still just too dam depressing

One of the reasons I have not posted since last year is the simple fact that everything happening in the U.S. is just too dam depressing. Unemployment is still rampant despite the spin doctored numbers reported on television. They constantly report lower numbers trying to convince everyone that things are magically getting better.

However what they don’t tell you is the fact that people who do not qualify for unemployment benefits or who have run out of benefits are not counted, falsely showing lower numbers. When you factor in the knowledge that benefits have been running out of course the number being counted drops, but that does not mean anyone is getting a job!

Things are not improving and have not improved in any way since Obama took office.

This little article sums things up nicely – Statistics show things are getting worse in America.

Obama’s SOTU Smoke and Mirrors speech

Obama’s recent state of the union address can only be described by Shakespeare’s famous quote from Macbeth:

“…It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”

Obama may have talked about changes and redefining his administration’s objectives, the reality is the SOTU was just ‘Razzle Dazzle’ to mesmerize watchers and obfuscate the truth.
