I want to ask a few...
Question-How can you say the Republicans did not get what they wanted during the Bush years? 5yrs with no vetoes. Don't fall for the Conservative Values Fiscal Responsibility Argument PLEASE!
Question-Were those on the left during the Bush years promoting violence against our government? Have you watched FOX TABLOID News? I have no idea about you but it does not sound like the rhetoric coming from left to me!
"Wars based on lies" IRAQ was based on LIEs...Afghanistan was grossly mishandled.
(Side Note)If you buy into the religion of Alex Jones and/or the 9/11 Truth Club this question is not for you...As you do not have the ability to grasp reality much like those who worship Bronze Age Myths.
Question-Do you think it would have been better to have just attempted talks with the Taliban and Al-Qaeda after 9/11 instead of sending our military in?
Question-Do you think President Obama is the same as Bush when it comes to foreign policy and how he looks at the world? Did Bush and the Republicans even care about Middle East Peace until their last few months in Office?
Question-Do you think it would have been wise to leave the banks, financial institutions, Insurance Companies, and auto companies alone until next year while President Obama's budget was being debated in congress? If not, then why talk as if President Obama is favoring the banks over us? These are not separate problems that can be dealt with each by themselves. Remember the stool President Obama spoke of? Well, never mind you do not trust Obama, from what you and a growing number of people have said here on DU President Obama only cares about the rich and is no better than a Republican. Many of you have actually called him a Republican.
Question- Was the $800 Billion stimulus package for the banks or the largest attempt in the history of this country to try and help those of us hurting? If you missed this legislation try an Google "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act" or if you can stomach anything the Obama Administration has to say then go to
http://www.recovery.gov /
Must read and understand the above question before reading the next one...
Question-Do you think if President Obama just ignored the banks and the credit crunch as so many of you and the (out of power) Republicans wanted that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act would have any impact whatsoever?
Question-Was Obama's $275 Billion Housing Plan not for us? I personally know two families that this plan not only saved them money but saved them from being homeless! DO YOU REMEMBER THE RANT BY RICK SANTELLI and the REPUBLICANS? Look at what that plan has already done for so many of us ordinary Americans! Does the success of this program matter to you? Or does it bother you, make you really MAD that banks are making money off refinancing so many homes?
Question- WHY IS THERE NO INTEREST or POST ABOUT ALL THE HISTORIC MOVES PRESIDENT OBAMA HAS ALREADY DONE FOR US?
Question-WHY IS IT THAT WE ARE ONLY 3 MONTHS INTO PRESIDENT OBAMA'S 4YRS TERM AND MANY HERE SAY AND ARGUE THAT OBAMA IS NO BETTER THAN REPUBLICANS? ...Or that he is in fact a Republican as many have said.
QUESTION-WHAT WOULD THE COUNTRY LOOK LIKE RIGHT NOW WITH REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT JOHN MCCAIN AND HIS BRONZE AGE DARLING SARAH PALIN? Spending freeze anyone? More tax breaks for the top 5% anyone? Bronze Age laws banning anything Sarah Palin thinks is not moral?
STATEMENT-I am very proud of the job President Obama is doing! I could care less if the COOL thing to do here on DU is to ignore the FACTS and join Rush, Sean , Glenn and the rest of FOX News and label President Obama a failure NOT EVEN MONTHS INTO HIS TERM. I understand these are hard times I was dropped by my Insurance Company (Principal Financial) because I cost to much after a devastating Spinal Cord Injury but I refuse to let my anger override my ability to understand reality! President Obama does not favor the rich over us and those who say he does are WRONG!
I am new here and I love this forum...However, I am growing very confused as to what it is most of you here want? Questioning our leaders is a MUST but getting worked up into a mindless mob does nothing! Look at the TEA BAGGERS!
I know I will be attacked with pick forks, tar & feathered, and possible hung for saying ASKING QUESTIONS that do not conform to the MOB but I am looking at the BIG PICTURE despite how bad I personally need some relief.
I am 100% behind OUR President right now, I will continue to drink the Kool-Aid as it is tasting really SWEET to me! I think a growing number of people are losing sight of what Obama has already done and is trying hard to get done through his historic budget proposal. And to compare the Bush years and the rhetoric from the left during those years to what the Bronze Age thinking freaks are doing on the right is INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW MANY LEFT WING LIBERALS WENT ON KILLING SPREES DUE TO RUMORS SPREAD BY THE LEFT WING LIBERAL BIAS MEDIA?
Seriously, what happened to critical thinking and rational thought here on DU that made me want more than anything to be a part of?
