Give 'em hell Barry!!!!!!

The first stimulus saved us from another Great Depression and created 17 straight months of private sector job growth. But it was too small. Now we need another stimulus to keep it going. But the Republicans are doing everything in their power to destroy the economy, so they can win the next election. There is no evil on this earth that the Republican Party won't support.

 

[MiddleClass]

It was by far his best speech. Lets just see if Obama finally found his testicles and is ready to fight against the Bullies in the Tea Party, and the coward conservatives who are afraid to stand up to them, less they lose their next reelection bid. If Republicans in the House do not capitulate on the American Jobs Act, they can kiss their one hit wonder jobs away in 2012. America deserves better than "Just Say No"!

 

[signelect]

I wonder what he would have said if he had to make it up on the fly and let us know what is really on his mind. No one questions his speech writers or his ability to read. It is his ability to comprehend that is the issue.

Here is the real issue he has made mistake after mistake and this latest effort is not new it is more of the same. spend spend spend, take care of the homy's and the unions, buy votes. He just doesn't know how to do anything else.

Go green in 2012 recycle Obama

 

[saveliberty]

The avorice for power on display by our President is repugant. Spending $450 billion of our children's future for his own last ditch effort to keep power is truly without rival. Worst President ever.

You're freeloading days are o ver with time for you to get a job, oh thats right obama let GM build a plant in China after he bought them.

 

[grunt11b]

He's making an effort...

... which is more than can be said for salt the earth republicans.

An apparent effort to pass the same bills that previously failed. So yes, he is making an effort to do even more damage by doing the same things he has done before that failed. Does that make any sense to you at all?
I would rather they all just do nothing rather than do something that is sure to fail.

 

[grunt11b]

He speaks really well. It's a pity that I miss most of what he says because I'm laughing at the bullshit.

I didn't even bother watching it, it wasn't worth my time being that it is the sames speech he gives every other week with the same substance and what not. I will not waste another minute of my life paying any attention to what the lying turd has to say.

 

[grunt11b]

I wonder how long it's going to take some of those on the left to see this man for what he is. He sure does talk alot, but nothing positive ever gets done, it's been the same shit for almost 3 years now, and they still support him regardless of how much damage he has done. This is indeed scary times for America when you have an electorate that ignorant and dumbed down to put this man in front of their own liberties and country.
He is not doing anything good for anybody, but yet they still support him.

 

[Sallow]

If you somehow read that into what I said, I have some water front proprety in the desert for sale. Care to buy it sight unseen?

Iam sure you can see the water with your imagination.

So you want the government to stop spending money?

Raytheon, GM, Boeing, Halliburton, General Dynamic, Xe services, Exxon, and a plethora of other corporations and industries are sure going to be upset without the Tax Payer cash..but heck..

GM built a plant in china BTW... I don't know how you got government from what I originlly posted

when your neighbor beside you has no job you do not pay attention to that when you neighbor on the other side loses his job you may notice but continue on your way to work, when you are the only one in your neighborhood working you aren't going top spend anything. You aren't going to make large purchase you’re going to hold on to that money and only buy things you need.

I hope this helps

I don't know what the heck you were trying to say with your "example". Frankly...it made no sense.

So.

Government spending. Yes or no?

It is because real solutions require unpleasant hardships and work to make real change. Much easier to accept that someone can simply make your life better with a speech , bill or entitlement.

The first stimulus saved us from another Great Depression

I thought it was the lint in my pocket that saved us?

Actually, both had about the same effect.

and created 17 straight months of private sector job growth. But it was too small. Now we need another stimulus to keep it going. But the Republicans are doing everything in their power to destroy the economy, so they can win the next election. There is no evil on this earth that the Republican Party won't support.

 

[saveliberty]

Yes, the first stimulus was SO good we didn't even SPEND half of it. So if more was needed, why didn't they spend it? They had plenty. Now all of sudden Obama knows where there are $450 Billion in smart spending choices. NOT.

 

[thereisnospoon]

apparently, the truth troubles our friend avatar. so much so that rather than acknowledge the truth of the statement, he has to pretend it's somehow bashing the military to tell the truth

oh...and avatar.... they absolutely DID get out of going to vietnam by joining the guard in those days (unlike what happened during iraq). it was the poor schmucks who got sent off to the rice paddies.

