  • I thought that, when i clicked this i thought obama was on vacatioin for six weeks, six weeks out...i still think he needs some rest, look at his eyes!

  • I think you all who do not support Obama are lazy persons !

    Go where you want do what ever you do it is totally equal to me.

    All I want is to sometimes ask yourself why the fuck are you brought here on earth and maybe you will not be so lucky next time to live a life where all begins with ''B''.

    All Americans should give their life's for his president because Obama is given by god !

    People who do not support him are empty headed and made to create chaos upon justice and equal right of everyone

  • Just give freedom back to the people and end the fed Mr. Soetoro!

  • VOTE FOR RON PAUL TO END THE WARS AND REDUCE THE DEBT. FUCK OBAMA, HE LIED!

  • @ebrawl GO RIDE A HORSE WITH RON PAUL , I WILL DRIVE A CAR WITH OBAMA AND CHEAP GAS!

  • @democratsaresmart You said it! Ron Paul is UGH! Vote Democratic so our president can get our country back in shape.

  • @likingpurple Just don't let any of them intimidate you, you and democrataresmart keep right on posting, it is a democratic stump site after all and the right are the spammers and party crashers.

  • WARNING AMERICAN PEOPLE! REPUBLICANS BLOCK EVERYTHING DEMOCRATS PROPOSE. CHECK THIS ; WE DONT NEED REPUBLICAN PARTY, COS THEY BLOCK EVERYTHING DEMOCRATS WANT TO DO FOR AMERICAN PEOPLE. IMAGINE IF GOP WAS NOT EXISTING WE WOULD MOVE AHEAD MUCH FASTER, BUT REPUBLICAN AFRAID TO LOOSE THEIR JOBS, SO WHAT THEY DO IS PLAY GAMES. AMERICAN PEOPLE VOTE IN NOVEMBER TO LIQUIDATE GOP, WE NEED TO CLOSE THAT ORGANIZATION DOWN, ITS A WASTE OF TAXPAYERS MONEY, THEY SLOWDOWN PROGRESS AMERICA SUPPOSED TO MAKE

  • @democratsaresmart I agree with you 100%. It is the CEO loving Republicans that have brought our county to this poor economy.

  • @likingpurple I think these Tea party people need their own site so that they can quit spamming democratic stump sites. I guess that entitlement mentality they have is what makes them think they are entitled to throw trash on our porch. lol Spammers. I like the right that is decent to debate and discuss with but some of these people are just plain abusive bullies trying to force everyone to do things the way they want it done.

  • @barsense You got that right. It boggles the mind the way they behave. UGH!

  • @democratsaresmart Amen to that ! Most Republicans are greedy nut cases at best. Anyone that believes their odd ball rants has serious mental issues.

  • the retard talking in this video is a joke! lol

    who ever voted for him & supports him is a joke too...

    Ron Paul 2012! REAL CHANGE & HOPE for America!

  • @DigitalDogg21 I like Ron Paul but some of his agenda is far to radical for me to consider voting for him. I much prefer democrat policies which tend to give the people more control in preference of the policies of the right which tend to give all the control to mega corps which BTW these days are more foreign owned than American owned. I prefer Americans to run this country.

  • Candidate Obama and President Obama are 2 very different people.Candidate Obama was a passionate partisan,President Obama has been the most partisan president since World War II. He`s not hopeful anymore, he is a finger wagger who spends most of his time complaining how unfair his critics are, how bad the press is and how hard he is working despite countless vacations and golf outings.

  • @balke52 The 39 compromises he has made on legislation that has been passed shows that your charge is not true. And considering how the right has attacked him he really has no choice but to fight back. And if you compare his hours on the job to previous Presdent's in comparison he is working hard. lol

  • ever video theres thousand saof comments with paragraphs of shit no one cares about

    my comment will beat u all

    JOKE:

    "a black guy walks into a store and buys something"

    HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA GET IT?!?!

  • @Maper555 Here is one I like. If the republicans would quit lying about democrats then the democrats would quit telling the truth about republicans.

  • Campaigner in Chief!...

    Say... Why did Obama's political group, OFA co-sponsor a rally in DC today with Communists?

    This is why the left considers freedom-loving Americans "extremists." They are extreme to the lovers of totalitarianism.

