  • wow..love the video..Thanks a lot!

  • There will never be another President Like President Kennedy.

  • Wow i thought Obama was going to be the next FDR ..GUESS NOT

  • Obama, O Annointed One, speak truth to us from your anointed infallible lips!! Why have you accomplished absolutely nothing in your time in office? Why cant you see disaster and danger approaching? Our faith in faltering, O Exalted One!!

  • America's Middle Class Has Become Globalization's Loser!

  • Globaloney

  • Its Called Globaloney

  • A strong middle class has been yelling at the democrats for 2 months now...

    A weak government is finally aware they will not be re-elected in 2010 if they shove this krap through...

    A strong middle class is what I'm counting on. Those are the ones that will vote this asshole and his buddies out of office over the next 3 years... YES !!!

  • When you see the results of your new goverment we will all see ho was right. Personally I dont care who or what the president is. It is what he does that matter.

    good luck from Norway

  • Hey Plainlake...You don't care who or what the president is?

    We don't care who or what the fuck you are in Norway so shut the fuck up and talk about your own government..

  • Ever heard about foreign policies?

    Somehow alot of Americans seem to forget they are part of the world.

    We just had a wordwide economical downfall because you have too many stupid people and banks that exploit them.

    Personally I live in a country with a very strong middle class, and know it works.

    So excuse me for showing interest in how the biggest nuclear and military power is governed. AND GET A BIT FRUSTRATET WHEN PEOPLE THINK HIS SKIN COLOUR IS MOST IMPORTANT.

  • plainlake: Amerikan are socialist pigs and worthless. ther're not what they once was. My country has a strong economic and educated people. They fail to study history.

    Amerika has rusted nuke that our useless and their military are like toothfairy compare to mine. Germany if need help will build France tank and for return for whatever we need.

  • Fix some grammar plz.. its hard to understand what you were trying to point out.

  • "A Strong Middle Class = A Strong America" HA! Then why doesn't the White House explain discharging debt. What a bunch of crap

  • please tell me how this cap and trade bill that obama wants to pass is going to help the middle class? it's going to DESTROY the middle class.

  • You got it! THAT is the real objective. Their WORDS are smoke screen

  • This commie asshole wants to turn the middle class into a NGGR class. Fk him AND You for voting for this KENYAN SCUM.

  • fuck the middle classes.

  • Watch "The Obama Deception" in HQ! This is the truth about Obama that you must know!

  • Better get the workin' suckers back to work before they realize the American Dream is just that...

  • The Republican Party's belief is that only the very, very wealthy matter. The rest of us paycheck slobs should just shut up and take table scraps.

  • Comment removed

  • Question! If you tear down the Upper Class who is going to be left to support the lower class?

  • Nobody is talking about tearing down the upper classes.

  • And what do you think imposing insane taxes on Higher Income Earners is?

  • The growing homeless. They don't have any internet access. Please, let's make sure they have food, bathrooms, showers, laundry service, a place to sleep safely! I can't imagine what it would be like to live in a car, or on the street. They are the most important people right now. This is triage. They need help more than anyone. This condition is a shame for the wealthiest nation on earth!

  • I agree about giving help to those who need it but ONLY to those who are actively, and legitimately seeking help. A few too many of these homeless people are homeless not simply because they are down on their luck but because of their own drug, alcohol, or drug addictions. This is why I refuse to give money to homeless people. It's the seame reason why they don't give lung transplants to chronic smokers.

  • agreed.

  • go watch the movie The Obama deception... available on youtube

  • Oh, please. Give me a break.

  • So yeah.. to some of you idiots who haven't figured it out yet.. Mccain Lost. Obama is our amazing president. And if you don't like it, suck it.

  • Yeah, and you wish to aprove gay marriage, wich is not gonna happen.

  • LOL. And you think people CHOOSE to be gay? why would someone choose dick? Choose to get their ass beat? Choose to get cheated out of their rights? Choose to have to deal with fuckers like you everyday Oilbitch?

