Has Obama done everything I would like him to? No. But he is at least trying to focus attention back on problems that need fixing-like greedy insurance company bastards like the ones at Aetna who are dropping 60,000 people to improve their profit margin.

BTW. There are a lot of us out here that did not agree with everything that W did.

Idiot fucksticks that run around bleating about cost and bridgebuilding should shift off their dead lazy asses and head over to bldg1 on Treasure Island and look at the construction and timelines for building both the Bay Bridge and the Golden Gate. If they were real citizens, they’d get their guns and kill every son of a bitch involved in the process of rebuilding the Bay Bridge for massive corruption and incompetence.

It is very interesting to me that people continue to complain about the stimulus and bank bail out. Most respectable economists agree that spending was the only way to divert a disaster. Unfortunately, there is no real way to tell since we can’t go back and do it over again, and really, what is done is done.

It is also interesting that none of these voices spoke out when the former president began his spending spree. In 2001, there was a $260 billion dollar surplus. That was quickly done away with and a further $4.7 Trillion was added to the national dept. Where was the outrage? Where were the teabagers? Where was Glenn Beck, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, et al.?

Answer, they were okay with it because a “conservative” was in charge.

It is okay to spend a trillion dollars invading Iraq, but it is not okay to spend a trillion dollars fixing roads, bridges, and other infrastructure? Do you drive?

Unless somebody can prove to me that they were against the bush deficit spending, they need to STFU and get back to work. What is all this protesting going on when there are taxes that need to be deducted.

How much will that BIG MAC cost you when the burger flipper is making $18 an hour?

Try that! Do that! Don’t spend more than that!

Don’t spend my daughter’s future and her children’s future. $12 TRILLION IN DEBT but politicians want to keep spending.

We should slash the minimum wage to $2.00 an hour and send all those people who do the work that Americans won’t do home to Mexico and Guatemala etc.

\Skippy probably knows as well as I do that where our industry used to hire high school kids as temps we now hire college engineers as temps in technician jobs for peanuts.

Liberals in this country have sewn the vomit and we cannot find jobs for uneducated ignorant pillocks with high school degrees. We don’t have $45/hour jobs on assembly lines bolting on a widget as the assembly line flies by and won’t ever have them again. Stupid ignorant people need not apply and we seem to have about 30% of our population who fall into that category.

And you should raise the minimum wage so that is above the poverty line and stop outsourcing… Spend your way out of recession, they say; spend with WHAT?… (Sorry I am reading Barbara Ehrenreich at the moment.)