I was in those rice paddies, Jillian, and I was neither poor, nor a conscript-like two-thirds of those who served there, I enlisted voluntarily. I don't disparage those who served in the Guard or Reserve for their choice to do that, any more than I disparage those who were "in the rear with the gear" while I was carrying a ruck and a rifle. We were all on the same team. At least, they weren't in the street, chanting "Hell no, we won't go!", or cheering for Ho Chi Minh.

then you were part of a minority. and i respect your going. you put your money where your mouth is.

i'm afraid though, i don't see anything wrong with the 'hell no, we won't go' thing either. the people who said that believed with all their heart that we had no reason to be in vietnam.... just as you believed it was your duty to go.

And it the difference between people like you and the rest of us. We place country before self.
NO matter what it is. Military service, volunteer work, or just doing the little things. We disagree on this point.
Again, country first.
This has nothing to do with Viet Nam or Iraq or Afghanistan. It's the idea.
There is a general consensus that people of today's Liberal Left could not stomach the idea of WW II for example. That the ramping up of military might, the way the war was fought( non of this wining of hearts and minds). The fact that most liberals of today could not tolerate the idea of the military's only job is to blow up stuff and kill the enemy until either his resources are exhausted or he loses the will to fight.
No. You people would have us watch idly by while our nation is threatened while appeasing our enemy.
I suppose the Viet Nam war protesters had a legitimate complaint against the government.
However they went too far by attacking our military men and women who'd been to South East Asia. That is where the anti war movement lost all credibility.
Duty, sweetheart. It's in every American who acknowledges the reason why we have a Constitution, why we have the freedom to pursue our dreams, why we have the right to vote, etc is because of our high consciousness of duty.

 

[thereisnospoon]

Obama kicked ASS! Im over seas on UK territory right now and had a chance to watch it with a bunch of RAF and Royal Marines. Let me tell you, they love Obama!

Anyhow, I found myself having to defend the GOP policy on taxes and I just cant, its a bad policy and always has been. Its also very uplifting to see the Brits and how much they adore our Government.

I need to see this Obama a lot more from here on out.

I don't give a rats ass what the opinion of a bunch of foreigners is regarding our issues here.
If they love Obama so much, they are welcome to him when we get through kicking him out of the White House.
Obama looked lost. He gave a pre programmed campaign speech last night.
There is NO BILL. If there were, Congress would have seen it.
How you can be so easily led is a mystery.
And please spare me the "oh you just hate Obama because he's ( fill in the blank) or because you're a right wing extremist" bullshit.
I oppose Obama on policy and ideology. He does not have the interests of the American people in his agenda. His agenda is to tear this nation down and rebuild it in the Image HE created. He views this country as unfair because there are people who can't afford to live in a large home or send their kids to college( presumably to learn social engineering skills) or be able to buy a home or expensive car. His solution is not to lift those at the bottom but it is to destroy the people of means. He believes this because there is no way to simply distribute wealth by taking it and passing it to others whom HE believes to be worthy.
Obama ran his campaign on helping the middle class at the expense of the upper income classes. That was bullshit politics. All Obama did was help himself to the votes of the middle class which unfortunately he had successfully duped. Meanwhile the middle class while not doing as poorly as the Left would like us to think, conditions for the middle class have not gotten any better either. And that is a campaign promise Obama has shreded over and over again.
So tell us, where is the Half trillion dollars going to come from? Where is Obama's Bill? ON what paper is it written? Does Obama expect THIS Congress to simply give him a check for $450 billion and call it a day?
Obama talked quite a bit last night,but didn't say much. Oh he offered up his ideas, but not once did he say HOW he was going to accomplish his ideas. Obama's arrogance allows him to believe we as a people would simply go along with his wishes.
Umm, not so fast Pal.

 

[thereisnospoon]

wtf? do you CARE more for politicians than the AMERCIAN TAXPAYERS?
this man was ALREADY GIVEN 800 billion dollars of OUR MONEY and NONE of it HELPED US. So you think we should give them MORE?

Sallow got that feel good feeling from obama's speech, it's like a drunk that just went on an all nighter. Ya'll have to excuse him for talking like a drunk

Um..no.

It was refreshing to see a man who could cognitively string paragraphs together after watching the Pugfest the night before.

There were actual lunatics on the stage running for president, like Bachmann, Cain and Paul.

You have the "Matthews tingle" as well , don't you?
Refreshing......A drink of cold water is refreshing.
A politician drunken on his own image of self worth is scary.
When will you realize that Obama's sole focus is to get re-elected so he can finish building his legacy?
Of course you do not see it that way.
$800 billion in alleged stimulus money out the window. What makes you think that THIS time things will be different?
Here's the rub. Private enterprise could do precisely what Obama says he can do. Only the private sector doesn't need a half trillion from the taxpayers.

Great speech. Shocking enough..Canter looks like he wants to play ball.

Lets see how it shakes out.

what was great about it, exactly?
