I suppose you'll start a poll about it now.

I think he'd heard of the Veto Pen...he just didn't know what a pen was for.

Are you serious? Quit listening to Limduh and Insanity for all of your "news".

Also, the way Bush didn't react, when the Dixie Chicks slammed him about the war, played a part in almost costing the Dixie Chicks their careers.
He could have asked (not forced) the radio stations to chill and not boycott their music.

“But,” Obama continued, “let’s not play games and pretend that the reason [for the deficit] is because of the Recovery Act.”
Well, Obama budgets are estimated to cause $9.3 trillion in federal deficits between 2010 and 2019 and increasing our deficit to $1.8 trillion in 2009.

The only one playing games is Obama. He has yet to fufill his promise of to" go through our federal budget – page by page, line by line – eliminating those programs we don’t need, and insisting that those we do operate in a sensible cost-effective way."

The best he has done is ordered his cabinet to eliminate $100 million.

Rush the stage? My, your theatrics mimic those of John Boehner...

He'll get to it. But we have bigger problems right now. Budget deficits are not that bad, and are much further down the list of priorities.

That's why the teabaggers were so silly.

The only thing that's silly is to be so delusional to think all these counterfeit Federal Reserve notes (aka "dollars") flooding the system won't be anything less than inflationville.

Rather a depression than hyperinflation. In the latter, the government won't be able to control people going into an economic underground to avoid holding dollars.

Furthermore, there he stood with his stupid look and said where did you hear this....and what's the saying ""AND HERE"S YOUR SIGN" !!

Get 'em Barack!! Those lying Faux News teabaggers are nothing but a bunch of whiners.
