  • Republicans was OK to raise the debt ceiling for President Bush and to give him blank checks to invade Iraq. But when President Obama needs money to finance the government (which includes all of the spending bills + tax cuts the Bush Administration implemented) Congress refuse. So it is okay to use tax payer money to invade a country than to use tax payer money on TARP or other stimulus packages? Govt has to run budget deficits in a recession, it's normally and imperative.

  • this a great video, i found this one on chatitout (.com) website

  • S&P stated in their rationale that "Political brinksmanship" (AKA "when the Tea Party almost forced us to default") was the main reason for the downgrade. I don't associate myself with either party...but republicans in are fighting Obama on every action he tries to take, making it hard for him to do anything. I'm sick of political parties looking out for themselves and not our country as a whole. It's sickening.

  • Gary Johnson is the best presidential candidate for the american people. He has the most logical and ethical economic solutions for this nation as a whole. I ask that you at least research him, and if you do not, if I did know you, I'd have to ask, why are you voting when you do not have all the facts? Why vote only for your own sake instead of for the sake of our nation and the greater good? Take some time and read, and see what else is out there? besides what the media tells you

  • It was the Republicans who brought about the downgrade as anyone who actually followed the story knows.

    OBAMA 2012

  • 10 years ago, we had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash.

    Now, we have no JOBS, no HOPE, and no CASH :-(

    You can thank Obummer for that!

  • Obama 2012... with the Robin Hood concept take from the rich and give to the poor. Republican policies are what started the recession and got us into two wars at the same time bankrupting the country with the deficit.

  • so the rating agencies weren't tough enough on mortgage backed securities but this one was too tough on the US federal government. This clown should be impeached for running an illegal daycare.

  • Tea Party downgrade

    This AstroTurf organization works only for the interests of the ultra-wealthy. The entire Republican Party has become the enemy of the Middle Class. Obama, on the other hand, wants to raise taxes on the rich so we can reduce the deficit. He refuses to allow Republicans to continue to rape the Middle Class in order to make the rich even richer.

    OBAMA 2012

  • Sutircomed keep it comin!!!!! Ya said it best.. Obama 2012,13,14 15

  • If Obama was Obama, but he was white and not good at giving speeches, he would still be the same person. Would any one have voted for him? Face it, he's smoke and mirrors, people fell for the first black president thing, and marvelled at his ability to give a speech with no discernable negroe dialect, we are screwed with this guy leading the nation, he's affecting the whole world, and not in a good way. Anyone but Obama in 2012.98`

  • @jcasey82 That's unfair to chimps everywhere, even that one that ate the lady's face and fingers.

  • President Barack Obama is now the undisputed “Worst President in U.S. History.” He can place this award on his mantle next to the Nobel Peace Prize. :-(

    As President, it is clear that Barack Obama is dangerously in over his head for he has no executive experience, no business experience, and no real world experience. As a Chicago community organizer, he has been thrust into the most important position in the world without the necessary skills to handle this crisis.

    SOMEONE ELSE 2012! :-)

  • @paulstrong123 Sir, How you dare to show facts about a black president?. You must be definitively a racist. Everybody knows that blacks could not do wrong.

  • @paulstrong123

    I love how everyone points the finger at Democrats but when a Republican screws up it is obviously okay. Democrats do screw up but so do Republicans, if you have to blame someone be fair!! GOP controlled House+Democrat controlled Senate + White House. Blame both parties. By the way, no one was worse than President Warren G Harding. President Obama is actually not all that bad, he has some bad decisions but I think his predecessor was more of a spender than he is.

  • Epic Failure. !!!

  • You better get ready to start learning how to speak Chinese bitches!

  • @Hordetuff

    lol, I'm already am

  • Thanks for the downgrade, teabaggers.

    Vote the Republican obstructionists out in 2012.

  • I like how Depotman122 calls himself a "little man." Finally got something right . . .