  • I say this over and over again people He is by far the best president of the United States that we have had in a long time. Sure we all will have our differences. But we have to realize he has given his office the transparency needed to keep our trust. GOD BLESS THE PRESIDENT AND THE USA

  • Does any body else wish the president would say, "So let it be written, so let it be done." when he signs an executive order like this? Maybe someday we'll finally have a geek president.

  • Keep top loading the ship of state and like any ship, it will capsize. Only with a large middle class and a small well controlled upper class and a poor class that has real hopes of rising from poverty can any nation hope to survive. Any other model equals certain doom.

  • Thank God his middle class task force has no members who are middle class. But hey, no one wants to work with people they hate.

  • I rated this 1 star. Don't blame me, I voted for McCain.

  • Pay attention to those who argue with croakings of fear:

    "Do not be frightened into the surrender of [true principles] by the alarms of the timid, or the croakings of wealth against the ascendency of the people."

    - Thomas Jefferson

  • Outsource US prisons not US jobs

    load them up and ship them to China or India

    out of 20 million jailers costing 60-200 K a year we can save a fortune

  • Stalin did that. It was effective.

    I lived in Siberia. Much fear there.

  • He even writes left handed.

  • lol what is wrong with writing with your left hand

  • Obama lied, democracy died.

  • Does anybody know what thegas4free.blogspot,com is that Obama has been talking about?

  • Google: "1980 Carter alcohol security act." There you will find proof of a national biofuel study that deemed Sweet Sorghum as the best biofuel (to produce Aquahol, which is 800% more efficient than ethanol).

    Google "PES Tectane" to learn much more.

    Why was Ethanol chosen over Aquahol? Why didnt we listen to our own government research from the Dept. of Agriculture and chose the right energy policy changes in 1984? Weve paid for the research only to let the corn lobby dictate policy.

  • Wind and solar power ARE forms of free energy. Do you pay for the sun to shine or the wind to blow? No.

    What you DO pay for (initially) is the solar PV panels or wind generator. Unfortunately, the ROI duration is long and not cost effective in most cases for residents. But ZPE devices are far cheaper & far more powerful that solar & wind & can pay for themselves in less than a year.

    Google PES Millennial Motor, PES TWM Motor, or Tom Bearden MEG, or PlanetEnergy (dot) com for more info.

  • Dumbama got another record. The most people unemployed in the US ever. Go Dumbama.

  • Welcome to the Social States of America! Now shut up and show me your dang PAPERS!!!!!!!!!!

  • america cant have middle clas when all is runed by yews!free federal reserves u idiots!!!

  • Question How are we going to have a strong Middle class (People who rely on there being jobs to be had) when the Upper class (people who creat buisness and ergo jobs) is going to get taxed to high hell which will massivly hurt their bottom line and hurt their hiring potential?

  • thebluemaggot, you've stated one of the biggest economic myths ever, that the rich shouldn't pay more taxes or they won't create jobs.

    The consumers create jobs by buying stuff. Period. No company will create jobs to make a product without a demand for it. And there won't be a demand without a huge base of consumers with money leftover after buy necessities.

    If lower taxes for the rich boosted the economy, why didn't Bush's tax cuts work?

    Think, don't be sheepish.

  • "that the rich shouldn't pay more taxes or they won't create jobs." Oh really! well lets analyze this for a sec OK. GM and toyota both sold almost the same amount of cars last year yet GM lost 6 billion while toyota made money, yet gm vehicles cost more on average than toyotas. Toyota gets a tax break that GM does not just for being a foreign buisness. GM is also forced to use ONLY Union workers wich is a tax in and of itself.

  • "If lower taxes for the rich boosted the economy, why didn't Bush's tax cuts work" Funny how you say that when under Bush we had the highest employment rate as well as the lowest unemployment rate the country has ever seen. Also under bush the country was making more tax revenue than during both of Clintons 2 terms.

