How much of my money is Obama gonna send to the earthshake victims in NZ?

...and I put this in the imaginary friend section because I wanted all you to ask your imaginary friend to quit it with all these earthshakes already...every time he gets mad at a country Obama has to send hundreds of millions of dollars to fix what god keeps on breakin'...so say a prayer would ya ?How much of my money is Obama gonna send to the earthshake victims in NZ?That is technically (scientifically) an aftershock of the September 3, 2010 Darfield, NZ 7.0 earthquake, so it doesn't really count.

Maybe if the Evangelical Party (Republican) quits giving the ultra rich big tax breaks, we can get some positive cash flow some day.How much of my money is Obama gonna send to the earthshake victims in NZ?all of it!!! Obama doesn't know printing more money, doesn't mean you actually have more money. He'll bailout the world by printing more money.How much of my money is Obama gonna send to the earthshake victims in NZ?he will give all the money to anyone who asks and then when we really need money and someone asks him where it all is,he will say "i dunno".anybody miss bush yet?

Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?

Many Obama supporters are bitter for the rising of food prices knowing Obama is a strong supporter of corn ethanol. Obama is good at blaming people and stealing people ideas or should i say pragmatic. He lacks innovation ideas. A great leader must have rocket science idea like FDR, Reagan, lincoln, etc something obama lacks. That has to come with great experience. Sorry to say, but Obama will take the U.S to depression.Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?Sorry, your facts are wrong.



First, the use of corn ethanol was part of the BUSH energy plan.



Second, one of the major reasons why food, and many other goods are increasing in price is because of the increase in gas prices. The introduction of more corn ethanol is intended to lower gas prices.



Perhaps you could actually take a little time and find a way to attack Obama (since that's all you are really trying to do anyway), that actually has some kind of logical foundataion.Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?
Not me, it is more the fault of the current and past US Presidents, pandering to farmers.



"President Bush on Friday defended his emphasis on ethanol to help the nation meet its energy needs even though increased production of the corn-based biofuel has been blamed for contributing to sharp increases in food prices."

May 2008Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?How is Obama the faulth of rising food prices when BUSH is in office. Higher gas prices means higher everything else including food because someone has to deliver it. Will you people wait until Obama reaches the White House before you blame the devastation that this country is going through and facing on him PLEASE. If he voted for corn ethanol then GO Obama I don't know about you, but I can not afford $10 gal. gas
Haha. But harsh to jump there.

The reason food prices are increased is due to the increasing prices to petrol (by oil) because of the world's addition to the black gold.



Actually, educate yourself on how Obama has credible plans to reduce America on foreign Oil via investment in Alaskan oil and mainly via green energy programmes.



Silly short-sighted Republican.



More more years? No thanks.Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?Food prices are rising rapidly all over the whole world. Including in countries that have no ethanol and which don't export to the US.

A few years of droughts, floods, cyclones, hurricanes, wild fires and tidal waves are the major cause, along with numerous undeclared wars.Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?
We are going into a Republican depression anyway because of insane conservative trickle down economics. Fuel cost makes up the biggest part of food cost increases. Thanks to people like Obama and FDR we will not have soup lines like we had in the Republican great depression.
Ummm... Where is all this corn ethanol that has been gobbling up the corn supply? I don't know of ANYWHERE that sells E85. It's a great big lie that ethanol production is contributing to food shortages.Who thinks Obama is at fault for the rising food prices by voting yes on corn ethanol?
Bush is already taking us to a depression. Thats why McCain is not going to win. We can not take another Republican in office.



Obama 08
Food prices and gas prices are being raised every day due to obama and the tree huggers.
Nope that would be Daddy Bush -- He open a Corn ethanol plant about two years ago.
Not Obama, but certainly the liberal tree huggers.
Obama is for bio fuels - he would do anything to prevent drilling, but he's WRONG!



So are people that say bros before hos.
I do. He has stated that he thinks gas prices need to go up. And he says this as gas passes the 4/gallon mark
BROS BEFORE HOES
not me.



swoosh!



2 pts.



next...
The U.S is already in a depression with Bush.

How exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?

Will he all of sudden not be a liberal anymore if elected President? Will he all of sudden turn into a WASP when/if he becomes President?



Obama has some good things say but the only thing he's going to be uniting is his own party if/when he wins the nomination.How exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?Obama can united both parties because he is, by virtue of his color, the bridge to both parties. He is the evidence of the level of changes that can be affected by a democratic and liberal government.



The Right-Wing conservatives will have to come to the middle of the road in their political thinking. If Obama is elected, Government will be showing the evidence of what effective change really is. The republicans will have to start being a little more liberal-minded in order to show us that they, too, can effect changes that will improve lives.



There isn't much evidence of improvement of life in the last 7 years with the Republicans in the White House. In fact, I believe it will take us decades to clean up the mess that Bush has made of our country.



The republicans were against Civil Rights. Civil Rights Laws, initiated and fought for by the democratic "liberals", is why Obama is able to run for President in the first place. Republicans will have to accept that Enrons, Haliburton, and all those who padded their pockets at the expense of stolen retirement funds, inflated stock values, and human lives in Iraq, will no longer be tolerated by the Commander In Chief.



No more cowboys in the White House!How exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?
He cant win...Hillary willHow exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?by opening the market, whites(republicans) dating black(democrats) and vise a verse. Same with Latino puerto ricans(democrats) dating whites, blacks and mixed Latin's(republicans)
who knows?How exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?By your logic, how can ANY person unite the country?



Let's just not try, we'll all be better off! (sarcasm)How exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?
He listens to Republican ideas. He's willing to work with Republican leaders. He considers all points of view and tries to find answers that are mutually beneficial. Not all people buy into the idea that those who think differently from you are your enemies.
Exactly; politicians say what they believe other people want to hear.How exactly is a Democrat like Obama going to supposedly unite a 2 political party country like the US?
He will win people over with his charm and smile... just like Bill Clinton did 16 years ago.
his not.. if he wins.a lot of democrats are going to get on the republican bandwagon
No you are right he won't become conservative but unfortunateley alot of people in the US vote W/ there hearts and not their brain! We can thank the MSM for this.
using his mob ties
He won't. He can't beat Clinton.
they don't use complete sentences how would any of the politicians cooperate? poly-tic
Bringing people together does not mean that 100% of the population will agree with him. But he should do better than what we have now. If he wins and has a Democratic congress, it should be expected that Democratic principles will be more common. However, he should get input from the other side. Find goals and solutions that are in all our interest. There is much both sides can agree on.

It is easy to work with politicians on the other side. It is harder to get support from the general population on the other side. Kenedy and Reagan were good at that. Hopefully, Obama, in his own way, will be as well.
he isnt. the democratic and republican party are like two kids. they each draw their line in the sand and dare each other to cross over
It's a socialist fairy tale.



He just says what (dumb) people want to hear about hope, dreams, the future. He seems like a socialist to me. He would force things upon people; perhaps that is what all the uniting is about!
B/c HE HAS A HISTORY OF WORKING WITH REPUBLICANS AND INDEPENDENTS. Here are some bi-partisan bills he wrote:



Keep Americans Warm Act of 2007

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:S.2405:

This legislation would provide an additional $1 billion in emergency funding for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program to ensure that millions of low-income families, senior citizens, and disabled Americans are able to heat their homes, keep their lights on, and cook their food during the coldest months of the year.



The Fuel Economy Reform Act of 2006

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c109:1:./temp/~c109VzCNmr:e794:

To reduce gas consumption by half a trillion gallons by 2028. It would enable domestic manufacturers to develop advanced-technology vehicles by giving them tax incentives. The bill would lift the current 60,000-per-manufacturer cap on buyer tax credits to allow more Americans to buy ultra-efficient vehicles.



Education Opportunity Act

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c109:s.3995:

Make grants available to low-income high school students to earn college credit at their local university or community college.



Amended Department Homeland Security http://www.govpro.com/News/Article/69734/

http://obama.senate.gov/press/070727-bipartisan_prop/

The amendment bars Department of Homeland Security from awarding contracts and grants of more than $5 million to federal contractors, so they have to pay taxes.



Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/09/20060926.html

This act requires the full disclosure of all entities or organizations receiving federal funds beginning 2007 on a website, USAspending.gov, maintained by the Office of Management and Budget. The website opened in December 2007 as a result of the FFAT act of 2006.



Hate Crimes - Matthew Sheppard Act

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:S.1105:

Is a proposed federal bill that would expand the 1969 United States federal hate-crime law to include crimes motivated by a victim's actual or perceived gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.



Lobbying and Ethics Reform

http://www.opencongress.org/bill/110-s230/show

Creates strict bans on receiving gifts and meals from lobbyists; new rules to slow the revolving door between public and private sector service; and an end to the subsidized use of corporate jets.The bill would create an outside ethics commission to receive complaints from the public on alleged ethics violations by members of Congress, staff, and lobbyists.