  • Obama hasn't done shit to improve this country

  • Tea Party = AstroTurf

    It’s funded by the Koch brothers, who INHERITED their money from their daddy. And he made his fortune building oil refineries for STALIN.

  • Bush did NOT keep us safe. 9/11 occurred on his watch. Then, he couldn't get bin Laden and invaded Iraq based on lies and false assumptions. Because of that decision more Americans died and were maimed than in 9/11 itself!

    Obama made finding bin Laden a priority, and we got him.

  • @sutircomed wheres the pics why are we still at war

  • Perry = W, Jr.

    Romney = serial flip-flopper

    Paul = Pat Buchanan clone

    Bachmann = fringe lunatic

    OBAMA 2012

  • Tea Party downgrade

    Republicans currently have the lowest approval rating in history. They will be voted out in 2012. Then, this country will start moving forward again.

  • @sutircomed hahahaha you wish

    The Obama fraud will be over in 2012

  • @Depotman122 Latest poll: Obama 52, Perry 41. Keep dreamin'.

  • @Depotman122 We will see little man

    Most polls are have easily controlled outcomes. Too bad the one you cite is polling Democrats likely to vote in 2012

  • and.... who's fault is this? isnt the president responsible for presenting a good economic plan for the nation and a budget?? evidence that we cannot re-elect this man! he wass sooooo wrong about everything! and.. did not close guantanamo bay, did not pull out of iraq and afghanistan, and although he pulled a lot of troops out, was waaaaaaay later that what he promised! Oh and for those who dont know, he had the power to do it whenever...

  • NOBAMA! how could anyone support this guy?!

  • 9/11 occurred on Bush's watch; Obama ordered the death of the perpetrator. The Great Recession occurred on Bush's watch; it ended in June of 2009 under Obama. Bush ordered the costly invasion of Iraq under false pretenses; Obama withdrew 100,000 combat troops from this mistake. Bush vetoed an extension of healthcare to children; Obama extended health insurance to 30 million Americans.

  • @sutircomed

    bush kept us safe for 9 years, lets see how obama does.  plus obamas spent WAY more money than bush, and its obvious his birth certificate is fake

  • @ModdinMane Where is your birth certificate, huh?

  • @sutircomed In Kenya. Where else would it be?

  • @sutircomed see thats all you dumb pussy liberals do ask a stupid fuckin question Wheres obamas birth certificate

  • Seriously, I think my 6 year old nephew knows more about economics than Obama. Who is feeding this guy advice? I blame his economic advisors; he simply needs to surround himself with people that understand global economics. What you see around us is the effects of Marxism. Every dollar "given" to companies or the "middle class" comes at a cost. We are being bribed with our our fricken money...

  • @LordKaisenThat is like saying the Captain of the Titanic sure did drive the boat out of the port well.

    I don't give a shit about the one good thing he did! What about the 1,000,000 dumb ass things he has done! I am sure Jimmy Carter did one good thing also, most people in prison have! Lol :-) He is in over his head! He is a freaking Clueless community organizer from th

  • @paulstrong123 if you blame Obama for this, you full heartedly give him credit for killing Osama. Period. 

  • President Obama reminds me of Ron Paul.

  • Is Obama unselectable? 

  • "Are you president of a large powerful nation and are deeply in debt? Call our debt consolidation counselors now!!!"

  • Warmongering two-faced sellout.

  • Maybe we shoule take Defense spending back to what it was before Bush doubled Defense spending while conducting an ilegal war. Then maybe we could afford to continue the payroll tax cut for us lowly Americans the same way Republicans fought tooth and nail to extend the Bush Era tax cuts for rich people. I find it funny how Republicans are all for Tax breaks untill it's a tax break for someone with less than a million dollars in the bank.

  • @Ilragno2011 Maybe we should elect Ron Paul and STOP the insanity on war, corporate welfare, and politicians doing the bidding of big business and big labor.

  • Obama's already won.

