RealClearPolitics - Video - MTV Town Hall Questioner To Obama: "Why Should We Still Support You?"

Even more shocking - greatest fear? Obama's reelection!

RealClearPolitics - Video - Obama On Being Labeled A "Communist": "We've Got To Stop The Name Calling"

Listen to his answer - from the man who just got done attacking the CoC.

"We've got to stop the name calling".

Incredible - from the petulant little man who has waged a war of words with business, individuals, corporations and organizations.

[MOD CUT] I can say I am 'obsessed' with Obama.

Obsessed with getting him out of office as soon as possible, obsessed with the way he is destroying our country, obsessed with the way he is corrupt and his supporters want to turn a blind eye to it, obsessed with his lack of experience when we are in such a global mess, obsessed with his scary obsession for socialism, obsessed with his 'redistribution of wealth' ideas.....

I could list many more obsessions but will stop at that. I am HOPEFUL the end to the Obamanation will end soon!

There is a double standard for the Obama's.


He talks about things needs to be more affordable and that our health insurance cant bankrupt us. What does he think higher taxes to pay for all these entitlements will do to us?

His rhetoric is truly unbelievable, especially after the attacks on business, industry and individuals he has initiated.

They must be completely tone deaf in the WH. Why does he think business considers him anti-business?

He attacks the very people he NEEDS to save his sorry butt.

Those were young voters, right? Did anyone tell Obama that they and their recent college grad friends can't find jobs, and ask him why he hasn't focused on the economy and jobs for the past 21 months? And why nearly $1 trillion in stimulus was wasted on pork, etc., and now added to the national debt, most likely forcing higher taxes on them while they're trying to raise families?

At least the young and easily swayed will have learned an important lesson. You have to look beyond the slickly marketed 'product' and insincere campaign promises. Look instead at the candidate's past and experience.

Sadly, for many of the youth of America... they foolishly bought a pig in a poke.

Default The most clueless aspect

The most clueless aspect of the Obama program is the unrelenting bashing of entrepreneurs and business. To hire a person is an act of faith, of hope, of optimism--it is not helpful to have Mr. Entitlement Mentality beating you about the head and teaching people that they are owed a good living from those evil greedy businesspeople.

And scheming up some new lottery-like giveaway for a tiny fraction of businesses does not change anything: Obama understands less about America's culture of entrepreneurship than any president in all of history.

Read the following article. It's a pretty basic explanation of how corporate ownership works, but you'll get the idea:

"This shift of business ownership from rich people to working people may be the greatest economic transformation since the Industrial Revolution.
...So what does all this mean? Well, for starters, it should lead to an end of complaints about the profits of corporations and allegations about 'greedy corporations.' After all, much of that profit now goes toward the current and future retirement incomes of working people."
Business Ownership & Labor Day

Everyone who contributes to or benefits from a 401k, pension fund, mutual fund, annuity, or whole life insurance policy is a corporate owner, en masse.

An anti-business Obama is an anti-jobs and an anti-retirement Obama. That's a very dumb position considering the federal government does not have enough money to support our population and their retirement on its own.
