He's expanded NAFTA and has created a new and very large work visa program for foreigners who want to work here while the unemployment rates grow larger for certain sectors of the American people.

He doesn't have any good plan.
He may not have any good plan but he's got the Pied Piper of Arkansas. And we've seen the fools who follow him.

It will end badly because of his hate filled actions,as well as his hate filled fellow travelers(like yourself).By end badly I mean he will end up extremely unpopular,whether in January 2013 or January 2017. It's not a good omen for a 2nd term when you are below 50% approval. Look at GW Bush. Look at Truman.

Pathetic little non-thinking critters.

Sure, politicians gave them the keys to the economy but it was bad decisions by business men who did the deed.
No, it was the community reinvestment act that allowed anyone to buy a house they could not afford in the first place. Having two million people not even paying the first mortgage payment would tell you that.

The sad truth.

The sheer accuracy of this post will make it invisible to most of the partisan fools on this forum. More and more I think it's a waste of effort to get through to them.

But elections do have consequences ... if it weren't for 2000 and 2004, we wouldn't have Alito or Roberts, and thus we wouldn't have Citizens United -- the worst Supreme Court decision of the modern era, and the death knell for what remained of our democratic republic.