That's how he's going to unite the parties. He's a great mediator!



OBAMA 2008!

  • How long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?

    We all know that questions critical of Obama, gay marriage, illegal aliens get banned all the time by the staff at YA. How quickly will they flip and go the other way? It is bound to happen - what do you think?How long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?That's a good question! I'm critical of both the D %26amp; R parties being independent, but only really get beat up by some pretty mean D party zealots and I used to be a D back in the day! Kinda tells ya something doesn't it?



    -Individualist Anarchist / LibertarianHow long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?
    Many people who write questions, give answers and mange this forum have no critical thinking skills, They think with their emotions and thus can be persuaded by just about anything. Remember, if you stand for nothing you will fall for anything.How long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?Get over it. Everybody here in gets nailed equally. I once recieved two best answers and one Yahoo nasty gram within an hour of each other.
    i really think it depends on who is working/who is on here to determine who gets reported.How long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?I've answered lots of questions that are critical of Obama and gay marriage. (Not so much on illegal aliens but only because that's not a topic I find particularly interesting or important.)



    I think maybe it's the way you are asking the questions that might be getting your questions taken down. So I don't think you should hold your breath for the "staff flip". I think you should take this as a signal that it's time for a "YOU" flip!How long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?
    Everyone is going to be shocked. Obama will do nothing he promised. I think people are realizing their hopes and dreams being shattered. Obama was a good speaker, that is it.
    The Liberal American public likes to build people up and place them on a pedestal and then kick the pedestal out from under them.

    I'd say 2-3 months depending on what he does out of the gate. He's already back pedaled on tax breaks, timeline in Iraq, and many other things. Looks to me like those bad old chickens have come home to roost before he's even taken office. In short, his campaign promises were just lies on top of more lies.How long into Obama's Presidency do you think people at YA will start flipping and ban pos. questions of Obama?
    they wont - You have to understand a Liberal and the elitist mentality and dont worry Obama will overreach and quickly all he is doing is setting things up - He is a salesman and well any good sales man knows that you must place certain things in order first so when you go for your goal you have leway to play with - It is only true conservatives that can stop them all before it is too late - but we will have to respone quickly and effectively - Know your enemy and keep them close my friend
    You are right on that one!! It's crazy, I guess those that screamed the loudest about the freedom of speech didn't mean it for everybody!!
    YA can lick my festering hemorrhoids.

    What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?

    Living in Asia, we don't seem to get it when it comes to Obama (or at least I don't). I certainly must have missed something. What exactly does he stand for? Yes, he talks of change but what kind of change? And how does he plan to do it? So far I'm getting a much clearer picture of what Hilary plans to do (she keeps talking about it whenever I catch her on TV) but Obama is still an enigma.What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?Jimmy Carter, the sequel.



    *What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?
    Asia, Obama is so busy fighting off attacks that it is difficult to get his message out. However he has stated that how he plans to do it is by appointing fair judges and such and by not dealing with lobbyists and corporations who pay for legislation that will help them but f-ck the average American. If you really want to know what he's about it's all on the web (and I don't mean the smear sh-t). If you seek to discredit, him, just do that and don't act like you can't tell what he stands for.What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?I would sit here a type a bunch of information on where Obama stands on the issues, but that takes time and I don't want to speak for the man himself.



    Here is a link:



    http://campaigns.wikia.com/wiki/Barack_O鈥?/a>



    I hope this helps.



    By the way, all of these comments talking about how Obama is a racist is dumb, if anyone is racist it's the american people for making the issue relevant.



    Obama is not a socialist, he is a very liberal democrat that believes in equality by taxing the rich, not the middle-class. Most people fail to pay attention to these issues because they can't stop calling him either a racist or a muslim, but of which are not true. Even if he were a muslim, I wouldn't care, but since a majority of the American people are ignorant and just want to discriminate based upon supposid affiliation with 'radicals', you can't help but to pay attention to the concern.



    It's sad, but that's humanity.
    He stands for everything the democratic party stands for. Not only that but he has the ability to compromise and get things done because he has chosen to fund his campaign trough private citizens rather than taking large amounts of money from special interests and other large donners that would be expecting some sort of 'kick back' for their enormous lump sum donations.



    If you've honestly been listening to what he's been saying this is the "change" he is talking about. He explains it so often. How is he going to do it? he has already started. By funding his campaign from small private donations from grass roots supporters, and new members of the democratic party.



    He will be listening to the needs of YOU the people, instead of only those who have a large enough sum of money to contribute. That is the 'change' he stands for. that is what he has explained on many many occasions. anyone who doesn't know what he means by 'change' hasn't been paying attention.What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?That's part of the problem; we can't really tell what he stands for, and for all his eloquent speeches, he hasn't really told us; nor has he explained exactly HOW he will change anything. Obama has already divided many Americans with the racist remarks of his pastor, Jeremiah Wright. He has further divided us by making elitist comments against poor working class people. He is basically a socialist; he wants to appease and negotiate with terrorists, thereby compromising our national security; that is probably the reason Europeans seem to like him so much. They can have him. McCain 08.What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?
    you seem to be as clueless as those of us here in the states. We get to see and hear him speak in circles all the time on the news. He says a lot, and very eloquently, but doesn't say anything at all.



    He has been very vague as to what changes he wants, either b/c he doesn't know how to do what he wants or b/c he knows they are so radical that he wouldn't stand a chance of being elected.
    Who is this collective "we" who don't "get it" in Asia? If you can get to Yahoo, you can get to Obama's website. Under issues, click on "the blueprint for change" and it will bring up a PDF that explains it all issue by issue.What exactly does Obama stand for and what will he do for America?
    Obama just talks a lot because when he gets into the white house (God forbid) his idea of "change" isnt going to do a thing and then all the democrats are going to turn on him and claim that they didnt vote for him.
    No offense, but living in Asia. . .does it really concern you? And if you truly feel it does, going to Y! answers is not going to give you the information you need to truly be informed.
    We all ask the same thing, he stands for blacks and Muslims but denies both so your guess is as good as any ones take this line he said, This is a great nation we live in join me as we change it!!? all i can says is what an idiot
    1) blacks

    2) socialism

    3) corrupt friends...he will ruin America!
    Haven't you read the news? He stands for hope and change. He hopes he can pull the wool over America's eyes so he can change the President from George Bush to good ole Barry Hussein Obama.
    Nothing and Nothing
    Obama stands for Socialism and Blacks.



    If he wins,

    racism will be back for good.
    Obama stands for Robin Hood tax programs, unfortunately he thinks most American are rich.
    Obama is full of empty promises and Islam. Neither of those things are good for America.
    Hoodwinking and bamboozling.
    He stands for racism and to destroy America !!
    I don't think he knows what he stands for. I personally don't trust him. He seems weak, very weak.
    im not quite sure he repeats education and health care alot and only compliments the state hes in at the time like duh were all listening dude not just that state i dont think he knows what hes doing
    His every day stump speech: "Hope... ever body needs hope; hope is good. On the other hand I understand those who do not have hope."



    What did Obama just say?
    Absolutely NOTHING !!!!!!!!!!
    Obama is a Marxist Socialist lying pandering Politician! Thats all you need to know!
    Less an enigma than a bag of empty promises. He doesn't know himself.
    BARACK OBAMA鈥橲 PLAN



    Shine Light on Washington Lobbying



    Centralize Ethics and Lobbying Information for Voters: Obama will create a centralized Internet database of lobbying reports, ethics records, and campaign finance filings in a searchable, sortable and downloadable format.

    Require Independent Monitoring of Lobbying Laws and Ethics Rules: Obama will use the power of the presidency to fight for an independent watchdog agency to oversee the investigation of congressional ethics violations so that the public can be assured that ethics complaints will be investigated.

    Support Campaign Finance Reform: Obama supports public financing of campaigns combined with free television and radio time as a way to reduce the influence of moneyed special interests. Obama introduced public financing legislation in the Illinois State Senate, and is the only 2008 candidate to have sponsored Senator Russ Feingold鈥檚 (D-WI) tough bill to reform the presidential public financing system.



    Shine the Light on Federal Contracts, Tax Breaks and Earmarks



    Create a Public "Contracts and Influence" Database: As president, Obama will create a "contracts and influence" database that will disclose how much federal contractors spend on lobbying, and what contracts they are getting and how well they complete them.

    Expose Special Interest Tax Breaks to Public Scrutiny: Barack Obama will ensure that any tax breaks for corporate recipients - or tax earmarks - are also publicly available on the Internet in an easily searchable format.

    End Abuse of No-Bid Contracts: Barack Obama will end abuse of no-bid contracts by requiring that nearly all contract orders over $25,000 be competitively awarded.