  • @MightySerf You are so wrong, democrats support liberty, freedom, rights, and opportunity for ALL Americans even for YOU. It is conservatives that want to be so selective on what liberty they will support. Our Founding Fathers warned against banks, mega corps working hand in hand with Fed reserve as the biggest threat to the future of this country and that is why they proposed a strong enegertic central gov as necessary to the security of liberty and prosperity for America,

  • @barsense Then why do they want to dictate what I eat, how much energy I use, and what I smoke (cigarettes)?....

    I don't support the crony capitalism of Obama. I support real capitalism... No corporate welfare. Stop the bailouts!

    Don't frickin tell me what I believe, you have no clue!

    I've got strong libertarian stripes so your argument is ignorant.

    You never answered why the president's political arm co-sponsored a rally with Communists????? Those guys don't so much appreciate liberty.

  • Comment removed

  • @MightySerf Mightyserf you can eat what want and smoke if you want. And the bailouts were to save all of us from loosing our entire life savings which is what would have happened if the banks ,autos, all went under because the market would have totally crashed. They are loans being paid back anyway and so far have not cost taxpayers one dime. The owners and ceo's would have been just fine even if the corps failed it is us who would have suffered. And the rally is not communists. LOL.

  • @barsense You have a very clear, intelligent understanding. Too bad "certain" folks wear GOP/Tea party blinders.

  • @MightySerf The Federal Reserve , mega corps incuding mega banks all work hand in hand and our Founding Fathers warned that was the biggest threat to the security of liberty in this country. The Founding Fathers explained that an energetic central government of the people by the people was essential to constrain the greed of man and protect the liberties of the people. We just need to get big money out of our election process not give more power to the mega corps, banks, Fed Reserve.

  • @barsense I can't post links here but search "The Communists (Progressive Labor Party) arrive at the One Nation Working Together Rally" here on Youtube. You will see LOTS of Communists, who co-sponsored the One Nation rally with OFA... Plus, check the Communists Part USA's website for their message of solidarity with the president... I'm not LOLing.

    BTW, it's not the federal government's job to pick winners and losers.

  • @barsense You are so correct.

  • @barsense YES!

  • @MightySerf You are so wrong and anyone can write anything and do these days making accusations that people just auto believe and most of it is pure nonsense or has just been twisted and exaggerated way out of proportion. The left are freedom loving extremists on they love freedom for ALL the people in America and are not selective like conservatives are.

  • President Obama and the democrats have done an amazing job considering what they have had to deal with. I will be voting democrat.

  • @barsense Me too barsense, All of my friends and family will too.

  • /watch?v=_SmtMK2FNEE

    WATCH THIS UGLY AMERICAN PEOPLE !!!

    but one day you all will be judged you are just human

  • Yeah great "in comparison" wtf kind of solace is that in comparison the depression was worse that doesn't mean things are great now

  • ‎"This victory alone is not the change we seek —it is only the chance for us to make that change."— President Barack Obama, Election Night, 2008

  • BigK54 compare this recession and recovery to the last bad recession under REAGAN which was not even as severe as this one. Repub stimilus of 787B under REAGAN which was tax cuts for the rich did NOTHING. Unemployment went to 10.8%, stayed over 10% for 10 months, took another year to get below 9%. Passed TEFRA in the middle of it OCT. 81, largest tax INCREASE in peacetime history because of deficit JUMP due to original FLOP top income tax cuts.. In comparison what Obama has done is amazing.

  • ALL COMMENTS ARE TL;DR

  • We got change alright, more unemployment, home foreclosures, But, because of the inverse relationship of gold prices to confidence in government, Gold is at a all time high and going higher, which means confidence in government is at an all time low. Keep up the good work!

  • wolfoworld the Bush rebate did not stop the recession and we nearly crashed and it increased the debt so I think it is a no-brainer why Obama did not go that route, well that and the fact that when he did propose another rebate the repubs said NO, and not enough dems would support it either because it had already been tried and did not work.

  • Action speaks faster than words.............where is the 600.00 houshold stimulus cheaks Obama, you know the ones Bush sent everybody.

  • jrty787 your facts are WRONG, each Pres starts his first year with previous president's budget and spending is already obligated. New pres can only add thru emergency which was the 800B which BTW kept the market from totally crashing and everyone loosing their entire lives savings, did create private sector jobs, did keep teachers, police, firefighters working, repubs bragged and took credit for in home districts about how successful it was and then the hypocrites trashed it in Washington

  • This guy is a JOKE. He just said republicans would "add to the deficit." FACT: Obama's "Economic 'non'Stimulus" package creating a LARGER NATIONAL DEBT from Presidents George Washington to George W. Bush. FACT: Obama still puts blame on Bush about the little debt from war. FACT: Obama tripled spending on the war in just one year. FACT: Obama said he will never have lobbyists in top positions in the White House, his senior advisor is D.C. Power Lobbyist Valerie Jarret. These are just a few...

