To fight any foe or extreme problem is not a overnight solution or cure. If at the end of his term Obama has failed we can vote him out. You all think you can do it better..then run for office. To make your mind up this early in the administration is just stupid. In this world you are either part of the solution or part of the problem Not giving the President support and a chance to prove that he has it right means you are part of the problem. Would love to see you "whingers" on the battlefield...you'd be crying for your momma.
You are soooo right.
Do these Obama bashers take their vehicles into a garage for a complete service and tell the mechanic that if the vehicle isn't ready in 4 minutes they are frauds............ not on your life, but Obama must fix America in 6 months....ridiculous.

I like the car analogy, but see it like this...
Leave you car off at the shop and in six months time the estimate keeps going up and up and up, the car still isn't fixed, they can't tell you what the problem actually is, but instead keep babbling how the last shop you took it to has it all screwed up.

Good point..now look at it like this.....
You tow your car to the shop after it had been stolen by some half crazed morons who virtually destroyed the car by driving it recklessly and over revving it till it screamed then driving it headlong into a wall. Every four minutes you keep phoning the Mechanic and asking him if it is fixed yet. He says he is fixing it as quick as he can but he keeps seeing more and more damage and do you want him to just stop repairing it or do you want the vehicle to be driveable again?

Which would you pick...

I'm sorry to keep bugging you and obviously i want my car, that i love, to be put back into great shape, give me the bill when you know how much it will cost to repair it. i realise the original estimate will not be enough.
or

Here's the $100 you wanted to fix my brakes now put the vehicle to the kerb and leave it there as i don't want it fully repaired and driveable.

Which choice...full repair or just fix it a little bit>?

So you took your car to one garage and they screwed it up. You then quit trying to get it fixed. There are other better garages, it's just a case of not letting your partisanship for the failed garage get in your way.

Interesting that you are advocating free market consumerism as a solution, but run around starting these threads for Government run healthcare.