    Sunlight Before Signing: Too often bills are rushed through Congress and to the president before the public has the opportunity to review them. As president, Obama will not sign any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days.

    Shine Light on Earmarks and Pork Barrel Spending: Obama鈥檚 Transparency and Integrity in Earmarks Act will shed light on all earmarks by disclosing the name of the legislator who asked for each earmark, along with a written justification, 72 hours before they can be approved by the full Senate.



    Bring Americans Back into their Government



    Hold 21st Century Fireside Chats: Obama will bring democracy and policy directly to the people by requiring his Cabinet officials to have periodic national broadband townhall meetings to discuss issues before their agencies.

    Make White House Communications Public: Obama will amend executive orders to ensure that communications about regulatory policymaking between persons outside government and all White House staff are disclosed to the public.

    Conduct Regulatory Agency Business in Public: Obama will require his appointees who lead the executive branch departments and rulemaking agencies to conduct the significant business of the agency in public, so that any citizen can watch these debates in person or on the Internet.

    Release Presidential Records: Obama will nullify the Bush attempts to make the timely release of presidential records more difficult.



    Free the Executive Branch from Special Interest Influence



    Close the Revolving Door on Former and Future Employers: No political appointees in an Obama administration will be permitted to work on regulations or contracts directly and substantially related to their prior employer for two years. And no political appointee will be able to lobby the executive branch after leaving government service during the remainder of the administration.

    Free Career Officials from the Influence of Politics: Obama will issue an executive order asking all new hires at the agencies to sign a form affirming that no political appointee offered them the job solely on the basis of political affiliation or contribution.

    Reform the Political Appointee Process: FEMA Director Michael Brown was not qualified to head the agency, and the result was a disaster for the people of the Gulf Coast. But in an Obama administration, every official will have to rise to the standard of proven excellence in the agency鈥檚 mission.
    He is the representitive of the black population. He chits on the little man or the middle class man, forgets about the poor people and only wants to help "african americans" or his rich neighboors. He only wants to fight with his opponents and not ignore their comments and talk about what he really plans on doing. Be thankful you live in Asia and not our slowly deminishing country. I dont think any of our candidates are worth voting for honestly thats why I am not voting. They all suck and will suck as presidents. It wouldnt suprise me if obama was shot by a black man and hillary was shot by her on kind as well. Poor McCain he wont remember getting into office much less remember what his job is supposed to be.
    He has a very detailed plan, let me give you the link



    http://www.barackobama.com/issues/



    click on blueprint for change. You will need the free Adobe Reader if you don't have it, but you probably do.



    Also below it are synopses of the plans elements if you don't have the time to read the entire plan.
    Duh...He stands for Hope and he will bring Change.



    And that is pretty much the extent of his campaign.
    He stands for 'hope' and 'change'. And hopefully, he'll make some changes.

    What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?

    Obama health plan to cost $75 billion provide health insurance for 95 percent of Americans. I know Hillary has been working on that issue over 10 years. What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?Obama's is a little closer to a single payer system, where as clintons is not. All in all, under obama's plan people and small businesses are subsidized if they participate in the federal program, under clinton's plan you can be subsidized no matter the program. There are pros and cons to both, in obama's there are few less choices, but it also costs far less. What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?
    I really don't know because Obama has not really produced a plan yet. All he has is an outline of what he would like to do. The first mistake Hillary made with her initial plan was in believing that she was smart enough to do it without expert involvement. The first plan was produced without one medical or insurance person on the planning board. The document was heavy enough to break a coffee table if dropped on it and both parties universally agreed that it made no sense whatsoever. If Obama is going to produce a plan hopefully he will at least learn from these mistakes and produce something that can actually be debated on subject matter..What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?Interesting question.. the answers are like playing "telephone" they range from pretty accurate to completely wrong. Green Pagan nailed it best..

    one thing though, Obama's plan would have mandatory aspects to it. It's very similar to what they have in Mass, Children, MUST be covered, else parents face a fine (which is really a drag) ..

    further, both rely on making insurance providers adjust their rates and ultimately lower premiums... I hate to say it, but that's liable to be a can of worms and depending on how much cooperation we get from the Insurance industry will have everything to do with how affordable it'll end up being for the population...




    The basic difference between the two was that Hillary's plan called for insurance to be mandated, meaning you had to take the government offered plans (there were several choices). Under Obama'a plan he does not mandate the plan. If you wish to keep your current plan you are free to do so.



    What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?I don't remember the minor differences because they won't be important in the end - either plan would be changed a lot in negotiations to get it through Congress. I think that Clinton's plan was clearer about mandating coverage for everyone, but that Obama's comes reasonably close.What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?
    Obama's plan does not involve any amount of mandatory participation...



    Hillary's plan is similar - but she recognized that people who want Insurance companies to rule the day would exploit any loophole you give them... so she required more mandatory participation on the part of all healthcare providers who accept government funds.
    the difference is that Obama is the president and Hillary is sucking her thumb, so her plan won't get the same consideration as his plan.

    either way, both plans are stupid.What is the different between the Obama health plan and Hillary Clinton's plan?
    The difference is that people like Obama more than they like Hillary, and there will be more support put behind him than she ever got when Bill was Pres, back when she started pushing for it.



    You know, Obama is the saviour!!!! (Not mine)
    don't get that figure in your head because you know damn well that won't be the plan when all said and done. I doubt there will be any plan for health care. You will probably be lucky to have any at all.
    You forget, that Bill Clinton was going to fix the healthcare system in the U.S. Remember Hillary was going to "help". How long ago was that? Politicians talk, Come ON!
    Obama's changed everytime he spoke.
    there is no difference, they both would have to tax the hell out of us to pay for it.
    they both suck!
    The Hillary Bush Swartznager plan is to Criminalize not having Insurance. Anyone without insurance would be arrested and sent to a labor camp.



    The Obama plan is to force Medical Professionals to treat everyone under the same threat. They would be arrested and sent to labor camps if they refused to treat someone that could not pay.

    Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?

    Isn't arrogant for him to go around Sec of Def Robert Gates and violate the chain of command to speak with his directly generals?

    -------

    Obama has been spending a great deal of time on Afghanistan as of late. Am I doing a good job anticipating the baseless Republican talking points which are sure to follow?Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?That was perfect 10/10Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?
    You realize that Bush constantly broke the chane of command, cutting his Sec/Def out of the loop when he spoke with his generals in Iraq? Probably wasn't the best move for the war then either.



    Unfortunantly, though, the primary job of the president is to execute the will of the people, and everything I have seen says that less than 1/3 of the nation wants us to keep fighting in Afghanistan.



    As a liberal, I must say that I would preferr to avoid war at all times, but as a foreign policy analyst, I must say that a pullout from Afghanistan would be disastrous. The Taliban are more than capable of retaking the nation and have made such deep inroads into an already troubled Pakistan, that I would give even money on the descent of Pakistan into a state of total anarchy were we to let up the pressure in Afghanistan. This would be a terrible threat to international peace and stability due to Pakistan's nuclear stockpiles.Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?The decision falls to the President - that's why we hired him. And he can't just say, "The Generals told me to so it's not my fault." I wouldn't like to have this one on my plate.



    And further, I’m not sure I understand why we’re fighting in Afghanistan. If it’s to capture or kill Bin Laden, sign me up – I’m on board. But preventing a “safe haven” for Al Qaeda makes little sense to me. Their “havens” seem pretty safe right now. They don’t need a country to plan an attack, they only need a tent. None of the 757 suicide pilots trained for 9-11 in Afghanistan – they trained in Denver and at other flight schools. We don’t need to control a whole country to prevent a terror attack, we need intelligence and that needs to be world-wide. I’m not sure I understand.
    It was General McChrystal who disobeyed the Chain-of-Command by speaking about his request for more troops. Obama could have fired him through Secretary Gates. Instead, Gates told everyone below the president to keep their mouths shut. That's the proper way. The President is the military's Commander-in-Chief. Truman fired McArthur, ya hear?Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?Obama is the commander in chief. Is not right to micromanage a war. It is correct however to set the goals of the war.



    The goal is as stated by Obama himself. to defeat Al-Queda, dismantle it and rendered incapable of attacking the US and its allies.



    If that can be accomplished with the defeat of the Taliban, be it.

    If that can be accomplished without the defeat of the Taliban, be it.Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?
    He's not listening to them so who cares? The problem is he's trying to play politics and keep his voters happy. The problem is he's indirectly getting our soldiers killed by not listening. They need support and they need it NOW. I have liked that Obama has talked a good game concerning Afghanistan, yet he continues to not act. He needs to act and stop politicking.
    Concentrating? Sorry but he's had a request from General McCrystal for more troops since AUGUST and he's done nothing. Obama has to order more troops to fight and all he's done is state we aren't leaving. That's not dealing with the issue.