  • thebluemaggot, I don't get how your quote about GM vs. Toyota's profit margins proved tax breaks for the rich boost the economy. And Bush's employment rate was high at the beg. of his term because Clinton's great economy provided jobs.

    The tax revenue under Bush was the lowest as share of GDP since the 50's.

  • does anybody know what thegas4free.blogspot,com is that Obama has been talking about?

  • I love the people from Hollywood that have visited me and talked about making movies about my life.

    Today seven independent film makers who went to Pepperdine University met me at the Four Season Hotel over coffee and a great cigar.

    I am scheduled to speak with them Monday morning.

    They are amazed how foolish many are since HBO was so brave and daring and knew that opportunity with the American Patriot Jeff Fisher will be a winning and very profitable venture.

    Well yes it should be

    QUOTE:"...then the poor, hard-working immigrants are the backbone..."

    --

    No, the feed off the welfare system the middle class funds!

  • Great - however, as a member of the middle class, alot of us as our salary rose, did not pursue higher education, more training, although the opportunity has been there. Many want to be/and have been grandfathered into higher positions. Others went back to college, grad school, are not promoted, We have student loans $50,000 or more and the ones who stopped at high school sitting in postions, that you are suppose to have Masters Degrees, while we are out looking for new jobs! This sucks!

  • Joe Biden was kinda mumbly.

  • does anybody know what thegas4free.blogspot,com is that Obama has been talking about?

  • Go Barack Obama! I know that you can change anything and make things better :)

  • We've spent the last eight years with an administration that stressed giving only the rich class advantages and benefits. This succeeded in making them richer but making the nation as a whole poorer and dragging the economy down as the poor class grew while the middle class shrunk.

    Thank goodness that era of 'trickle down' economic policies is over for now.

  • sophiemarie - We've spent the last eight years with an administration that stressed giving only the rich class advantages and benefits. This succeeded in making them richer but making the nation as a whole poorer and dragging the economy down as the poor class grew while the middle class shrunk

    So when Bush did it you were against it but when Obama does it is a great idea? Read the stimulus. No "change", more of the same. WAKE UP!

  • How do you read the stimulus package as benefitting the rich? Come on, be honest, you haven't read it.

    Helping the unemployed, helping the state's not go bankrupt, repairing infrastructure and weatherizing schools and public buildings to create jobs, etc. doesn't seem like a bill for the rich. Why do you think so many rich Repubs are against it? Wake up, yourself.

  • Ok I'll be honest I have read a good majority of the stimulus as I also read Bush's bailout. You can find it on line, read it for yourself. The democrats drafted and pushed both bills and promised they would help. the 1st didn't and the second won't. Last I checked Pelosi, Obama, Biden, Clinton etc are rich as well. If you want to know why repubs are against watch "Jim DeMint stimulus" on youtube. I'll say it again WAKE UP!! (FYI I am not Republican, I am American!)

  • The task force on middle-class working families is an excellent idea. Joe Biden is a great choice to lead this endeavor.

    I'm so pleased that we have a president who understands if the middle class grows and prospers, so does the nation. That Obama also equates a strong middle class with a strong labor movement shows he truly understands how a national economy works.

  • Some small businesses are going out of business. The big corporations are getting bailed out with my money. Cold calling on the phone is the BEST WAY to get an job interview.

    WE NEED JOBS IN AMERICA NOW. WE NEED HOMELAND Safety NOW. These issues are the present, they are very important.

  • I LOVE YOU!

  • Love = Unity

    Fear = Separation

    One becomes what one condemns or blesses.

    All is a reflection of self.

    Life is a hall of mirrors.

    Freewill is the great gift.

    Darkness may only wield wickedness through hearts of contempt; therefore condemn not for thou would become what thou condemneth. Bless that which is distorted, heal the pain.

    What doth thou choose?

