Barack Obama in Portland, Oregon - October 20, 2010

[SirWinstonChurchill]

Shit Slobber...

Ha, ha, what a pile...

[MacBruce1]

@ StariSloven Good point. You knowvwhat would have been worse? A dry-drunk thrice failed businessman with the IQ of a cucumber. Oh, wait... we already tried that, which is how we ended up in this mess.

[MacBruce1]

@ DwightSimpson Please tell me you're not this dumb. When did the recession begin? What was the trend on Wall St at that time? We lost 4 mil jobs in six months. Since then, the trend has reversed, and 3 mil jobs have been created - more than W created in all 8 of his catastrophic years as prez.

[jellikit1939]

I like it when Obama tells us "Who's in the house."

[MacBruce1]

To all who continue to ignore those facts, why is it you never complained when GWB created this mess? Why only now are you bitching? Facts and truth are always optional with your side. But, I guess if I had to defend W's record, I'd lie too.

[MacBruce1]

@o0lBobl0o yep, he's added $3T to the debt. Both Bush's and his economists advised that without a massive stim package, the economy would collapse. Maybe, instead of blaming Obama for the debt that your guy created, you should thank him for saving the economy.

[Gpalmer16]

Bwhaha! Portland supporting Obama I saw none this time. Idiots. Your all on the band wagon of dumb. Well done portlanders. KEEEEEEEP Portland Weird. BWHAHAHA

[angelwatching1]

WE LOVE YOU MR PRESIDENT. YOU ARE A WINNER!

NO ONE IN THE GOP OR ANY ONE ELSE CAN MEASURE UP TO YOU. AND THEY ALL KNOW THIS, SO THEY HAVE TO TEAR YOU DOWN ANY HATEFUL WAY THEY CAN. THEY ARE THE LOSERS.

[DwightSimpson]

@angelwatching1 it is voters like you who will be the downfall of this nation... Do you not know that you and each of your relatives, family members, and children, and grand-children each owe $43,000 each in back taxes. Right now, 36 cents of each dollar spent by Obama is borrowed... "Hateful way?" "Hateful way?" "Losers?" "Losers?"....... For god's sakes, open your eyes, angelwatching1.., open your eyes.

[MacBruce1]

@DwightSimpson Dwight, again - you make a good point. But why blame it on Obama? Where you counting every cent when the debt went from 5 tril to 10.8 tril, or when the deficit went from a 400 bil surplus to 1.2 tril? Why did you start keeping track only after Obama inherited this mess? I know you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer, you've certainly established that... but you can wrap your brain around this one simple fact by now, can't you? OBAMA DIDN'T CREATE THE DEBT. YOU-KNOW-WHO DID.

[o0lBobl0o]

@MacBruce1 The question is why did you quit keeping track. Obama has created more debt than any other president ever. He already far exceeds bush after only 2 years

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson So were you mad at Bush for taking our surplus and turning it unto debt that your children will pay or is it just Obama

[MacBruce1]

@marrlawilkinson1, what were you wearing? There was a woman in a green coat to my left, and a younger couple just behind me. Small world! Well, city anyway...

[iloveukahlil]

@MacBruce1 i wish i was there :c!!!! the traffic was crazy on my way to school thou lol

[marrlawilkinson1]

How exciting! I think I was standing NEXT to you when you shot this video! I recognize people next to us in it! I was a blonde tall woman next to you! I also made the bird call sounds in the beginning! Ha Ha! I LOVE OBAMA!!

[joe035]

I guess Obama didn't look at Kitzhabers record before promoting him. Any sane or non public union democrat will vot for Dudley as we do not want to be like California!

[fishersnic]

@joe035 By California you mean a celebrity as a governor?

[joe035]

@fishersnic LOL nice spin! Of course you know i meant another state that can't live within a budget because of public unions that pull the strings of politicians like Kitzhaber who promises them everything in return for their votes. Voting for Kitzhaber is like voting for more taxes.

[arcayla2002]

Lets cut the small talk and get out and vote. They can say whatever they like but your vote will speak volumes....lets show them in numbers. PEOPLE LIE, NUMBERS DON'T" Lets go Dems!!

