Just waiting for the typical rantings of knuckledragging racists to start, you learn to expect that on here….
It would be easier if they all just collectively blew their brains out and left the world a better place
http://d01.megashares.com/dl/01b3cca/newasnight.special.obamas.first.year.ws.pdtv.xvid-ftp.avi
Why @13? Because they believe this guy is screwing up the country? That he has tripled the national debt in one year, something that the last combined presidents have or could not do? That he has had his arse handed to him in three different elections (NJ-Mass-Va) and he STILL refuses to do what the people want him to do? Need I remind you that none other then Hillary Clinton herself stated on the Senate Floor that “Protesting the Governments actions when they are wrong is patriotic.” So why is it a good thing for you left leaning numbn^ts to attack a Republican President, and the republicans cannot do the same to a Democrat President? Oh and BTW, you would have to include Bill Clinton “If this was an earlier time, Obama would be bringing us coffee” Or Harry Reed “Obama is a light skinned negro with no negro dialect unless he wants to use it.” I guess that means that they are the knuckle dragging racists you are complaining about.
HOTFILE please!!!
THX!
At least he’s literate, unlike yourself.
Your sense of politics and history, as proven elsewhere, is pathetic.

Can someone post Megaupload link(s), please? Thanks in advance!
Proof Republicans are off their rocker.
In the opening comments from Obama dissenters.
“One day you will have to stand in front of God…” Er, yeah, sure buddy you roll with that! Religion? Faith? How about reality and fact instead.
“I don’t want this country to become Russia” Er, yeah sure Lady, great analogy.
What a lot of illogical nutbags!
Facing God and becoming Russia, LOL, get a grip and grow a brain!
It is really becoming a global embarrassment to be American these days, thanks to those stuck in ancient times. Talk about backward! My neighbor is just like these toothless, yokels and I am in New York City! He’s about as corn fed and backwoods schooled as it gets, probably out coon hunting with his dawg in Central Park today.
I see there are many Obama zombies here at Rlslog… Come on people wake up…

Right, some right wing rantings from an RNC controlled network offers all the real truth we should believe? Get real!
SBG owns those so called “news: agencies, SBG is owned and operated by the RNC. Get with the program!
Both of the articles are copied from other publications, that were put out for teh RNC to thwart copyright infringement.
John Timmer is as right wing and pro-propaganda as it gets, he’s a nutbag writing for a computer website that was started by the SBG group to push teh US agenda into other nations.
Get a grip!
What a brainwashed dufus!
Like I said… Zombies… Is this a RNC controlled network???

I jus hate the hype that was built up jus cos he was black. I don’t care if he’s purple! as long as he does a good job. He’s promised loadsa and hasn’t even delivered anything, i see more troops going in Afghanistan too.
Having said that i don’t blame the fella, el presidente is a thankless job in which u can do no right.
i like him
he did everything he could but the situation is too bad…
but he is still to conservativ….
america is a terrorist NATION, end of story!!
“i see more troops going in Afghanistan too.”
I suppose you were asleep or in a coma when he campaigned for several months saying how troops needed to get out of Iraq and more troops were needed in Afghanistan.
or
Perhaps you were also asleep when your history teacher told you they were two different countries.
or
You were reading the right wing rant handbook so you could repeat what all the other politically clueless people say.
@42 I suppose YOU were a sleep when he said
the health care debates would be public and broadcast on c-span
OR
when Guantanamo bay would be closed by January 20th of 2010
OR
unemployment wouldn’t go above 8% if we passed his stimulus monstrosity (it’s currently 10%)
OR
he would not have lobbyist in his administration
OR
all troops would be out of Iraq by January 2010
this list goes on and on
this guy is full of broken promises and that’s why he is a one term president just like Carter was before him
“You were reading the right wing rant handbook so you could repeat what all the other politically clueless people say.”
You need to get out of the left wing comeback book because you still have no clue what you are taking about.

