All Barackovich wants to do is his Stalinist agenda. I expect him to start abusing eminent domain to the max.
prostitution too. new revenue streams, as well as a decrease in spending on police, prisons, jail guards, etc.

presidents need to stop signing budgets with garbage in them, just to get the stuff they need. keep sending that sucker back-you have veto power, use it!
and what we need most? term limits!! how much wasteful spending occurs because senior members of congress have the power to send money back to their states as a way to guarantee future voting? 'look what i got for our state. you'd lose all that if i lost the next election'. bull. that's wrong, it's wasteful, it needs to end.

Never have so many been so wrong on remedies not even remotely related in anyway to the issue.

Trained seals could and have done better.

Proof that a certificate of sanity should be presented before any imbecile is allowed to vomit on the i-net.





Later I will display the only avenue of approach to follow that will correct this hay ride upon which all the blind mice currently enjoy.

I'm sure many of you would heal the lame by blinding them as your "miracle" cures clearly suggest.








None of you deserve a sonorous voice of wisdom,but you're going to get it.


I wish upon you all an internationally renown model to be your bed buddy.....and infected with a horrible gag reflex.

To start work with the SEC to fix Mark to Market rules especially prior to giving any money to any financial entity. This will solve any decent financial institutions problems. Some of them just made bad decisions, but the good ones are being pulled down by an accounting problem. Want to see the dow have record gains?

Give tax breaks to business who hire new employees in the US. Doesn't job growth and lower unemployment mean more $ to the economy and more tax revenues?

Provide a tax credit of a minimum of $10k to any person paying taxes in the us for buying a new primary residence with no phase out for income. You want to stimulate the housing market.

Finally Slow down! If these problems didn't happen over night then they can't be solved that quickly. Stop trying to do everything at once.

One thing that has been noticeably absent
is the outcry from Democrats allowing "BIG
BAD BANKS" to stay in business. If GW had
tried this propping up, he would have been
persecuted from the left.

At least most Republicans are staying true to
their credo of letting failing companies
die, as this is how capitalism functions.

Where is the anger from the left on the
bank bailout?

Most dont even bother actually reading the links because as liberals they are just intellectually superior to the rest of us.

The great part about the demise of newspapers is that the WSJ is very well positioned and will survive as the liberal rags go down the drain. Truthfully the WSJ is far too complicated for most liberals.

Cardus or Cannon, have you guys ever been called liberal?

The article:

Eventually we are goint to have to get off the carbon atom.
Its just a matter of time. Nuclear power is the first viable
alternative. If France produces 70-80% of their power using Nuclear why cant we?We produce more wind power in Texas than we
can actually deliver so our two coal plants in San Antonio
keep pumping along. And yes they cause bad air alerts,
something that we never use to get. Asthmatics and
allery sufferers have elevated effects with more crap
in the air. The Carbon atom comes with other elements
hanging off of it, even in the very cleanest coal and the
sweetest crude. And it gets in the air. No one denies this.
(I wont even get into the issue of greenhouse gases
as this is still debatable
as to how much effect humans have on climate.)

I dont know if its the right time, or the right way to do it,
but its pretty clear Obama wants us off the carbon atom.
This article is obviously much more specific than what
I am giving you. Ill-conceived taxes, promises broken,
etc...

As an aside we have had two kids die at our school due
to asthma attacks. There is no PE on air alert days as
both occurred on these days. We have (in this city)
many more breathing related problems that we ever
have after we put up additional turbines and Braunig
and Calaveras Lakes (our coal plants).

The article presents this carbon tax is the wrong way to do it.
Fine. It does make sense.The alternative is...
because we gotta get off
the carbon atom. We have to.

Just dropping by....nuclear power and desalinization plants are the way to go for the future,imho. This is forward planning....

Obama vowed to go line by line through the budget, and would not except wasteful earmarks. that was during the campaign. now he says he will sign this current budget that contains 9000 earmarks because "we need to move forward"
Is this the hill you think he should die on at this time? There is a worldwide financial crisis, threat of depression (if we are not there already) and two wars going on, and I think those more important to his attention at this time (to any President's attention, be it GOP or Dem). Should everything be called to a halt to line-item less than 2% of spending? This budget is only going to get us through September 2009 anyway. All earmarks do not equal pork, nor waste. How much of the 9000 earmarks are truely waste? (I have no idea) The GOP is responsible for 40% of the 7.7 billion in earmarks in this budget, the Dems 60%, and this 7.7 is less than 2% of the spending.

I'm willing to wait and see how Obama handles the next budget. The first real budget that will be within his scope as President (this one was created before he was elected)

Quote:
during the campaign he made a huge deal how he would not hire lobbyists and that he would have none in his Whitehouse. the fact is at last count he has made 19 exceptions to this ironclad promise.
Obama has the strictist ethics requirements ever. Period. He gets credit for that. The campaign promise was NOT that he would not hire lobbyists. It is a bit more complicated than that (former lobbyists can do no lobbying while working for the administration, nor have association with the groups they formerly lobbied, etc). I know of two exceptions to those rules (in defense and health) - the only justification is that both candidates are supported strongly for their experience and skill by both GOP and Dem.

Quote:
the timetable for withdrawal from Iraq is the one the Petraeus outlined some time back under Bush. Obama has added nothing to this matter other than make a big press conference and announce it pubicly and take credit for keeping his campaign pledge, which he didn't. he did at one point advocate a much faster timetable.
What was the campaign pledge you are holding him to breaking? The faster timetable? Is he allowed to adjust based upon information he is allowed to gain only after he is President, or not?

Quote:
he made a big deal recently announcing that he was redirecting a particular strike force, that had been training for missions in Iraq for months, to Afghanistan. this was supposedly another campaign promise kept, to pull out of Iraq and re-focus on Afghanistan.
He is pulling out of Iraq and refocusing on Afghanistan. You are basing a "failure" on one unit? Let's look at all the units, and all the deployments.

Cannon said, "Do I have to make a list of things Obama or any other politician has said that they either have done a 180 degree reversal on or were simply not true? His ACTIONS speak louder than his words"

I don't see a complete lie or failure in the least. I see a very intelligent man trying very hard, in very difficult times, to adhere to and implement the course and idealogy he promised.

I am not very liberal, have always been GOP, but voted for Obama and am darn glad he's President versus McCain and Caribou Barbie. Do I support everything Obama wanted to do? Nope. Do I support the entire Democratic platform? Not in the least. I find a few planks downright scary. Did I figure, when I voted, that Obama wouldn't be able to do some of his campaign promises over his eight years for this reason or that? Yup. Like all the other Presidents I've voted for. Do I hold every candidate to every single campaign promise if elected? No. Things change. Do I want Obama to fail? Of course not - that would be stupid and ridiculous for my country. Our country is in too big a mess to put partisan politics before country. I want Obama to succeed. Greatly and impressively and repeatedly.

I find Limbaugh-like partisan nitpicking, a couple months into Obama's Presidency, the obvious Obama-hate, outside of discussion of these terrifying and major issues we have, and discussion of possible various solutions, to be narrow-minded anti-country idiocy.

I have lived through several Presidents I haven't voted for. The election of two of them was downright scary to me. One supports the country, and the President, and goes forward.

we can carry via wire, eh? ANd What the heck are you