    Love over Fear.

  • Njat....whoever sent me a message on here, whatever your name is, SHUT THE FUCK UP

  • Why don't we stop all paychecks to Congress so they understand the urgency of the situation. Let's put them in the same boat as the rest of the country. They can deliberate for years with pay or a few days without.

  • Allow me to repost:

    President Obama Should Act Like He Won by Thomas Frank

    w w w. youtube . com /watch?v=3OopE3M5vU4

  • does the number of working class people fit the same figure that is needed for a proper NWO style depopulation culling?? then will the middle class become the new working class? happy happy sunny day in shit city washington! ) FUCK THE NWO!!!!!!!!

  • mr president why do you leave out mention of 100 million lower class of this country, selective amnesia, hopeless to save? i am happy to see that the labour unions are strong enough and using tacktics as lobbying to put pressure on elected officials, or otherwise small people are always forgotten

  • my previous comments were in response to that idiot SenatorHarold. please forgive me if i offended you

  • So Comrade Obama, are you ready for the Revolution?

  • Where are all these freakies talking about socialism coming from?

    This crisis is certainly creating social egality as is flattening everyone's income and chances.

    Don't strenghthen the working class and America will go bankrupt

  • youre country has a socialist agenda, thats why they are taking all your money away from you and intergrating you with mexico and canada with the NAU. you live in a dictatorship under martial law much to your disbelief, that is 100% the truth. as much as youd like to think we, the tin foil hat wearing brigade are to subvert you, it is in fact global governments that are in the business of conditioning an ever increasingly aware society that are best kept ignorant of there reality. wake up now!

  • also as i understand it, it is the middle and upper middle classes who pose the greatest threat to the nwo, with then own revulsion, intelligence and facilities to carry out a union of considerable threat to anything they deem opposing there own interests? this 'bailout' to the middle class is just as doomed as it has been to the banks and i think they are only too aware of obamas fraudulent attempt at cushioning there demise.

  • @abstractduk:

    Well, the NWO Elites use the Middle Class for their own secret purposes now. The Middle Class would be foolish to believe otherwise. So you are on the right track.

    However, I believe in Obama none of the less until it is proven that he really is a puppet of the NWO...

  • It's like a virtual wargame:

    The enemies of the New World Order are trying their best to weaken the Middle Class by bringing down the american economy and so on and on. It's like domino effect. One falls, next falls, etc....

    The NWO is compensating now by the strengthening the middle class and boosting their power up in order to weaken its enemies.

    The enemies know that and will try a workaround now...

    I am good, eh. I figured all this out myself. :)

  • Obama is smart. Strengthening the middle class will decrease racism and weaken national socialist propaganda, because most racists come from middle class. If you make them happy by giving them jobs they won't fight against the elite anymore.

    Hitler was middle-class too before he became chancellor in 1933. The Elite hated Hitler, but Hitler said: If you don't make me become chancellor I will set up the poor class against you. (that's because poor people hate elite)

    Clever politics. ;)

  • A strong middle class = a strong america

    E=MC²

  • hmm, i thought it was the intention that the middle classe become as poor as the working classes, thus passing on there wealth to the poor and further distancing them from becoming an uppermiddle class? maybe i have misunderstood your elitist agenda of the NWO completely wrong..? time will tell..very soon i fear not!! fuck the NWO. fuck Obama! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!

  • @abstractduk:

    If you thought that NWO intended to make the middle class vanish then you haven't understood the NWO agenda. The NWO is the Elite and it needs the Middle Class as a"block" or "wall" between the few in the elite and the many in the poor population.

    As I said, Hitler understood this relationship perfectly and knew how to force the Elite to allow him make what he wanted to do.

    In other words, without a Middle Class the Elite has no power over the poor population!

