MUST REALLY HURT you Republicans when you see Obama policies that WORK !!!

Maybe you would rather see Obama issue $600 Tax Rebate Checks to the entire country, like Bush did in 2008?

Look how well Bush's rebates worked at stopping the recession !

The mentality of liberals...
Where has this ever been proposed by anybody? You are quick to make shyt up that is totally irrelevant to a thread. Here's what the current leader of the Democratic Party said:

"We have to say to our children, Yes, if you're African American, the odds of growing up amid crime and gangs are higher. Yes, if you live in a poor neighborhood, you will face challenges that someone in a wealthy suburb does not. But that's not a reason to get bad grades, that's not a reason to cut class, that's not a reason to give up on your education and drop out of school. No one has written your destiny for you. Your destiny is in your hands - and don't you forget that."

LOL...These people that are taking part in the program are Americans, it's there money to..LOL..The businesses are selling cars on American soil, thus paying American taxes. These purchases will create more jobs on so on and so forth. This will do far more stimulating than a fraudulent war..That's the waste you should've opposed.

Let your Congressman know..Try talking to him/her before shouting "just say no"..You might actually make progress.



Why are you always crying?
