He's such a con-artist. Truthfully speaking, there is no LEFT!! There is no RIGHT!! Of course most Sheeple can't accept this fact. The sad thing about this fact is Sheeple will argue to death without even trying to search the real truth. Thousands worth of years of practice deceiving the mass. They have mastered the art!! Anyone dispute this claim in my book are idiots, TRUTH!!

This guy is hysterical. He would be 10 times better selling used cars than he is being president. How much longer do we have listen to this horseshit?? I love the fact that unless we give him another 500 billion to launder through unions then bridges will collapse and physically disabled children will die...You know what. screw the used car gig.. I think he would be the best Televangelist out there!

OK. THERE SHOULD BE NOTHING CONTROVERSIAL ABOUT THE AMERICAN JOBS ACT. IF PASSED, THIS BILL WOULD'VE PUT MORE PEOPLE BACK TO WORK, SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS WILL GET A TAX CUT FOR HIRING NEW WORKERS AND RAISE WORKERS WAGES AND SMALL BUSINESSES WILL GET THEIR PAYROLL TAXES CUT IN HALF NEXT YEAR. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY OBAMA SHOULD BE BLAMED FOR THIS RECESSION. GEORGE W. BUSH STARTED IT AND REPUBLICANS REFUSED TO PASS HIS LAWS, THAT MADE THE ECONOMY WORSE.

Before Reagan, we were STRONG, SUSTAINABLE, STABLE, and EQUITABLE. After Reagan, we were still strong and stable, but sustainability and equity died with Reagan (both the debt/GDP and wealth inequality rose thanks to his failed trickle-down policies). And that led to the instability and the weakness of the US today.

Cain possibly was the best candidate. Too bad he's morally bankrupt. Obviously when a conservative cheats, blame it on the libs, but never vice versa, right?

@nafaidni where the hell do you get your facts?? sure under regan we had a strong military but under bush's and Clinton and now obama the mitliary is the ONLY thing thats keeping Unemployment down.. Under regean we were STRONG. Debt was down.under Obama DEBT is highest it has EVER BEEN and STILL CLIMBING and military is WEAK.. bottom line. is NO TO OBAMA in 2012.. Best candidate was MR CAIN but dems pulled out the Mud slinging bullshit to keep him down.. lets get a rep in there and end Welfare!

@realussoldier45

About 90% of the current debt can be traced down to his spending, his VP's spending, and his VP's son's spending and failure to govern.

@realussoldier45

Lol, REAGAN!? Reagan was the WORST president since Herbert Hoover! And the worst post-WWII president except for W. Bush!

He tripled the national debt. He increased the debt/GDP ratio for the first time since 1940 (I.e. he BOUGHT his growth with government spending). He began the overexpansion of the US military that we are so used to today. He set the precedent for the failed trickle-down economic system that currently fails to make jobs even as the top 1% prosper.

@spquinn14 again.. I did not say that bush did not make any mistakes. In fact i said the ONLY good president was REAGAN.. but bush HAD NOTHING to do with this mess. this is ALL that dumb OBAMA.. he spends and spends and spends.. ooh and he has the LARGEST staff as does his wife .. SO where are his cutbacks?? where is al ltha tmoney going>? down the tubes.. OBAMA CARE?? DISASTER.. GAYS IN THE MILITARY (JUST STUPID) HIS SOCIALIST POLICIES are killing america.. lets simply agree to disagree..

[spquinn14]

@realussoldier45 THE REASON BUSH WAS RE-ELECTED WAS BECAUSE AL GORE (Democrat) WON THE POPULAR VOTE. HOWEVER, BUSH WON THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTE. ALSO, YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT OBAMA NOT FIXING THIS RECESSION. GEORGE BUSH WANTED TO DE-REGULATE BUSINESS AND LOWER INTEREST TAX RATES, WHICH LED US INTO A RECESSION. SECOND, THE REPUBLICANS HAVE THE MOST NUMBER OF SEATS IN CONGRESS NOW. THE REPUBLICANS ARE NOT PASSING OBAMA'S LAWS INCLUDING THE AMERICAN JOBS ACT AND THE HEALTH CARE BILL.