  • At first I thought the repubs were just voting no because they did not agree with Obama's agenda but then they started voting no on things they even suggested themselves and wanted, repubs make a suggestion, Obama says OK that sounds like a good idea, then repubs say NO because Obama agreed with them. That is just plain even childish game playing on the part of the repubs with no concerns at all about this country. I am highly disappointed with repubs in Congress and Tea Party same thing.

  • I don't know any other politiican that has ever put themselves on the line with so many specific details regarding their agenda, most of them try to word everything as general as possible so that they can't be pinned down to anything specific. And he has followed thru 122 promises kept and the 39 compromises do prove his efforts at non-partisan leadership trying to work with the repubs which just turned out to be a waste of time considering the obstructionist platform they chose to adopt.

  • Comment removed

  • Methinks Obama is scared.

  • getjustice Obama has no authority over state and local taxes but The FY 2011 budget request for Operation of Indian Programs is $2.4 billion, which is $58.7 million or 2.5 percent above the 2010 enacted level.

  • Comment removed

  • CrazyKing570 Obama did require Congress to set more protections for US citizens before he would agree to extend the Patriot Act and that is what he said he would do, and on the troops issue he did made it clear that he intended to end the war in Iraq and bring those troops home which is done, and also made it clear that he would be sending MORE troops to Afghanistan. He campaigned on taking the war to Afghanistan where Al-Queda was gaining a stronghold, has not caught Ben Laden yet though

  • Hani110 r u fcking stupid. It ain't the president who orders fake clouds plus it's for agriculture in Texas where it barely rains. And as for that pangaea sht it ain't Obama fault 99.99% of the ppl u talk to r dumb

  • CrazyKing570, passed more restrictions on lobbyists, passed more transparency rules,passed small business tax cuts, passed middle income tax cuts, passed fair pay for women, passed regs for insurance co and Wallstreet to protect consumers from being ripped off, passed largest increase in funding for veterans ever passed in the history of this country, passed reductions in tax credits for corps with foreign accounts, set limits on big bonus pay-outs for bail-out banks till loans are paid back,

  • i want to make you mr president aware of what you said in the campaign about native americans.Please keep your promise i dont want my indian friends to get hurt..I live in ny .the are trying to tax natives,i will attach what you said was it the truth??I try never to lie..I voted for you help my friends please.

  • @getjustice Yes Obama please help the American Indians.I am white and they have been shit on long enough.

  • The only thing that changed in the whitehouse was the name.

  • obama is a dismal failure and  a marxist pig

  • WHY VOTE FOR A PRESIDENT? STOP VOTING ? ITS RIGGED ANYWAY?  STOP WASTING YOUR TIME TO EVEN VOTE. ITS THE SAME IN EVERY EUROPEAN COUNTRY TOO. THE SAME PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER....

  • @Hani110 WHY ARE YOU COMPARING EUROPE AND USA? USA IS THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!

  • Why do some of the most top powerful POLITICIANS have an ANCIENT bloodline of EUROPEAN royalty and INFLUENCE? can OBAMA explain this to the PEOPLE? or is he busy bullsh1tting everyone about how much he CARES?

  • For everybody who thinks im just a "Wacko" when i say all of this, do yourself a favour with finding out a partial truth. That the goverment does indeed spray chemicals in high altitude that forms into artifical clouds. Do yourself a favour, if you want truth then its as easy as this to find out.

    MAKE SURE ITS CLEAN. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS TO CLEAN IT.

    GATHER RAIN WATER WITH THE CONTAINER.

    GET IT SENT OFF TO BE EXAMINED.

    THERES YOUR ANSWER.

  • WHY DO YOU DESEASE PEOPLES WATER WITH TOO MUCH CHEMICALS AND CLAIM ITS GOOD FOR THEM?

  • IS IT TRUE THAT THE WORLD WOULD BE BETTER OFF WITH SIX POINT TWO BILLION LESS PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET? NO INTERNET AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH?

