President Obama has controversially spoken of 'great opportunity in the midst of great crisis.' The Stock Research Portal says Obama is right in principle but in practice 'at best naïve' Specifically: 'It is an absolutely ‘right concept’ - but I think available only to those comparatively few people intellectually (and emotionally) able to identify and take advantage of such opportunity.'

Thanks Globalist Republicans for the Bush Free Trade Agreements . He only added 35 he wanted more. There's about 5 million people on unemployment. Bush outsourced 5 million jobs. Is that a coincidense? Oh you f*cking lowlife Republicans quit blaming the poor.

Be rest assured the unempoyment rate will top the 10.8% mark of 1982. This recession will devastate more lives financially other than since the Great Depression. The economy is shriveling like a wimp being pummeled by a thug. The thug metaphor here is greed.
