The right's lust for money. Please both parties are playing that game. Why did Obama receive more money from BP than any other candidate. How did Obama receive more money from wall street than any Republican candidate. Wake up and smell the coffee, this has become a ruling class system vs a republic. The middle class actually grew to its largest level under Reagan and Bush 43. Also, maybe we should ignore the upper income class also grew as well, right. I mean these people just moved in from overseas, or just appeared out of thin air, right? Clearly they did not go from middle class to upper class at all. That would be to logical. Go back to what I said earlier, did you ever receive a job from a poor person? These poor millionaires hate eating out, going to movies, buying cars, buying jewelary, right. I mean we can replace all that spending with the Teacher's salary right. Oh yeah, I forgot they get their salary from the poor millionaires that pay taxes. Amazing how that works.
Only if you report facts. Why don't you talk about the real cost of the "tax cut". The money belongs to the american people not the other way around. If you are worried about the federal deficit why don't you talk about the rest of the cost for the "tax cut". For the people that make under $250,000 the cost for this "tax cut" is around $3 trillion dollars representing around 75% of the total cost for the Bush Tax Cuts. Where is that in your discussion for adding to the deficit. Plus how can it cost you something when it is not in the revenue stream at all. It does not the cost the government anything to keep these tax cuts. Finally, how many jobs have you received and kept from a poor person? Answer that honestly and you will realize that more jobs were created during times of tax cuts (ie JFK, Reagan, Bush 43)
Hey I totally agree with you on this and to think that many minorities (Asians, Irish, even Mormans) that have come to this country have succeeded, yet for some reason the impression on the country is that the black community has not. There are many opportunities for all walks of life in this great country of ours, but like you said if you keep dividing us, then it is much more difficult for us to become the true melting pot. Heck we have a black president; one women VP candidate and another as a presidential candidate; a morman , a former babtist preacher, a hispanic, and a jewish man all as predential candidates in the past four years. Let's stop making excuses and fight against those that are truly racist and believe in the good of people instead of always looking for the worst.
Not only does he have interest in the Wind Farms, but I am sure he will benefit from the Carbon Credit market that will be opened. This is just another futures market game that will give the rich an opporunity to "gamble" with their money and our energy future. By the way T. Boone also has a big investor in his wind farms = Nancy Pelosi. This reaks of big business and big government working together. If I am not mistaken this cause our last economic downfall and it will happen again if this bill is passes.
I don't question why she is doing it unless it is to run for President nearly three years away. No one has ever faced this type of media bias in a negative way and I can not blame her for leaving and getting back to her roots - the family. It will also allow her to become better educated and experienced on the foreign affairs, domestic policies, and other issues. However, if she ever wants to get back into politics she has to overcome that image of quiting a job before her term is up. If the people can overlook that and she is the best candidate for the job then she has my vote.
I agree with you regarding Sarah. I like her views and political beliefs, but I honestly believed she was not ready for the VP job. As much as other people want to compare this to Obama running for President while being a US Senator or any of the governors that have run for President or taken cabinet positions before their term is up is crazy. These are promotions and just like any of us would take a promotion from work. Most of the time we are still doing the old job while interviewing for the promotion. When we accept the promotion we leave the old job for the new. It happens every day in the private sector. However, what is odd here is that Sara is like the CEO that resigns out of the blue. No one expected it and even though the State is in good hands just like a corporation would be, it is still shocking.
You mention Palin and her being blasted by the media and I agree with you on that it is uncalled for when we have so much else to worry about in the world However, don't forget it is McCain's camp and Romney's former campaign managers that started this issue. You talk about not wanting a Castro like government, don't forget it was Bush that help started these bailouts. Don't forget it was also John McCain that voted for the bailouts and would have signed the Cap and Trade. I agree with you all of this wasteful spending needs to stop as well and so does this contant growth of Government. However both parties were taking us there. We as a nation have to educate people why this is bad and true freedom is the best for all of us. Get rid of Big Government and Big Business interest then we can get back to living free. Keep both of them and we are treading water between the two parties.
I am ending this stupid argument now, but know this I am not democrat and have never been (I married one). I have been involved with Republican politics for over twenty years. I was ten when I started working on helping a campaign for an Indiana Governor. My mom use to work for a republican Mayor of Indianapolis and a good family friend is now the Republican Governor of Indiana. My point is that your comment seemed to be racist and I still believe that you intended it that way. I am not defending Less is more beliefs but the fact it seemed your statement was racist. Again if it is not, then state it, but in all of your rant you have not.
Oh by the way when ACORN signs the same people up to vote over and over again it is VOTER REGISTRATION FRAUD not VOTER FRAUD! As of right now there is no proof of voter fraud. I am not saying there could not have been, but right now we have to go on facts and the facts state they are charged with Voter Registration Fraud.
Hey hot shot - read the post I said that his ratings is falling and agreed with Old navy guy on that point. You can not tell me that your comment was not racist if you honestly look at it. If you did not mean it that way then fine state that, but you have not. Telling BO to go back to Africa and that he only won because of the black vote. Come on man, be honest with your self.
By the way do you have proof that a lot of votes came from ACORN. They are charged with voter registration fraud not voter fraud. Read up on the difference. The point is BO won and received votes from all walks of life. If you don't believe that then fine, but then you need to wake up and see that we still have around 70 million people that voted for BO. 50 million of those probably still approve of his actions. How are we going to change that number is what we need to worry about, not this crap about racial politics.
Old navy guy - I think that you are mis-reading Lelsmore post. I know that she seems to have more liberal views from other post that I have read of hers but clearly bamaboy is incorrect on the reason that Obama was voited in and they are clearly racist remarks. Leslsmore is correct that his approval rating is in the 60% percent range and so are you in that it is falling. But let's call a spade a spade. Those are not the remarks most people that dislike Obama's views woould stand for ever. Obama was elected by all races. What we need to do is to better educate the society on why his policies are wrong for America.