  • My question is how much debt we will have by 2021. Current national debt is about $ 15 Trillion. Super comiittee is set to accomplish budget cut of $ 1.5 Trillion, $ 150 billion / yr. Just this year 2011, we spent $1.5 Trillion more than revenue. What insurance do we have that this great nation will last after 30 yrs with snowballing debt? I hope Congress and President speak on simple math term that make sense. Way I see it there are bunch of idiots in DC.

  • @xoxak888 I think democrats see deficit spending as stimulis for a faultering economy.Washington to the rescue seems the only tactic they have in thier arsenal.

  • Pres Obama's plan to grow the economy--tax, spend, print and borrow. Same O same O.

  • So, Pres O is going to have his speech next Wednesday, uh I mean, next Thurs onhis plans for job growth. He had a speech last year about his plans for job growth--how did that go? Here is Obama's plan--the same thing. Last years speech meant nothing and the upcoming speech will net nothing--just like August job growth numbers. How is the hope and change going for all those people who vote for a Pres to enhance their life? One term is more than enough.

  • no we were downgraded because we didn't cut enough... because you don't want to eat your peas as you say americans need to do

  • the messenger of Satan ogrish, announced that your country does belong to you anymore, and soon your souls in the animals

  • Obama has no fricken idea what economics even means. I love his committee this and super committee that. Outstanding speaker, but he just doesn't understand debts, deficits, and job growth. He doesn't understand that he's the problem.

  • He should not have dyed his hair.The grey streaks would have matched his tie better.

  • @Pomiferous - He should wear a dunce cap that matches his tie.

  • CLUELESS

  • please shoot vandamme

  • No....that's not how credit rating agencies work. Think about it, credit rating agencies aren't calculating debt ceiling debates into the equation. Obama is banking on American's ignorance about numbers.

    Listen to this manipulative fucker, he completely threw a red herring into the end of the speech to tug on your heart strings.

    Trust the credit rating agency. Obama is full of shit.

  • I will not vote Obama AGAIN! This country needs real CHANGE! WE THE PEOPLE

    RON PAUL 2012

  • Obama doesn't have absolute power. Congress(mostly Republicans) won't let him do anything. The Republicans that you voted in. IF YOU AREN'T RICH, REPUBLICANS WON'T HELP YOU.

  • Obama doesn't have absolute power. The Republicans in Congress won't let him do anything! The Republicans that you voted in because you grew impatient. IF YOU AREN'T RICH REPUBLICANS WON'T HELP YOU.

  • @TheSixelar7 The tea party putting handcuffs on Obama's magic tax wand. Sure put the brakes on his agenda, no doubt.

  • @Pomiferous but the tea party isn't big enough at the moment to have a big enough influence over the government... they aren't a ruling party as the republicans and the democrats are... yet they are blamed for the debt crisis... i smell fear from the liberals because they are being exposed for who they really are and the same goes for conservatives...

  • @thesprintingchef Cutting government spending in drastic fashion would impact both republican and democrat burearocrats.Both camps want to hold on to cushy federal posiitions I suspect.

  • obama for president 

  • AMERICA HAS THE OBAMA BLUES!

    VOTE RON PAUL 2012

    CLICK AND LISTEN

  • 386 blind sheep need to be sent to the slaughterhouse

  • There are many Liberal educated people who are 'unemployed'. Why is it that if these people see and understand why that situation exists, they do not start up a business of their own, grow it into one that employes fellow americans? Would they soon find out exactly why other existing business' move operations offshore? Would they see that the very government that claims to want to 'fix' the economy is actually the government that is destroying it with taxes and regulations

  • racist tea party prick republicans = low information voters

    NEWSFLASH: FOX KILLS (braincells)

  • Why are you just now trying to push infastructure? You wasted 2 years on a stupid healthcare system that will probably be throw out. Really Obama...really?

