Uh-oh, Progressives aren't going to like this coming out into the light of day.

» Charles Gasparino - Big Government

...The fact of the matter is, when you strip away the name-calling and class warfare coming from the Obama administration, and when you ignore Wall Street’s gripes about the new financial reform legislation that will put a crimp in some of its profits, these two entities are far more aligned than meets the casual eye. They coexist to help each other—in an unholy alliance against the American taxpayer.

InformedConsent !!! ... Precisely !

A "Setback that just couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch of absolutely pitiful and clueless career politicians !

What on earth ever happened to the "Once Proud Old Democratic Party"?

It's as if it fell off the face of the planet and was some how replaced by the most pathetic crew of simpletons in the history of this nation !!!

Old G. Bush must get one helluva good laugh everytime he becomes aware of another exceedingly stupid action coming from this current crew of "DINO" J^%# Azzzzzzzes !!!

Thanks Y'all / Old Sgt. Lamar

Here's a good article that talks about Obama's campaign promises before he got elected and the reality that set in after he took office.

The Maestro/President | FINANCIAL SENSE

"Obama ran his campaign on "YES WE CAN..." Problem was that once he became the President and was briefed in the way things really were, he was told... "NO YOU CAN'T..."

Only to the point where he can destroy the middle class and the small business owner. There will be the billionares (B) and the political elite along with their playmates, and there will be the broadened disenfranchised who either have most of their efforts stripped from them via burdensome fees and taxation, or, the segment of society that is dependent upon the government for its sustinance.

I gotta ask......why would anyone set out to create a whole segment of society that is dependent on the govt for its sustenance?
What good does that do? Seriously?
