All of Us | 2/8/09 | Various News Sources and Free Republic Members

Good evening everyone, and welcome to the new week's thread.

Our new president will treat us to another exhorting, scolding speech Monday night as the Senate prepares to vote on the Depression and Mind-Boggling Deficit Act of 2009.

Meanwhile Sec Treasury Timothy Geithner, AKA The Treasury's Own Tax Cheat, will unveil yet another bank bailout Tuesday...but that could change...stay tuned.

BRAVO, BITWHACKER!

I like your forceful writing style as well as its content.

Unless we all stand up and shout our outrage and objection at this arrogant thin-skinned you-know-what's presumption that HE can do ("Yes WE CAN") as he pleases, then the blind sheep following him will succeed in bringing this nation to RUIN.

Of course I didn’t watch it nor listen, but I was under the impression that even the ‘answers’ to the questions were on teleprompter.

I’m in utter amazement... the presstitues are actually going along with this??????

And now I know what death warmed over looks like - I tuned in just as the scraggly ol’ hag (helen thomas) started to ask her question. I turned it immediately. What I saw was enough to give me nightmares.

Yes, it seemed that way to me, too. Nobama would take a question, then stumble a bit, then seem to find his place, almost like they needed time to locate and rolle a canned response. He is a terrible at extemporaneous question-and-response...;-))

I feel as though I have been teleported into the novel 1984.

Of course. They are so infatuated with his egregious arrogance, they are intoxicated with mindless reverential devotion.

I think that is exactly what was going on. I might actually watch when the first real test appears (such as when we get hit again) and they don’t have enough time to prepare and he is on his own. Sink or swim, Hussein. You wanted it bad. You are going to get it bad.

Arlen Specter on F&F this morning did not even seem to know that this sneak health care provision was in the bill!!!!!!! He gave the usual bromide of saying he'd look into it. No promise, mind you, of seeking to get rid of it.

How about that when he will be voting today on that very same bill?

(I need a voodoo doll w/his name on it. I really need a gross of them for all those gross politicians and a big one for the BIG ONE.)

Here is something from an article in FrontPage Mag by none other than Dick Morris, Heading for a Lost Decade?:

But Japan's deficit spending didn't work - all its economic stimulus fell flat. As economist Barry Elias notes, Japan raised its "gross government debt as a percentage of GDP" from 45 percent in 1989 to 170 percent today" with no real effect.

Japan lost 10 years climbing out of that hole. But we're smarter than they were, right? And our situation is 'unprecedented', right?...;-))

The same thing happened on a much smaller scale here in our local school system....A new elementary school being build w/OUT walls separating the classrooms....the plan copied on those schools in California. Big problem: California had ALREADY found that open classrooms did NOT work. But our school board decided to build such a school anyway.

I visited there and tried to listen to a 'debate' in the history 'class' where students were seated 4 to the table....and even though I bent down to within 2 feet of the students at one of the tables I could not even hear what the students were saying because of the noisy roar inside of the building.

Bottom line: Walls WERE put up in this school later.

You know, I am so aggravated by this whole thing I can hardly speak. And then to hear Glen Beck say this morning that he didn't believe anything Obama said just like he didn't beleve anything George Bush said, well!!

I am to the point that I can hardly watch news. That press conference was a joke, and why Americans like a guy who is angry, arrogant, condescending, and BORING is beyond me.

Maybe they think because he talks so much he's really smart.

Or maybe it's a generational thing, like nose rings and tatoos.

Frankly, I just don't get it. ANd no one in Congress seems to know the really bad stuff in this bill. If I can figure things out about the bill, as a 60-year old housewife, then why can't Congress do so when that is their job, and they have staff besides?

Well, enough of my ranting. I was out driving this morning and saw a car with two bumper stickers: "Obama" and "Proud parent of a sailor." I wanted to put a 3rd sticker on it whicih said "I AM A MORON."

Ah, yes, the "open concept" school design. They put that in the new high school in the township I grew up in. My dad was still working as head of maintenance in the township and said it was the stupidest thing he had ever seen...way too much noise and destraction.

Sure enough, 5 years later they put walls in.

HA! That pair of bumperstickers perfectly sums up how the libtards can keep opposing thoughts in their heads with no conflict at all...or maybe they just have 'talking points' and never think about their 'positions'...;-))

I have a feeling that people will be missing Pres. Bush very shortly, particularly as Nobama continues to act 'un-presidential'...

I heard this morning that Pres. Bush did that too. Ari Fleischer was speaking on FNF and stated this.
