@johnluke1169 You are wrong about the Republicans, The Democrats have had control of congress sense 2006 so it was the Democrats watch...........

Since 2008, we have lost 7.8 million jobs. What else has to be said about his achievements? Oh, today he lifted the oil drilling ban --yea, the elections are coming up. So he shut down our oil drilling while loaning 2 billion of our money to Brazil for their oil exploration and has no problem with Mexico drilling oil in the Gulf Coast.

@sparkyj99 Hey moron, the oil price hike in 2007-2008 was not because of some oil fire, damn, or you gettng confused when saddam set ablaze his oil fields? The gas hike ended the selling of the Hummer and then the housing market busted out. Go blame Chris Dood, Barney Frank and the dem congress that said that there was nothing wrong with the fann/freddie process--what year are you living in. Dont get mad at me that Obama is a failure.

@joskemom ~~> I bet you have... I'm sure the tube has told you all about them & every other senerio you throw out there... You need to study some history lady... Imaginery oil field fires... Yeah, that was a good one... Maybe you should go look at the burning bush telling folks to go buy houses "even if your credit an't so good"... But I doubt you will, FACTS don't seem to be your style... And about the oil thing, how nieve do you sound after what the gulf just went through....

[joskemom]

@sparkyj99 Your tax bracket, I dont care. Oil cost went up in 2007/2008, long after Irag was taken over. It was oil speculators that ran up the prices and not your imaginery oil field fires. ( No more Hummers) The Dems along with the envirenut cases prevent us from drilling our own damn oil and spare me the hapless victim dems in congress crap. They took over the house in 2006 and protected the fanni/fredd/ fiasco-ever hear of Chirs Dood and Barney Frank?

@joskemom ~~> 1st of all you have no idea what tax bracket I am in & you can play the dem congress bit that did what they could in war time under veto threats & exec orders... Don't act like the lil dick/bush didn't throw thier power around... & FYI the price of gas went up becasue we went to war with a major oil producer & then set the oil fields on fire but I'm sure that had nothing to do with it... The global price of crude went up because of a dem congress... You really are a joke...

Basically what we got is the small govt/individual responsiblity minded people vs Big ass govt/govt dependant people. The group of people that follow Obama's logic is not the type of people that would have founded a nation like this. It still sounds dumb---pay for a tax cut. We the people keeping more of the money we earn are told we have to pay for it.

@sparkyj99 Oh you asked questions, I'm sorry, when a person writes so much crap I dont read all their post-and you love to write. Your perception of corps (I am incorporated ) of the evil, bloodsucking, slave loving villians is just comic book mentality. Basically it is the rant the "I cant get mine" give out of desperation. You got to blame someone and out Whiner in chief leads the way. Let me guess, socialism is the answer.

@sparkyj99 hey sparky, you got loser syndrome but how about a review. What part of 4.9% unemployment do you not like back in the Bush era? What was wrong with the IRS collected record revenues? If you check the news back then you would see that the DEMS took over congress in 2006--presidents can not work a budget without approval of congress. Remember the rising gas prices and , oh yea that fanni/freddie thing thing that the DEMS protected. But goahead, believe in Obamawama.
