If Obama signs a bailout plan...he is criticised and he is wrong.
If Obama refuses to bail out the motor companies he is criticised and he is wrong.
Don't you people get tired of whinging, whinging, whinging?

I'm sure you would be happy to give the author a lesson in terms.

And how did we get here, according to Pravda -

First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system Then their faith in God was destroyed...The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world.

These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars.

Pravda is, for the most part correct in this, and we have the Democrats and all their liberal supporters to thank. All is not lost, however. It's a good sign that wealthy and well-educated families are home schooling their kids in record numbers because they're sick of rewritten history, substandard education and indoctrination, and the schools trying to usurp parental authority. The tide is turning, as evidenced by protests in the way of tea parties across the nation. Conservative talk shows on radio and TV are flourishing, with the Dems feeding them daily topics for discussion. People everywhere are beginning rally to volunteer to work for campaigns for 2010. And our faith in God is NOT destroyed, though the effort by the left continues. In spite of Obama, there is yet a glimmer of hope.

Those of you just chewing at the bit to defend your messiah, conside this:
Fed says they are puzzled by a steepening yield curve and are wondering if it's a good sign or a bad one -- it doesn't sound like a good thing that the Fed is puzzled. Aren't they the uniquely qualified geniuses who know everything and will fix the economy?

And, while the Fed's financial gurus are puzzled (even Geithner, I presume), Obama spends another hefty pile of your money to have a date night with Michelle in NYC. With three private jets and a helicopter, it cost taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars for the date. Obama picked up the tab for the dinner and theater tickets. Big deal! The rest of the cost was added to OUR bill.

Skip all your date nights with YOUR honey for the next 20 years, and this will be paid for.
Trouble is, they just keep piling on. The President says "we're out of money now", but keeps on spending. Where will it stop? Or, better put, WILL it stop?

Your quoting from a source about which you have nothing good to say?

Honestly, I think most people who voted for him just didn't know any better. This is especially the case with the younger, more inexperienced voters. However, things were going downhill long before Obama was elected (and I'm not talking about Bush).

This article was emailed to me recently. Very interesting. I hope they're wrong, but fear they might not be.

Evil lib with a lust for sausage and disgust at how it's made. That said, good luck finding anyone to provide or cook it for you. As you sadly know.

Oh, please. A lot of Americans do not want bail outs.

GM is a rat hole that Barry is throwing $$$ down, now and before when it "could not be allowed to fail".

Now 31 bil more...disgusting.

Oh, and pls share: Who other than the UAW would have cried if GM did the right thing and filed 7 months ago?

Is that the best you can say to someone who you don't agree with? Just insults?

AND BTW with a diet like that you probably won't be around too long to worry about "bizarre threads" that bother you.

Eat up!
