Thread: Obama speaks

  1. #1

    Obama speaks

    I guess he had to wait for his teleprompter to get loaded.

    He says he didn't need a a rating agency to tell us that we need a balanced long term approach to deficient reduction. He says he knew that last year and when he took office and as early as last week.

    I guess that is why he brought forward a budget that increased spending an additional $3 trillion over 10 years that was voted down 97-0 in the senate.

    It is CLEAR that he gets it...

    and he wants to raise taxes...because as we all know, the politicians need more of our money. They don't have enough of it and we should be ashamed that we aren't writing them a check. All of us average tax payers could get second jobs, or we could work until July to pay our taxes instead of the middle of May. There are so many important things that the politicians have to do for their communities with our money so they can get reelected. Far be it from us to not step up to the plate and pay more.

    Re: Obama speaks

    this whole embarassing mess points out several things we already knew, but puts it on full display. mainly that the obama camp, boehner, reid and all other leaders have little talent when faced with hard decisions with obvious answers. that's lack of leadership all around. and i cant for the life of me figure out how they all can act so suprised by the downgrade and continue to point fingers.

    Re: Obama speaks

    Senator Coburn's plan, the most serious one I've seen addressing the deficit and actually getting it reduced, includes closing any number of tax breaks. I think it needs more serious discussion in conservative circles.

    I hope so, jk, but aside from RPaul and Herman Caine there's not an R candidate that would be much better.

    THIS ^^^^^^^^
    The GOP's absolute "no tolerance" policy on anything that can be construed as a tax is absolute stupidity.
    You tell me it's the institution. Well, you know, you'd better free your mind instead.

    Re: Obama speaks

    And there, Veritas, is the real tragedy. I'm a lifelong R voter and can't see a single candidate on that side of the divide who I think would be one iota better than Obama.

    The Dems don't get that the individual, not the collective, is the basis for our society and therefore keep trying to pump big government as the solution to whatever is defined as a problem.

    The Repubs can't quite figure out that being conservative means butting out of individual's personal lives and want to grant to organized religion the coercive powers of the government.

    It's a disgusting mess.

    But then, we've been here before, so this, too, will pass. Not pretty, but not, historically, that big a deal.

    So I guess you guys want Trump to jump back in???
    What a freek.

    The only good thing about Trump would be the debate line..."You're Fired"!

    Obama's popularity rating is so low even Jimmy Carter is calling Obama another Jimmy Carter.

    We didn't get downgraded for the first time in our nation's history because our taxes are to low.

    It's because the donks, who control the government, have bankrupted the country.

    We need Bachman, Palin, or Perry in the White House. They will pump up the market with prayer and Jesus!
