Have you taken advantage of BO's "wildly successful" program and traded in that clunker yet, Cannon?

I still wish the hacks from the Bush admin were still around to ask Cannon Shell and Arl Jim why they want to see America fail.

They are part of the new 'blame America first' crowd.

seems to me the reason they feel they way they do and are passionate about it is because they don't want to see America fail.

Please come up with some new material. We dont want America to fail, we merely point out the reasoning why the Govt's "programs" wont work. I might add we have been quite sucessful in that area so far. Thinking that rooting for Obama and company to do positive things will actually make that happen is the same as not changing positions on the couch during a 2 out rally that wont "help" your team score. Does ignoring the facts that he is screwing up the country far worse than Bush and company ever did (however in the name of change instead of war) make those that support him guilty as he is? We can revisit this in a few years and you can apologize to us then.

Whats the alternative though Coach? These arent stupid people and the destruction of the dollar isnt exactly lost on them. Bernanke, if anything, has been criticized in the past as being too much of an inflation hawk.

This is one hell of a mess this country is in. There is no easy solution and obviously letting the markets take care of themselves was not the answer.

The alternative? Well since we are already fat chick ass deep in a Keynesian economics era I suggest WWIII.

But, Obama is our president!

So it would be extremely unpatriotic to not offer him support and pray for him in these difficult times.

I offer him my full support. If he wishes to utilize my services to straighten things out I would be happy to help. While I am doing the dirty work he could run out with the NBC crew and pick up some burgers for us to eat since he has already shown a talent for being a gofer. Not much talent other than reading off the telepromptor.

And you can tell this after eight months??????????

What did you think of Bush after 8 months?

Reagan?

FDR?

What would the country have thought of Lincoln after 8 months?


The standards set for this president are ridiculous. He honestly can do no right with some people.

As far as reading off of the teleprompter, that puts him a leg up in front of your guy now doesnt it?

I have no clue what point you're trying to make. what country should I blame for the insane spending habits of the US government?
This thread is on a domestic economic issue. blame America first usually involves an action by a foreign entity.

Why do you hate America?

It's unpatriotic to point out insane spending habits.

You're either with us or against us. So, love it... or leave it.

No he doesnt hate America. He is just arrogant enough to think that he as the head of a much broader govt he will be able to provide a kumbaya style life to the oppressed paid for by the evil rich white males. He is more of a typical faux intellectual Harvard type than anything. Overeducated but polished. Worldly but clueless to the real world.