  • this monkey is the real bin laden

  • @AfroReviewer that's cute. Have you thought about how exactly he's gonna push all this through. Last time i checked he isn't part of the Legislative branch, and thus all laws are drafted through CONGRESS. Btw he doesn't favor legalizing prostitution, or legalizing weed. He lets the states decide. That means, your state legislators, and the majority of your neighbors must agree to that.

  • Ron Paul 2012!

  • america has idiotic politics

    america hasnt got any respects. A difficult child in the world of countries and politics

    And when a guy wants to change this way, he got blocked. After the blocking they just shout and bash and trashtalk about him. Is that YOUR politics is going america? REALY? Grow up america. please grow up. YOU STILL DONT REALISE that a political and financial problem isnt solved by 1 signature on a law. NOT solved 1 turn. The problems started way back with other Presidents.

  • @dylanBBE What model citizen pedestal do you reside in?

  • @dylanBBE Hey bud all other governments are very similar to ours and most have the same problems. And yes the problems were started with other presidents, however obama has exasterbated them.

  • @ThePwalt A lot do yes. But it seems like the politics is done in a childish way. Not sayin ( very simply explained) Vote me cus im good at this this and this, but Dont vote them cus this that and a lot of bashing and shitting on each other. MY view on this moment is just that this kind of politics is the most in usa and started there. Now i am starting 2 see the same in europe... unfortunately. And that the people from the other party is the enemy no matter what they say or do. The Standard.

    Here's what the President would probably like to say.

    CLICK ObamaSnippetsDotCom

  • Many in the business community (the real economy/source of jobs) feel the uncertainty in regulation and expense of Health care reform are creating an uncertainty that paralyzes pursuit of growth and increasing employment. As a relevant reference, there's Steve Wynn's last rant about Obama being the biggest wet blanket over business. They already feel there's a gangsta in the big house. Maybe the best plan he could offer to the economy is a moratorium on "plans".

  • I hear some saying Obama compromises too much..needs to go "gangsta".

    Dems already went "gangsta" with stimulus that was proposed as the cure for what ails us. They even gave specific figures for where unemployment would be if all agreed to the "plan". They went "gangsta" on health care reform, helping to fashion us more in the image of Euro Fail. But hey..carry that big gavel Nancy. Got er done..all good.

    Except it isn't. And Obama has real opposition now.

  • 2. Your comment about non-Keynesian being uneducated is typical liberal assholishness. You are the one echoing opinions. You are listening to the wrong academics. Try Hayek. Keynesianism did not work in the 30's and it isn't working now. Massive gov't spending and debt is not lifting the economy out of recession. The keynesian economies of developed countries are sinking in debt without (private sector) growth. I ask you again - when is this shit gonna start working?

  • 3. The Fed is running out of bullets. More liquidity will not fix the structural problem of excessive debt without private sector growth. The financial markets are correcting for a reason. The money-printing induced market rise since 2009 is over. The drug addict markets need another fix for 2012 - QE3 is next. How many more - QE4? QE5? How much debasement of the currency will do the job? Gold is at $1900. You can have your US treasuries - I'll take gold.

  • Obama, a hardcore liberal his entire political life, has almost destroyed America in just under three years. Already on the brink, the country will become a second rate nation if he's re-elected. And that might be optimistic.

    This will be the most important election in American history.

    GO TO HELL OBAMA YOU COCKSUCKER... FUCKING RETARDED NIGGER

    Im not racist but when you fuck up the Worlds Last Superpower - YOU DESERVE TO BE CALLED A DIRTY NIGGER!

    Hating Obama isnt racist its PATRIOTIC!

  • Obama is completely incompetent.

  • @lottiesocks AND A NIGGER JEW STOOGE

  • Barack Obama's legacy ? The first President to preside over the Nations downgrade in credit worthiness.

  • Yes this is a real President. I love how arrogant many of you folks are that make comments about what this President is doing wrong or what crimes he has committed. Many of you don't even understand how government works, that's obvious from the crazy remarks being made.