[joe035]

@arcayla2002 Obama has done a fine job of demonstrating how to lie. There is a means to an end and consequences that we will all have to face if we keep reelecting the people who have brought us to this point. A vote for Kitzhaber is a vote for more taxes as you know he already said Oregon is ungovernable!

[bjhbhyj]

Well for you president obama bashers you all are the most idotic, blind, believe what anybody would tell you people in the world and you all should be ashamed of you all selves.Would vote for a rock( a non-living object) if the Tea Party or The Republican told you that it would get us out this recession. You all make America Look Fucked up. Someone needs to beat in you all some common sense...thats all i got 2 say....Vote Democratic Keep President Obama In Office let him fulfill his promises.

[DwightSimpson]

@bjhbhyj Yeah, I would vote for a rock, or a non-living object if it could get it out of this recession.

It's quite apparent that the current path is leading us down the death spiral to unparalleled debt for each of our kids and grand-kids (each citizen of this country now owes $43,000.00 each). "Pay up, pay up, pay up," says Obama.

[50states1]

@bjhbhyj yes i agree obama 2012

[joe035]

@50states1 Why do you still support Obama?

[joe035]

@bjhbhyj Attacking Libya without Congress approval or provocation as law requires defines Obama as tyranical as GW!

Approving the to big to faill bailouts then extending them makes him GW's equal in corporate handouts.

Taking more money then ANY other candidate from Goldman Sachs douche bags then embracing Occupy Wallstreet makes him a hypocrit.

Mandating we buy a product from his corporate HMO friends instead of passing single payer redifining the Constitution makes him an ass.

[MacBruce1]

I get a kick out of you Obama bashers! You don't fear him because of the reasons you state, since they've been discredited. So what is it? Is it because he makes his predecessor's record look so bad? Or is it because he's black? Or... because he's a Kenyan/Socialist/Muslim without a birth certificate?

When you children are all grown up, c'mon back, and we'll discuss topical issues. In the meantime, keep listening to Hannity, Limbaugh and Beck. They've served you so well thus far, haven't they?

[fishersnic]

@MacBruce1

I love it, so refreshing to hear someone with some sense!!!

[50states1]

@MacBruce1 i agree there mad cause he gone win again obama 2012

[impeachobamanow2010]

MORE PAID & BRAINDEAD IDIOTS FOR OBAMA. OBAMA IS A JOKE!

[fishersnic]

@impeachobamanow2010

Your a joke, do your research.

[harleynut1969]

How do you separate the truth from the political rhetoric?

[DwightSimpson]

@dobba92 Have another glass of kool-aid to celebrate...

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson What is all this Kool aid business?? Can't come up with some actual substance? It sounds VERY CHILDISH. I am beginning to think that your thoughts have more to do with the color of his skin then about actual policy because nothing you have said makes any sense and you just can't leave the Kool-aid joke alone.

I think its time to ignore this guy hes just uneducated.

[MacBruce1]

Dwight, you're out of your league here. Go sell aluminum siding.

[LuvIzAhl]

@MacBruce1 Warren (from FB) here. YES WE CAN! WE ARE AND WE SHALL CONTINUE. LEFT ON!

[DwightSimpson]

@MacBruce1 You've got a great idea there--to sell aluminum siding...

The only problem is Obama has ravaged the economy to such an extent that even those jobs aren't available. Remember, when Obama was promoting his stimulus package in January of 2009, we were going to create a whole bunch of shovel ready jobs? At least, that was Obama's promise.

Now, just two weeks ago, Obama says there aren't any shovel ready jobs available. Darn it, aluminum siding fell into that category.

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson In Oregon alone there were thousands SAVED that would have otherwise been unemployeed and I don't know about you but if I were one of those people I would be thankful he did it. Lets stop this idea that this is all his fault. Did you think that he was a magician? A god? Should we get Clinton back? That would answer that problem for you right? Oh wait if we answered that problem you people would come up with another problem. It never ends.

