA), and can't run away from it fast enough now that they have finally read the bill. Stupid, evil donks.

Conks are also evil--parties are evil.
