To call me a fence sitter presumes that I having trouble deciding between two predetermined choices. That is not the case. I am not wavering between between being or supporting Democrats or Republicans. I reject both. You're just proving your stupidity. Again.

The reason you continue to flame me is because I take stands against everything America stands for. That is a very good reason for you to make an accurate claim that I stand for nothing.Thank you bigtex for helping spread the word that I am a lying, worthless, Anti-American cock-sucker.

The Theme: Spending your way to economic prosperity.Yesterday the DJIA closed over 14,000 points again and the NASDAQ set a 12 year high. Obama's decisions to do the 800 billion dollar stimulus and the bailouts have worked out. The economy of the USA is much better now than when Bush and Cheney left in Jan 2009. Thirtyfour thousand troups are comeing home from AG next year, the USA won't be spending 20 billion per month any more for the war effort. The one percent will be paying more tax (an increase from 35.5% to 39%). This is the same rate that the one per cent were paying when Clinton was president, the last time the Federal Government had a surplus. The TEA party is clueless. Stop listening to Palin, Newt, Michelle Bachman and Mitch McConnell. Obama bailed out GM, for 2012, GM posted $4.9 Billion in profit. Mitt said let GM go bankrupt in 2009, that would have been a bad idea. Invest in one of the 30 stocks that make up the DJIA, you might make some money. We have a president who knows what he is doing, unlike George W. Bush who was clueless with a capital C.
If the American public buys his bullshit, then they deserve the consequences !
The only good thing Obama said was his repeated pleas for a vote....
Yes. Let the Democrats vote on Obama's spending, budget, gun control, and all the unfavorable legislation the Democrats stand for but most Americans don't.
Obama presides by secrecy and fiat, his policies are always aligned against the prevailing American sentiment. Originally Posted by Whirlaway

Not saying I approved of either of them but if you want to give credit then make sure it is the right person. Yes, one was signed into law by Obama but the hard work was done by Bush before he left office. The other was passed before the start of the year. No Obama except in the Senate. GM stills owes 25 billion and we will never see it. That pay off you heard about...the Bush bailout which GM paid off. Did McConnell say something interesting? I must have missed it. Pray tell me what it was. We are losing the war in Afghanistan and our people are dying for nothing now. That 20 billion that you think we're going to save....already spent on green energy, bailouts for cronies, and loans to foreign banks. We are also missing four state department employees under Obama. One ambassador and three security people. Yeah, the DOW closed over 14,000...it was higher under Bush you know. Ever hear the term "bubble"? We are also over 5 trillion dollars deeper in the hole, we have been downgraded on our credit rating, and North Korea, NORTH KOREA is making threats against the US. Oh yeah, things are so much better from when Al Quieda was on the run, the US was on offense, and we didn't have drones flying over the US.
