I used to live in Minnesota, a Liberal state and I am so glad I left, MN state taxes are just insane, I was basically working my ass off to support a welfare/nanny state. I made the move to Iowa and I like my life here, although I think this state could be a bit more Conservative.
I travelled to Oklahoma this last weekend and I feel like I probably found my place, very Conservative state, good old American values, very patriotic and most Okies would rather die than take a government handout, also they don't put up with Liberal BS down there. I was raised in a very Liberal household and It seems like I have become more Conservative, I don't see anything wrong with finally realizing that Liberalism sucks
May want to try the trailer parks out there. They have plenty of rootin' tootin' republicans for you

I always have to ask. Please explain the highlighted statements
Some businesses are probably afraid to hire not knowing what's coming next for them with this administration. Will their healthcare costs go up? Will their utility rates rise? Will the fuel for transporting their goods go up? How will changes in the financial industry impact them? How will environmental or other regulations impact them? How will the impact of this administration's policies made directly on their customers impact their business (i.e., no money to afford their product/service)? Will they have to unionize? How does the government plan to control their industry, next?
Quality of promised DOES COUNT as so far he has kept the easy cheesy promises and FAILED us on the most important ones.
Plain and simple he has FAILED US miserably and everyone knows it.
Only those who are racist die hard left winger rabid kool-aid party members still support a person who has proven that he cannot handle this job and has made massive mistakes and bad decisions over and over again.
Only a fool would admit they still support him, after all even the dems in congress are running from him like he is toxic waste.
Your hatred for Obama and his family is truly unhealthy. By the way he didn't promise you anything. You hated him the day you saw him.
Come now liberal/socialists, lets be honest, Obama has out righted lied and/or been a nieve, inexperienced fool, people said he was.
"On the day of my election, I will bring the troops home from Iraq."
Uh, were still waiting.
"Health Care Reform will not cost anyone in America, a single, thin dime."
Uh, well, that is false and has been proved to be false. Wait, no, A LIE and he knew it.
"My government will be transparent."
Gee, a reform bill was passed, which gave top executives money, without holding them accountable. Obama was the NUMBER TWO recepient of money from the bank.
"Before I sign any bill, the people will have 5 days to review it, via the internet, before I sign it."
Hasn't happened, NOT ONCE.
You fools voted in a liar. A nieve idiot and a socialist. Live with it.
He doesnt need your vote. He didnt need in 08. He want need it in 2012
I was thinking, it is going to be 2 years since Mr Obama was elected and so far he has not done anything or accomplished anything significant in my opinion. Maybe some see Obamacare as an "accomplishment" but the company I am working for as a temporary contractor had to pay out $150 million dollars due to Obamacare and have just instituted a hiring freeze. I could work as hard as I can for the next two years of my contract but I have no hopes of getting hired on.
I thought about purchasing a home but I am not even able to find a permanent job, I feel so stuck and I feel like 2012 will be here soon and we will still be dealing with this ridiculous employment situation.
Like I was explaining to my Liberal family members, any Republican candidate promising jobs will be elected by a landslide, unfortunately Mr Obama has not done anything that would make me want him to stay in the White House for another 4 years, I think, anybody who can create good jobs will have my vote in 2012.
I feel your pain. I see dozens of job ads. Every single one of them wants to know what race I am before they interview me. Obama's fault? Is a Republican candidate who promises more job ads in the paper going to get my vote? Not unless he can also guarantee me that on 1/20/2012 racism and employment related (to make it easy) race discrimination ends. For good. Even then I might be skeptical, but I think I could pull the trigger for a... a... no. No, I don't think I could. Unlike yourself I am aware that issues like the employment situation are bigger than one man (or woman). No candidate who promises jobs in 2012 is to be believed, regardless of party affiliation. I can still support Obama because I never expected that he could keep all his campaign promises. Obama has succeeded in reducing much of the international ire that was directed at the previous administration because of its extreme 'Bully Boy America' stance. For that alone Obama deserves re-election. I was underemployed before Obama and I remain thus. Personal net gain/loss= 0. The country OTOH now has articulate, charismatic, and passionate leadership for the first time in recent memory. National net/gain= priceless. Obama knows his job. Obama's job isn't to give you or me a job. Obama's job is to keep the country on point. It isn't an easy job because of the fractious and ornery makeup of this constituency. When Joe Torre was let go, did you say "what a bum, good riddance."? Maybe, but you would have been a hypocrite or fool, because whatever else it takes, it takes real aptitude to get results from such a mixed team of superstars and regular talent like the Yankee's and anyone who can not only manage them but get pennants out of them, season upon season, has to have a little something on the ball. Obama is producing, just not producing in the areas that matter most to you. I get that. But get this: it isn't all about you. Or me.
I condemn them who promote a fraudulent global econmoy by flying a false banner of capitalism when all it really is global Marxist/Fascist Elitism robbing the planet to subdue us all to their one world order... global governance tyranny....
Jobs? Where? What stimulous?
Up to 90% of the people in this part of NY are receiving some sort of gov't subsidies just to keep a roof over their heads after losing their civilian jobs and now gov't workers are getting laid off as they raise taxes and keep bringing in more Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Dominicans, Cubans...etc. and giving them everything free including you and your kids future.... Ever hear of bankrupt? Third world socialized ghettos? What do you think is going to happen to all the people dependent on gov't checks or getting gov't free handouts when the economy collapses?
Who else should people support but the president? It is not a football match where either side can win, at least until the next election he is the president of all Americans.
