President-elect Obama announces economic team

[uniloop]

ONLY problem with the economy = Federal Reserve Bank

[mongobobo]

It is funny that people thought that McCain would be a 3rd Bush term. In fact, Obama seems to be constructing a Bush 3rd term. This country is in big trouble now.

what a farce! i posted two comments of dissent and they are not here...haha

[daveibukun]

This guy is the perfect guy for America at this time, see how quick he has hit the ground running. He has brought in a lot of smart guys to handle the problem.

[digme1]

really??? i laughed at bush when my parents went to elect him in 2000, just because he was a christian.... and i am going to laugh in sadness i might add now.... talk about the fox guarding then hen house... Tim geithner- yeah why not let the Fed get audited? summers- one word, Gibson's paradox... and Mary Schapiro- oh i forgot, she was the regulator... she is no outsider... the same old thing happening before our eyes...

[C100WA]

BUSH FAILED AT OPERATING AN OUTHOUSE

[XanderThaGreat]

All I see is just another Clinton Administration. Is that change?

[garbageman512]

just b/c obama has picked some of bill clinton's old team does'nt mean that things will be the same.he is just choosing some of the best economic minds to pull america out of this financial disaster that mr. bush has made.remember that when bill clinton and his team was in office,this country was in financial bliss.there is change coming but obama needs some of the best to assist in saving this country from going under.

[eventheinnocent]

clinton had unemployment at its lowest in 30 years, is that bad?

[issagele]

It's change compared to what we've been through the past 8 years

[Ronnoch20101]

it sure is change from the bush administration

[hun33y]

bigup :D

[daveibukun]

When you are in an economic crisis, you want the best and most experienced people and not newbies who probably don't know there left from there right.

Lawrence Summers (who is actually smarter than Geithner who also happens to be a genius), Timothy Geithner and Paul Volcker (who fought inflation in the Reagan administration) are some of the smartest in the world.

[Coskunm]

Its God Allmighty that will save us, not obama himself, he is just the selected one

[ladyhooper71]

You are so right. Obama can not do this alone. He has got to listen to the voice of God and let him lead and guide him. We as believers must pray for Obama and all elected officials that they might follow as God would have them to. May God bless you Coskumn and us all. during a time like this.

[debaucheryBotched]

Huh, why couldn't god be unveiling the end of days now?..........I mean, you have to believe in both, if you believe in one. God hasen't saved anybody, from anything, ever...why start now

[SSBB12347]

I'm an athiest, and i respect religion, but not if you try and impose your beliefs on someone else..please, don't post comments like that on Youtube..it's unbecoming, and god won't save us, that's just an excuse to avoid actually working for change. Remember, one pair of working hands accomplishes more then 100 pairs of hands in prayer.

[asokore]

Great idea Obama that you need Republicans as well to achieve your goals.

[kb103248]

Americans want to help to advance your plan as you present it to your congress. Please provide a letter blank that can go to our state senators and representative for every initiative you propose. We will bombard the opposition to convince them to vote for whatever it is.

[hmily92pts]

Indeed, we do

[asd310627]

after election, he told us "waiting for recovery?! great Mr P

[greenfaceman]

Very optimistic, indeed.Yes we can, this man (President Elect Obama)has the vision and the tenacity to pull America out of this morass. God Bless Mr President Elect and God Bless The United States Of America.

[notlracstabb]

Lead PRESIDENT OBAMA, LEAD!!! I love how the PRESIDENT ELECT has stepped up to the plate and has show skills that i feel will make him the best President that we have seen in many years.

[babiegal100]

u are doing good

[babiegal100]

lets just give him the support . u have all of our praise

[PapaSauce]

Excellent choices.

[cahoszero]

WOW, only 3 comments so far.....

[jaif4]

I am so glad this is the president, what a difference votes make, I remember many times and with any national crisis expecting G.W. Bush to come out and just have a hissy fit and throw a major temper tantrum instead of calm, cool and collective, thoughtful guides on how to go about solving problems as it is demonstrated by President elect Obama, this man is just awesome.

[guyaneesebrotha]

finally an educated person in the house of presidents.i will no longer call it the white house that is a bullshit name.please president obama show these racist whites we are capable of more than drinking 40 ounces,entertainment and sports.

[HSM4EVERBEST]

GREAT JOB

[EuthanizeReligion]

Great Job Mr Obama.

[josuerodriguez1981]

I know you can , we need your help obama plz . we need jobs

[liberalblowjob]

he is reading like bush

[digme1]

please people, if he is assigning the same people that got us into this mess, how in the world do you think he is going to change? those same people will give him advice that would lead us to more spending less saving and this illusion of wealth that is created by the trading of paper, instead of real production. What does the US really produce these days? think about it.

[hun33y]

Assigning the same people that got us into this mess doesnt mean that it wont be changing. Obama differs alot from Bush- you do the comparison. Barack most likely has different ideas. He might listen to ppl around him, but he doesnt necessarily have to act as they tell him to. cmon, you should know that. oh and...what does the US really produce these days?? Well, movies hahah

[wahod]

hopefully it will pass

[WCityMike]

Mr. President-Elect, I'd recommend in the future that the camera not be placed as it was here: the gentleman behind you kept shifting from foot to foot and it really stole focus. This is of course only speaking to the "stagecraft" of the speech; your comments with regard to the nominees themselves were definitely welcome, and I can only hope that they will serve as good guides to help the American economy avoid falling over the precipice.

[zoemgs2]

America. Don't be so scared. Dip into those savings and spend your ass off this Christmas and we will get through it!!!
