Obama: The Country Is Better Off, People Just Don’t Feel It



The Washington Free Beacon

President Obama firmly believes the United States is better off now than when he took office, even though the American people cannot “feel” it.

During an interview with 60 Minutes’ Steve Kroft, Obama said, “the country is definitely better off than when I came into office.”

“When I came into office, our economy was in crisis,” Obama said.

The president then cited lower unemployment, private sector job growth, and deficit cuts as evidence of his administration’s success. “I can put my record against any leader around the world in terms of digging ourselves out of a terrible, almost unprecedented financial crisis,” Obama said.

When asked if the president thought the American people could feel that economic success, Obama said, “They don’t feel it.”

“The reason they don’t feel it is because incomes and wages are not going up,” he said. Obama suggested raising the minimum wage, rebuilding infrastructure, and investing in American business to continue strengthening the economy.

  1. Did anyone notice how that POS almost went “giddy” when he was about to say “Corporate profits are at an all time high”. However, minimum wage remains stagnate, “but were workin’ on that”. Well, don’t rush yourself bitch, most will just stand in line for the crumbs before you lead them over to the edge of the ditch.

    1. I’m with you CatFon, I probably miss out on some things along the way in the news but for as long as I can remember now I have always changed the channel or skipped to the next story online when this POS comes on and starts spewing lies. I can’t even stand the sight of him.

  2. “I can put my record against any leader around the world in terms of digging ourselves out of a terrible, almost unprecedented financial crisis,” Obama said.

    And I can put my foot in your a$$!

    I realize he is only a mouthpiece but sometimes I don’t have the filter to stomach him. He plays his role well!

  3. This arrogant fool is so far out of touch with reality its hard to fathom. He cannot possible believe the BS that spews from his mouth. A pathological liar doing what he does best!