    He focused on pitching the Olympics instead of dealing with Afghanistan. Look at the facts, dude. Nice rant!Obama has been concentrating on Afghanistan a lot lately. Do we really want a civilian micromanaging the war?
    Micromanagement is a misnomer. How can anyone micro manage anything unless it's an assuage meaning they manage very little.



    I guess you'd rather have a Dictatorship here in America where the Military rules everything from commerce to the government and the generals are answerable to no one.



    It just so happens that our military is answerable to our highest government officials. That's one of the reasons America is a Democracy and not a Republic full of Republicans.
    The problem is Obama is an amateur and has no clue what he is doing and his advisors are morons. Add that to the fact he won't even meet with or listen to his generals and then says it will take him weeks to make a decision on startegy makes for a sad situation and more American lives lost.
    This really is shaping up to become another Vietnam. Why? Because a Socialist acting as Commander-in-Chief is setting rules of engagement that make it nearly impossible for our troops to win.



    The media has failed to talk about the “new” rules of engagement that I first heard about last month when 4 marines died.



    http://www.military.com/news/article/amb…



    The U.S. troops had to wait more than an hour for attack helicopters to come to their aid and their appeal for artillery fire was rejected, with commanders citing new rules designed to avoid civilian casualties, the report said. o_O
    Concentrating? Please. A trip to Demark to push chicago for the Olympics. Letterman, TV? Uh uh...yhr only reason hr's looking at it now is 'cause McKrystaal is spouting off about what he needs.

    But youre right about the micro-managing, Just give the General what he wants. He knows a hell of a lot better than a jr senator or career idot Biden. But politics will win out.



    I pity the soldiers.
    I do not want Obama micro-manage anything.

    Car companies, banks, insurance companies and for heaven sakes certainly not the military.



    He is an idiot who has zero practical experience in everything and it shows everyday.
    I'm sure we could cut a deal with the Taliban. We leave. You take over. You keep Al Queda out of Afghanistan and dry up the poppy fields. You get zero aid. If we leave and you don't hold up your end of the bargain, we come back and kill every living thing above ground. Deal?
    The Obama has always had a deep distrust of the military. Read his books. Bush had the temerity to let the military manage the war. The Obama wants to manage it himself. After all of his experience as a community organizer, why would you question his judgement?
    Civilian leadership in the government controls the military. That is the way our U.S. Constitution is written. Ultimate responsibility for the country's strategic decision-making in the hands of the commander in chief and funding from the congress rather than professional military officers.
    Huh? He hasn't been "concentrating" on Afghanistan at all!! He was concentrating on socializing health care, then he decided to concentrate on getting the Olympic to his corrupt city. Gen. McChrystal's concerns are just an after-fart for the arrogant commander-in-chief.
    The pres is the commander in chief. The issue you are trying to artfully dodge (fabricating lib that you are) is that Obama doesn't even do what his own general tells him.
    And, uh I suppose the " professionals' that got us into Iraq did a good job themselves.



    Otherwise, I suppose you are correct about the talking points.

    This has me thinking back on how Truman had a few meetings with McArthur.
    What might Obama add to military discussions? What does he bring to the table that Bush and Clinton didn't? Nothing.



    All of them should have deferred to their betters on the subject.
    The only time Obama pays attention to the military is when his face is shoved into it.
    He will tell you, but he needs another cigarette first.
    No he should review it periodically
    You mean like Bush,Cheney and Rummy did?
    Yes, a Head of State should never interact with the military they control
    That is what our founding fathers wanted and it has worked so far. Peace

  • How were American living standards before Obama got elected, and after that?

    I'm interested in the reasons for which Obama lost so much popularity after the elections. I'm not from the USA, so I can't check it for myself, so I'm asking you.



    Can you please make a short comparison of life before the elections and after them, based on your own experiences? The compared aspects should be: taxation, bureaucracy, overall financial well-being, intervention of the state in private life and whatever else you think should be added. Thank you very much.How were American living standards before Obama got elected, and after that?I have seven personal friends and acquaintances that went from affluent to unemployed.

    I personally have to put off retirement and have lost a significant percentage of my savings for retirement.

    I do not think I am alone in my plight. At least I still have my home; ONLY because it was PAID for before Obama started to Destroy America!

    The only people doing well are those who get bonuses from the money Obama is borrowuing to reward those that caused this mess.

    Your children and grand children will get stuck with paying the bill for Obama's extreme WASTE of our futures.How were American living standards before Obama got elected, and after that?
    Basically, it went from bad to worse.



    Coming after a bad president, Obama won people over by saying "change" alot. We, the American people, assumed that meant that he would make everything better. But, since people voted him based on the color of his skin, and not what was going on upstairs (not smart), people have been in for a big surprise.



    He's trying to solve our economic recession by offering bigger welfare benefits to the unemployed, a 787 billion dollar bailout when we don't have money for such a thing, and wants to shove universal health care down our throats in a captialist nation. That is basically where we are right now.How were American living standards before Obama got elected, and after that?Prior, housing good, NASDAQ and DOW strong, Dollar Strong, small business strong, corps strong...



    After Housing crappy, stock market unstable, dollar weak, small business closing and corp scared or government owned (GM)

    The parallels between the Jonestown Colony and the Obama movement, with people fainting and thinking a politician could change the world are eerie.

    American Family Foundation (14 Characteristics)





    1. The group is focused on a living leader to whom members seem to display excessively zealous, unquestioning commitment.



    2. The group is preoccupied with bringing in new members.



    3. The group is preoccupied with making money.



    4. Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.



    5. Mind-numbing techniques (such as meditation, chanting, speaking in tongues, denunciation sessions, debilitating work routines) are used to suppress doubts about the group and its leader(s).



    6. The leadership dictates sometimes in great detail how members should think, act, and feel (for example: members must get permission from leaders to date, change jobs, get married; leaders may prescribe what types of clothes to wear, where to live, how to discipline children, and so forth).



    7. The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s), and members (for example: the leader is considered the Messiah or an avatar; the group and/or the leader has a special mission to save humanity).



    8. The group has a polarized us-versus-them mentality, which causes conflict with the wider society.



    9. The group's leader is not accountable to any authorities (as are, for example, military commanders and ministers, priests, monks, and rabbis of mainstream denominations).



    10. The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify means that members would have considered unethical before joining the group (for example: collecting money for bogus charities).



    11. The leadership induces guilt feelings in members in order to control them.



    12. Members' subservience to the group causes them to cut ties with family and friends, and to give up personal goals and activities that were of interest before joining the group.



    13. Members are expected to devote inordinate amounts of time to the group.



    14. Members are encouraged or required to live and/or socialize only with other group members.Should we start referring to the Obama movement as the Obamatown colony?I'm sorry but do you just need to pay attention today. President Obama is trying to fix the s--- he walked into. I hope and pray that every one stay focus on the problems he is trying to address so that other nation will respect our country. The one thing I want is for every one to give him a chance to fix all the bull that happen before you even know who President Obama was. We drank the kool-aid when Former President Bush was in office people wake up change doesn't happen fast.
    I am not seeing or hearing of people fainting over Obama. Thus, you are disgorging neocon BS once again. Further, there are no parallels between the two.

    How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?

    There has been numerous reports of white supremacists or others planning on the assassination of presidential hopeful Barack Obama. I wonder if there would be a riot or something if he indeed died. If he was taken out before. I wonder how that would look on Mccain or effect his cause? How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?Gee, thats a doom and gloom thing to think about.

    First, i really doubt we will see that happen with any president. yeah-anything is possible but in this day and age things are so different than when Kennedy was shot. The Secret Service has came a very long way since then. It is practically a lockdown when a president comes to town. Every step is planned out well in advance.

    How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?
    It would be the same as the riots during the 1990's in LA or the ones during Katrina. Remembers, it's not the educated black man rioting because he feels that his race has been dealt an injustice, it is almost always the black man who has an arrest sheet and cares nothing for justice anyway. A little ironic that it is the people who don't have any respect for their own race that riot. This is because it is not the cause that they care about. They are embracing the opportunity to plunder, steal and rape women, black and white.



    Lastly, I really don't see how so many people are comparing Kennedy to Obama. He would be rolling over in his grave if he heard such things.How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?That's a good question. America prides itself on being able to roll with the punches. I honestly think they would get by fairly easily. But I'm sure also that we would see a lot of ignorant people who use it as a reason to riot and or attack other people. Racism would show it's ugly head and that is sad!

    McCain will do OK if he plays it smart. One slip would destroy his career, and I'm not sure he is smart enough to do that.