[DwightSimpson]

@fishersnic You throw numbers around like Obama. Thousands of SAVED jobs? A saved job? What a joke? Obama is the only president in history to come up with a whole new category--saved Jobs?

Define what a SAVED JOB is? I defy you to do it. MORE IMPORTANTLY: What is the difference between a SAVED JOB and a job somebody didn't lose, but wasn't SAVED?? You can't answer that question!! And neither can Obama.

[iloveukahlil]

@DwightSimpson do u even live in oregon?lol

teacher,cop,fire men are jobs

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson

OK here you go, one of my best friends is a teacher and there were 300 that were to be "let go" until that is, the stimulus came. That teacher and 300 others through out the state were able to keep their jobs. Maybe you don't live in the real world maybe you are rich and have all rich friends who own their own companys. Maybe you are one of those who got laid off and is upset. Either way there ARE thousands who have the stimulus to thank whether you want to know it or not.

[iloveukahlil]

@fishersnic lol yes i love the way u think!!!

[tophacud]

@MacBruce1 what's wrong with aluminum siding? Obama & Biden are selling Serious Windows and those things are pieces of junk! FYI bud all these stimulus jobs go away indefinitely once Obama stops funding them, 100k to create a 40k a year job? Ridiculous, you can't take money from everyone and inject it into specific pieces of the economy and expect it to succeed, it's not fair...let the econ do what it does, we don't need the worst president in this country's history telling us what to do!

[fishersnic]

@tophacud What makes him the worst?? Killing thousands of our troops for oil and a vendeta? Sitting on his butt while illegals come in by the truckloads? Letting thousands of companys go overseas and giving them tax breaks for doing it? Letting ours schools and teachers suffer and cut PE,music and art classes? HUH????

Oh no wait, that was BUSH! Seriously turn off Fox news and do your own research. Those poeple are bought by big money, they don't have us in there hearts!

[tophacud]

@fishersnic hahaha is this a joke? remind me what obama said he'd do about the war less than 1 year after he took office? remind me how much obama has done to secure our borders? remind me why reading MacBeth was more important than reading the constitution? remind me how taking money from everyone and injecting it into facets of the economy to create artificial jobs is even ethical at best? I'm an independent and i dont watch tv, but I do know that anyone who still supports this guy is nutty!

[MacBruce1]

@tophacud No, it's not a joke. He left two years ago.

[fishersnic]

@tophacud

Let me remind you. We've added 1,200 reservists to the border, tighened down on returning illegals to Mexico and employeers who hire them illegal immigration is down 67% !! PS Reading anything is better then nothing which may be part of your problem. The constitution was written back when women, poor men under 29 and black people could not vote. If you want to read the constitution and be a patriot then respect OUR president and be hopefull that he can fix what be can.

[tophacud]

@fishersnic The age of the constitution somehow implies that it is racist and so old fashioned that it suddenly can no longer function? Obama will be in limbo for the next 2 years the least he could do is listen to the average person that EARNS a living. Hysterical you use the word "tighten" you should spend some time wondering where the social security money generated by illegal workers goes then try and tackle the question of why they don't take border security more seriously. loveyoudoucheB!

[MacBruce1]

Dwight, it shouldn't be necessary for you to lie to stay in the conversation. He didn't "guarantee" that unemp. would be at 8%. He predicted it, and he was wrong. That doesn't make him a liar. And let us not forget that when W left office in 1/09, unemp was 7.6, up from 3.3 under Clinton. The trend was down, down, down... are you saying Obama's a failure because he couldn't reverse the damage W did in his first two years? Yes, we point backwards and blame Bush. After all, he did it.

[DwightSimpson]

@MacBruce1 I'll bet you can't write a complete paragraph without the word "Bush" in it.....

[DwightSimpson]

Respond to this video... Call it what you wish in your kool-aid stupor to protect your anointed one, i.e. "not a lie but a failed predicition." Then you start rambling on again about Bush....

Need I say more?

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson "Kool-aid stupor???"

