It amazes me how two people can look at things so differently.
The real tragedy is how Obummer has divided this country.

The Republican Party attack on Labor goes farther than unions or collative bargaining these folks would
abolish the minimum wage laws along with the National Labor Relations Board...
Their deregulation style Government would eliminate rules on safety, overtime, wages, worker’s rights etc.
Republican policy will return the worker to the plantation style servitude for the enrichment of the few..
Capitalism fails under these policies, when the worker can’t afford to buy that new car or home, can’t
afford insurance, can’t make the payments the economy suffers...
Abraham Lincoln once urged his fellow partisans to recognize that “labor is the superior of capital, and deserves
much the higher consideration.” Unfortunately, the Republicans are no longer the Party of Lincoln.

8.1 % unemployment
368000 drop out of the workforce
Only 98000 jobs created
This isn't satire

Mitt Romney likes to say he won't "apologize" for his success in business. But what he never says is "thank you" – to the American people – for the federal bailout of Bain & Company that made so much of his outsize wealth possible.
According to the candidate's mythology, Romney took leave of his duties at the private equity firm Bain Capital in 1990 and rode in on a white horse to lead a swift restructuring of Bain & Company, preventing the collapse of the consulting firm where his career began. When The Boston Globe reported on the rescue at the time of his Senate run against Ted Kennedy, campaign aides spun Romney as the wizard behind a "long-shot miracle," bragging that he had "saved bank depositors all over the country $30 million when he saved Bain & Company."
In fact, government documents on the bailout obtained by Rolling Stone show that the legend crafted by Romney is basically a lie. The federal records, obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, reveal that Romney's initial rescue attempt at Bain & Company was actually a disaster – leaving the firm so financially strapped that it had "no value as a going concern." Even worse, the federal bailout ultimately engineered by Romney screwed the FDIC – the bank insurance system backed by taxpayers – out of at least $10 million. And in an added insult, Romney rewarded top executives at Bain with hefty bonuses at the very moment that he was demanding his handout from the feds.
