[LauraC]

1. I am okay with the President taking over the Internet in an emergency.
2. I am okay with the President bailing out General Motors and my neighbor who bought a house he couldn't afford.
3. I am okay with the President helping my neighbor pay for his new car with my tax dollars in Cash For Clunkers because it helps the environment...or the American economy...I can't remember which but both are important.
4. I am okay with the President's proposed cuts to Medicare and treatment plan based on number of years a person has left to live.
5. I am okay with the President increasing energy costs plus all costs passed down to me from businesses under cap and trade.
6. I am okay with the President's FCC Diversity Czar's media reform ideas to 100% tax a talk radio station's operating budget in order to fund the competition if it puts talk radio out of business.
7. I'm a federal employee and I'm in favor of the President's plan to give federal employees a 2 percent pay increase.
8. I am in favor of snitching to the White House because it's the right thing to do when I read something on the Internet or hear something in casual conversation that's just wrong.

10. I am okay with the President not giving the swine flu vaccine to people over 64 who have health conditions associated with higher risk of medical complications from influenza.
10. I am in favor of thousands of acres of California farming land being unfarmable/scorched if it protects the three-inch long delta smelt.
11. I am okay with the President speaking directly to young students to tell them how they can help the President's programs and how they can teach mom and dad about why it's so important for them to complete the census.
12. I am okay with the President having 44 czars who do not have to pass the smell test of Congress.
13. I am okay with the President telling me what food I can put in my mouth, what temperature my thermostat should be set on, when I can turn on my dishwasher, how much of a bonus I can get even if my company didn't get any federal money, what medical treatment I can have and what car I should buy.
14. I'm in favor of the President making rich guys, like the boss that employs me...uh, used to employ me, pay more taxes.
15. I am okay with all of these things if my President is Sarah Palin or Mitt Romney.

10. I am okay with the President not giving the swine flu vaccine to people over 64 who have health conditions associated with higher risk of medical complications from influenza. I dont think anyone should get it but should be a individual choice
10. I am in favor of thousands of acres of California farming land being unfarmable/scorched if it protects the three-inch long delta smelt. Farm it if its privately owned
11. I am okay with the President speaking directly to young students to tell them how they can help the President's programs and how they can teach mom and dad about why it's so important for them to complete the census. Never
12. I am okay with the President having 44 czars who do not have to pass the smell test of Congress. This is washington
13.

When hell freezes over or when socialist democrats run the house and senate and whitehouse.
14. I'm in favor of the President making rich guys, like the boss that employs me...uh, used to employ me, pay more taxes. Tax nobody
15. I am okay with all of these things if my President is Sarah Palin or Mitt Romney. Mitt and Sarah would never be my president nor should a president have this power. By the way all things listed above comes from the congress first, the president just has his agenda. TO answer the question if my president no matter what his name or party believe this he should be removed from office.

This is a hard one because many people are just on the computer and do not have a radio or TV on so they would never know what was happening. Like during 9/11 if you were on line in your email and had no TV on or Radio you would have no clue. Soooooo with that being said I would be ok if they did that alert thing, NOT taking control.
2. I am okay with the President bailing out General Motors and my neighbor who bought a house he couldn't afford. NO!
3. I am okay with the President helping my neighbor pay for his new car with my tax dollars in Cash For Clunkers because it helps the environment...or the American economy...I can't remember which but both are important. NO!
4. I am okay with the President's proposed cuts to Medicare and treatment plan based on number of years a person has left to live. Ummmm NO!
5. I am okay with the President increasing energy costs plus all costs passed down to me from businesses under cap and trade. NO!
6. I am okay with the President's FCC Diversity Czar's media reform ideas to 100% tax a talk radio station's operating budget in order to fund the competition if it puts talk radio out of business. NO!
7. I'm a federal employee and I'm in favor of the President's plan to give federal employees a 2 percent pay increase. Well I am not a federal employee but for me to answer I would have to know how many increases and the amount they have had over the past year.
8. I am in favor of snitching to the White House because it's the right thing to do when I read something on the Internet or hear something in casual conversation that's just wrong. NO!
9. I'm in favor of giving the government my personal medical records because the president says not to worry about it. NO!

10. I am in favor of thousands of acres of California farming land being unfarmable/scorched if it protects the three-inch long delta smelt. Sorry can not answer since I am not aware of this issue.
11. I am okay with the President speaking directly to young students to tell them how they can help the President's programs and how they can teach mom and dad about why it's so important for them to complete the census. If this is the school thing, I asked my kids school if they were going to have this and they did not know anything about it.
12. I am okay with the President having 44 czars who do not have to pass the smell test of Congress. All Presidents have "czars" but the amount he has does concern me.
13. I am okay with the President telling me what food I can put in my mouth, what temperature my thermostat should be set on, when I can turn on my dishwasher, how much of a bonus I can get even if my company didn't get any federal money, what medical treatment I can have and what car I should buy. Please explain because I have not heard about any of this.
14. I'm in favor of the President making rich guys, like the boss that employs me...uh, used to employ me, pay more taxes. Huh? Makes no sense, please explain.
15. I am okay with all of these things if my President is Sarah Palin or Mitt Romney. WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now why did you have to do that? It was a good post with some thought provoking questions and you had to blow it. You just totally screwed with any creditability you might have had!

Could have been a good thread.
