2012 Presidential Election: Item One, Unemployment
Posted in Uncategorized on May 17th, 2012 by Stanford MatthewsIn an election year like 2012 the following information cannot be overstated. Dramatic changes can be realized in 2012 if we keep our eye on the prize. Too many individuals focus on their own situation, e.g., voting their ‘pocketbook’ or ‘wallet’ while ignoring major economic implications regarding that very concern. So here’s the replay on unemployment in America.
Known formally as the U-6 unemployment rate, this measure includes those formally counted as unemployed, those known to be marginally attached to the workforce, and those who are working part-time because they cannot find full-time work.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the U-6 unemployment rate remained flat in April at 14.5 percent – meaning some 22.8 million people are either unemployed, have stopped looking for work, or need full-time work but can only find part-time employment.
The Democratic Party has controlled the US Senate for some time now. Their reluctance to face the music on the economy is demonstrated by the fact they have not passed a budget in more than three years. Republicans and Democrats have at least twice rejected a budget proposal from the liberal leader President Barack Hussein Obama. These facts underscore the failure of the liberal agenda.
This is the defining political calculation suggesting the need for, if you will, ‘hope and change’. By the time election day rolls around it will have been four years into President Barack Hussein Obama’s first term with no relief in sight.
It is time for a new President in America. Given the political reality we only have one other choice as usual. The thing is, this time as in times past, Mr Romney presents a realistic option for getting our fiscal house in order.
If as in the 2010 midterms voters send more tea party candidates to Congress than the losing liberals we will have a chance to realize a House and Senate majority filled with conservatives to allow a Romney Presidency to reach those solutions that the Dems have been unable or unwilling to achieve.
There is no question. Electing conservatives will provide the fix America needs. RINOs will not do. We must have conservatives. If we do, conerned Americans will see the vision they pursue. We can get it right.

What the hell is an ‘ordinary leak’? One of the problems in Washington, DC is no one seems to take anything seriously. In past events regarding ‘leaks’ I have been of the opinion that ‘treason’ should dominate the discussion. What happened to the idea of a firing squad when one violates rules regarding treasonous behavior? There have been those who were spies against the US who were not ‘terminated’. I’m sorry, but if you divulge state secrets you should pay with your life.
By a faction, I understand a number of citizens, whether amounting to a majority or a minority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adversed to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community.