  • i understand for sure, but this middle class wall is a temporary arrangement until they have a totalitarian police state in full control of everyone, you are talking about the role of the middle class as it is now and has been in recent history, but in the elitist pyramid models there is no room for the middle classes, it will be only slaves and masters for sure..? other than purchasing power i dont see how the middle class provide any service to those at the top?

  • your government essentially borrows money from the rothschilds who are also the same people who are buying your cheap house and the banks that are failing around you. there is NO saving the economy because your government wants it to fail so they can enslave you and have greater control of whatever money they do let you use. like i said, your government is a the mercy of the rothschilds will and you should question your government about this and just see for yourselves how deep the lies go.

  • The republicans never cared about getting the dems on board, so why should the dems care about getting the republicans?

    Republican plans have failed just like democrat plans. Why would people care more about failed dem plans than all the failed repub plans?

    But I already know the reason. The repubs are a bunch of bullies, like you, and the people are scared of them. FU.

  • President Bush DID genuinely include the Democrats. He let Kennedy write the education bill with tremendous increases in spending.

  • The repubs did let the dems have control over a few things, but this stimulus package is going to be a huge deal for Obama. He already made some concessions to the repubs in the bill, but NONE of them would still vote for it.

    The repubs are expecting him to give them whatever they want and that isn't what's going to happen and will screw them in the long run. Obama needs to do it how he wants, and if it works then he gets the credit. Those that didn't go along will get what is coming to them

  • The Republicans are standing on principle. What President Obama wants to do is NOT stimulus but a huge amount of spending as payback to the unions and the groups that elected him. He has given Republicans no reason to vote for this, so they did not.

    There has been no real attempt at bi-partisanship. The Democrats under President Obama are as partisan as they have ever been. They can claim anything they want, and the media will echo it. The truth is a different matter.

  • zionists = the new nazis

  • Just don't get caught up in the "bipartisan" BS. The republicans never cared about being bipartisan. All the American people care about is if you get the job done well.

    If the republicans don't help out, and your plan works, they will pay for being against your plan. Don't worry about getting them on board. They will just look more idiotic when they didn't support a good plan.

  • shops to fixing these things etc. Why not? The US has given billions of dollars to companies spending cash on private jets and buying $8,000 bottles of wine??? Give it to the people not the companies. The companies made a mistake and bad investment. Give the money to the people.

    AND OMG So cool he is left handed??? Like me. :) So why use so many pens??? :P Save money on that 1st. :) hehe

  • I was hoping the Us people will be given $600 billion dollars or every citizens get $1,800 who are over 18 years old. And single moms are given money. And let them spend the money in the US and this should reboot the economy by people spending money at the stores, by having more people coming into the stores to work, orders being made, if orders are made then people will get jobs back to make products, and shipping company, gas companies, insurance, trucks, oil changes,

  • I still can't believe he is president! SO HAPPY!! OBAMA ROCKS! 2009-2017!!! :) BABY. America should build homes, make something out of nothing, just to give out jobs. Make solar cells, wind power give jobs. American dream :( I'm having Nightmares here for years.

  • That was such a good video! haha! Good job! I like the music in the background too. What was the song you used?

  • Increased productivity does not mean you are working 20% harder. It means that the company increased it's efficiency by 20%.

  • when they say productivity went up 20 % ...

    that means the workers did 20% more production and for whatever the hell their pay increase was. which obviously was less than 20 %

    they do it at my work,, Turn up the speeds they say. but my pay's speed"" stays the same... hmmmm..... Thats Productivity my friends.

  • are you still here? thought i told you to fuck off, you retarded anus brain

    fuck you, knob jockey, may your children be born with 9 toes

  • im jew from israel

    thanks obama

  • Racist cur. Go f**k yourself.

    P.S. Im not muslim and I found that offensive.

  • This is the kind of attitude that perpetuates the violence in the Middle East. Were it in my power, I would knock together the heads of every hatemonger in the region from either side and yell "Knock it off!"

