Crist Praises Obama in February: Passing Stimulus is 'About Helping Our Country'

[kweer58]

The scene at 2:00 appears to cash in on the viewers' dislike of male homosexuality. Both men -- Charlie Crist (in the movie "Outrage") and Barack Obama (as claimed by Larry Sinclair) have been accused of having male homosexual encounters.  As for me, I dislike/distrust Charlie Crist for a whole different set of reasons.

The administration has been reluctant to respond to the way the economic crisis has unevenly impacted racial and ethnic communities. Before the recession hit, the unemployment rate for Black and Latinos hovered around 8 percent and has nearly doubled since then after the failed stimulus bill.

[AstoundedAtheist]

Sounds like a lot of baseless speculation.

[maximouni]

Hope you have your boots on because the bull crap is gonna get higher. Florida is full of alot of older Americans and they haven't voted this neo-con out. It's time to start protesting were ever the governor is all the time.

[fancychance57]

some sources say 10% of the stimulus went to infrastructure projects ... the other 90% went to lobby congress... i think the source was max keiser. ALSO, people that only watch mainstream media really show their ignorance in some of these comments.

[EmpathyWorks]

You have absolutely no idea what youre talking about.

Youve been hoodwinked by your news sources. Id STRONGLY recommend that you get some better outlets for news.

[WKaliberr]

Crist is a secret homosexual

[1samothrace77]

AND ?

[WKaliberr]

nothing if he didn't vote against increasing civil rights of homosexuals

[ETericET]

so ?

[WinterHaven]

Charlie Crist is a piece of shit. Though I live in California, I can see a political opportunist only, he got married because he was possibly one of McCain's running mates. He supports & passed keeping LOADED GUNS at the work place because the NRA supported it (now managers are afraid for their life when they have to lay off people they may get shot), & he appoints his BEST FRIEND to keep his senate seat warm when he runs. What a lying sack of shit, just like Schwarzenegger who is also SHIT.

[ryanruns]

But... what has the stimulus done? (by the way, I fully supported and voted for Obama, am almost exclusively liberal in my ideology, and had great hopes for this President)

[keithalanjohnson]

MIddle class tax break, extending unemployment so folks more don't go homeless, and tossing cash towards infrastructure projects? I don't expect the government to magically prevent the pain of the worst recession since the great depression, but it's kind of silly to say that it hasn't done anything.

[savior02]

what a bunch of sheeple in the back!!!

[scytheboy]

People still say sheeple? Do they know how dumb they sound?

[AstoundedAtheist]

Civil war over what?

[jamesmaseobrown]

Well, a conservative who sounds sensible... There might be hope after all.

I fear he may not have a long career in that party, because there are way too many extremist who are in control. They consider a moderate Republican as a leftist traitor.

President Abraham Lincoln's birthday is not in October.

President Lincoln was born February 12, 1809.

[keithalanjohnson]

The beginning of the video shows when it was filmed. The video was taken in February and reposted in October.

[pokermaster54]

"Charlie Crist should run as an independent or a Democrat, because the stimulus was definitely not a Republican idea."

Good job summarizing the republican position. "If it's not our idea we will do everything to thwart it". You're so used to it that you don't see the flaw in that thinking.

[ecwaufisxtreme]

Crist is Sarah Palin's DICKLESS and BALLESS BITCH and PUSSY! Palin is a SUPERIOR politician, governor and statesman than this ass-clown could ever be. She is also MORE MAN than he is for Crist wears the skirt in his family while his wife wears the pants!

[EnAttendantG0D0T]

Sarah Palin, joke.

[toribaltimore]

Republicans -

Do you see that? That's what it looks like when you don't talk like a prick; that's what it looks like when people like you.

[PersonalJesus348]

that stimulus was textbook trickle down effect. AND IT DIDN'T WORK!

Lets do it our way now.

[3star2nr]

lol where did the stimulus money go idiot? To big corporations or to states to extend federal umemployment?

[greyflcn]

re: PersonalJesus

That certainly puts things in perspective.

[pokermaster54]

you had your ways for 8 years and it failed. Now we're doing it our way. Meanwhile you can go fuck yourself or go suck on imaginary jesus' balls.

[Mauhadeeb28]

The Democratic Stimulus isn't working either. Why? Because Dems and Republicans are both fighting a common enemy: individual freedom. Neither party is concerned with how much money any American has except for themselves, that is. They both want power, and are doing whatever is necessary to keep it between the two of them, and out of our hands. I can't believe how many people still think this is a Liberal vs Conservative/ American vs American issue. It simply is not. Its government vs people.

[sailfished]

If the folk who are still supporting this monster have not figured it out by now then they probably never will. The sincere ,intelligent Obama supporters who used to frequent this site are largely gone . Only the shrill ,ignorant pottymouths are still in the tank for Obama. There is a war coming . It is between freedom and totalitarianism , I will fight these pricks come what may

[fatcharlie24]

Do you really believe a war is coming? Seriously? I feel sorry for people who see things in such stark terms.

[sailfished]

If you are unable to see what is happening then I do not know what to say. As a student of history I realize that we are not immune to the human condition. Good luck

[MrZippa]

I assume you had these concerns when Bush initiated domestic warrantless wiretapping, ditched habeas corpus, funded pro-administration news coverage, and pushed through the first gigantic bailout.

If not, well then you really aren't  concerned with freedom. You're just creeped out by Obama and a little nutty.

[MrZippa]

Spoke too soon :)

[sailfished]

your initialcuriousity regarding my concern was and is correct,Do I detect a bit of disingenuosness in you query/ summary?I assume you are aware that these policies have been maintained and amplified by the {new } administration

[MrZippa]

Your expansion of your remarks changed my impression of you from paranoid Republican to equal-opportunity critic, which I think is a very healthy stance :).

[sailfished]

I was a bit hasty also in that I jumped to the conclusion that your comment was going to be unfair ,thanks, take care

[sailfished]

btw , I am ,and have been equally opposed to the repubs and the dems who in my opinion are akin to 2 crime families in a turf war who never the less will unite against the honest pol, or shopkeeper or beat cop lest they lose their grip on power. Peace

[Mauhadeeb28]

History shows what Sailfish said to be an almost inevitable outcome. Though, God willing, it does not have to be that way.

[moregravyplease]

I understand you oppose the President's agenda, but do you realize that your comments just sound totally crazy and off-the-wall? I mean, you may have some sort of a legitimate criticism, but whatever it might be just gets lost in the copious amounts of non-sense you spew. Seriously, your arguments are just not persuasive AT ALL. In fact, your purpose here as a CONCERN TROLL is so over-the-top obvious, that I can't help but wonder if you are some sort of avante-guard (and very unfunny) comedian.

[sailfished]

I would gladly embrace the persona of an avant garde comedian if that would negate the reality of the constituitional crises our country is in

[PersonalJesus348]

Your an obvious idiot...

[pokermaster54]

wow good one.

who believes that life has a fairy tale ending? And they happily lived ever after in a paradise..... Grow up. When you die you go to the same place you were before you were born: NOWHERE. Now stop making the world a crappy place by deluding yourself and trying to convince other people that earth is just a place for you to wipe your dirty feet before getting into a paradise.

[EnAttendantG0D0T]

Republican idea? Well to be honest it was a neo-conservative idea, which doesn't represent pure republican ideology, yes, but it does represent a strong sect within the party.