  • Why do all these politicians from Europe and america and all these other countrys the same band of people own, CLAIM they CARE about world PEACE and to stop STARVATION in countrys and WAR. Yet it cost £15,000,000+ just for the SECURITY when the POPE of ROME visited ENGLAND?

  • WHY DO YOU CLAIM THAT YOUR GOAL IS TO TEACH THE FUTURE GENERATION ABOUT REAL KNOWLEDGE IN SCHOOLS, YET OVER 99.99% OF THE PEOPLE I HAVE SPOKE TO, KNOW NOTHING ABOUT PANGEA? AND THE ANCIENT SUMERIAN CULPTURE THAT LIVED 4200+ YEARS BEFORE JESUS CHRIST WAS EVEN BORN?

  • Is it true that a number of politicians have shares and some not even shares but acually OWN these TOP pharmacy companys THAT EXIST TO THE PUBLIC IN THE WORLD? WHY DOES ONE OF AMERICAS POLITICIANS HAVE SHARES IN "TAMIFLU?"

  • can obama explain to me why over 70% of the USMC naval fleet is still in the persian gulf since the cold war? CAN ANYONE ACUALLY EXPLAIN WHY?

  • WHY DO YOU KILL 2000 OF YOUR OWN PEOPLE FOR SOME OIL? WHY DONT YOU TELL THE WORLD THAT REALLY ITS NOT EVEN "OIL" THAT YOU WANT, BUT STRATEGIC REGIONS TO ATTACK IRAN FROM?

  • Is it true that america wants to enforce THUMB SCANNING EVEN WHEN PURCHASING PRODUCTS AS LITTLE AS A PACKET OF CIGGERATES FROM A SHOP and its not just america that wants to enforce it too but also ENGLAND and GOD KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER COUNTRYS THATS PART OF EUROPE?

  • Why dont you tell people that FACEBOOK and TWITTER and all these other worldwide communication methods on the internet is infact an ONLINE DATABASE TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT PEOPLE ARE DOING? Please, Tell me? Infact. TELL THE WORLD?

  • WHY DID GEORGE BUSH RECEIVE KNIGHTHOOD FROM THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND IN 1993? HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ENGLAND?

  • HOW COME, EVERY TIME I E MAIL THE WHITE HOUSE. ALL I EVER GET IS AN AUTOMATED REPLY ABOUT HEALTHCARE?

  • Good luck taking IRAN. More FAKE terrorism here we GO. IRAN MAYBE FASCISTS BUT ATLEAST THEY DONT RIG THERE OWN POLLS TO CAUSE DOMESTIC RIOTS TO CAUSE POLITICAL UPROAR.

  • not like the top people in power will ever read what i say, but heed my words you nazi bastards, Russia will press the BIG RED BUTTON BEFORE THEY LET YOU TAKE THERE COUNTRY AND LAND.

    Try looking at the gold inflation.

    At the moment, Im watching fox news about Cindy Whos Afraid Of The Dentist?

    Nice propaganda.

  • Sorry wait, who are you taking orders from? Jerry springer?

    What control do YOU acually HAVE as president of america? Maybe thats why JFK got shot from behind by his own goverment. Diddnt like him telling the truth in riddles to people right?

  • Obama why dont you TELL THE WORLD where you borrowed that first 600 billion dollar bill from? European banks right? Tell the people where it acually came from?

    Also, why dont you tell them what you dump off in high altitude to lower peoples immune systems.

    Good job HAARP on Haiti, Useless eaters anyway? Good Old Obama!

    Sorry wait, are you a dodgy politician that gets money for chatting sht or just under Mind Control alltogether? Comon spit it out we're waiting.

    Thank you!

    Good old obama, savior to the world!

  • Wer regiert die USA, fragt man sich da? Die Antwort: Die Regierung in Tel Aviv über die zionistische Lobby in den USA.

    Die Mavi Marmara Passagiere wurden hingerichtet

    Nicht Obama ist der Präsident der USA, sondern der Killer Netanyahu!

    Freedom, wats this.

  • Rockntheclub 122 promises kept to date, that is remarkable not overboard as far as I am concerned because I remember clearly Obama clarifying that he would not even be able to do everything he promised in one term, and he said several time that he would only be able to make a start on some issues and it would be up to his predecessors and voters whether they were finished or not.

    How many other politicians do you know that will risk putting themselves on the line with anything specific ?

