This does not describe ANY "typical" Florida Obama supporters I know. And I know quite a few

I do, however, agree with you that there are people who know nothing about which they speak. They are the ones that make blatantly ignorant claims/statements.

Heck, I would fully support having to have an IQ test before taking out a mortgage, or having children, or even voting (which would clear out stupidity on both parties) but that wouldn't be right would it? Maybe right to me, but not right to impose on others.

The bailout was a bad idea but bailing out anyone who tried to play the system is not the answer. There used to be a test to get a mortgage, it was called qualifying but people like barney frank, chris dodd to name a few did away with it.

I knew the gubmint was not serious about solving the banking problem when they didn't change the reasons we got into it. They did the only thing they know how to do and that's through more money at it and hope for the best. When it doesn't work, they tell us how the other party screwed it up. And people are praying for the day they take over our healthcare.

Exxon is a great example to follow. They manage to make record proffit even as oil/barrel reaches record high. Everyone should be like Exxon and take control of their life.

Considering under Clinton there WAS NO tax cut and yet we still had more money. Why?

1. We weren't in 2 wars.
2. We where giving big companies tax cuts to ship good jobs overseas
3. We didn't let price of oil get out of control

So the answer is yes. It is Bush's fault. Bush, like McCain, does not have the ability to understand an issue to act wisely and for the long term. They just listen to their special interest lobbyist advisors. The special interest line their pockets while we reap the consequences down the line (see $/barrel oil and TRILLON $$ bailout)

What about the black man who spit on the elderly lady in Orlando.

When someone come to her rescue what did they do, spit on him to.

These morons should not be allowed to vote.

When Obama loses this election it will end the dem partys control and Obamas career will be over.

All because he was finally exposed and his followers who act like total idiots.

So all those Wall Street bankers that BOTH Republicans and Democrats gave a 800 Billion dollar hand out to are ALL Obama supporters?


I think you'll find that's not true.