    Numerous people will make this out to be about his skin color. But If Colen Powell or Rice were there, They would be even better than Obama. I really don't want to see him as the President. But I wouldn't want to see him killed.
    Well, it would be the same as if Hillary was elected, or McCain was elected, and got assassinated. Supporters would possibly riot, America's feathers would be a little ruffled and shaken, and it'd cause a stir.

    And if there are reports, the FBI probably already knew and took care of it. It's amazing how advanced they are, seriously.

    How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?It could be disasterous. Regardless of who you think shot him, the assination of president Kennedy scared America and pushed it hard towards conservatism. It's basically been responsible for the dominance of neo conservatism and the high security state which has been slowly transforming America (and by extension, the world) into the Orwellian nightmare it's becoming.How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?
    Everyone always talks about where they were when Kennedy got shot. I don't think this nation could handle an assassination. I think it would cause a national riot. Do you really want to have to worry every time you send your kids to school? How about worrying if your house will still be standing when you come home from work? I live in a prodominantly black part of TX but most people I have talked to are undecided.
    If Obama was assassinated, the dream of Martin Luther King, Jr. is still a dream. And Americans have no right to talk about Human Right.How would America be effected if Obama was assassinated either before or after being elected president?
    It would not bother me one single bit, it might even make me smile, but it would be disatourous for this country so i dont want to see it
    i would say it would depend a little on the shooter. eg white American=race riots

    middle Eaastern=his country been in the stone age and loss of more civil liberties
    Hillary would become the candidate and frankly that would BLOW!
    we'd be in good hands with joe biden.

    What Is President Obama's Greatest Accomplishment As President So Far?

    What are your personal favorite accomplishments of President Obama? What traits of The Leader do you most admire? How will you try to be more like President Obama?What Is President Obama's Greatest Accomplishment As President So Far?I admire his vacationing skills. I am terrible about taking time off work. I tend to hoard vacation to use in the event of a undesireable sittuation ie accident, or death of loved one etc. From this point on I vow to disregaurd my responsibilities and leave them behind, no matter who it effects while I indulge in selfishness.What Is President Obama's Greatest Accomplishment As President So Far?
    He actually has done nothing great. All he has done is raise taxes by passes the health care bill, and he is going to eliminate the Bush tax-cuts to the middle class. But if you wanted a progressive liberal president then he has many accomplishments. I do not admire any of his traits, but I DO RESPECT HIM AS PRESIDENT. I would never want to be like President Obama because I am not a progressive or a far-left liberal, I am a social and fiscal conservative Republican. But i do pray for him and his family and I wish he would realize that his policies will fail in this country.What Is President Obama's Greatest Accomplishment As President So Far?Tough decision. The stimulus bill has put a lot of people back to work and is leading to better roads and bridges. His health care reform act will help an enormous number of people. His Supreme Court picks have been absolutely brilliant. His handling of foreign policy has been first rate, and the U.S. has once again regained most of the stature it lost under Bush. Certainly his legalization of stem cell research has been a terrific boon, not only giving hope to those who suffer grave illnesses but also strengthening the biotech industry. He cash for clunkers program may very well have saved the American auto industry. His credit card reform is certainly good news for consumers tired of being cheated and manipulated by banks. And, his anti-terrorism efforts have been vastly more successful than those of Bush.

    How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?

    He sent a letter to Russia saying he remove missle defense systems if they please, please don't be mean to us. Doesn't this make America look pathetic and weak? Is Hussein Obama really that naive?How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?Just the first of many. Obama really believes that all problems of the world can be fixed just by sitting down and talking.



    Russia is playing him for a fool. Obama would take down the missile shield... Much to the dismay of our much stronger allies... and then russia would just go right back to dealing with Iran under the table.



    Don't believe that?? Well just keep on being naive. Russia has tried to curb US interests at every turn. Remember Russia performing navy exercises with Venezuela? Their continued dealings with Iran? Their support of North Korea along with China??



    Yea Russia will just roll over with diplomacy.How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?
    i don't know where you come from but in america we call people by their first and last name's not their middle and last name's so you can call him

    "Barack" or "Obama" or "Barack Obama" or "President Obama" or "Mr. President"





    oh and to answer your question what happened was that russia help us solve a problem in Iran and obama thank them by removing the missile defense system. nowhere did he say he would do it if they wouldn't be mean to us.How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?I did not read the letter, but I can guess why on a couple accounts. For starters, the missle defense system is marginal at best.....it does not work. The balastic trajectory and the speeds involved have not been overcome. I am not against the research but the system does not work.



    Secondly, the host nations of the missle sites are being squeezed hard from Russia. These countries need natural gas from them.



    Thirdly, Its not a good idea to rekindle the cold war when our national resources and military are stretched to thier limits.



    It is not 1980. I do not totally trust Russia, but sometimes a step back can be in the right direction.
    YOU are the reason the G O P was voted OUT

    You probably aren't old enough to remember but the USA threatened Nukes when Russia moved its arsenal that close to us (Cuba)



    Here IS WHAT IS BEING SAID AND DONE



    WASHINGTON - U.S. President Barack Obama is telling Russian counterpart Dmitry Medvedev that U.S. plans for a missile defence system in Eastern Europe might be unnecessary if Moscow helped block Iran's progress toward building long-range missiles, senior administration officials said Tuesday.



    Plans for deploying U.S. missile defences in Poland and the Czech Republic, ostensibly to guard against Iranian attacks on American allies in Europe, are among a host of issues that soured U.S.-Russia relations during the former Bush administration. There have been indications Obama, who has vowed to shake up American foreign policy, might be willing to set aside the missile defence system.How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?I've deal with a lot of different people from different countries all over the world and I can tell you that Russians are the ones that I trust the least.

    That's based purely on my own person experience. I don't have them. I don't not work with them because of my past experience but there are the ones that have lied to me the most and gone back on their word more times than any other people.How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?
    I don't know...how do you feel about Bush Sr. giving weapons to the Taliban in Afghanistan when the Russians were there trying to root them out?



    Edit: Awww...I see I have some thumbs-down on my answer, did I make you bushbots sad that your former leader willingly aided a terrorist organization?
    We are not at war with Russia.



    I have not read the article yet on what he said but, according to rhetoric from the previous administration, the missile system was designed to intercept missiles from Iran, not to threaten Russia's nuclear deterrent.How do you feel about Hussein Obama sending a letter of surrender to Russia?
    Obama is going to "change" America remember? I wonder what the new country will be called?
    Sounds like a peacemaking move to me. They can always be returned if need be. The world thinks we are bullies, and maybe they're right. Chill out, hater.
    That has always been the motive of The Democrats since Carter.I will say up until now with both party's being the same suit now,Thank-god for the two Party system.Like I said UNTIL NOW!
    Who is Hussein Obama?
    Don't fool yourself, its not being naive it deliberate planing. And that is why we should be scared to death.
    Read the article again, and stop listening to Oxyrush-your leader.

    Also, he can do whatever he wants because he is the president. American presidency has turned into imperial presidency. For an example, look at all of the bills that Bush was able to pass without much contradiction.
    But he is. Unjustly as it is. From the very inception of the United States of America. We as a nation have been I debt. In fact the revolution was funded by falsehoods. Ducats were given out with the implication is that Spain was willing to pay for Americas revolution. when in fact the United States didn't have the ability to fund it's revolution. Since it's inception. The US has never been debt free.Why is President Obama not judged by the same standards as all previous presidents?Because no one wants to be called prejudiced, which of course you would HAVE to be if you had anything negative to say about this President %26lt;chuckle%26gt;.Why is President Obama not judged by the same standards as all previous presidents?
    politicians are all judged by standard of promises they alone make.No it is not fair to judge past leaders by his standards.
    When has any affirmative action recipient ever been treated the same instead of getting something not earned?Why is President Obama not judged by the same standards as all previous presidents?
    Because Obama is black, a democrat and a liberal
    Because he appeals to the uneducated.
    Don't tell me for one second you judge him by the same standards?
    Like, Republicans are role models of objectivity? Please.
    Because he has a different skin color. people should not judge by that
    did anyone question george washington's birth certificate?
    Because he's an anti-American racist socialist.

    How is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?

    I am an honest Liberal (and yes, I support Obama) trying to understand the other perspective. I have quite a few questions.



    1. How is Obama a "socialist"?

    2. Why are there many who think Socialism means "evil"?

    3. How is Socialism a "bad thing"?

    4. What is the true definition of the word Socialism?How is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?Some answers from a Socialist:

    1. Both the Democratic Socialists of America and The Socialist Party of the USA agree that Obama's policies are quite a bit to the right of being called socialist. America, after all, has always been a capitalist nation (with some socialist elements.