  • @barsense You keep saying he kept 122 promises.. can you name 5 out of that 122? obviously repealing the patriot act and bringing the troops home aren't amongst them..

  • Wow it's sad how people are calling pres Obama a liar. Yes I agree he went overboard with his boatload of promises but atleast he's trying to make most of them true. How many politicians have promised magical miracles and then when they're elected went back 180 on everything they had said. (idk but I bet there's alot)

  • I am impressed with the integrity, honesty, and perseverence that President Obama has shown as well as the progress he has made considering how hard he has had to fight for every bit of legislation passed without support from many people that voted for him to do the very things that he promised to do which is why they voted for him.

  • TheJafang, I clearly understand what you are saying, because I am very often on the receiving end of some really vicious verbal attacks from the right due to my interest in blogging , but I believe that it takes more strength to remain civil regardless of how I am treated and that remaining civil is the only constructive way to debate any issues or support my beliefs. . I just always remind myself that 2 wrongs do not make a right when I am tempted to reply in like kind.

  • @barsense I get ridiculous hate filled messages from the right. Their rantings are frightening. I pray they do not gain power. I think most of them are pure evil.

  • Barrys nose is getting bigger every day...

  • Good video! Good job! And good points!

  • 100crawma we are on totally opposite sides politically and totally disagree, but still I would like to apologize for the way TheJafang has spoken to you, because I think it is wrong. I don't think any of us can accomplish anything good for this country and only make things worse by being verbally abusive to each other. BTW, I am sure you can handle your own end and don't need or want my input and neither does TheJafang but civility is something I feel very strongly about.

  • @barsense I agree with you..BUT respect is a twoway street... a person can't ask for respect if he/she disrespects others first... simple...

  • This President has done more for Americans and the world peace in general in two years than any Republican child molestater fuck faces have done in their life time. the record speaks for itself...

  • I STILL BELIEVE. Americans have a habit of wanting someone else to do their hardwork, and then reap the benefits. History ... the Native Americans, Chinese, Africans and now the new immigrants. Living in a "Dream"; hoping problems will be magically solved. Elected Pres. Obama & we idolized him. He knew he'd need our support in the form of the voices of grassroot coalitions to get our agenda thru. Well the T'party/Republicans did so and we lost faith, turned without any effort to assist.

  • Does the bubble love you enough Mr. President?

  • Hello?

  • davidodude that is funny that you would say that, this Pres is doing what he believe is right according to the constitution and to date has followed thru with 122 promises which is a super record considering how hard he has had to fight to get them passed and he is still working on many many other promises. Some of his promises are just not popular with the top income, the powerful elite and that is why he is being attacked so heavily because he is following thru.

  • The founding fathers of our constitution believed that a country without a strong central government with officials elected by the people to make laws to protect the country, the citizens, and keep the country functioning as a union was a country doomed. That is why they devised the constitution and set up the system of government that we have and depend on to do their job that we elect them to do. Unforunately big money donations get's in the way of what was intended by our founding fathers.

  • balke52 the democrats have followed the constitution. The constitution give Congress the authority to make laws as they see fit unless a super majority of states disagree. Also they support the freedom and rights for all which is what our constitution is about. It is the republicans that keep wanting to change our constitution not the democrats.

  • What we need is a President to come in and say, 'You know what, according to the constitution, I don't have that authority.' Of course my idea of America might not work anymore. My idea of a President would be of one with principals, honesty, and passion. Our country might not be ready for real change. We all depend on the government in some way or another, and it's pretty sad.

  • @davitodude The problem is he does not like the constitution, he along with Pelosi and Reed think they have all the authority, he would never admit his ideas are not working.. he thinks we are ready for a change whether we want one or not.

  • roost24, I like the liberal philosophy, I did not know much about until conservatives starting bashing but now that I do I like - liberal - broad: showing or characterized by broad-mindedness; "a broad political stance"; "generous and broad sympathies"; "; "tolerant of his opponent's opinions" liberal - tolerant of change; not bound by authoritarianism, orthodoxy, or tradition liberal - a person who favors a political philosophy of progress and reform and the protection of civil liberties

  • Endlesslovekiss you are right. Our president has had to battle unprecedented obstructionism to follow thru with the promises he made to the people of this country that voted for him, and he has and is doing what he said he would do despite all the efforts of the opposition that so desperately want control back so that they can continue policies that nearly put us in a great depressiona and has allowed our country to be sold to foreigners, stocks, real estate, businesses, funds, etc. etc.

