How's that CA liberalism treating you chief! Do you want such idiocy infecting the entire nation? I spent almost a year previous living in San Jose and your moronic liberalism is a sure recipe for absolute disaster.

So, wanna argue with me any more? Fool. Keep paying for those Mexicans to have their children here. Keep paying for all of the social services.

Just how stupid can you be?

I live in Alaska. No sales or income tax No invasion of illegals. My money is my own. CA residents can't even begin to make an argument. How's it feel dip**** having a significant portion of your paycheck go to support illegal immigrants?

Your blind Hatred of Obama is showing...
Those 62% are either Dumbocrats (who are only backing their party's idiot President) or dumb people who voted for the fraud fool Obama that have no clue about the economy. In fact, most of Obama's supporters are like
this stupid woman

Another characteristic of oppressive socialist societies is the banning of material that questions its infinite wisdom.

Thanks for proving my point.

lamexican,

Don't get too upset by the rantings of the extreme right - they hate Obama - and always will - they cannot be reasoned with.

Take comfort in the fact that they are becoming more and more marginalized as time goes by, and that their voices only really carry weight on the Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity radio talk shows...

The rest of the country pretty much ignores them.

Hate Obama? What are you, psychic? I don't hate Obama and you can quit with the theatrics.. I don't like Obama's policy but I don't hate Obama as you seem prescribe to anyone that disagrees with you or your loving adoration of a human being, Obama. You fit the description of an "Obama fan"... makes little sense in what you post or continue to post... so get off your rantings or perhaps our "hersey" that Obama is just another guy making the same mistakes past presidents have done.. but that wouldn't fit in your Obama religion would it? Apparently, you think too highly of yourself and your ARROGANCE shows... don't believe me? Why don't you google "poll stimulus bill work" and see HOW MANY polls show that people don't believe it to work... oh that's right, I shouldn't create doubt in your religion, your mind can't accept it...

So Obama wants to follow the test market called Kalifornia, hmmm, how do we think this will work out? Dunno, maybe IOU's issued for your tax return?

I'm an independent who did not vote for George (the most liberal republican) Bush nor Barry (the chosen one) Obama.
I think Obama's plan (actually Pelosi and Reed's) is going to drive us into the ground.
As for the comment "at least he's doing something"... How silly can you get? Sure, he's doing something even if it's totally WRONG and placing my child and his children in debt up to their eyeballs before they even have a say in the matter!
God forbid they should CUT BACK government, no, the "progressives" need to have the momma pig roll over so they can all suckle off the "teats" of government until they suck her dry and kill her.
More giveaways, more social programs,more freebies showered upon the huddled masses like some big money pinata was just popped open.
And now another $410 billion?
I think the best thing that can happen now is China refuses to buy anymore of our worthless paper and we just fail and get it over with!

Bluefly,

People should NOT look up the WORD socialist. They SHOULD read The Capital. Only by reading Marx and Engels can one understand socialism. And yes, with this knowledge, it is obvious that BOTH Republicans and Democrats are indeed socialists.

It is amusing that the defenders of the enemies of freedom (read Amerikan Godvernment) look at socialism and communism as completely different things. Or that they see socialism as any particular static framework.

Regardless of what Katie Couric, NBC, or your college teacher would have you believe, socialism is simply any stage of transition between capitalism and communism. Communism is simply the final stage of socialism fully realized.

To end, read the source of the sinister theory, not the accepted translation fostered by its supporters both open and secretive alike.

Another "genius" that can shed some light on earlier stupid theories is Plato. The Republic is another excellent example of an elitist defining what is "right" and "just" for all of mankind.

Yes, Obama has a high favorable rating.

However, it was pointed out Sunday on a news show,the problem Obama faces is the stimulus plan will take awhile to show a noticeable difference.

Americans are NOT patient people when it comes to war or a recession.

If results are not seen within 4 months, people will question the wisdom of borrowing trillions $$$$$$$$$ and his favorable ratings will drop.

Sadly, this is not the 1930's and 1940's anymore.

The American people have no patience today.

IF it makes a difference and the verdict is still out on that but general opinion at this time is it won't.
As for no patience, not much for critical thinking anymore either, they'll following anyone holding a piece of pie in front of 'em (as long as it's free of course)...

Reminiscent of the Democrats' attitude toward Iraq.

Funny how quiet they are now about Iraq, though -- and how terrified they are that Obama looks to be going the same way with Afghanistan, because everyone knows that that war will belong to Mr. Obama, lock-stock-and-barrel.

Polls are funny things. They have a way of changing. One thing that never changes, though, is partisanship and its evil partner, payback.