    2. Socialist sis just the newest type of evil bogeymen to scare people (along with Terrorism, Liberalism, Atheism etc.)

    3. Many conservatives believe that since America was founded on capitalism, it must stay with Capitalism forever. There are of course many flaws with socialism, such as lack of incentive for people to work, but I believe that these problems should be fixed, not dismissed as "socialism fails"

    4. Socialism has many possible definitions. In Marxist Ideology, it is the stage between capitalism and Communism(defined as classless Utopia) A commonly accepted definition is that it is the system of wealth being controlled by the government, and distributed as it wishes. Though many modern socialist parties point out that it isn't necessarily the government, but the people, It is necessary to remember that in a fully Democratic society, the Government is the People. This why the USSR was not really socialist, because the Governmentnt of the USSR wasn't Democratic at all, so it was a matter of the State controlling the means of production, which was pretty distinct from the people.

    I know you were looking for a right wing point of view, but this was my left wing interpretation :)How is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?
    1. Obama is socialist because he stands for and is trying to implement socialist behaviors into our country.

    2. I don't think Socialism is per se "evil", but look at history. It doesn't work.

    3. Socialism is a way for lazy people to mooch off of people who work their butts off all day trying to support themselves. How would you feel if you worked for 14 hours straight, got your paycheck and someone forced you to give a huge chunk of that to some guy who is unemployed because he's sitting on his couch watching TV all day eating Doritos? It's not fair. I work for my money, and I am not prepared to give it away to help people that are too lazy to get off their butts and get a job.

    4. The actual definition of Socialism is:



    A theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

    2. procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.

    3. (in Marxist theory) the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles.How is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?1 - Socialism requires a totalitarian system -- that gives the ruling gang the power to distribute the fruits of other people's labor to its political pals. That is what is happening to the United States as President Obama proceeds with his goal of "remaking America."



    In America, there is no room for Communism, Marxism , Socialism and Fascism - these are the same philosophies our brave men and women fought and died trying to stop and destroy. Remember tyranny by government started the American Revolution.



    2 - The younger generation probably doesn't realize that the word socialism means and connotes a system that is profoundly un-American. Socialism has virtually disappeared from our national lexicon since the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) collapsed because of Ronald Reagan's policies and the National Socialist (Nazi) Party was destroyed by the United States in World War II.



    3 - most college students are economically illiterate. When quizzed by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute about basic concepts, such as supply and demand, the average student’s score was 53 percent. And since most don’t work or pay taxes (only 46 percent of full-time students have jobs), they simply have no idea how capitalism works.



    But they do understand grades. Students who study hard get good grades; students who skip class and binge drink every night get bad grades. Some struggle with difficult material, but with enough effort (attending office hours, seeing a tutor) most can maintain a decent GPA. Every sane college student realizes the immorality of “spreading the grades around”—regardless of who benefits.



    And it makes their rationales for supporting socialism interesting.

    http://www.youtube.com/v/_p8DFUnYtPo%26amp;hl=…



    This is typical. Day in and day out, professors indoctrinate students with hatred for the greedy “rich”—which, under our tax code, includes a lot of middle-class families just like theirs, who struggle to pay the mortgage and college tuition. They’re taught to believe that people who don’t work are entitled to endless welfare benefits financed by the productive class. But when it comes to redistributing grades they earned, they don’t support it.



    4 - The American Heritage Dictionary defines socialism as a system of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods are owned by a centralized government that plans and controls the economy. Both Webster and Random House identify socialism as a "Marxist theory."



    o_OHow is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?
    I agree with you, Socialism is a GOOD thing!



    I'm unemployed and Obama's policy of "Spread The Wealth" is working great!



    Evil Rich people are gonna be forced to pay for my house, food, car and health care



    Socialism is the greatest system in the world!How is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?Socialism is not good enough. COMMUNISTA REVOLUTIONHow is President Obama a socialist, and why do many naysayers equate the word socialism to "evil"?
    1. Obama is an adherent to the philosophy of legal plunder, and legal plunder is identified quite simply. "See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime." — Frederic Bastiat



    Obama wishes to expand the plunder exponentially, all in the name of the "common good".



    2. We ask that the government undertake the obligation above all of providing citizens with adequate opportunity for employment and earning a living. The activities of the individual must not be allowed to clash with the interests of the community, but must take place within its confines and be for the good of all. We demand profit sharing in big business. We demand a broad extension of care for the aged. In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership, the government must provide an all-around enlargement of our entire system of public education … We demand the education at government expense of gifted children of poor parents … The government must undertake the improvement of public health. We… are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good. – From the political program of the Nazi (National Socialist) Party, adopted in Munich, February 24, 1920



    3. Socialism is not in the least what it pretends to be. It is not the pioneer of a better and finer world, but the spoiler of what thousands of years of civilization have created. It does not build, it destroys. For destruction is the essence of it. It produces nothing, it only consumes what the social order based on private ownership in the means of production has created. -- MISES, LUDWIG VON, Socialism



    4. At the time I wrote, socialism meant unambiguously the nationalization of the means of production and the central economic planning which this made possible and necessary...socialism has come to mean chiefly the extensive redistribution of incomes through taxation and the institutions of the welfare state. -- HAYEK, F.A., The Road to Serfdom, 1976 Preface

    Who will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?

    all the networks go on endlessly about how Hillary should feel bad because she thinks she would make a better prez than obama, but they cant use that tactic on the GOP hate machine, so who's gonna protect obama then?Who will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?McCain is going to get owned by Obama. Obama clearly has better debating skills than that of Clinton or McCain and he has shown them by presenting his position on the issues during the debate and not resorting to pettiness like Clinton does to Obama during debates. Clinton never wins the debates she is just the one who is the most negative and divisive to the Democratic party. And if that is the criteria to win the debates then she must have won by a landslideWho will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?
    No one. He he he.Who will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?He himself. He said he can save the world so why not save himself.
    THE QUESTION IS: WHO IS GOING TO PROTECT MCCAIN WHEN OBAMA DEBATES HIM.Who will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?whattttttWho will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?
    Well, one thing you can be sure of, Obama won't CRY during a debate (or after a debate while talking with the media)..
    I don't see anybody giving her a win in debates...what I've seen is that it's a tie which gives Obama the edge.Who will protect obama's feelings during the general election if he gets the nomination?
    I don't recall him ever asking the networks to stick up for him in the first place. I hope if he wins the nomination he is vetted in the general election. If he can't make convincing arguments then he'll lose and I have no problem with that. That's the beauty of our system. However, if he does make convincing arguments and he holds his own, will his naysayers finally be quiet?
    Obama's gonna win, so get used to it.
    Obama is a far better speaker and debater than Billarry.

    How do Democrats feel about Obama's plummeting approval ratings?

    According to many news sources Obama's pole numbers are down to about 50%, while the Democrats are at a dismal 20% approval in Congress, fact.



    So, with all that has happened, do you really think that Obama will keep the White House for a second term? We already know that the Democrats will lose the majority in Congress in 2010, that is already established. And you can forget about Obama in 2012, according to many news sources.How do Democrats feel about Obama's plummeting approval ratings?I've seen unbiased poll numbers much lower then that even. I seen one around 33% approval. God bless.
    Its still bushes fault. Watch and see.
    Oh, so you're doing like the other guy and conducting your own polls of yourself, your friends, and your relatives?



    Now, for the reality--how's life for a man in prison?
    They'll just ignore it.
    They're only plummeting in your mind.



    Unless I dont understand what 'pole' numbers are.
    Where's the link?
    what are your sources?



    Here's Bloomberg:

    http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=2…
    How do I feel about it?



    I feel it's NOT plummeting.



    Unless you're deluded and reality challenged!
    why you are not at your work?



    see your old Question please.
    you are badly misled
    We don't think his ratings are plummeting because we live in the fact-based world.



    BTW, it's "poll" not "pole."



    **********

    Fact about Texas: Rick Perry has asked the federal government for assistance 13 times since he's been in office--the most for any state. If Texas secedes, that will save the rest of us money, but I'm not sure where Texans will get help when a tornado runs through or they all catch the Swine Flu.



    ----------------



    Did you know that the blue states PAY more taxes than they get back from the federal government while the red states TAKE more taxes than they pay?



    http://able2know.org/topic/34681-1
    Democrats will do as they always do...either ignore it, or somehow find a way to blame the Bush administration.

    It's kind of a pathetic approach really, but then again, the ARE democrats
    Perhaps his pole numbers are different from his poll numbers?



    I wouldn't give him high approval on a pole.





    EDIT: Yes, this is the same poster who told us about her "Panama war" husband driving her SUV being flipped off and also told us that another attack on the US could be a good thing to get Republicans back in office.
    His approval rating is 69 percent according to ABC, 68 according to CBS. You are not gaining 39 seats in the House in 2010. You ain't never gonna get 10 seats in the Senate in 2010. Forget it. President Obama will have Democratic majorities going into the 2012 elections, and he will be re-elected in a second landslide.