    In my opinion, your embrace of hatrid as mandate to perpetuate more hatrid is revolting. You need to fight? You need to defend yourself? Fair enough, no one doubts such necessities. But such hatrid is the domain of the savage-mind, not of the civil-mind.

    I prey for your heart to turn.

  • You are, of course, entitled to your opinion and, under the first ammendment, entitled to speak whatever you wish.

    However, I do hope you realize that the use of such inflamatory language does tend to invite attacks against your character. While ad-homenims are rarely a valid argument in themselves, they are non-the-less effective at weakening arguments such as this.

    Such things only lead to a cycle of self-confirmation and additional hatrid that will leave you feeling unfulfilled.

  • He's not a racist. Do you even know what the hell you're talking about? Shut the fuck up your ignorant bastard

  • I am curious as to how you determine if a position is "firm ground" or not. Further, what is a firm ground in this context?

  • In that case, please define for me "Americans", "Asians", and "Africians". By what criteria do you distinguish them from one another?

  • It is obvious that you are only interested in playing games.

    If you are getting paid to write your nonsense the biggest fool is the one paying you.

    But, why are you getting paid to write nonsense on YouTube in the 1st place?

    That's easy. Because you couldn't cut it in anything else. Especially compared to my resume. Some work hard. Others chase the girls.

  • If you are refering to my replies, I simply ask you to defend the logic behind your aguments so I can better understand the basis for them.

    Since jobs are so important to you, I will tell you that I work as a software engineer. I worked very hard to get this far and intend to work hard to get even further. However, the company that I work for recruits from all over the world and sponsors people to immigrate here on the basis of merit. Given that, I find your argument contrary to my experince.

  • If your company is in the U.S. I find that your company's patriotism is un-American. You apparently have problems with American technical personnal. Why don't you leave?

    Laws are now being drawn up that will make it a felony for any company in the U.S. to hire foreigners instead of the American workers. Why shouldn't it be?

    Foreign workers are just the ones to make to OWN country better.

    You an engineer? I doubt that since you would know there's a limit to everything, including jobs!

  • The company that I work for is based in the US and I was born in a hospital less than a mile from the main corporate campus. So I would say that I am a fairly native employee here. As for the limit on jobs, that is not necessarily the case. The amount of jobs depends on the expansion of the company and that depends on the expansion of the economy, national and global. Native-born personel have the same odds of getting hired here as non-native born personel (most of whom become US citizens.)

  • You're a spaz. If anyone is getting paid to say stupid things on YouTube  it's you.

    Why? That's easy, because no one in the real world gives a damn about what you have to say, so your worthless ideas and ignorant opinions explode out of you like verbal diarrhea over the internet.

  • ** this is in response to njattack

  • Yeah, youre right... Republicans NEVER vote for legislation to allow illegal aliens to continue to enter the country and work (for their large corporations) on the cheap

  • On the contrary the GOP enacted almost every bill to put Americans out of work. I have always stated that Bush & his corrupt gang should be tried for TREASON.

    The GOP is the major culprit. African boy is simply following suit. I voted for the Consititution Party candidate, Chuck Baldwin for prez.

    The U.S. economy deteriorated because of the anti-American policies enacted in D.C. by both of the corrupt parties. The depression is man-made not natural as in 1929.

  • @njattack A global integrated market is the way of the future. No matter what laws the U.S. passes they can't stop outsourcing. As a senior manager I can tell you it's far too integrated in our corporate strategies to remove now. The United States tried to Tax investment in the EU and the EU demanded they remove the tax and got what they demanded. You might not like it, but times are changing and there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop it.

  • No, I'm afraid not. Outsourcing is not the problem. It's insourcing, the influx of unwanted & unneeded foreigners into the U.S that is the major problem.  As long as the U.S. is a sovereign country & as long as some spark of democracy remains, the illegal aliens, H-1B foreigners will be deported back to their own country; and all immigration will be stopped.

    That's the SOURCE of America's problem.

