Newsflash: It was the Bush administration that "destroyed" this nation. Obama has been in office ONE MONTH. Get an education, please, before you and your kind destroy the nation even further.

Obama is on the wrong road people. Tax cuts to small business and real tax relief are the way to begin. BoBo's $8 a week tax cut is a joke. Give my employer a tax break so I can work please.
Small business has had tax cuts for years. It's done nothing.

McCain actually had nothing to say when he got back to Congress. I saw the clips and he sat there practically mute. Didn't McCain say that the economy was "fundamentally sound?"

Everybody knows what the consequences will be. How much longer do you keep someone on the job who willfully enacts destructive measures? The fireman, you'd not only fire, you'd also arrest. Why would you allow Obama continue another day?
Well I guess the real questions becomes this: Where were you, Eeeee when Bush was wasting trillions of dollars and costing us our economy? Please link us all to a previous thread on city-data denouncing Bush. After all, you are fair and balanced, right? Or perhaps the issue is you are fair and balanced.

I believe he did. His opinion didn't matter anyway. He needed a break from his losing battle so he used this for attention.

All this blather about Obama putting this country first, answer me this. Why is Obama spurning tried-and-true remedies for reviving an economy, namely, tax cuts for the job-creators? And why is he instead following the policy that has FAILED every single time it's been tried, of expanding government in the face of economic downturn?

I love that comment about presidential ratings. Liberal historians and liberal pollsters always tickle my funnybone. Of course hacks like Doris Kearns Goodwin are going to trash the Republicans and elevate Democrats. Bill Clinton 15th??? How many freaking achievements did that lying philandering bastard have in his pathetic 8 year reign? All he did was chase chubby interns, coddle terrorists thereby setting the table for 9-11, and try everything in his power to thwart the fabulous GOP Congress that launched the DOW on its meteoric 12-year climb that ended when the damn Democrats got back in control. The IMPEACHED Clinton did absolutely nothing except disgrace his office
Hey Limbaugh, the only thing Clinton did poorly was sneaking around. The poor things he did was have a very low unemployment rate,great relations and free trade with many countries,and reasonably priced gas and fuel oil. What George W did was put the unemployment rate over 10%, had gas over $4/gallon,lied about abortion years ago and claims to be a right to lifer,killed our foreign trade,and never moderated the banks,etc,etc,etc. Do you know why cable rates go up constantly? Because they are unregulated but that changes every so often and thats what are country needs to be monitored.You actually blamed 9/11 on Clinton! The whole world knew how much of an idiot "W" was and they confirmed it that day when he sat on his butt after being told the first tower was hit.
Do you ever watch Seinfeld? Well if you do then you know George Costanta played by Jason Alexander.Well George is a screw up so one day he decides to throw all his ideals out the window and do the opposite! Guess what? He hooks up with a woman and gets a job. Now if Obama wants to succeed all he has to do is outline EVERYTHING that "W" did and do the OPPOSITE!!!!

It doesn't matter what anyone comes up with. You're just going to label him a "loonie" or "Gomer".

People shouldn't waste their time trying to debate with you. I know I won't anymore.

I'm finding it out, all right, Snake.

I used to wonder how so many suckers could have goine for Obama. After reading posts in here for a week, I'm beginning to understand it.

These people can't possibly have good jobs or retirement accounts or stocks and still think this ignoramus is doing a good job.
