  Are you serious?  I mean you actually believe that because we have Obama in office we elected more of the people responsible for our current situation.  I mean sure I don't think that he is the best president that ran and i'm not saying that the republicians had the best president either.  However, I can say that out of the two I think I would of taken the people's choice to be the right one.  The fact that our economy is on a meltdown isn't really anyone's fault.  It was going to happen sooner or later anyways.  That is what happens to the must powerful and stronger places.  People know that we use gas and they know people smoke and are addicts.  Therefore what do you do if you want to make money?  Raise prices.  We have to buy it right? of course.  I mean no matter what.  I have seen the e-mails about lets not buy gas on tuesdays and thursdays blah blah blah.  That isn't going to solve anything that is just going to make more people buy on the other days of the week.  I say if you want to help the economy just tell all the companies listen we can't get your money from everyone because our nation has to much of a debt to be able to do anything.  The Government should help the companies stay on there feet and the companies should just write off what the people of the nation owe them.  That would help everything because everyone that owes a lot of debt and stuff can get back on there feet and have a new start in life.  ( This day will never come)  People care to much about money and because of that inflation is always going to be nipping at the heels of the money makers.

  I don't know who to blame, I just think it is horrific and wonder what and how we are going to get out of it.

• ALIENated said on Apr 12, 2009....

  
  Yes, I am serious. The Democrat party is made up of people who are voting
  as their father and mother, grandfather and grandmother did. It used to be
  the party of the people. The Democrat party has moved farther and farther
  to the left over the last three or four decades (so has the Republican party
  to a lesser degree). The Democrat party is the party of immorality and
  corruption (abortion, homosexuals, illegal immigrants, gambling, legalized drugs,
  reduced rights like gun control, atheism, on and on). The Republicans have 
  messed up mainly by trying to be more like Democrats (Bush's immigration 
  cock-up, for example). Bush tried to reign in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac a 
  couple of years ago, but Democrats like FranK and Christopher would have 
  none of it and blocked those attempts. I will admit that Bush should have 
  been stronger on those demands, but he was, unfortunately, too consumed 
  by trying to justify his response to terrorism (like invading Iraq, which should 
  have been done even if 9/11 had not happened to get rid of Sodamn Hussein).
  Democrats are the ones who are leaning toward the losing proposition called 
  socialism. People like Barney and Christopher (and probably ACORN) created 
  laws so that banks were forced to give people with no money a loan for a 
  house. That is just stupid. Would you loan money to someone who could not 
  possibly pay it back? Of course, the financial wizards made the best of it (they
  have to make money to stay in business and keep us all employed) and started 
  bundling these STUPID, IRRESPONSIBLE loans and selling them, blah blah blah. 
  It is one thing to be loyal to your team, but people need to examine the team 
  to which they are being loyal. The Democrat party is made up of poor blacks 
  who are desparate for a hand out instead of making their own way, liberal 
  Hollywood types, wacko environmentalists (like Al "Global Warming" Gwhore), 
  atheists, abortionists, homosexuals, on and on and on. That is not a party of 
  the people anymore. The Democrat party is the party of the wackos, weird, 
  immoral, and disgusting. I will admit there are older Democrats who are unaware
  of the factions that have taken over their once great and noble party. I am by
  no means touting the Republican party as a whole lot better. They have their
  problems as well, but they are much more in line with realism, morality, and 
  common sense than the Democrat party is now or has been for a long time. 
  Think about it. The weirdo base of the Democrat party has convinced much of
  the nation that murdering our unborn children is just fine and that man/man 
  and woman/woman marriage (not to mention homosexuality in general) is 
  perfectly acceptable. Atheism, or at best agnosticism, is almost a requirement
  for buying into the Democrat platform these days. Is there any wonder Christians,
  Jews, and reasonable Muslims (as opposed to radical USA-hating Muslims) are 
  flocking to the Republican party? When someone mentions the Christian right, as
  if they are mentioning a group that would squash babies with a steamroller, I just
  have to say ... yes, so what? Where else do you expect God-fearing believers to
  migrate to? Just about every thing the Democrats are adament about these days
  contradicts the word of God. Think about it.