  • littlesumthin our standing with other countries has improved dramatically BECAUSE Obama will show respect and consideration for other cultures and that is a good thing not a bad thing. I am very proud to be an American and proud of our President and the way he has followed thru with his promises. 122 kept so far and that is an amazing record considering how hard he has had to fight for each one against republican obstructionism.

  • guitarplay4real, I expect in some areas it will still take several more months to see any significant improvement just like it did during the last bad recession in 1980 t0 82. Reagan was not popular either 42% approval because of that recession but it finally did get better then and it will this time also. It just takes time after a bad recession , everyone wishes there was a magic overnight fix but no one has found it yet, not the repubs or the dems.

  • yes you were given a great honor, so why aren't you honoring America and its constitution? Why are you bowing to the enemy ? Why are you apologizing for America/Americans for being a strong Nation of (once) proud citizens? Why isn't your Senate and congress listening to "WE THE PEOPLE" ?

    Guess you'll start listening soon enough. Nov. can not come quick enough

  • He is a Liberal....You can never trust a Liberal.

  • @roost24 Well, special interest can trust Obama to steal from you and I to give to them.

    Thats why this ACLU style Harvard grad has the soap box presently. So that minority groups and many other small special interest groups (all banned together with one common goal, wanting our money) who give Obama weight. Add the college kiddy vote and there you have it.. A special interest, ignorant youth voted idealism. Its not sustainable, we need to get grandpa to the vote booth next round lol.

  • no professor your job is done ,it is apparent you cant lead, so just get out of the way and try not to do anything else stupid for the next two years

  • shut the fuck up you marxist filth-- what a dismal failure you are

  • @100crawma why don't you put the bible in your mouth so as the republican conservative fuck you in the ass you don't screem?? ohh sorry forgot your mom has the book in her mouth right now... go fuck yourself with your GOD, Religion and your motherfucker redneck filthy asshole.. btw your sister is here saying hello...

  • freemasonry

  • vala the ronin

  • it should'nt b about our president doing things alone & a congress who wont cooperate w/our president w/whats in the best intrests of the people/country. we as a people need to help by not just complaining & helping get an entire senate thats about the people/country vote out the ones that r really only about backing up the very rich. we need the new jobs, the clean energy, keeping the jobs the big co's take else where here in the USA & all we can. help by voteing Democrat Nov. 2nd 2010

  • @Endlesslovekiss Yea like the Democrats do with the conservatives when they are in office lol... Yea everyone should cooperate NOW that the liberals are in? Why? Not everyone 'believes in' your idealistic society OR the ability of this attorney to make that happen. Personally I am appauled that a Harvard attorney is the president of this great nation. If you ever hope to have anything, to start a business and make your way then you are shooting yourself in the foot.

  • @guitarplayer4real hi there! agent smith? if so i guess im trinity. lol. cool stuff ur into too bad were not on the same page when it comes to politics.  politics is never a good subject to talk w/others when not on the same side.

    peace out!

  • Gotta go for awhile be back later for a bit or might be tomorrow not sure.

    Thanks for the good debate.

  • Yes, I know production is down and so do the dems that is why they fought so hard to pass the Small business Act, wanted to do it much much sooner but repubs kept blocking and delaying. And the drop in revenue is WHY the dems do not want to pass tax cuts for individuals in upper income range so that they can keep the tax cuts for businesses.

  • @barsense But this show at helping small business has nothing to do with the economics which it takes for employers and other companies like myself to thrive. For me to be a benefit I need annual growth.. For all 10 years in business I had growth, right up until this admin took office. The very next month after Obama spent us into oblivion is when my telephone (And many many others') stopped ringing.

    Sorry to say, Conserv's develop and Democrats cry for more of their money, more gov, more etc..

  • @barsense But I'll tell you what. If this man makes it happen and this really does recover and is not just a Democrats fantasy system then I'll publicly praise Obama and his admin for their part. Like I said before, I have work and I will survive as usual. And as usual I'll be the guy working and carrying more than my load in this country.. But my employees had better be having their jobs back really soon and I'm sure many many other construction related businesses feel the same..Joe the plumber

  • It was the recession that started BEFORE Obama that caused that guitarplayer4real, it would have been much worse without the spending, you should check out Rachel Maddow's video on republican hypocrisy and the ARRA and you will see Republican after republican bragging in their home districts about how much good the stimilus did and how many jobs it created taking credit as if they did not vote against it and then they turn around and trash it in Washington. lol politics, the stimilus worked.

