And I saw thrones, and they that sat on them. And judgment was given to them, and to the souls of the ones having been beheaded because of the witness of Jesus, and because of the Word of God, and who had not worshipped the beast nor its image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand. Revelation 20:4

"In a move sure to spark outrage, the White House announced today that GM and Chrysler must cease participation in NASCAR at the end of the 2009 season if they hope to receive any additional financial aid from the government," d(*-*)b "A complete withdrawal from America's premier racing series is expected to save more than $250 million between GM and Chrysler, a substantial amount considering the drastic measures being implemented elsewhere."

N^gger prez is just white washing the public! TAX PAYER money bail's GM out eitherway! This is what free trade and the greed of corporation's to spin off extra cash to the banks by using foriegn labor! I remember the time's before the goverment legalized free trade. The whole American workforce was complaining about foriegn sweet shop's and their jobs being lost to those workers! GM's only restructuring more jobs to the oversea's manufacturing base! We are going to a third world labor force!

Dear N^gger Prez,Why dont you tax all online auction sales and tax the boooze and corprate welfare checks they get to run for office. Please address this Ic3 FBI subcontracter for fraud,Remove ebay from the internet and buy LIQUIDITY SERVICES whom you pay with tax dollars to sell goverment junk some forklift weight scales so they will behonest about shipping weight on auction's.

One more thing, tell you wife she need's a chicken coup to go with her garden. Thanks...

We need a town hall cable channel to discuss goverment issue's! We could eliminate dirty politician's county by county:State by state by voting them out!

The problem is we don't have people that know how to live within a budget running this country. Until we do we will have these problems. Keep electing millionaires to government people and then complain about how they spend your money.

Sorry, I should have called it laissez-faire. It's called "completely ignore rising unemployment and leave it up to the invisible hand to work everything out." People like this were broadly hated by the populace during the great depression but since then people have forgotten. Markets are not sacred. They very often fail.

I'm equally amazed that you think giving tax cuts to BOTH individuals and businesses qualifies as "trickle down" economics.