1 year of utter fail ,
@16 — Common, everything you said is totally false, and you are repeating right-wing memes with no basis in fact.
Obama is NOT “tripled the national debt.” The national debt stands at $11 trillion — when Bush left office and Obama took was sworn in, the debt was around $10.2 trillion. But do you know who DOUBLED the debt? That’s right: George W. Bush. When he took office it stood at $5 trillion, and his administration spent $5 trillion during its time in office.
Now, you may be confusing the debt with the spending deficit, and even that Obama has not “tripled.” Bush’s deficit was around $1.2 trillion, including TARP I: Obama’s deficit is estimated to anywhere from $1.2 to $1.8 trillion, including the national stimulus bill.
Also, Obama has not had his “arse handed to him in three different elections.” Each of those elections had their own unique situations, and with the economy still recovering, this will ALWAYS hurt the incumbent party, which is the Democratic party. But, really, WHY would ANYONE want to vote for the Republican party, when that right-wing party is responsible for much of the woes in this nation?
It makes no sense, much your post.
I completely agree that “protesting the Governments actions when they are wrong is patriotic,” which is ironic you mention that, since Republicans and right-wingers spent the last decade accusing protesters of being traitors and unpatriotic. But if you are going to protest, at least have a GOOD reason: Obama has been in office for one year, and the Democrats have been trying to fix what Bush ruined over EIGHT YEARS. But it is amazing how Bush was given two terms in office, while people don’t even have patience for Obama’s ONE YEAR.
And you know how you right’wing numbnuts attack Obama? Not with valid arguments, but with rubbish, such as your “tripling the national debt,” or calling him “an angry black man,” or accusing him of being a Marxist, or a foreigner, or a “Muslim,” or “death panels,” or any number of personal attacks or idiotic talking points. If you are going to criticize Obama, USE REAL ARGUMENTS.
Heck, if anything, the people most unhappy with Obama are progressives.
Right-wingers have been using racist attacks since Obama ran for office, with right-wing heroes such as Limbaugh or Beck making all sorts of bigoted comments. BTW, there is no proof Clinton EVERY made that “coffee” comment, and Obama himself even said he didn’t care about Reid’s comment. Compare this to Beck’s comment about Obama “hating white people.”
Yes, people such as you are, indeed, knuckle-draggers.
@46 — Kook, you know what’s “fail”? Bush invading two countries, spending a trillion dollars on the war on terror, another $1.2 trillion on tax cuts for the wealthy, another trillion on a Medicare drug bill which benefited Big Pharm, ignoring the woes of Main Street while enriching Wall Street, ignoring information that Al-Qaida wanted to attack the United States, doing nothing to prevent one of the largest economic collapses in US history, and, all the while, wages for workers have flat-lined, the cost of health care has doubled, and the gap between the rich and poor has widened even further.
THAT is failure. But what’s pathetic is that people such as you are incapable of seeing the Big Picture. Especially since the GOP have done EVERYTHING possible to obstruct and attack Obama and the Democrats, and you wonder why the Obama’s first year has been difficult, considering everything he inherited?
Republicans and right-wingers are ridiculous.
@43 — Facts, your “facts” are baloney.
1. The health care debate was on C-SPAN. FOR MONTHS. In fact, this health care debate is the single, longest debate on ANY bill in recent history. Longer than the debate for the Patriot Act (which passed in the middle of the night and was NEVER on C-SPAN). Longer than the debate for the invasion or Iraq. In fact, MUCH longer than ANY REPUBLICAN INITIATIVE over the past eight years.
But that is the stupid irony: right-wingers complaining about stuff that they NEVER care about when the Republicans wwre doing it.
But yes, you could have watched the House and Senate health care debate at any time over the last 3/4 of 2008. The problem is that you didn’t choose to, so now you are inventing some talking point.
Also, Obama NEVER said that “Guantanamo bay would be closed by January 20th of 2010.” He NEVER said that. But he did sigh the order, last year on Jan. the 22nd, to close the camp. The problem he’s experiencing is what to do with the prisoners. Of course, you know who’s doing everything they can to slow down this process? The Republicans.
Of course, you say NOTHING about that.
Also, Obama and the Democrats were HOPING unemployment wouldn’t go over %8, but reality has a way of being very unruly and difficult to forecast. But it is known that the spending stimulus has saved thousands of jobs across the country. And it is also known that much of the money for the spending stimulus has not been spent and probably won’t be spent for another year or two.
Obama does have a few registered lobbyists in his administration, but it isn’t the same as having direct lobbyists, like we saw with Bush, who had dozens of them. Also, Pres. Obama later made a directive saying any former lobbyists were NOT eligible for his administration, and they have stuck by this directive. This is something you certainly have not seen from the right-wing, who are more than happy to shill for any corporation.
