Violator, one big question.

Why do you only give a flying # about America's poor, when you think it gives you an opportunity to slapthe president around?

'Cause I promise you, they're still there when he's NOT buying buses.

Further, what, do you want him to spend tax dollars to help the impoverished? That's called welfare, which if I recall correctly, is a word that sends you into frothy, apoplectic fits of rage.

So what is it you're trying to pull here, chief?




Ouch!

I know I'm a bit late to the game...BUT, let me ask the OP one question: Does Obama get to keep the bus when he leaves the White House?

What's that?

No, you say.

Then I fail to see how he has spent $2-million on himself.




OUCH!!

As much as we would like to.......

And maybe point it towards a cliff...

I guess we really can't do that.



GOP or Dem, I think what you say is rediculous.
Libertarian, thank you.

Learn how to spell the word ridiculous right here..... R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S.

You are welcome.


Woah ... you showed me.

Sorry I often misspell that word, perhaps I won't again.

Since when has a Libertarian been a President, because that is what I was addressing.

GOP or DEM, I would not condone the death of either president.

So do you have anything other than teaching me how to spell a word a lot of people happen to screw up or is that about it?

Let's see:

Where did I condone the death of a president in my post?

You inferred it. I can hardly help what you think.

Regarding your spelling, when you spell the word incorrectly, it shows up with a red line underneath it, indicating that you have spelled it wrong. It's called spell-check. When you see the red line, you can try to correct your mistake, or you can just let it go, not caring about how you do things.

I agree with you, but do you really think McCain and Palin would have been better?

No one really does.... so where does that leave us?

It leaves us with a president that has been an economic failure.

It doesn't matter who wasn't elected, now does it?

What did you mean when you said point the bus at a cliff? Don't play games, we're adults right? Spinning your own words is pathetic and childish. It was obvious what you meant. Be an adult.

I do not have spell check on, how do you know if there is a red line or not? You don't and there isn't.

I really could careless if I misspelled a word. You seem fixated on it. It is the internet, not everyone spells perfectly. You showed me the error of my spelling so I learned from it... yay. Now get over it.

Actually Bush was the economic failure. Obama needs to do more, but it is not like he has a chance with the congress and senate we have. You should be blaming those folks if anything. You need to pay attention to economists rather than right wing blogs and fox news. That is what I do. I am in no way a Lib. I am just honest.

It is available to you, but you have made it all clear when you said that you could 'careless'.

Please read my entire post about the bus and the cliff.

The last line is the important one:




As much as we would like to....... And maybe point it towards a cliff... I guess we really can't do that.


Can you read the last line?

That takes me off the hook for 'condoning the death of a president'.

I'll just be me, thank you. You can try the adult thing.

Do you really think so?



I suppose you think we need to re-elect him so that he can have some more time to 'do more'?

I wasn't trying to put you on the hook. Isn't wishful thinking the same as condoning?

Why the heck to you care about my spelling so much.

Depends who he is running against.

I was actually considering voting for Ron Paul to be honest.

So far he seems the best candidate.

Perry, Bachmann are out of the question and Mitt isn't that bad, but I doubt he's going to get the GOP nom, because he is too normal.

Your spelling is just perfect for you.

Believe it or not, I really don't care about your spelling skills, or the fact that you don't care about it either.

Yes 2 million dollars is such a horror when:
the government has 25 billion dollars a year it cant account for
12 billion on a super collider that was only a quarter finished and sold for barely nothing


In one year, the DOD spent 100 million dollars on plane tickets taht were never used.

Obama uses his bus.Who cares about 2 million.

So again, its a smear campaign.

And I can list many more government atrocities that make a bus look like the change you find in your couch.

wow, that's the comeback of the year. Is that what you're going to say when your home is foreclosed, job gone and the country completely down the tubes, and not just rapidly circling the drain like it is now.

"Whew, glad that McCain/Palin hadn't won. Things would REALLY be bad then!"

The US was sold a major bill of goods on Obama and now are realizing that a Chicago Community Organizer shouldn't be running the country.

This thread should be titled "I don't really have a problem with the topic of the thread, my problem is..."


The President of the United States embarks on a tour to meet and take questions from everyday Americans on issues ranging from Jobs/Unemployment, Wars, the economic crisis and the pace of recovery....

AND THE GOP ASKS...."Hey...who made that bus"

It is a Million different flavors of Gay Marriage and Where is the birth certificate.

It is telling that a political party whose front-runner openly declares "Corporations are people" would attack the President of the United States for actually going out and meeting with real people

It is also telling that when the President of the United States speaks about the biggest problems facing our nation...Jobs and the Economy...the GOP looks to desperately change the topic to the model and make of the bus

Here is the GOP 2012 strategy.

(a) Obstruct any measures that may actually improve the economic situation.

(b) Continue to blame the failing economy on the President of the United States.

(c) When the President puts forth actual proposals to address the economic crisis and unemployment....DISTRACT - Who made that bus anyways?

Why not actually try to improve the economy and then take credit for it? Because they can't do that without alienating their campaign backers...Wall Street - Oil and Energy Companies -the Wealthiest 2%.

They can help the country - but they would personally lose money they need to campaign in 2012.

This is a time in American history like no other. The battle between Democracy and Plutocracey has gone to the ground and everyone is bleeding. In the age old theme of the devil posing as the savior, the contemporary Monarchy of the wealthiest power brokers like the Koch brothers has cloaked themselves in the image of the "people", the "founding fathers" and "freedom".

Everyone that loves this country has a duty to fight for it in the comming election....whatever side of the aisle you sit on, stop letting yourself be distracted, stop listening to the talking points, abandon idealogical propaganda, find the truth on your own and fight for it.

As long as the actual "People" do that we will survive whatever 2012 brings, if not then the founding fathers' "Great Experiment" that is the United States of America will for all practical purposes be over in my humble opinion.

In truth, neither party now fully represents the people, but the GOP offends me more since they have chosen to pretend that they are the keepers of the torch or liberty while kneeling to the monarchy.

Yeah the country would be WAY worst if McCain/Palin had won. A country can take only so many years of Republican leadership, same goes for Democrat leadership. After 8 years of Bush this country was about to explode in violence. People had no hope or rest and were ready to start violence.

All in all it doesn't matter what President is in office, there isn't anything any politician can do to save this country is what most people have to realize. This country is doomed because the world is now global and we can't compete with .50 per hour. Simple as that!

So while all these people are crying about Obama (either listening to talking heads or exposing their racism) anyone with a brain who actually took in the entire picture would know what the problem is. The wealthy elite and corporations have gone global! Our politicians will not do the only thing that can return this country to prominence because they won't be allowed too by their sponsors. Our government (which most people are ignorantly crying about) has been hijacked by MONEY.

Even if everyones favorite Mr. Paul gets into office...he will find that he can't get ANYTHING done. He won't have just the GOP blocking his proposals but also the Dems. His tour of duty would be even worst than Obama! Obama at least has a small percentage of backers in the Dems, who would Paul have?

I'll get back to the economy being global...With this being the case the world is going have to balance out. Gone are the days of Americas headstart on everyone else. The factories that afforded us a middle income are now in South America, Asia and Africa where they are paying $1 per hour with NO benefits. Can we EVER compete with that? No, No, NOOOOOOOOOO!

Capitalism going global has royally screwed us! Until the employees in these Third World countries begin demanding benefits and higher pay, the industries will not be returning to America. Tax cuts, incentives, NOTHING will bring them back before.

So you can cry about Obama/Barry all you want...unless you're stupid and can't see what's actually going on, you're merely displaying racism and ignorance.