  • With most small business down like this in this country (And no it is not just here if you read outside of your own demographic), and even my own small business contributing upwards of 20k per year and my employees similarly... Who is paying now?

    You cannot imagine how many times I have been ignored on this question. This nation is DOWN one hell of a lot of cash from guys like me and production.. where is the money coming from when corp's account for 20% of the tax base in this country?

  • Did you know that the CEO of HPQ is running as a republican and she laid off 40 thousand HPQ employees and outsourced their jobs ?

  • @barsense I laid off 3 guys myself,.you have to make a decision to not drown as a biz. When my parents left they were treated pretty well by HP... I hope those employees find work but I fear this economy will not be producing any gainful employment for quite some time. I went from 2 trucks (service) and one construction crew of me and 2 other guys all the way down to just me. Now at 50 years old, still renting, I have the prospect of another 10 years in the field busting my ass with no help.

  • Your fears are not warranted guitarplayer4real, you would be paying less than what you did when Reagan raised taxes and upper income still gained financially even after those tax increase. Dems passed pay-as-you-go and all spending has been paid for since the ARRA except for some on the unemployment extension but most of that is paid for also. No worries, but thanks for the apology it is much appreciated.

  • Obama cut taxes for 95 % of Americans and that was individual, cut taxes for 95% of businesses and to date has raised taxes on NO ONE. If the dems do not renew the tax cuts for over 250K even if you make more than that you would still be paying less than you did under Reagan and many of the new tax credits apply to upper income also. The only reason anyone is even considering it is because of the deficit and the fact that upper income is the only ones to gain in over 8 years.

  • BTW, if you are really worried about employees then you should appreciate the dems fighting to extend unemployment cause the repubs did not want to extend it. And as for good and bad in both parties used to agree with you but the repubs for the most part vote as ONE person on everything, hard to get dems to do that on anything.

  • 800 B is what Obama is responsible for the rest was already in Bush's budget cause each pres starts with the previous pres budget for the first year. And that 800 b did create private industry jobs as well as keep police, firemen, teachers working, without the ARRA it would have been much much worse. Just in my area there are still several big construction projects still going and will be another year. Like I said maybe you need to fuss at your Governor for poor fund delegating.

  • @barsense Sorry for being harsh a ways back, that guy really pissed me off and brought out the worse in me:-) I have Democrats in my own family man, thats how much I hate Democrats. My own mother is a registered Democrat but does not support this admin. Both parents are retired Hewlett Packard employees of over 30 years. No dummies either, .

    My practical business sense has me afraid, no tax income for US in this slump and yet spending continues? How? Small business is down over 60% here

  • @barsense Sure, we were a nation in debt so Obama comes along with his political and economic theory which is liberal in nature (And it is just theory) and begins spending even more cash driving most small businesses into severe distress immediately. Many businesses here were, and many still are at about 30% and not making it now and for the last 2 years. THEY are the tax base! You guys expect these people with lost homes and small biz's to support this while we await the magical outcome?

  • LOL, Rocknthclub you could be right, that was a good one. I do love a good debate,

  • To be honest I think that Democrats have a good reason to be pissed off, I am too but my energy is not in looking back like the Democrats do and blaming Republicans erroneously across the board. There are good and bad in both parties.

    The massive emergency style spending was what killed everything entirely and now we are to just be poor, send all employees home to die and go hungry while your master in chief saves America from the evil Republicans.

    Yea... I support that load of crap:-p

  • BTW, never said YOU were republican, but we have two choices repub whether they prefer to call themselves Tea Party or whatever, and democrat and I much prefer the democrat policies over the policies that caused this severe recession. And you still have not told me what you consider socialist. Key manipulation word that nobody can ever define and when they do it usually does not even apply.

  • @barsense Have you seen the listings of communist and socialist parties supporting this socialist administration and many of our academic institutions lately?

    I feel like the entire thing is sneaking in on America and before its truly identified for what it is we will be exactly like the rest of the socialist world. and that has nothing to do with the economic situation. Saving the world on my dime isnt happening without a fight, I will determine what I do with my money not a socialist.

