Maybe investor logic goes something like this: gee, we have billions we don't have any use for, so let's give them to someone who might return at least some of it one day
Agreed. The far-left is ashamed of America and everything that this country great.
during the obama -hillary primaries i started reading a blog and read this, which i found interesting:
Since the late sixties, The Democratic notion of Freedom of Speech, translates into uncritical support for anything involving nudity and obscenity. The party’s ideas about Democratization amount to dropping a few bombs on Serbia and then jumping ship, or funneling billions of dollars into the pockets of Russian oligarchs, and then harping on about Putin when he tries to redress the balance in favor of the Russian people. Civil Rights in the Democratic sense mean abrogation of American Federalism. As the latest threats by select Californian interests groups to legally filibuster the will of the people of California on Proposition 8 demonstrate, Democrats are a party who consistently cares little for actual democratic principles, or the voice of regular Americans.
Democrats make the impression that they will side with anything that denigrates America’s Western Tradition, and historical Values. At its core, it is a party of several large victim groups with consistent anti-social, anti-middle class , anti-American, anti-Western platforms; e.g. exemplified in the uniquely Democratic ability to defend radical Islamists, terrorist, and Jihadists, without so much as batting an eye for the women, minorities, and innocent civilians who are their main victims.
For those of us who voted Clinton in the Democratic Primaries, all of this was a Democratic heritage we unambiguously rejected, but a heritage which the Obama Revolution has unequivocally embraced.

Never in his life has Obama referred to himself as an American. (end-from stop obama blog)
while that assessment may be a little harsh, i think there is a lot of truth to it.
i started thinking about the change in the democratic party. the democrats, under kennedy particularly, expressed great pride in the US, great pride in the citizens, and robert kennedy actually fought teamster/union corruption.
they never called americans lazy or apologized for us because they never felt they needed to!
i think there is a reason that the "new" democratic party embraces the illegals and wants them here, even though many don't contribute much to the US, driving down wages and often sending their money home to "their own country". (as i posted earlier today mexico's government debt to GDP is less than half of the united states-and there is a reason for that).
of course, the damage that the republicans have done by leaving conservatism has been readily apparent with the shift to the neocon movement, and the damage that has done to our country.
Because they prefer to share their wealth rather than horde it at the top.
You mean SPEND the wealth, into oblivion, don't you?
How's that sharing going lately?
See, when you continue to make promises to your people even though you have no way to pay for all the promises...makes people mad.
And then when the NECESSARY cutting of government spending happens, they get even madder, don't they? They are losing all their "free" goodies, right?
Except those goodies never were "free", where they?
What the EU is going through right now should be and most likely IS a lesson for all Americans of what happens to the "wealth" when radical socialist/liberal policies are at work.

promises like repealing healthcare and reducing spending... even though its repealing a conservative health care platform written by the heritage foundation as well spending and tax cutting us into oblivion the way conservatives do?

Sorry, but the dems/obama OWN obamacare, lock, stock and barrel.
No escaping that FACT.
They paid in 2010, they hopefully will pay in 2012 for what they did to this country when they pushed this massive crap sandwich down our throats.

We'll own it. But for Romney and Newt to disown it is a joke. They spent all of 2006 singing the praises of RomneyCare. They LOVED mandates and called it personal responsibility. That is all on video - hours and hours of it. So we'll own it and remind them every day that this was originally the Republican health care plan. Oh and what is the Republican health care plan now? Nothing.
