Maybe if we ignore the Fed, and their advice, they might go away?

Good thing we spent nearly a trillion dollars on something we know didn't work with Obama.

Show me how many jobs have been created since this mess began, see if you can spot any trends.
Here's a hint, jobs increased when Obama came in and have been declining since the republicans have retaken the house.
What policies have the republicans passed or attempted to pass that affects job creation.

Right, now all they have to do (or continue to get Obama to do it for them) is cut more spending, cut more taxes, deregulate and privatize medicare and their mission to completely destroy the US economy will be complete.

thats funny since the republicans do nothing but blame and havent given us any ideas that would help fix anything. the last republican debate was all about blaming and name calling, with not a single plan to fix any of thet.
its just "look how bad obama is, we're not him"
what will you do about the problem senator?
"i'm not him, so dont worry about it"

"U.S. central bankers also said inflation, excluding food and energy, will be somewhat higher than previously forecast"
In other words, excluding the global commodities that would directly highlight the decline in the purchasing power of the dollar because of our expanding of the money supply and near 0% interest rate and fears of our continuing budget deficits. A net importer of goods like the US can't lose a double digit percentage of its currency's value and expect low single digit inflation.

Here is what Ben Bernanke said. "Blah, blah, blah."

Obama needs to fire that thief.

Literally, if you live in Libya.

why am i not surprised that you would support a dictator as long as you can imply it makes obama look bad.
terrorist funding dictator = A-OK
legally elected president of your own country = bad, regardless of what he says or does.
