My issue is when you start to regular banks you mess with the entire cycle of business BUT we should also let them fail if they mess up. I know my bank had ZERO issues because they did not take risks so there was no need to bail them out. If a business can not run itself effectively they should fail.
I have two issues with his speech. First he needs to stop placing blame on the past. Second, he needs to mean it about working with Repubs because up until now he has not. The Dems have had closed door deals and it is very hard to give your ideas when you are on the other side of the door.
If he follows through on even 5 of the things he said I will praise him from the roof tops. I don't want him to fail because that means our country fails and we look weak and stupid to the rest of the world not something I want.
That is what bugs me about him, he can still place the blame on we know who, but i never hear him, take blame for the things that he has done wrong. He constantly brings that up, what he inherited. He has a funny way of showing the Repubs, he really wants them to work with them, when there has been backroom deals, closed door sessions, he has got to mean what he says, not just talk. I to truly deep down do not want him to fail, cause that means We as a Country have failed. And the rest of the world will look down upon us. I want him to make good on his Promises, and deliver, instead of giving us some good one liners.
I couldn't stand looking at Biden in the background with his fake ass "caring" smile either. Made me want to puke... and Pelosi... ugh, thats another story.
They really should move them to the side or something. I was distracted by Biden itching his scalp and noticed they
both blink a lot
Yep. Obama seemed to try to come out smelling like a rose, while dumping on everyone else in Washington. In his speeches, it is always about "him", never about the American people.
That's our Boy, NOT, always seems to come out smelling like a ROSE. He seemed to have dumped on everyone in Washington tonight. When will he start to accept some of this blame.
He gives a good speech. I acknowledge that. But I thought the substance was hollow. Maybe i'm just Obama-fatigued.
I agree with you, he can give a good speech, with good words, we want to hear. That is not the issue! Can and will he deliver, what he preaches. Perhaps it was too little to late, and why! I think the Dems, are shaking in there own skin. They are sacred, after Mass. He needs to accept the mess that we are in, stop blaming others, and deal with what is at hand, our Mess. He is almost to believable. And look where that has gotten him in the past.
Obama does speak well I'll give the guy that, but I have yet to see real, effective results,
Then you haven't been paying attention.
Quote:
While on the campaign trail, Barack Obama made hundreds of promises. And throughout the president's first year in office, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Web site PolitiFact has tracked each one of those commitments.
Just before Obama took office, PolitiFact combed through campaign documents, speeches and debate transcripts to see what promises he had made. They found more than 500 individual promises and put each of them into a database to be monitored closely.
They found 91 promises have been fulfilled, 33 compromised on, 87 stalled and 14 broken. The remaining promises are designated as being "in the works."
jumped up to give a standing ovation anytime your president uttered a multi-syllabic word.
At least the President is intelligent and articulate enough to use and understand what a multi-syllabic word is.