  I got 1 name for you followed by his band of Merry Followers called: George Bush and his greedy band of good ole boys

• ALIENated said on Apr 12, 2009....

  
  Probably partially true. I will wait patiently as your view of BO deteriorates (along
  with your finances) over the next few years. Hopefully, prayerfully, less than four
  more years. Not every rich, white guy is a bad guy and not every black guy is a 
  good guy. BO is definitely not a good guy as far as his world view and his plans 
  for America. My distaste for him is strictly due to his politics and his stance on
  murdering babies, not his touch of black blood. I would take George Bush any day
  over BO and his band of dopey men (and women). But as Democrats often point
  out when I reference the Clinton administration, what difference does it make.
  Clinton (and Bush) are gone. No matter what they did or did not do, they are of
  no importance now. It is only important that BO turn his train (of thought) 
  around and stop railroading us into the abyss of socialism, anti-Christianism,
  immorality, and murder. 
  
  

• javadewd said on Apr 12, 2009....

  So Obama said during his campaign that he wouldn't hire any lobbyists...
  
  Can anybody tell me where the last place Eric Holder, Tom Vilsack, William Lynn, William Corr, David Hayes, Mark Patterson, Ron Klain, Mona Sutphen, Melody Barnes, Cecilia Munoz, Patrick Gaspard, and Michael Strautmanis worked? No? Well, look here! Liar, liar, pants on fire -- But it's all Bush's fault, right??
  
  

• ALIENated said on Apr 12, 2009....

  
  BO is a silver-tongued politician who is just black enough that he rode the
  "first black president" train into the White House (even prominent Republicans
  like Colonoscopy Powell turned coat and voted for him). That is all well and 
  good. The People want a black president, I heard someone say during the
  campaign. Well, we got what The People wanted, and look what we got--
  an inexperienced twit. I do not mind having a black president (even if BO is
  little more mixed race than I am), but that is an incredibly stupid reason to 
  elect someone to lead our country. BO made a multitude of promises during 
  his run for president that he had no intention of keeping. Of course, his main
  chant--change--will probably be the main thing he does ... change America 
  to a socialist pile of crap. I pray that there are enough clear-thinking
  Democrats in congress that will do what is right for the country, and not
  what is right for BO and his socialist agenda. 
  
  

• javadewd said on Apr 12, 2009....

  I wouldn't give a shit if he was purple with pink polka dots. He's a trojan horse. He's going to end up fucking both Dems and Reps before his term is up, not to mention the American people and our beloved country.

• kelly said on Apr 12, 2009....

  "But it's all Bush's fault, right??"
  
  
  Probably not.  But he did have 8 years to do something about it.  Instead he chose to start a useless, life-draining, resource-sucking war in Iraq.

• javadewd said on Apr 13, 2009....

  Yeah, Kelly, you're dog gone right, Bush should have made it to where Obama wouldn't lie to the American people when Obama said he wouldn't have any lobbyists as part of his administration... Yeah! It's all Bush's fault!!
  
  I pray your family never becomes a victim of terrorism...
  
  Now go hump PieterOpie's leg for a while, the adults are talking here, sweetie.

• secretlife said on Apr 13, 2009....

  The fact is that the roots of this economic crisis go back to the Clinton and Carter Administrations, the radical group ACORN, Barney Frank (D-MA), Christopher Dodd.

  I agree with you on the above Alien.

  But Bush has to take some accountability in that he was told the bubble would burst and that the banking industry was in serious trouble, yet didn't respond.

  Obama is a dangerous politician....He's full of fancy, teleprompter-read-exactly-picked words that woo the American people who are far too used to style over substance. 
  
  

• ALIENated said on Apr 13, 2009....

  
  I wonder if the people of Iraq would agree with Kelly. I suppose Bush could have
  done more, but it was probably pretty hard fighting a war on terrorists (in several
  places, not jut Iraq) and a war with Democrats, the media, and Hollywood here
  at home. But it really does not matter what Bush did. What BO is doing is just
  going to make it worse, a typical thing that Democrats do -- they create a 
  problem and then create more problems when they attempt to fix it. Some call
  it job security. I call it Big Government and socialism.
  