Obama NEVER said that “all troops will be out of Iraq by January 2010.” That is another totally false talking point. He did say they would be out in 2011, and that is when they are directed to be out, in May (I believe) of that year. The timeline was framed at eighteen months from a point in 2009.
BTW, Obama spent A LOT of time on his Iraq policy. Unlike the Republican party, he didn’t want to rush into a decision. War-time deliberations should have some gravity to them.
No, the list does not go on and on, because you are inventing these “facts.” This is typical for the right-wing and the Republicans, who repeatedly lie when it comes to Obama and Democrats, the “death panels” claim being one of the more obtuse, made-up points of attack.
@48, you really need to get hold of reality before you speak.
Obama is NOT “tripled the national debt.” The national debt stands at $11 trillion — when Bush left office and Obama took was sworn in, the debt was around $10.2 trillion. But do you know who DOUBLED the debt? That’s right: George W. Bush. When he took office it stood at $5 trillion, and his administration spent $5 trillion during its time in office.
(Um no, according to the US Treasury, the National Debt now stands at 12,331,320,571,073.97 with the OMB setting this at close to 19 Trillion, all done from the 5 trilion with Bush to between 12 and 19 trillion with Obama http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/ So even if you go with the 12 trillion, Obama has spent more in the first year then ALL the past presidents COMBINED!! That is factual and you would know that if you pulled your head out of the arse of the left wing!)
Also, Obama has not had his “arse handed to him in three different elections.” Each of those elections had their own unique situations, and with the economy still recovering, this will ALWAYS hurt the incumbent party, which is the Democratic party. But, really, WHY would ANYONE want to vote for the Republican party, when that right-wing party is responsible for much of the woes in this nation?
(Um, no again. Obama went to each of these states to campaign for the democrat, and in every state he has went to…they lost. Again this is fact and is easily validated. You must be drinking that left wing kool aide by the gallon)
It makes no sense, much your post.
(makes more then yours as I site sources…where are YOUR sources??)
Democrats have been trying to fix what Bush ruined over EIGHT YEARS. But it is amazing how Bush was given two terms in office, while people don’t even have patience for Obama’s ONE YEAR.
(when are you going to stop blaming Bush for Obamas actions? Three years after his first and only term? I mean MY GOD you people are still screaming about Reagan and he has been out of office for over 22 years and has been dead for close to 6 of them! You cannot blame anyone but Obama for his actions dude..grow up!)
And you know how you right’wing numbnuts attack Obama? Not with valid arguments, but with rubbish, such as your “tripling the national debt,” or calling him “an angry black man,” or accusing him of being a Marxist, or a foreigner, or a “Muslim,” or “death panels,” or any number of personal attacks or idiotic talking points. If you are going to criticize Obama, USE REAL ARGUMENTS.
(Never called him an angry black man nor a marxist nor a foreigner nor a muslum, so you can stop trying to rewrite what I said. And as for the Death panels in the health care bill..Sorry bucko, but when on page 228 of the house bill it clearly states that “a commission will decide if you will have a quality of life improvement after the medical procedure and then will decide if it will be paid for or not” dont know what you use for a brain or sense, but that sure sounds like a death panel to me and anyone else with half a brain.)
Heck, if anything, the people most unhappy with Obama are progressives.
(If you will read what I said, I already included them.)
Right-wingers have been using racist attacks since Obama ran for office, with right-wing heroes such as Limbaugh or Beck making all sorts of bigoted comments. BTW, there is no proof Clinton EVERY made that “coffee” comment, and Obama himself even said he didn’t care about Reid’s comment. Compare this to Beck’s comment about Obama “hating white people.”
“And left wingers like the Daily Kook/Huff-en-puffington/MSNBC/NY Times/The Nation/American Progressive and more then I care or have space to mention have not said worse? Are you stupid or what? How about Randy Rhodes on an Air America show calling for the killing of President Bush, and when called on it; then tried to claim it was a joke. NEWSFLASH, even joking about something like this is a federal felony! Or how bout the fat tub of lard Michael Moore saying that Cheney should be drug from his house and stoned to death with his wife and kids? Again a federal felony! You really have a deluded sense of reality as it seems that it is ok for the left to meake death threats but not the right. Newsflash moron…it is NOT ok for EITHER side to do this and the faster you grow up and see that, the better this world will get.)
Yes, people such as you are, indeed, knuckle-draggers.

