:D :D :D Hearts of magical electoral hope breaking all over Republicanland, as Mitch Daniels gives GOP response to SOTU, and looks and sounds more boring and stilted than Mitt. And even W. Very sad. Oh - and empty platitudes. No content. Very sad. Goodbye, GOP. You used to be a great party. Now you're just the John Birch Society owned by a few corporatists. Quote:

Only fools and morons listen to what politicians have to say in 2012 and actually believe them. Who cares what Obama says? Who cares what the reactions to the speech are? It is all a bunch of made up bullshit.

this quote: President Obama gave his State of the Union address last night and as far as housing goes, the President said the he will be sending Congress a plan that gives every responsible homeowner the chance to save about $3,000 a year on their mortgage, by refinancing at historically low interest rates, no more red tape. That means a savings of $250/month without any red tape. Let's say for instance you have a rate of 5.25% on 100,000 your new interest rate would have to be around .57% for you to lower your payments $250/month. Now lets take $200,000 your new interest rate would have to be 3.35% or lower to save $250/month on a 30 yr rate. Is this really reasonable or feasible? He said no more red tape. Did you know that by passing the 2 month payroll tax that they increased mortgage rates by charging higher G-fees on mortgages? Did you know that it will take 10 years of these fees to pay for 2 months of the payroll tax? |

Same speech as 2010, 2011. Same rhetoric, many times the exact same words. |

Sign me up for the .57 rate please. |

Must admit the Prez had some gems mixed in among his abstract talking point goals.
The first is eliminating tax breaks for corporations outsourcing jobs to foreign countries. To be honest I wasn’t aware of any such tax credit for outsourcing jobs but would love to know when it came into existence and why? (If it really exists) Then love to see it go away forever. The President’s plan of dispersing the money saved, among companies like MasterLock is ludicrous and wasteful of course, (Masterlock made the move to bring back jobs w/o gov involvement) but baby steps. Second was enacting a law to keep teens in school until 18. Obviously a great idea considering stats showing how important having a HS diploma (at least) is for future financial well-being. However w/o any teeth to the law it’s impotent. I submit keeping your child in school is at least as equally important to keeping weeds on your lawn cut under 8 inches so like the anti-weeders fine the parents $600-$1200/per day and watch parents suddenly get involved in their children’s education. Bottom line synopsis of the entire speech is the President still hasn’t figured out that government has no business financing private business. Government spending does not ensure job growth and to the contrary creates massive debt with only few jobs. |
obama, state of the union
How about that Mitch Daniels response? Thought BO had launched another DRONE! Man, that may have been worse than the LA governor two years ago.
Does the GOP just put these guys up to sacrifice them? Ocala Mike |

Newts proposed tax code modifications will put us billions in debt.
Mitt - less in debt. Obama - gets us out of debt. This is such an easy choice. Especially if our deficit is one's major worry. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036789/..._joe/#46113485 Obama, Romney, Gingrich comparison of tax plans here in Steve Rattner's segment from 1/24/12. |
