The race card

Well, we have been lowered to the point where Representative Clyburn (D-SC) has suggested that if you oppose the stimulus package you are a rascist. I was getting worried that the race cards had all been played, but thankgoodness we have a new use for them.

Racism will be alive and well in America as long as narrow-minded pinheads keep using it as an excuse for what ails them. Here we have a BLACK man in the President's office and yet, somehow if we disagree with him me must be racist. It must be nice being born with a nice little security blanket wrapped around your shoulders so that when life throws you a curveball you can cry racism. Things don't go your way, obviously, rascism. You don't get hired for that job, rascism. You don't get the big promotion, racism. You are black and somebody disagrees with you, racism.

It can never be that you didn't work hard enough, or you were right for the job, or you didn't deserve the promotion, or your ideas are constipated. no, no, no. It must be racism.

Why is it you don't hear every other ethnic group in America crying rascism like the black population? What makes you so special? Jews, Muslims, Asians, Hispanics, Europeans the list goes on and on and on. The success stories go on and on and on. We see prominent black people all over our society that had no problem achieving lofty goals and positions in our country. As a matter of fact, a black person has held the top spot in just about every job that anyone can achieve.

This is just another example of the Leftwing liberal party trying to pandor to the black vote that they take advantage of and manipulate every election cycle. Wise up people, maybe you should stand up for yourselves and stop relying on politicians to spoon feed you what you want to hear. After all, they have not done all that much for your causes for the last 30 years, but maybe you just haven't noticed, because they talk so smoothily.

Obama Spendoholic

Well, he is at it again. Another spending package. Why should people that are getting foreclosed on get to get money from the government? If they can't pay their mortgages now, why do we think they will pay them in a 6 months? a year? The new plan actually rewards people for being irresponsible. It gives them a $1,000 up front and then if they are still current on their new mortgages another $1,000 in a year. WTF is going on in America. Is anybody going to give us money for paying our mortgage on time? Answer, no.

Why should these people get to re-negotiate their loans? This is the new Liberal America where there are no consequences for personal conduct. Buy a house to big for your income, no problem, the government will sweeten the deal and lower your payments to 31% of your income level, and the governement will pick up the tab for any fees associated with lowering yoru rates. Get pregnant because you are too stupid to use contraception, no problem, just get an abortion. The liberal left will not be happy until the day when Americans are totally reliant on the governmente for their handouts. Ask California how well it is working in their state. Last check has California at $42 billion in debt, oopsy.

Hopefully the majority of people losing their jobs are liberals, after all, it was the liberal agenda of Clinton and the Democratic controlled congress that put us in this position to begin with. It is amazing that people have forgotten that when Ronald Reagan took office unemployment was almost 11% and prime interest rate was 21%. What did he do to get the economy going again?

CUT TAXES ACROSS THE BOARD, PERIOD. What happened after he did that? Well, the biggest economic boom this country had seen since World War II is what happened, but the Democrats wanted to spend money on all their liberal pet projects instead, and because of their egos and their ignorance you will suffer for the next 10 years probably, 4 for sure. Why is it you have not heard one economist say that Obama's plan as it is laid out will restart the economy and get things going forward and upward? Because it won't, that's why.

Bill Maher is a Liar

I was on a commercial break from the show I was watching so I flipped on Larry King because he was supposed to have Cpt. Sullenberger on his show. Instead it is Bill Maher sitting there. Larry asked some question about the Spendulus Bill and Bill Maher responded why should anyone look at the Republicans Stimulus package when after all it was just a few months ago that they were in charge. LIAR

The Democrats have been in charge since 2006. The congress, NOT the president drives legislation coming out of the congress. Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have been in charge. The real question is why doesn't anyone give them credit for what they did to America the last 2 years. The economy was actually doing well for 6 years up to when they took control of congress again.

The Democrats were in charge of EVERY committee, that's both Banking committees. You remember the hearings they held a couple years ago where Barney Frank and that idiot Maxine Waters were saying that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were in great shape and there was no need for any investigation of them.

Bill Maher is your typical left wing Liberal. They can't rely on the truth of the record. They have to lie and distort, or outright rewrite history to escape what they have done to this country. Every time the liberals are in charge the country is weakened, see 9/11 and the Cole, the Embassy bombings, the mortgage crisis, the first Twin Tower bombings. Wake America before you find yourself with nothing.

The sickness that is our Government

Here we are in just one of the worst economic periods in our country and the people that we have voted into office to run the government are more concerned with lining their own pockets and the pockets of their friends, than they are in solving this problem.

During the 90s Japan tried to spend their way out of a recession. You might have heard Obama bring up how Japan's recession lasted 10 years. What you didn't hear Obama say was that the reason it lasted 10 years was because they tried to SPEND their way out of it, and it didn't work. It never works.

Historically our Government spends between 17-21% GNP. Whenever we spend over this amount unemployment rises with it. If you go back 30 years you will see that every time we have gone above these numbers the unemployment went up with it. After it got up to 24% or so and unemployment was above 10% and they got spending under control and brought it down to 17%GNP, guess what? the unemployment dropped to all time lows of 3 - 4%. The projections for GNP spending after the stimulus bill has been put into action and the bank bailouts and such could approach 39% which would be an ALL TIME high. Look for unemployment to push close to 15%.

The Democrats got what they wanted. This bill will not do much in the way of creating any jobs for up two years. The Republicans had a stimulus plan that was designed to create 6 million jobs, or about twice the Democrat Spendulus bill and it would have cost HALF as much. Imagine that two times as many jobs for half the cost, but there was a downside to the Republican bill, it wouldn't have paid off the unions and all the other people that the Democrats wanted to funnel money to.

The Congressional Budget office, a not-partisan organization, has estimated that the Stimulus bill over ten years will cost 3.7 Trillion dollars.

Obama and his pals have really screwed the United States by putting themselves first, and the country a distant second. It is a shame that we are all going to have to suffer so much to prove to the masses that voted for Obama and his cronies that you got sold a bill of goods that didn't exist. He was a smooth talker and you drank the Kool-aid. Wake up America. Big government hurts us all. Conservatism is the way out of a recession not liberalism. You cannot afford to be liberal in a recession.

Those that don't learn from History, have no Future.

Obama, the first few days

Isn't it great to see that the man who proclaimed that Change was coming, is pretty much behaving like every other liberal that has entered the oval office. It is nice to see that he had to take shots at the outgoing administration in his innaugural speach, and has continued to take pot shots at Republicans every chance he gets.

When R-Oh, Eric Cantor expressed that you can't increas benefits to low income people that don't pay any taxes at all, Obama responded, I won. I can trump you on that.

Closing Gitmo, how childish can you be. Saying that you won't abandon your ideals for the security of the US, again, how naive can you be? I guess this is what you get when you vote somebody into office that has absolutely no clue about what is going on.

Obama's solution for the economy, let's create 3 million new government jobs. Let's have the government spend 1 trillion dollars.

You would get more economic stimulus if you divided up that money and gave it to the taxpayers of this country. The economy would be instantly flush with cash and spending from the ground up. The economy would be flying again, the banks would be flush with cash, creditors would be flush with cash as people paid off their bills, and merchants would be getting business from all the spending.

The government throwing a trillion dollars to the top of the food chain will not stimulate anything.