You know, it is amazing how Obama (and the Democrats) has seemingly been given one year to fix everything. How ridiculous is that?
Of course, we know why it is: Because he’s black, and because he has a hint of being “foreign,” with his background. This is one reason why they hate him, a hatred that I never saw even directed towards Bush by the Left.
The right-wing will deny it, but that is the truth. Why else would they give George W. Bush a pass for EIGHT YEARS, while he was mangling this country, and they then spend Obama’s FIRST YEAR IN OFFICE, attacking him. lying about his political goals, and doing everything they can to obstruct his policies, while then turning around and saying, “See! He’s done nothing!”
If you want to blame anyone, blame the right-wing and their attack dogs.
Hell, I remember Fox News calling Obama a failure after he had been in office FOR WEEKS. FOR WEEKS. And now, Obama has only completed 1/4 of his term in office, and the right-wingnuts are out in full force.
The cognitive dissonance is unreal. Conservatives have lost their mind and gone over a cliff as a collective pack of lemmings.
Baculus you are a true idiot. Obama EXTENDED the Patriot Act…since you are obviously a complete left-wing zombie, here is one of your flunkies speaking on this same issue… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBdPEK5pNtE
mmm does that make you feel better???
People like you are the reason that our country is in shambles. Both Democrats AND Republicans are frauds, and the two party system has failed us all. Yet you still insist your party is better. Now Obama is trying to save his a$$ by going after the banks for the bailout funds. This is just a PR stunt to boost the democrats public opinion. The bailout should of never been in the first place… Get a life, and read the constitution moron.
DO you know that unemployment was an average of 5.5% during the Bush years? What is so horrible about that? All we’ve seen since Obama is up up up. And for the race card? guess what hotshot? most people aren’t accepting your premise anymore. We’re not taking that crap, it’s about his MARXIST/SOCIALIST policies-YES I SAID IT BECAUSE IT’S AS PLAIN AS THE NOSE ON YOUR DAMN FACE.
@49 you are misguided, please show me the video of the c-span health debates.. you can’t because it never happened! even the left wing nuts admit that much and the stimulus was a waste of money with no proof it saved anything but some congressmen’s jobs for getting taxpayer money for their pet projects, hell some of the money went to districts that don’t even exist!
and Obama indeed said Guantanamo would be closed within one year the day he was sworn in on January 20th 2009 now he wants to spend our tax money on lawyers to defend these terrorists and give them constitutional rights treating them like common criminals instead of enemy combatants.Fortunately the people have woken up and just took Ted Kennedy’s seat in the most liberal state in the union.Like I said Obama is another one term president like Carter
@50 Common Sense, you aren’t understanding the numbers.
@48, Yes, actually, as a correction, the Bush debt stood at $11 trillion when he left office, so that current “12,331,320,571,073.97″ sounds about right. Which means that Obama did NOT TRIPLE the debt, because it would have to be a debt of OVER THIRTY TRILLION for that to be true.
And the OMB does NOT put the “closer figure to “18 Trillion.” Your referring to the forecasted debt if the federal government continues on its current rate, including the spending stimulus.
When Bush came into office, the national debt was around $5.5 trillion. Look at this article:
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2009/jan/22/rahm-emanuel/5-trillion-added-national-debt-under-bush/
http://zfacts.com/p/318.html
If you notice with this article, during both Reagan and both Bush administrations, spending went up, and it went down during Clinton’s years in office: http://zfacts.com/p/318.html
This article puts the Bush debt as high as $7.7 trillion:
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2009/jan/22/rahm-emanuel/5-trillion-added-national-debt-under-bush/
Think about it: What was the largest bill passed, thus far, under Obama and the Democrats? The spending stimulus, which was, what, $850 to $900 billion. Thre is NOTHING else that Obama passed which would add trillions and trillions of dollars. Heck, even the health care bill is slotted to cost around $90 billion a year, at a TEN YEAR cost of $900 billion. A ten year cost that Republicans were freaking about, even though they didn’t care if Bush spent that amount in a tax break.
But, again, WHAT bills has the Obama administration passed which would add that huge amount that you are claiming?
Let’s use some logic here, shall we?
Also, again, you are not getting the numbers. The trillion debt is CUMULATIVE: The twelve trillion is NOT from Obama alone, but from EVERYTHING UP TO NOW. That is what you are seriously misunderstanding. It’s what the debt stands from ALL the previous years, plus his one year in office.
Again: Key word: cumulative. So, again — when Clinton left office, the national debt stood at $5.5 trillion or so. When Bush left, it stood around $11+ trillion, and now, with Obama, it stills at $12.2 trillion. It adds up, year after year. (Even the conservative hero Reagan added billilons to the debt.) It is one, big negative number to which each presidency has added.
Again – are you more clear on it?
That makes your entire point,”Obama has spent more in the first year then ALL the past presidents COMBINED!!” to be hopelessly false and misguided.
The $12.2 is factual, but you are misunderstanding it, because your own head is in your right-wing arse, and believing what it wants to believe. I mean, I cannot understand how you are inventing your “facts.”
No, Obama didn’t lose the races: THE ECONOMY DID. There is an old Bill Clinton phrase: IT’S THE ECONOMY, STUPID. That is what are affecting Democrats.
Also, I just cited my sources.
And WHY would we forget about Reagan and Bush? Why would we quit criticizing them? I mean, for God’s sake, people are still talking FDR! Hey, we also talk about Lincoln, and the Founding Fathers. Sorry, but WHY would we suddenly forget about history? That’s stupid. Especially if we are still living with the Bush legacy.
But it is funny, though, how you right-wingers ALWAYS talk about Reagan, but want the Left to “forget” about him. How Orwellian is that? It’s like some weird sort of double-thinking. And I NEVER said you called Obama that, but LOTS and LOTS of right-wingers do. Don’t get so defensive.