  • Hardly 4 or five years we were hard hit also and it has picked up a lot, some areas will take longer but not that much longer and the new business tax cuts will help jumpstart those areas. Perhaps the Governor in your state should have delegate the stimilus funding more wisely. Also suggesting that you compare this recovery with the 1980 to 82 recession recovery under republicans is not SPAM whoever flagged it as such need to learn what spam is.

  • Lol I think the money obamas making off of barsense and guitarplayer always visiting this video will be enough to end the recession xD

  • guitarplayer4real I bet you have fallen hook line and sinker for republicans promises of tax cuts for corporations everytime they go that route. I use to until I started actually looking up the legislation they put before Congress to be voted on and guess what , the tax cuts for corps which THEY called small business ONLY applied to those making over 18 million. That is when I quit trusting repubs.

  • @barsense As I said many times here, I AM NO REPUBLICAN! Why cant you people realise that its not just Republicans against this liberal government. I'm also a lot more liberal than people are aware but absolutely do not support this current administration. I will of course continue to pay my taxes and support this nation like I always have, by being a hard working productive person and offering gainful employment. But, you have asked my workers to take 3-5 years off to await imaginary recovery.

  • @barsense And from my perspective it seems as if many people have bought this administratins BS hook line and sinker, it works both ways. I think this president is an unrealistic condoscending piece of work and dont like his demeanor or is political socialist agenda. I dont like that this Harvard man has an ACLU mentality and will save the world at my expense whether I like it or not. I am also sick of the christian right, religious banterings and buffonery, the whole mess needs its ass kicked.

  • Comment removed

  • guitarplayer4real, my business is service industry we are labor industry, and yes construction and other service industries took a hit this recession just like they have other recessions and will the next recession also. But this recession started my friend BEFORE Obama, and this recovery compares extremely favorably with recoveries under republicans. There is no such thing as instant recovery from a bad recession. Our work picked up big time just recently, other areas may take longer

  • You should also check out the Small Business Act the democrats just passed

    tax cuts for small businesses and that is added to the cuts they already passed for small business with ARRA. The dems have NOT raised taxes on small business and they do not intend to, the tax cuts they are considering not renewing or individual not Business..

    .

  • Guitarplayer4real, you need to do some checking on your numbers, I do know the corporate tax rates and the highest is38% for those making less than 18 M 35% for over 18Million, and after deductions most corporations wind up paying 10 to 25 % max and any small business that pays more than that needs a new tax accountant.

    .

  • Republicans have been pulling the wool over our eyes, while they were getting everyone focused on Obama claiming big gov when he has merged some gov departments and done completely away with others they have been expanding state gov by leaps and bounds at least they have in MY state.

    .

  • Taxes , how many in your state is it repub or dem. mine is big-time republican and has been for years and we have 160 different taxes, fees, and assessments compared to democrat states that for the most part have 5 or 6. Small gov what a joke, we have 175 different state agencies and most dem states have about 75 agencies..

    .

  • Other countries protect their businesses, real estate, etc. China will not allow any foreign business unless it is in parternership with a Chinese firm, some products are strictly Chinese in China no foreign imports allowed, NO it is the free market, free trade ideology with no restrictions are protections for America that is what is criminal. Taxes you need to check history, Reagan a repub passed the larget tax increase in peacetime history of this country.

  • Obama has and is doing the right thing for America cutting back on foreign tax breaks in order to give American businesses more tax breaks. Under republican ideology too much of our infrastructure and to many national landmark bldgs. are now foreign owned. Foreign companies purchased our manufacturing industries in order get a corner on the market here and then opened factories in their countries to supply that market and shut down factories here. Vote dem do not sell out America.

  • Here is what free market, free trade , free enterprise ideology has done for America by 2006 the rest of the world owns way way more of American stocks, bonds, real estate, etc etc than America owns of the rest of the world. Major foreign buys of Merrill Lynch, Cititgroup, Morgan Stanley & other Wallstreet firms, sound recording 97% foriegn owned, commodities contracts dealing and brokerage 79% foreign controlled, motion picture & sound 75%, metal ore mining 65%, motion pictrue video 64% on &

  • @barsense No, thats what criminals have done for America. Like I said, it does need to be cleaned up but I still support free trade as an ideaology absolutely. The laws in place to keep me honest are not the same laws in practice to keep blue collar out of my pocket and yours. Since when does some drastic political swing suddenly remove the criminal element? Nope, I see more criminals and opportunity for rip off's during a liberal administration. You'll want 90% tax from me b4 long, forget it!
