A local business woman in my area advised her employees to

start looking for new jobs. With 4 more years of obama and his policies she is going to close her business. She stated that with the obamacare and new taxes she could not afford to stay in business much longer.
Another small business bits the dust!
By the time my kids have kids they will have to request a name from the government under the new obamaname care program. But same sex couples want have to worry about that!
Maybe this is part of the new obamabirthcontrol program.
He seems to have an answer or program for all of our nations problems!

Some more anecdotal stuff.
My mother is currently being denied repeatedly for private insurance. A surgeon did a terrible job with an operation that has left her in a pretty bad state, and no insurance company wants anything to do with her. This makes it really hard for her to continue being a sole proprietor, when a corporation would give her cushy group insurance.
This is not somebody who has abused themselves to get sick, and this is not someone who has done anything but work her tail off for her family her whole life. It's looking like she's going to be SOL until 2014, when the ACA provision enters into affect. Until then, one little bout with illness and she's bankrupt.

Now if you can post some statistics of small businesses that are closing their doors because of "obamacare", then you have a real talking point. Otherwise, I can cherry pick incidents that counteract your argument just like you did.

was some measure of hope until last night's election.
Get back to me in 4 more years when more embassy staff have been killed, we have to park our cars because we cannot afford to drive them, more jobs are lost etc etc etc... could go on about what is wrong under obama's leadership or lack thereof.
And I don't care about the color a person's skin, but I do care if they are inept, lack vision and/or the ability to lead this Great Country!!
Since he has bowed to a Saudi Prince maybe he will curtsey to the Queen of England.

But seriously, you're making all of these statements because of who we elected as PRESIDENT. The fate of this country is more so in congress's hands.
That should scare the sh!t out of you, not Obama.

the US economy and safely say this is the worst economy since the crash of 1929. Without major change of govt spending and tax cuts we are headed for a long fall down and you may be one of the people the goes down with the ship!

It was probably just a ###### business

Sounds like she was just making excuses for a poor or underperforming business. With that type of leadership I don't think it's too much of a leap to assume she probably just didn't have a very good core business idea and/or lacks the personality to be an effective entrepreneur.

Or her product/service isn't in demand anymore. That's not Obama's fault.
I'm a small business, and we're doing great. Anecdotal evidence ftw!

things, but very bad for others. The economy is cyclical. When the general markets are bad some things do great. That's why you periodically adjust your portfolio and diversify. It's called "modern portfolio theory".
