Obama privately says recovery is 1-2 years off....

    While Obama and the media go around talking about how the recovery is in full swing, looks like he is singing a different tune privately. No surprise here though, as everyone knows Obama is a two faced ass hole....

    The public President Obama, bubbly in his reelection campaigning about a recovering U.S. economy, isn’t as optimistic in private, telling a select few that it will likely take up to two years for any recovery to click in.

    A letter provided to Washington Secrets from Obama to a long-unemployed Portland, Maine carpenter pulls back the curtain of economic hope to reveal the truth about the stagnant economy. “I won’t lie to you,” Obama penned in hand to Charles Oliver in October. “It will probably take another year or two to fully dig our way out of this hole.”

    Oliver had written the president in June to ask: “Are we as Americans going to be alright?” Answered Obama, “Yes, we will be ok. Because America has gotten through tough times before, and because of good people like you.”

    While happy for the response, Oliver told us that he hasn’t seen any of the recovery the president and media have been heralding. “He’s out campaigning saying everything is coming up roses. He’s a lying SOB,” Oliver said of Obama, who has tried to temper his hopefulness with cautions that the recovery could hit speed bumps.

    Oliver recently sold his letter through a dealer to pay for truck repairs but remains unemployed. Another firm, Alexander Autographs now has his letter and is offering it to the first buyer who bids over $10,000. The company’s president, Bill Panagopulos, told us that he will give half of the profit to any company that gives Oliver a full-time job.

    What an empty life you must lead to rely on, and desperately cling to, outright distortion and intentional misinterpretation. There is no inconsistency. None. What "we" (you) have is a reading comprehension problem. A recovery can be underway without yet being out in the clear. Stated differently, the hole is getting filled, it's not getting deeper. But the job is not yet complete. Stated differently still, an aircraft can be gaining altitude but not yet be at cruising altitude. Which word did you have difficulty with?

    If you regard reality and objective comprehension as "faggy," then I can see why you're such a homophobe.

    And the search link. Are you 100% sure this is a real letter from the President? Maybe it is, can you guys tell for sure?

    And, again, if it is, when was it written, no date that I see. And, I think he's said similar things in public, pretty much common knowledge that it will take some time to recover.

    Good points, cgroupman. But just to put a finer point on it, regardless of the letter's authenticity or timing, there is no inconsistency or hypocrisy as desperately sought by the Straw Grasper in Chief of this thread, as I had explained earlier.