  

• curmudgeon said on Apr 13, 2009....

  As Alien points out, it is hard work waging war with terrorists, so he's just stopped using the term "war." Now it's contingency operations. What was that about being slick?
  
  As for the economy, in Geithner and Summers and all the others you couldn't get guys who are more up Wall Street's ass than them. This is change? Please!
  

• javadewd said on Apr 13, 2009....

  Kudos to secretlife, ALIENated and curmudgeon... I think I'm finding a happy place...
  
  

• stopmediabias said on Apr 13, 2009....

  Kelly-Al Gore would have gone into Iraq, the Democrats voted right along with the Republicans to go in there.  Plus haven't you seen?  We won in Iraq.  Don't you think the world is a better place?

  Alien-It's interesting that if you factor in Ted Steven's bogus conviction, and if the media was fair in this coverage of the meltdown during the election, President Obama's lead kind dwindles down to nothing, even with a moderate like McCain.  

• ALIENated said on Apr 13, 2009....

  
  The media has its place, but only if it is objective. News outlets like MSNBC and 
  most of the other network news outlets are now blatantly backing the liberal /
  Democrat / socialist agenda. They no longer even try to hide it. Everyone should
  stop watching these "newscasts" and buying the products that support them.
  The internet is not much better, which is sad because many newspapers are
  closing their brick and mortar operations in favor of internet news reporting.
  Big Brother is alive and well. Soon the socialist news organizations will control
  everything we hear about their boys in government.
  
  

• curmudgeon said on Apr 14, 2009....

  Alien - this begs the question: How shall conservatives get the message out if we are banned from radio and censored on the internet? We need to develop a strategy to reach people and engage with them.
  
  My hope is that Americans will soon discover that censoring dissent (which Bush never did - you liberal totalitarian hypocrites!) is NOT what they signed on for when they elected Obama and his banned of squawking poppinjays. If the Dems overreach with their agenda, my hope is that Americans will throw them out of every governor's house and most seats in Congress in 2010. Let Obama spend his last two years in office trying to pass his agenda with a hostile majority.

• ALIENated said on Apr 15, 2009....

  
  I was just thinking how Newt really ran things after Clinton's first couple 
  of years. The Republicans offered no one in 1996 (Dole is a good guy, 
  but not presidental material) is the only reason Clinton lasted another 
  four years. He was basically locked because of the Republican congress. 
  And we can only hope that will happen again. Plus, I figure BO will be 
  just fine under a Republican congress (as Clinton was) because he cares
  mostly for himself, not his party. We can only pray that the idiots who 
  blindly elected BO will come to their senses and see what they have 
  done. At the same time, we must pray that Republicans will also come to
  their senses and stop trying to out liberal the Democrats. I firmly believe
  McCain lost because he was not all that different from the usual Democrat
  candidate (people thought BO was a usual Democrat candidate as well). A
  vote for BO or McCain was pretty much a vote for a young black man or a 
  one-foot-in-the-grave white guy. Not to mention the Sarah Palin debacle. 
  How do you out fuck up picking Joe Biden? ... By picking Sarah Palin. Did 
  the Republicans not see that even the Democrat / liberal voters rejected
  a woman candidate? BO saw it, which is why he did not choose Hillary. If
  Palin runs and gets the primary votes, so be it, but you do not just offer 
  her up to be a heartbeat away from the president without the people 
  voting on it.
  
  

• javadewd said on Apr 16, 2009....

  Hey, I voted for Palin. Red-headed wild-eyed hockey milf... First woman president... And she hunts! She could not have fucked up everything as bad as BO has in less than 100 days. Man, it just grills me how narcissistic that fucker is : "If we don't talk about the Tea Parties, they obviously don't exist" certainly co-incides with the statement he made : "Even my worst critics have to admit that my first 100 days weren't half bad." I swear, the worshipers swoon over him... If he said it, it must be true, right?