  • Moran, who are you talking to? A real speaker look at the person he is talking to. The words you use are not your own. You always say the same thing where ever you are. DON"T say the word "hope" again, because you have nothing to give America. We need a real President. We need RON PAUL, RON PAUL a man who speaks the truth and knows the real problems which face our nation.

  • you need a rating agency telling you that you are useless

  • This guy lies everytime his lips move.

  • @longiehornz You're right! He campaigned on raising taxes on the rich. Didn't do it. Ending stupid republican wars. Didn't do it. Immigration reform. Instead deprted twicw as many immigrants as Bush in half the time. He said change but instaed has given the shithead G.O.P. everything they have asked for. He is a secret republican that republican say they can't stand. Our country has 2 political parties. One with no brains, and one with no balls.

  • @Strawhat78 "He said change but instaed has given the shithead G.O.P. everything they have asked for. He is a secret republican" Oh yes...Republicans were virtually begging for PeloReidBama health care reform and increased regulations. Eventually Obama said "If you insist".

  • " The markets, on the other hand, continue to believe our credit status is triple A. In fact, Warren Buffett, who holds about $40 Billion in US treasuries, said if the dollar goes to zero he still believes the US will make good on its debt with truckloads of monopoly money. This, coupled with the full financial support of the central bank of Zimbabwe, will carry the United States to its rightful status as the banana republic I have long envisioned ..."

  • "Here's the good news. I intend to resign the presidency effective tomorrow at noon. Since Vice-President Biden is an imbecile, I will randomly pick a 4th grader with a passing math grade to be the new president."

  • Look at that smirk on his face. He is accomplishing his goals to put America under. I just don't feel right about this guy.

  • @78reerob "Under my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Coal-powered plants, you know, natural gas, you name it, whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, they would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that money on to consumers."

    Barack Obama videotaped San Francisco Chronicle interview, January 2008. Now there's a mindset aimed at helping the working man and growing the economy.

  • @TheARMAProductions "Italy/Greece/Spain etc are the main cause of our troubles and it's because they don't collect taxes correctly" actually, a conservative would look at those countries and question whether the unsustainable social programs aren't the problem.

  • @MrTakeBackAmerica Im REALLY now gonna waste my time with you and other idiots like you, you can comment all you want but this is my last one, i need to go, your a waste my of time.

YOU voted for the president YOU make the decisions YOU make the laws and YOU control the country, lol "take america back", take US back to WHERE? FROM WHAT? FROM WHOM?

    The US government can't "fix" the economy via manipulation.....it is there fault via the november 2007 "biofuel initiative" that the world economy almost collapsed in october 2008 and it is their fault that the June 2009 "Cap and trade" that lead to the current world recession

    Taxation and regulation by government can only destros,it never creates (adlibing Ben Franklin)

    Fed's really want to help? Get the fuck out of the way of the Economy vs Fed policy spikes/falls

  • 10:31 video and it took until 8:23 to even mention the deaths of the 30 troops killed in the helicopter crash. Disgusting Commander in Chief. Get some more botox....I thought I actually saw another line in your forehead.

  • "You guys are going bankrupt and will take the world with you"

    Pretty much considering how much financial support US gives to England,Sweden,Canada,Greece and the like

    The one that gets me is that Obama banned Domestic drilling in the gulf but gave Brizil 10 million dollars to drill for ol and the Horizon platform involved with the "disaster" packed up and moved to Brazil to drill for oil that will evventually be imported to US (so much for making us less dependent on Foriegn oil)

  • "he is not a US citizen he was not born in Hawaii -"

    Actually Citizenship laws make the Baby automatically a citizen of the MOTHER'S Country not the father so even if it were true Obama's Mom had him in Kenya all she would have to do is inform the US Embassy of his birth (babies cant travel for 6 months and Pregnant women shouldn't travel after 3rd Trimester)

    Again Obama mom = US Citizen so Obama automatically US citizen even if his US CItizen mom had him outside of US
