The problem isn't his use of the phrase "Thingamajig." It's his transparent belief in the "parable of the broken window," which Bastait proved was false centuries ago. If you destroy something in order to spend money on fixing it, that does not stimulate the economy. If the public sector takes $3,000 from the private sector, then gives it back to fix or buy a thingamajig, that does not stimulate the economy. How is this not understood? Economics is 90% logic, 10% numbers.

Wasn't this fool elected to do something? Campaigning and appearing on any show that will book him is not work. Just more promises that will never come to pass, much like promising blacks everything in 2008 for thier vote and once inaugurated turned his back on each and every one of them!

Shittiest manufactured controversy ever...

[hotchiliedouble]

LIKE so it spreads around. if you dislike nobody's going to see it!

why only 3000? why not a million?

ALSO, why don't YOU make yourself watch some of BOTH and SEE FOR YOURSELF which one lies! There is nothing like learning how you're being duped first-hand. Mostly MSNBC lies about how much FOX lies in order to preserve their viewers. More people watch FOX than ALL the other news stations combined. Watch it for yourself- Hannity or O'reilly or Greta and you will see a whole new world, like i did. I couldn't believe it at first but the truth is the truth is the truth.

That tells me you are obviously unaware of what I say IS true. Go see and EDUCATE yourself first before you say I'm lying. Also your bank account is tied in to obamacare and if you have to go to the hospital without having med. insurance you will be fined $2,000 and any money owed in medical $ will be taken from future tax-returns AND the IRS is tied into you bank accounts and credit cards and they will take your money from there. Look it up! They asked for more security in Benghozi...DENIED.

....AND OBAMA LOVES AMERICA'S POOR SO MUCH HE IS CREATING MILLIONS MORE OF THEM!

[dantheleo]

Sorry, you are wrong! I lived through this time you are referring to and remember the speech Reagan gave very clearly, and he ran right over the democrats and they all towered in fear of Reagan!

Also, when you have the super majority in both houses there is nothing you can't do. Maybe you should learn the structure of the Senate and Congress so you can make informed comments...dumbass!

[dantheleo]

LOL The democrats didn't work with Reagan, he just ran over them and most conformed to his plans for the future, because it was the right thing to do.  I guess you were to young to know what actually happened at the time and were confused.

Are you forgetting that obama had a democrat majority in Congress and the Senate for the first two years, I guess so!

The 2010 election was won by the Republican majority to stop obama! They are just doing what they were elected to do, STOP OBAMA!

[Steven Hoog]

The other networks DO LIE because I make myself watch them, especially MSNBC. Fox reported that Mitt said that and laughed. MSNBC reported it for 3 weeks. Mostly they lie about FOX lieing. Sarah Palin gets ONE letter of a word wrong "refudiate" instead of repudiate and she is laughed at for WEEKS, while the liberals who make BIG HUGE gaffs don't get a single mention. Like obama pronouncing Navy Private Corpsman Bruchard as Private corpse-man not core-man and he is our Commander in Chief ? on&on

That statement by Romney was a joke. You & all the other leftists are too stupid to get it.

"The other networks don't lie like Fox does"? You THINK Fox lies because it isn't a puppet for the liberals and doesn't spew their lies.

"Cutting taxes has never helped". That is the dumbest statement I've ever heard. When did our federal government have the biggest revenue in American history? When George W. Bush signed in the biggest tax cuts in American history. More people were working & paying taxes.