all bills will be posted online for 5 days before signing
eliminate capitol gains tax on small business
removal of 401k withdrawal penalties
earmark reform (the whole stimulus bill was one big earmark)
all combat troops in Iraq home in 16 months (which would have had all troops out by May 2010 instead of 2011 like he pledges now)
recognize the Armenian genocide
create tax credit for companies that create jobs
and on and on it goes
Sorry, but page 228 of the House Bill does NOT say what you claim. You just totally made up a talking point. Here is what is says, after a continuation from a previous page:
“PART 2—OTHER MEDICARE PART A PROVISIONS

NOTHING about death panels. In fact, the pages that people have always tried to say is a death panel NEVER says what they claim. In fact, one of the boards created, which would recommend the Medicare reimbursement, for physicians, specifically says that individual treatment CANNOT be rationed by such a panel.

Here is the irony: We already HAVE DEATH PANELS in the private health insurance world. Every year, thousands of patients are denied treatment by their insurers — these insurance companies are “rationing” the health care. These are real panels who decided if a patient should get coverage, by private companies. In fact, it is estimated that $45,000 Americans die every year due to a lack of health care access.
Why don’t you or Sarah Palin care about the REAL: death panels? The REAL death panels who deny treatment to Americans? It is crazy how you guys make up this “death panel” attack while ignoring the ones that really do exist.
It’s absurd. More cognitive dissonance.

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.3200:
Right-wingers are far worse than Obama. Heck, Obama already has had threats on his life, including people being arrested for REAL plots. And who is Randy Rhodes? Who cares about him? I never heard this guy and I have never heard of your ridiculous assertion.
What about Glenn Beck, and all of his demented murder fantasies? Fantasizing about poisoning Nancy Pelosi, and the half-dozen other times he talked about killing people.
Nothing I post even shows up anymore. Maybe this will.
liltomy18, you are an idiot. I NEVER said that Obama DIDN”T extend the Patriot act. Learn to read, or don’t pipe up with useless, stupid points.
Fail.
I wasn’t happy with Obama extending it, but that’s besides the point. After all, I don’t agree with Obama at all times and on all positions. This does change the fact that the debate on the Patriot Act was insufficient, and it was passed by the GOP and Bush. It was passed during a period of hysteriam, with fools such as you running around like chickens with their heads cut off.
If anyone needs to get a life, it’s you. And I bet you have never read the Constitution, you little twerp — unlike you, I actually went to college and took 200-level courses dealing with this stuff. I am sick of right-wingers like you always talking about the Constition without even knowing what’s in it. And it is fools like you who made this mess in the first place. At least the Democrats are tryng to do SOMETHING: GOing after the banks is a GOOD IDEA, but you’re too stupid to realize what needs to be done.
@55 — there are tons of videos on Youtube from the health care debate. Heck, I knew this because I ACTUALLY bothered to watch some of this debate (which was both interesting and boring):