    A bunch of liars working for Fox does not qualify as "many news sources."
    Obama did promise 'change'. He replaced a liberal in the White house now he is changing the Congress from Liberal mental defectives to Conservatives in 2010 (Hopefully with Common Sense to Try and balance the Federal Budget by Addressing the CAUSE of the Deficits).



    http://www.pollingreport.com/2012.htm



    Not looking for Hussian to be re-selected.
    STILL better tahn dumbya!
    Stop watching Fox news. They don't tell the truth.
    name ONE source besides fox news...everybody who reads this go to pollingreport.com and check all the stats you want...what are you going to run on in 2010? torture? tax cuts for the top 2% of the country?
    Nowhere close to that number. YOU MUST be watching FAUX ENTERTAINMENT NEWS!



    Actually HIS APPROVAL IS 86%, now the running of the country is 68%.



    Don't look bad to me at all.
    You are in dreamland!
    "many news sources"? I thought Fox's line was "fair and balanced"?



    The economy will bounce back and Obamas will go another term. and we'll get four more years of crybaby whining from waaaay too far right repubs on YA.
    His 'pole' numbers are down? Does that mean he needs Viagra?
    I don't pay attention to polls, they are extremely inaccurate and subject to manipulation. Statistics and surveys are the same way. You can word a question in such a way to solicit the answer you are wanting to project to the audience. People bend statistical data all the time to make it say what they want it to say. I'm not a fan of Obama, I don't need to take a poll to know that. I wasn't a fan of Bush either, didn't need a poll then either.
    The latest NBC/Wall Street Journal poll paints this chasm in sharp relief; 51 percent of Americans both like Obama personally and approve of his policies while 30 percent like him personally but disapprove of his policies.



    On the one hand, more than eight in ten Americans feel warmly toward Obama, suggesting he has a deep reservoir of personal likability and will continue to tap it in order to sell his agenda to the country.



    On the other, the fact that three in ten like Obama but dislike his policies could well portend a much more difficult political environment for the president over the next 100 days than he dealt with in the first 100 days.



    How big an issue is the chasm between Obama's personal favorability and the approval of his policies?



    "It poses a significant challenge for Obama to turn the 'hope' voters have for his success into 'results,'" explained Republican pollster Neil Newhouse of Public Opinion Strategies. "The more stark the gap between those two, the more his programs are at risk."



    Mark Penn, a Democratic pollster who handled survey research for Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign said that the data is a reflection that "people are comfortable with Obama's leadership style but remain uncertain about his policies, especially the potential deficits."



    Republicans have gone hard after the idea that all of Obama's spending in the first 100 days will come home to roost at some point in the not-too-distant future, and there is some evidence that the American public remains concerned about government spending too much, too fast.



    In the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll, nearly nine in ten Americans (87 percent) said they were either "very" (59 percent) or "somewhat" (27 percent) concerned about the size of the federal budget deficit -- numbers that have held steady in Post polling since December 2008.



    Asked in the NBC/WSJ poll whether the budget deficit was a "real and important number" with a direct effect on the average citizen or a "bookkeeping and governmental number" with little impact, 68 percent agreed with the former statement and 27 percent with the latter.



    Obama and his senior aides are well aware of the dangers inherent in the massive government spending they have instituted in response the economic crisis gripping the country.



    It's why Obama regularly speaks of "bending the curve" on spending once the economic crisis passes, why he asked his Cabinet to cut $100 million from their combined budgets, and why he devoted the whole of last weekend's radio/You Tube address to touting the need for fiscal discipline.



    "The cost of confronting our economic crisis is high," acknowledged Obama. "But we can't settle for a future of rising deficits and debt that our children can't pay."
    they will deny it as we expect them to
    I love you Obama,(weeping, wailing) I will stand by you no matter what you do to this country cause chills run up and down my legs just hearing your lying voice.(Screaming) Obama I can't believe it! I love you omg I love you, (breathless whisper) I love you Obama.
    I love the smell of delusion in the morning, or afternoon.



    Current Obama favorable rating in NBC/Wall St Journal poll: 64%

    Last pre-election rating: 56%



    Current in CBS/NYT: 54%

    Last pre-election: 50%



    Current in ABC/Post: 72%

    Last pre-election: 64%



    Current in FOX: 68%

    Last pre-election: 57%



    Current in CNN: 69%

    Last pre-election: 60%



    And if you think these numbers look bad for your team, you should see the ratings on Congressional parties.



    But you go on thinking that you're about to win a huge triumph as long as you're careful to purge from your party anyone who's slightly to the left of Sarah Palin, or who seems to be more intelligent. I think you can still lose another 40 - 50 seats combined in Congress. That should leave you with a party that is really controlled by the true believers.
    More lies. Troll.

    Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?

    They thought everything was peachy while Bush was in office, oblivious to the debacle.



    Now they seem aware that there is a problem, but now Obama is president so they think it must be his fault.



    Republicans are like senile people.Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?Because limbaugh and beck told them that life under the shrub and his corporate masters was a utopia.Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?
    He inherited the mess approved by the Democrat Congress, they approved EVERYTHING from 2007 to date, if Obama was not aware of the problems facing him, he should not have run for the office, if he can't handle it, he should resign and let someone else run it, successful men do not blame others for their failures, they pick up the load and move forward, could Alexander the Great have conquered the world , by simply complaining about the past--Obama has all the power he needs to change anything he wants, yet he stands and blames Bush, the Mobs at Town Hall Meetings, the Astro Turf, the Bible Clingers, the GunToters, Insurances Companies, the Rich, the right wing extremists in the military, Fox News---Obama has control of a super power nation, yet he takes 90+ days to decide what his generals asked him to do in the first place***********************************…Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?Because libs deregulated the banks in '93 visa vis Dodd, Frank and Clinton. Osama was offered to Clinton on at least 3 occasions and was let go. Because on 16 attempts to re-regulate the banks by the Bush administration met with opposition in legislature. Because libs rewrite history to suite themselves and cover up their screw ups. Because Obama has had a year and things are still getting worse. Yes Obama inherited a mess, but he has mucked around and made the quagmire deeper. Because you libs will not accept that Obama is not the Divine. Most conservatives know and accept the errors of Bush, but he did not cause the great flood or the tidal wave that hit Indonesia. Get a life and get over Bush, he is gone. You have the reins now and are still screwing up.
    No one will deny that Bush helped create the mess that was present when Obama took office. He was a terrible president. However, Obama's administration is making the mess bigger. They are spending when they should be cutting the spending. They want to raise taxes on people who are already struggling to make ends meet. They are willing to push a Health Care Reform Bill through, knowing it's going to increase insurance rates and make things harder for those already struggling financially just to say they got a bill through. All Obama does is make speeches. You can't fix this country by making speeches.

    There's really not enough room here to list all of the mistakes he's making.Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?Since the heady President-Elect of the United States of America days of mid-November, when 0bama had a news conference 3-5 days a week, he has owned every problem that affects this country. Elections have consequences, and the first one is "The Buck Stops Here". 0bama insisted that former President Bush rush the original "Stimulus Package" in 2008, so guess who is responsible for that? Herr 0bama, that's who!



    The democratic house and senate are the ones who have created this debacle. They have been the party with the majorities for 80% of the past 40 years, raiding programs like Medicare, Social Security, and HUD to fund their pork projects. How else did you think that Dodd, Hoyer, Kennedy, Murtha, Pelosi, Schumer, Reid, Waxman and the other crooks get their sweetheart deals?Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?
    Well, the reactionary Republicans do tend to be detached from reality; however, that does not change the fact that nearly one year in, the Obama regime has done nothing whatsoever to competently address the multitude of issues which are the urgent business of government (including, most importantly, the economic collapse). Moreover, Obama has aggravated the various terrible and worsening economic, social and geopolitical crises. He's essentially declared war against Pakistan, ordered a Gorbachev- and LBJ-style escalation in Afghanistan, came out with a literally Nazi healthcare policy, tried to push a radical and insane environmentalist agenda, escalated the intrinsically fraudulent "bailout" of the Wall Street parasites, and on and on.
    you ever think Bush inherited the recession (that btw was getting better and showing signs of considerable improvement about 9 months before he left office).



    Let's go back in time. You remember the great growth we experienced in the 90's? You know how much of that was built on money that wasn't there? It was all borrowed. You see banks were told by the government to make loans easier for the poor to obtain. People the banks wouldn't normally loan to because people can't make the payments.



    Think about it. Where do you think this whole mess with the Real Estate market came from? It didn't spawn over night because of the recession. No. It was well over a decade in the making.



    So it was Bush who inherited a bad economy.



    So why do we blame Obama for our current situation? Because of history. History has shown what happens to a country when it gets heavily into debt, its economy is weak and then tries to save itself by printing more money and throwing it at the situation. It happened in Germany in 1932. Just type in "Hyperinflation" and you'll see what I'm talking about. The result is just the opposite effect. A near total collaspe of the economy.



