President Obama on Stabilizing the Auto Industry

we have two member that made video that show a assault on children and women ( when car dealers attack )

LMAO. LMAO. So he came in with "lilly white hands"? PLEASE. He VOTED FOR the TARP program that was the start of this ridiculous bailout package! And now that he's President, he's done nothing but EXPAND it, makiing it even worse. So YES, he WAS and IS part of the problem.

That's the problem with the average citizen and politics. 99% of the population has the "don't blame me, I voted for the other guy" mentality. And as long as we keep arguing "party" over "principles", we're screwed.

Guess what docgambee, McCain and Hillary voted for TARP as well!!! But trust me, America was headed down the wrong path before Pres. Bush propsed TARP! Pres. Obama made the ARRA into law because consumers, in large part, do not have money to put back into the economy. Government was the only entity that could ultimately jumpstart the economy. Besides, I wrote my comment two months ago...why are you just now responding?

Name one thing that the gov't has "jumpstarted"... ever. Education? I don't think so. Social Security? Whatever. Health Care? Please. etc. etc.

Governments are NEVER the solution to a depression, and they are often the CAUSE of it.

The only thing that's going to "jumpstart" our economy is if Gov't gets out of the way. We're the most prosperous country EVER for a reason, and it's not because of gov't regulations.

Less gov't. More responsibility. Quit asking the gov't to babysit us.

And believe you me, I don't have a , "don't blame me, I voted for the other guy" mentality, even though you feel 99% of the population does. The problem was no one was holding our elected officials in Washington accountable, and I applaud Pres. Obama for trying to turn that around. It really baffles me that so many people in this country didn't seem to care that Bush ran the federal decit to 1.3 trillion, but when Obama comes in, everyone is steaming mad...I wonder why...hmmm.

I sure as hell wouldn't have voted for Hillary, and DIDN'T vote for McCain. They wouldn't have done any better. (and I didn't vote for Bush either)

I agree with you on 2 things- 1) America was already heading down the wrong path before TARP. 2) No one was holding our elected officials accountable (and haven't for decades...)

Obama has tried to turn that around? How?? By spending even more money?? He's trying to make "socialism" more "efficient", which is just ridiculous and impossible.

The reason consumers don't have money to put back into the economy is because Gov't is too big and taxes way too much! Our dollar is worthless because of decades of forced inflation by the Fed Reserve.

"Gov't is the only entity that could jumpstart the economy"???? Gimme a freakin' break. The only way the gov't can do anything is if they TAX YOU AND ME FIRST. Out of every dollar they TAX, only about $.20 (if that) is actually used for it's "purpose". The rest is lost in endless bureaucracy.

The only way we're going to get things turned around is by holding our congressmen and senators accountable, and removing them if they keep sending us down this road and replace them with people with principles.

The Presidential election hype is nothing more than a sideshow designed to distract us into thinking that it actually matters who's President.

The President can't lower your taxes. Only Congress can. President can't pass laws. Only Congress can. Etc. Etc.

Wake up America.

Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence.

I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.
