Lol that's a joke right Obama is about to move us away from fossil fuel and the whole industry is about to battle him on it. Obama didn't receive any pac money. Just like RP he got corporate donations but very little if any from energy. They always give to everyone to cover all the bases.They always give more to the so called free market republicans.
I'm not a republican... But think of it this, if government can pick the winners and losers, they can direct tax payer money to the "chosen" markets. I wonder if heavy campaign contributions have anything to do with being the "chosen" market?
The problem with our system today, is that it is Corporatism. You Obama lovers have to stay on top of him. Essentially, he's doing the same thing Bush did except rewarding different people.
If you think Bush and Obama are the same you listen to too much Alex Jones. Yes bush rewarded business and the super wealthy. Obama is rewarding the middle class. Give yourself a cookie
I just yawn when I hear that liberty stuff after 8 years of so called free market republicans taking them away. After a republican pres actually said "it would be a heck of a lot easier if this were a dictatorship". Obama is not taking away liberty if anything he is restoring it. I guess you forgot that because your personal freedom/liberty bubble is so thick.
I'm not a Republican and I did not vote for McCain.
I think that Bush was worse than Obama.
And you still have not made a single, rational argument.
Obama wants to require national service of all young people. Can you say "DRAFT?" This is a partial, temporary form of slavery. Ironic that the first black president would institute a partial form of slavery, isn't it?
This is the liberty that I say we are losing. Bush started taking it away, and Obama only continues it.
Nice jump there. I wouldn't say "Draft" until I saw some evidence, Just like the old "Obama is gonna take your gun away" what happen to that? RP is confusing you guys into thinking anyone that is not him is like Bush. Do you really think the progressive left(Obama's Base) would let some kind of back door draft happen? really? Put down the AJ and pick up some Chomsky. Rand was sociopath.
A recession is a good time to increase peoples energy bills. But its ok because Grama will be ok if she "weatherizes" her home. Hey grama just climb up in your attic with some insulation.
fremontr, you're so not alone, even during the election after the audio came out with Obama saying he'd bankrupt the coal industry through the back door via cap & trade (while giving the appearance of pro-coal elsewhere), Obama's duplicitous words were crystal clear, but people just ignored it & voted for the messiah-wannabe anyway.
so, in other words....money going to flow...only big thing for sure......its going to flow thru greasy govt beuracrat hands from cap & trade tax.......greasey....then onto those "subjects" deemed worthy
Wow, just a few weeks into the Obama administration and already they've proven themselves to be the most economically ignorant, anti-intellectual, clueless government in American history. Raise the cost of energy during a recession - hey THAT'LL fix the economy, won't it?
God the left is so DUMB. So catastrophically DUMB. I've never seen such moronic behavior in my lifetime.
Obviously these people are insane. Is there any feature of the US economy on which they do NOT plan on increasing the cost in the next year?
For the Oba-morons what do you think is going to happen to the economy when the cost of energy doubles in the next two years? Are you really so ignorant that you believe that increasing the energy expense for companies isn't going to reduce production and trigger a need for these companies to look for further ways of decrease cost, higher unemployment?
This is all fine and dandy but man-made climate change doesn't exist.

It only increases rate because someone has to profit off of energy.
atripa645 3 years ago
yeah you're right. The goverment will be the only one making a profit on energy. I wonder which of their campaign contributors will get it..?

It only makes you better off if you do as they say.
This is a form of dictatorship they are proposing.
It destroys individual liberty.

Liberty requires tolerance.
Develop some.
Instead of just calling me annoying, why not actually respond to the point I made?
Or have you no rational response to it?

Do a search in YouTube on the following:
"Obama's Plan for Compulsory Civil Service - The Draft" by johnsreport. It is 2 minutes long.
Or try "Obamas Civil Defense Program Resembles Domestic Draft" by matrixxx123456789 which is 3 minutes long.
It is a draft.
Obama extended the Iraq occupation, and plans to leave 50K troops there. He brought more troops in to Afghanistan.
Corp. welfare in the stimulus bill?
There are many reasons Obama's base will be unhappy with him.
I like Rand.