I'm sure this is meant to rile people up but I need to tell you that its unclassy, and the GOP is after all the classiest group right? Better then all? Richer, prettier, whiter??? NO?

[fishersnic]

@MacBruce1

AMEN

[DwightSimpson]

Obama, the man who has to run to the states of Oregon, Washington, and California at the last moment to try to prop up his dwindling base that has lost faith in the guy.... lost faith in the "hope, change, yes we can" message that got him elected in 2008. Oh yeah, I forgot. It really wasn't Obama's message that got him elected (he didn't have one), it was the voter's disdain for Bush that got Obama elected.

So yeah, we can blame Bush alright, for getting Obama elected in the first place.

[DwightSimpson]

Obama, the man who guaranteed if his stimulus plan were passed (and if you recall, it had to be passed IMMEDIATELY) unemployment would not increase above 8.0%. Where is it NOW, folks? Yeah, you got it right for once, it's 9.7%.

Aren't you tired of being fed the kool-aid? Can't you see the hand-writing on the wall? And all you can do is point backwards and blame Bush..

When, oh when, do the Democrats finally take responsibility, come clean, and admit that their nanny state is a hoax?

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson Can you name some reason NOT to blame BUSHY????????? You keep getting irritated that people blame him but why not???

[MacBruce1]

Also Dwight, Bush took a $400 bil surplus and turned it into a $1.2 Tril deficit. He took our $5 Tril debt and more than doubled it to $10.2. Barack Obama has had to increase it to $13 to keep us from going into another Republican GREAT DEPRESSION. And you're accusing Obama of spending us into a pit? Yes, you and the Teabigots are going to clean up on Nov. 2, but that too is temporary. The figures are in, and no more evidence is needed: conservatives don't know how to govern.

[MacBruce1]

I see we've picked up a Faux News Klingon already. Dwight, let's reflect: Who trashed the economy? Who was it that lost 4 million jobs in 5 months? Who created less than 1 million jobs in 8 years (Clinton created 23 mil)? Who lied the country into war in Iraq? Who was prez when the price of a gallon of gas tripled? Who was prez when the number of BILLIONAIRES doubled, but the rest of us lost 5% of our wealth? Yeah, now you're catching on. That Faux News is turning your brain into elephant poo!

[DwightSimpson]

@MacBruce1 The Congress, by the way, approved the war in Iraq. Check your records.

Check this out as well. Before being elected, your "Mr. super kool-aid salesman" had never even run a corner grocery store--no administrative experience whatsoever. That's the problem with the Democrats, great at selling the kool-aid and the nanny state, but VERY POOR at money management and governing.

[fishersnic]

@DwightSimpson The congress that was controlled by the GOP?? I would rather have someone who cares about people running this country then someone who is OWNED MY BIG OIL, PHARM COMPANYS AND has no brain in his head.

[fishersnic]

@MacBruce1 I love it... This is one of the greatest comments I've read. :)

[macroevolve]

Since you can see into the future, what are next week's lottery numbers?

[DwightSimpson]

@macroevolve Great point you make. That's about all that is left of our once great economy--the lottery or selling weed out of California. Thanks for your contribution.

[slickshoes18]

So tell me who would you vote for right now Dwight? Considering Republicans said they wont change anything if they get into office and they personally lost 3 million jobs and started 1 illegal war and had the biggest collapse of finance industry since great depression....means it must be a no vote for you. Or are you the Gullable one to vote GOP in again.

[DwightSimpson]

It’s being reported that the economy lost 95,000 jobs in September. And that’s just people leaving the White House.

[DwightSimpson]

Obama can try to fire up the Oregonians all he wants... but the nuts and bolts is that with all his health care lies to the American people, Obama and the Democrats will soon be voted out of office. Let's not forget the "Louisiana Purchase", the "Cornhusker kick-back", and all of the other payoffs and corruption. Obama is a liar plain and simple.

The people of Oregon are a lot more gullible than the people of the United States. Obama and Oregon will go down the death spiral together.

[DwightSimpson]

How stupid the people of Oregon are... They'll cheer their hearts out as this president bankrupts their children...