Need I go on?
And the vote in the House:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwFzis6cRNo&feature=related
Do you guys actually believe what you post?
And what do you mean there’s no “proof” that jobs were saved by the spending stimulis? You can go to the Federal site which has this information:
http://www.recovery.gov/Pages/home.aspx
And here is the Texas state website on just subject for tracking the money and how it is spent:
http://www.window.state.tx.us/recovery/
Again, this stuff is out there IF YOU BOTHER TO LOOK. The problem is that so many people are having knee-jerk reactions and making the most dubious claims.
Also, it is a myth about the money “going to districts that didn’t exist.” Completely untrue. BTW, once money goes to the states, it is up to THEM to be responsible with the spending.
But, what’s odd is how you have NOTHING to say about the FIVE TRILLION spent by Bush, when you are talking about the spending stimulus. Odd and hypocritical. For example, what about the BILLIONS spent in Iraq — spent and LOST, with no means of accounting?
Hypocrite.
Also, MA has A LOT of independent voters. They have a reformed health care system and don’t need national reform, and they voted on the economy. Again, it’s the economy, stupid! (As the qoute goes . . .)
@55 — “Facts”: About Guantanamo, Obama wanted to close it within a year. As itis, he signed it into law. But it has been difficult, because it is easier said than done.
Here is the further irony: You, on one hand, is criticizing him for not closing it within a year, as he said he would, but then you are attacking him for wanting to “spend our tax money on lawyers to defend these terrorists and give them constitutional rights treating them like common criminals.”
Do you have a consistent point? I would think you would be HAPPY that he is rushing this process through, instead you want to attack him from both aingles. “He didn’t close the base, the bastard!” “He wants to close the base, the bastard!”
I mean, really, you are being a little riduculous.
Really, we have dealt with terrorists previously through the legal system — Timothy McVeigh ring a bell? What about all of the recen arrests of the various Muslim plots? What about the people involved with the original 1993 WTC bombing?
You’re acting as if our legal system is helpless against the terrorists, and that they are an evil never seen before in this world. I guess you forgot about the Nazis and their trials at the Hague, eh?
This is also the same manner that Europe deal with groups such as the Baader-Meinhof group, the Italian Red Army, and members of Black September.
You need to study the history of terrorism and undertand that the legal system is EXACTLY how we have punished terrorists. We have rule of law in this country.
The head of c-span himself called out Obama on his broken promise to broadcast the health debate
http://www.comcast.net/video/cspan-calls-out-obama/1377998338/
and according to recovery.gov 6.4 billion went to phantom districts
http://watchdog.org/2009/11/17/6-4-billion-stimulus-goes-to-phantom-districts/
“Do you have a consistent point? I would think you would be HAPPY that he is rushing this process through, instead you want to attack him from both aingles. “He didn’t close the base, the bastard!” “He wants to close the base, the bastard!”
it’s called military tribunals he can close the base without giving them Miranda rights and try them in military court since they were picked up on a battle field by our military outside of the USA.. Timothy McVeigh was an American citizen so his case is not the same.
The Nuremberg Trials were military tribunals!

Baculus, you can argue with yourself all day long. The fact is Obama is another George Bush. Even your fellow liberal idiots are starting to realize that. Thats too bad you wasted all that money on a college that obviously taught you a bunch of crap. Maybe you should read the bill of rights instead of believing everything everyone “teaches” you. So far the dems and Obama have moved to break every amendment in that bill except the 3rd amendment in one years time. So go crawl back under you rock idiot, people are finally starting to wake up and realize how pathetic people like you really are.
EPIC FAIL
Funny how Baculus is rambling on, defending Obama by all means necessary. When any opponent of the Dems speaks out, they try bringing back The Fairness Doctrine. But we are supposed to just sit here and just listen to his rambling liberal crap?
END THE FED
Ron Paul 2012!!!
@73
sounds good to me or any viable third party candidate, I’m sick of the right and left wing in this country
Baculus , grow TFU! Every single war we have been in was started by the Democrats. Every single monetary collapse was started by the Democrats (who was in power at the start of the Great Depression..GASP A Democrat. Who was in power when Barney Frank and Chris Dodd changed the housing regulations and caused the recession we are now in? GASP A Democrat named Bill Clinton! Source..US Library of Congress) Who lied to Reagan when they promised to cut spending if he agreed with them to raise taxes…GASP Why Tip O’Neil a DEMOCRAT! And what was the VERY first thing Obama did when elected…GASP RAISED TAXES!! You can claim I am misrepresenting the facts all you want, but for you to be right and the US Treasury-The National Debt Clock-OMB-CBO as well as myself to be wrong would be a chance of 1,285,982 SQUARED to 1. In short you would have a better chance in proving the semen stain on the blue dress was not Clintons then in proving my sources wrong. Sorta makes it seem you are suffering from a delusional mental capacity…and people suffering from this either run around in tinfoil hats or are in suits that tie in the back in rubber rooms on heavy medication. So which are you?
