"I thought it outrageous that anybody has to step in a bail out a bunch of whiny and self absorbed 29 year olds driving Maseratis," he said.

There. Fixed it.

Yes, he is right, about the inflation at least. People on fixed incomes will be hard hit by super inflation. not to worry though, the government can just print more money.

Zimbabwe, U.S.A. All we need to complete it is a dictator for life - barak messiah.

it’s sad. we don’t have a pro-business conservative that is running for president. the person we have should find a picture of his father-in-law and think of the principles he used to start his beer empire.

It’s ironic: the libs believe in darwinism. But they don’t like seeing it in practice.

I’ve always thought that’s what Obama would do for 8 years. Attack Attack Attack GWB and blame EVERYTHING on GWB.

This is why GWB ticks me off when he let them get away with their smears.

No person is on fixed incomes. They choose to be. That is their choice.

Anyone who has seen the government devalue a high school degree. Has seen even the devaluation of the word ‘conservative’ such that the Bushs or Romney call themselves conservative. Anyone that has seen the moral devaluation that a fat pig sodomised like Barney Frank can be the head of government finance.

Anyone that has seen a 30 billion dollar a year intel bureaucracy that watched Al Queada for a decade and failed and NO ONE WAS FIRED.

Anyone that has watched male devaluation that only one plane in which the males attacked a bunch of little guys with box-cutters.

Please.

People deserve to be eating cat food.

These governments, lousy to the core (and that is an insult to hardworking, blood sucking lice) and anyone that I should care about, depends upon them?

You can not be pro business and big government. Business is liberty, freedom to act in the economic sphere as you like, or not. To succeed or fail, or not.

No liberty, no business.

As liberty decreases, what you think of as business is more of an government allowed racket.

If you are dependent upon government permission, stamps, licenses, permits, regulators.........you are not in a free enterprise system.

When the largest financial institutions are ORDERED to give their money, in the form of loans, to people that will not pay back,,,,ordered by the government......do you think little old YOU are free?

This nation is like a cattle care of Jews on the way to the death camps. We’re hoping the other guy will get it, not us, and we’ll get to keep our trinkets, all the while we are prisoners and and won’t do anything about it.

/rant off

I can't agree. The left can make hay out of a thing pretty easily but they CANNOT lead us anywhere good. It only took Carter 4 years to get us deeper into hell than we'd ever been before. Obama isn't Carter and it isn't 1977 anymore. If the left gets in this time they will try to take out talk radio and the Internet and they will use authority to obviate their opponents.

A president Obama won't finish his first term. Before two years into his term this nation will be firing live rounds at one another.

An Obama presidency will fail spectacularly

Don’t blame the greedy for being greedy. It’s what they are, plain as day.

Blame the government for taking money/wealth from one citizen and giving it to another. From one generation, as of yet unborn, and giving to the living.

It’s a form of financial pedophilia, debt child rape.
I’m not sure, anywhere in the Old Testament, Greek or Roman history, that I have ever read of any people ever selling their children into slavery.

Agreed.Unfortunately, the politicians have stolen our monies and already destroyed America’s future economy with the 1 trillion dollar bailout of corrupt banks. This may be the largest transfer of American assets to forign nations ever engineered by the corrupt politicians of Washington DC.
Think about it, how does one get out of debt by adding to the debt. Answer, they don’t!
We have been robbed by the elitist fool politicians of America and you know it will get worse for American taxpayers.

And, what the democrats would like us to believe is that Business is evil, greedy. Truth be told “Business” is the people at work. It is us. Let’s stop letting the marxists get away with ripping our society apart.

Democrats and republicans can not handle fiscal conservatives who believe that one should not spend more than they take in. The credit card mentality has destroyed our economy and will get worse.

Amen to that. Stupid is as stupid does and America is run by stupid people.

WRONG. The way to solve the problem is to abolish the federal income tax now, replace it with a national sales tax, and drastically cut government spending. A long list of federal programs and some federal departments should be eliminated.
