i can't imagine how anyone could believe that obama's economic plan is even going to work in the current economic climate. you have a failing economy and increasing taxation will not work!
His plans will only makes things worse. Businesses need money to survive and he wants to take money away from them.
He will cause massive layoffs and hours will be cut. Along with many businesses who are on the brink will then collapse under his plans.
His plans are worse then many think.
His dirty little fingers are all over the mortgage problems today, his lawsuit against banks to force bad loans to people with terrible credit just proves it.
And how do you think we are going to pay for the 700billion bailout?
Is the money just going to fly out of the sky?
What do you think has to happen to taxes if EITHER party wins???
Or are we just going to use the same credit card that Ronald Reagan used?
The surplus that clinton got us is gone, wipe out under bush, and Bush brings us deficit, and more deficit, and if McBush is president, you can expect a whole lot more wars to propel the deficit into the stratosphere.
Judging from the panic on these forums and the reports I've heard that Dems are mad at Dean for not vetting Obama properly, I think that we're going to have some pretty upset Dems.
You just don't know what panic is. THIS is panic...

If McCain had chosen an intelligent, viable running mate and addressed the issues at hand...then yes, I would be concerned for the Democrats right now, but that's not what's going on.
The Republicans are realizing their mistake in choosing Sarah Palin and are freaking out!
Hence all the baseless mud-slinging.
Can't wait for the debate tonight.
Wonder if McCain can look Obama in the eyes...
You call Palin unintelligent and then attempt to act above the matter by calling out "baseless mud-slinging" by the other side. That is priceless.
My question is why did it take until now to get this information out to the public. Those of us that research for ourselves knew most of it, but he genernal public does not do their homework and only watch the Obama loving media, so they got nothing on this and still aren't getting much. The New York Times just now gets around to reporting on it? This election has been a farce from day one. Something very unsettling about this push to get Obama elected regardless.
you mean George Bush' credit card don't you?
And both sides voted for the bailout
No, I meant RR's credit card.
Yes, I know both sides voted for the bailout (a necessary evil). I was responding to the poster who claimed that Obama's economic plan would fail.
Really? I thought the issues were the economy, security, healthcare, energy . . .
OK, How does he pay for it ???
