Tell South Korea to eliminate tariffs on our products or we pull out our troops.

Round up and deport illegals. Few are pickers, most are doing what in other parts of the country the local residents are doing.

Eliminate Obama care. No one wants to higher anyone new rules and regulations keep coming out.

What are YOU doing to create jobs? You seem to keep wanting someone to do it for you. Remember jobs are a result, not a goal. Otherwise we pay $278,000 for each one.
Hey, I'm thinking of taking the Teabaggers attitude: I got mine (job, health insurance, home, car) screw everyone else that does not have what I have.

EVerything else when fall into place once the bum is removed. All big business is waiting for is for the corrupt socialist in the WH to get his miserable butt kicked out of town.
After he is gone, the country can finally begin to recover... It will be a new world overnight........
Hmmm, ok what was the excuse BEFORE he took office?

So the mess that we are in now was due to lack of government invention regarding the Wall St brokers shorting stocks, the bankers stealing money from minorities using predatory lending practices, top government workers such as Greenspan, Summers and Cheney among others going back and forth between private and goverment positions molding rules in their favor or is it because there was too much? This was a nice thought when Bush and company wittled away many of our rights through fear while EXPANDING the government with additional agencies. I guess that you don't realize that in the last 10 years the government has been rather lax in enforcing the protection of it's people, and now you what them to give up what little control that they think that they have now? It makes no sense. If the government had some balls to regulate like they were suppose to do we would not be in this mess in the first place.

The Depression Gods were trying to get a head start. Trying to get the Depression fully going, before Obama could come in and stop it. They were too late and could only muster a massive Recession.

I guess poeple do not realize by putting more money in the hands of the already rich does not make them create more jobs, it just makes them wealthier! The ones that can create jobs CHOOSE to do it overseas where the labor is cheap and they can hide more money offshore. So tell me what incentive do they have to create jobs here in this country?

That's the Big Lie. Taxing the top 2% would cost jobs. I can understand why the GOP continually tells that lie, it is the top 2% they work for. What I don't understand is why so many seem to think the lie is true, even if it is repeated to them over and over and over ....

Do you want to know what is funny? Congressmen/Senators (1st termers) earn 183,500 a year so why are we paying for their healthcare? they should be paying for it themselves like the rest of the government employees. Another thing that I thought was strange, why would they (politicians) fight to prevent tax increases? It would go against their own best interest since over 44% of them are millionaires in the first place!

Report: 237 millionaires in Congress

So why in the world do these naive people think that they are fighting for tax cuts for the rich on the behalf of the people?

Crack (oops I meant Fox news)......it is a helluva drug!

There are lies coming from both sides, but we don't hear Congress people spreading the lie that they get free Healthcare, fact it, they do not. But you do hear Congress people spreading the lie that lower taxes, creates jobs, it doesn't to any significant extent.