    A world wide trade of goods, not people is the future.

  • interesting comment, but are you not aware of the North American Union? opening the borders between the u.s and mexico and canada? your new currency, the 'amero'? ...its all happening friend.

  • Haha, that was sarcasm.... I tired to make that obvious... I failed : (

  • because none of that is true...

  • njattack, if you would be so kind, would you please define the term "double-standard" for me?

  • No, Rich elites want a strong middle class because they are a protection buffer between the privilege of elites & the people, ie the working class.

    The Middle Class has a vested interest in keeping the working class down so that they can continue to enjoy the crumbs swept off the table by the privileged elites.

    A strong middle class only reinforces the positions of the privileged few.

  • lets not forget that the comfortable standard of living most Americans enjoy is directly the result of the hard work and sacrifice of millions on picket lines. If they didn't put their families on the line especially during the bloodiest first decade, no one would be living so well. we are all interconnected. Don't let the corporate propaganda machine and it fear of fair wages and health benefits pollute your mind with its anti union swill.

  • The Unions cut their own throats. They have no one to blame but themselves. They are the ones who have driven the jobs overseas.

  • nobody had anything negative to say about unions and collective bargaining labor pools until Regan broke up the air traffic control union. since that time people like your self have been indoctrinated by anti-union propaganda to justify a covert war on a system that favored the working class. Unions did not export jobs government deregulation and cheaply had overseas labor. if you really think Unions are the problem, go volunteer to work for less than minimum wage, with out benefits, or shut up.

  • "nobody had anything negative to say about unions [...] until Reagan broke up the air traffic control union"? Did you sleep through US History class, or are you being facetious to try to make a point?

  • naw, more like they lie, I lie.

  • a strong slave class = a stronger ownership class

  • The middle class has no power down south because Obama's FEMA failed miserably. Is this an indication that Obama hates white people as what was said about Bush when he did almost as poor of a job with Katrina or is it just that Obama is incompetant?

    PEOPLE FROZE WHILE OBAMA DOZED!

  • This is hilarious. You're trying to compare Katrina to the current weather??? Seriously? When about 50 odd people have died, some of their own fault? You're comparing that to the biggest national disaster in history?

    Wow. This is the same political bs that lost McCain the election.

  • MILLIONS more people were effected by the ice storm then by Katrina. MILLIONS are without power still in the dead of winter. Obama's FEMA is leaving them to die. Oh the humanity! Obama must hate white people because of this and because he wants to kill them in Afganastan! Impeach Obama! (Sorry just recycling some left over Bush bashing.)

  • May God God us as Americans to put our faith, not in a man but rather in the process and principals of our constitution. We are not a monarchy, we are a people of collective and universally combined principles outlined in our founding documents. I wish the Country well. I hope those in the White house and Congress don not usurp the voice or power or goodwill of the people. It is my hope they excercise prudence and accountability to not just the people but ultimately to God Himself.

  • Well said!

    Though I hope would include non-believers too :)

  • Actually, about one million were estimated to be affected. While Katrina affected the nation as a whole.

    How?

    Well, for one thing, the whole south, I REPEAT THE WHOLE SOUTHERN REGION, was affected by the storm itself and it's outerbands, not to mention the ensuing floods. Also, the refineries were hard hit, making gas sky rocket. Remember that price in gas? Katrina.

  • If Katrina "THE WHOLE SOUTHERN REGION" like the ice storm then why did people like you use it as an excuse to call Bush a racist and why isn't that same logic now valid for Obama? You guys defined the playing field now we are just playing on it. Get used to it.

  • Who said I called him a racist? Way to generalize their buddy.

    It's simple really, it's not what Bush did during the disaster, it's what he did AFTER. Even now, there are parts of the south that are devastated, people who had to relocate permanently.

    Aside from that, Bush was in the Presidents seat for how long when Katrina hit? Obama just took the presidency.

    But keep arguing the facts. It's nice.