    We are heavily in debt. Why is going to be debated by historians for decades to come, but the fact of the matter is we are in debt. Our economy is weak. And Obama's solution is to simply print more money. Well done.Why are republicans seemingly unaware that Obama inherited the current mess?
    The Dems in Congress caused the mess you are blaming on Bush. They shot down the warnings from the Bush Administration regarding Freddie Mac, and Fannie Mae. Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Chris Dodd, Chuck Schumer, all denied there was any problem. Basically, lied straight faced to the Senate Banking Committee.



    Obama has done nothing to improve the economy. He has only spent money our children will be paying on for decades to come. This mess was inherited by Obama, but it was inherited from the hands of his buddies in Congress.



    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHj8-HSi5…
    Bush is no longer president. Time to move on and hold Obama accountable for his own actions. People pointed the finger at Bush simply because of partisan politics. “If a lie is told long enough and loud enough, it becomes the truth.”



    Have Democrats ever heard that the buck stops here? Guess not.



    Talk about your tired Democrat play book … the Democrat Party, according to Talking Points Memo plans to call the Republicans the party of GWB and continue the blame Bush game.

    http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/…



    This strategy will go over as well as Obama’s policies have since he has become President. There is a reason why Obama’s and Democrat poll numbers have sunk. One year into the Obama Presidency and it is no longer about GWB. Certainly by 2010 no one wants to hear the blame game.



    No matter how the Democrats want to spin this, the 2010 midterms are going to be a referendum on Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. We the People will take care of matters in 2010 and create some real CHANGE the likes that has not been seen in years. o_O
    Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent so Obama could get his name in the history books and once he got it it dawned on him he had neither the ability's , skills or experience to deal with the problems facing this nation. That's when he decided everything was Bush's or someone , anyone else's fault. He got way more than what he bargained for didn't he?
    no. you're quite wrong.



    and here's the thing: obama spent nearly a Billion (with a B) dollars to GET the job, swearing up and down he was going to fix it and stop doing what Bush was doing because it Bush was all wrong...



    well, here it is and he did exactly what he claimed Bush was doing wrong, only he did it 4x more!



    don't blame us that the big word Obama campaigned on was "CHANGE". the word wasn't "MORE".
    Why are democrats seeminly unaware that THEY CAUSED the inherited mess and you can watch it come out of their mouths but you don't ever care to watch the video. you also fail to read the acts and bills that were passed by the dems to CAUSE the problem. You also fail to recognize that while everyone was doing well during Clinton he was setting everything up to fail...raiding medicare and medicaid to pay off teh budget and adding some of the social security to it. By forcing banks to allow loans to those that could not afford it. AND BOZO worked for ACORN and filed those lawsuits too.....



    You can read two bills that SHOW you libs are to blame and like the health care you REFUSED to listen and learn but did what you wanted because you COULD without anyone stopping you.





    The Repeal of the Glass Steagall Act during the Clinton administration led to all the fiascos that led to this recession. Both parties voted for it. The republicans wanted it for more risk taking and the democrats wanted it for getting housing for the poor and minorities. It just took that long before the price of housing went too high and there were no more sub prime mortgages to sell. No more capital to loan. The insured toxic swaps broke AIG which didn't have enough to cover the claims. It may have happened on Bush's watch but he had nothing to do with it. He warned Congress they better do something about it but they ignored him saying "everything was fine".



    WATCH THIS if you dare..it is the record and video of 2004 senate discussing this issue and how the dems said NO and refused to pull back the reins...



    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MGT_cSi7…



    Shocking Video Unearthed Democrats in their own words Covering up the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Scam that caused our Economic Crisis



    So yeah...all Clinton did was cheat and steal from other programs...set up the banks and have sex in the oval room.





    WAnt to try again? Why are dems jumping ship like drowning rats? 11 not running for re election and one jumped parties on dec 22 and another one threatening to in Jan.....



    Why did the world warn BOZO FOUR TIMES TO STOP SPENDING MONEY and he ignored it? (You can google that and read about that too.....)



    AND as promised by the world..which bozo ignored FOUR TIMES....yesterday CHINA shut off the money machine...no more loans. We cannot be trusted! So that 1 billion dollars a day is going to HURT isn't it?



    Let's see how you handle the one truth bozo promised last year...the deepest double dip recession of all time this next year!



    Where is his success in unemployment and why did the CBO WARN DEMS TO NOT PASS HEALTH CARE that would raise the debt and increase taxes...said it would decrease access so to medical care and 23 million not be covered? Why don't you listen to the CBO?



    When do you stop blaming conservatives and start blaming yourselves? Just like your village idiot the other day blaming AMERICANS for spending too much money and how dare we continue to use money like it was monopoly money? SINCE WHEN IS IT BAD for YOU AND ME to spend money and when does he FAIL TO RECOGNIZE that when GOVERNMENT abuses it and spends it like monopoly money IT IS BAD!



    The village idiot is ignorant and more stupid than the three stooges!
    Simple Obama has continued Bush's policy's only he is making it more wide spread. Spending even more money. Bush did bailouts. So is Obama. Bush enlarged the budget so did Obama. Obama is doing the same things Bush is only difference is he's spending even more money and is raising taxes.
    I AGREE........THE LAST YEAR.......BUSH SAT ON HIS DUFF IN OFFICE......



    ALL OF THE MEDIA THROUGHOUT THIS PRESIDENCY HAD A HATE FEST.......



    NOTHING HE COULD DO WAS RIGHT...........



    DONT YOU REMEMBER ???? DODD AND FRANK WERE IN CHARGE OF BANKING AND FANNIE MAE AND FREDDY MAC ???



    IT WAS THE DEMS BELIEF THAT ANYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO QUALIFY FOR A HOMELOAN EVEN IF THEY WERE NOT FINANCIALLY SOLVENT TO AFFORD ONE !!!!!!



    SO SOME OF THIS WAS THE DEMS FAULT............BUT LIKE A SENILE DEM.......YOU CANT ACCEPT THIS ???



    AT LEAST I CAN BLAME BUSH FOR SOME THINGS........



    BUT YOU HAVE A MENTAL PROBLEM IF YOU THINK THAT DEMS ARE COMPLETELY INNOCENT !!!!
    why do democrats fail to realize that the last 4 years of Bush's term in office was controlled by the Democrats in the house and senate? anything Bush tried to do was stalled by thier control.





    sounds like there are two sides to the senality
    Well, Obama has had a year to try to make some improvements, but it only seems to be going downhill, so, while he did inherit this mess, he doesn't seem to be trying to get it working again.
    What mess? The mess that started about 2 yrs ago after the democrats took over congress and started acting like savages?

    The republicans lost their way for about 6 yrs but even then they were a better choice than the democrats
    Why are Democrats unwilling to acknowledge that Obama and the Democrat Congress are throwing gasoline on the fire and calling the firefighters "racists" and "fear-mongers?"
    He inherited socialized health care? He inherited 10.2 % unemployment? He inherited a cabinet full of tax cheats and croks? Tell us more.....
    Current housing and financial mess



    planning of 9/11 for 7 plus years



    DOT COM crash



    all started with CLINTON......now, come again?
    Right, so he fixes everything by spending more money than any president ever has.

    Democrats are blood sucking non payers always willing spend other peoples money.
    Because 1/4 of Obama's term is over already.



    Unemployment is STILL rising. The so-called Stimulus has failed.
    Funny you we knew there was problems as early as 2006 as soon as Pelosi, Boxer, Reid, Frank and company started their war against America from the Senate and House of Representives.
    The messiah doesn't have to take the job. No body is forcing him so stop saying he inherited the mess.
    True, Obama did inherit the current Congress that would not put the brakes on the housing bubble.
    Obama quadrupled the mess.
    Well most of the Republican power brokers qualify for AARP so senility is definitely possible. I think it is very disturbing that Republicans are unwilling to take responsibility for the mistakes they made. That is the first step to keep from making those mistakes over and over again.



    It is unrealistic for anybody, left or right, to believe that eight to ten years of some really horrific mistakes can be fixed in six months, or twelve months for that matter.
    We know, but we will not admit it.



    Our goal is to derail Obama's Presidency, and make it so that no other African American will ever hold this office.



    With that said, I am sure you will forgive our selective memory.
    We don't take kindly to your type 'round here.



    Just kidding.



    I'm not sure why. I think it might be because they're trying to convince the party-line voters that Obama is evil so that they can win in the next election.
    They are perfectly aware of this. But they just pretend to be ignorant in order to smear and to demonize president Obama.
    Lack of education and a constant influx of misinformation from their god Fox non-News and their Jesus Rush Limbaugh.
