President out of touch with reality

The economy is better, but you just don't know it yet, especially those of you out of work and looking for jobs with no luck for many months. President Obama, along with his puppet master, Rahm Emanuel, say the economy is better. Mr. Emanuel is the man who stated they weren't going to waste a good crisis. What kind of sick custodian of democracy is that?
Feeding off the suffering of the populace to push their sick, left-wing socialist agenda. Keep the people suffering and tell them you are there to help and that three years after complete Democrat congressional control the current circumstances were all the prior president's fault.
It's not about the economy and jobs or the fact we've mortgaged the country to China. It's about socializing health care and living in the fantasy land called man-made global warming (we'll just ignore that it recently was disclosed that some of the primary global warming propagandists made up data and distorted data to support their anti-capitalist message).
Where is the press and where are the people asking why this president is so out of touch with reality and what is truly important? Why? Because we can't waste a good crisis.
