My friends, give us 4 years to clean up our mess, please!

See we almost got Gustav right.

Give us 4 more years and we'll clean up Iraq

Give us 4 more years and we'll get the surplus back.

Give us 4 more years and we'll get the economy back to 1999.

Give us 4 more years and we'll find bin Laden.

Give us 4 more years and we'll finally get the mess we created cleaned up, we promise.

Change you can believe in.

First of all, it's Gustav. Secondly, I believe you are plagiarizing NOLA Mayor Ray Nagin when he was speaking of it:

"We can't afford to screw it up this time."

Yeah. Obama: Keep the Change.

Give us 4 more years to create more investment scams.
Give us 4 more years to send jobs to Asia.
Give us 4 more years to line the pockets of big oil, at YOUR expense!
Give us 4 more years to increase health care and make insurance companies richer!
Give us 4 more years to let the infrastructure falter.
Give us 4 more years to rid America of all middle income jobs.
Give us 4 more years to employ all illegals at minimum wages.
Give us 4 more years to tax you while sending anchor babies to school.
Give us 4 more years to put together the American Union. Viva Camexus!

Thanks for the spelling correction, but one cannot plagiarize a sentence whose construction or intent is so dissimilar.

There is a clear difference in meaning between, "We can't afford to screw up..." and a promise not to.

As for keeping the change? We hope to afford you the opportunity to not only keep the change, but also to use it for something other than staving off foreclosure, sending your children to college, and purchasing clean renewable energy. So on behalf of Obama, you are welcome.

It was merely tongue in cheek. Boy, you libs sure can dish it out, but you can't take much, can ya?

If you think Obama could EVER do any of the things you think he'll do, better check the approval rating of congress right now. They promised the same things. LOL!

Good luck with that.
