"With the cooperation of our Republican colleagues, we intend to send a plan to the White House as soon as possible following President-elect Obama's inauguration," Reid said.

Stuff it with the cooperation. The Dems control Congress, they don't need our cooperation. They only want us to share ownership of this mess. The Republicans should have none of it. Don't obstruct these proposals, but don't support them either.

Maybe they should just vote PRESENT.

The elections are over so there's no incentive for any Republican in this current congress to pass a single thing. Let Obama take the fall when it passes but fails to improve the economy.

Obama: "What's yours is mine and what is mine is mine."

Evil.

The happy/hope talk is gone. He needs a crisis in order to scare people into giving up their treasures and liberties.

Obama’s campaign was to repeat hope..hope...hope...

But Rahm’s plan as he recently stated is to milk every “crisis” that he can warp to his agenda.

We’re going to see health crises, gun crises, internet crises, talk radio crises...

His first order of business should be the full investigation, prosecution and dissolution of ACORN, which in large part contributed to this financial mess.

Once the details start coming out about what 0bama REALLY wants, the markets will resume their slide. What is it now? Trillions of dollars in spending and “stimulus” packages without the means to pay for any of it.

Barring swift action, "most experts now believe that we could lose millions of jobs next year," he said...

Huh-huh....if the Big-O is going to rely on "experts" his whole term then he's in for some embarrassing disappointments.

Any bets on how long it takes the greenhorn to crack under pressure?

Amazing, this guy wins the presidency with no accomplishments. no valid birth certificate, a roster of very shady friends and now he turns up empty on any idea how to solve the economic problem. Surprise! Surprise!

RE “talk radio crises...”

We need more diversity on talk radio, but NOT TV or cable.

You should first remember that it is Americans that will be hurt and take a fall if his plan fails. I for one wish him to get quick results, as unlikely as that may be.

Obama's principal theme was urgency. "We do not have a minute to waste," he said

Sounds suspiciously like Henry Paulson and every other con-game hustler in the history of the world. "Urgency" is a state of stress in the mind of the individual disposing him to poor judgment and impulsive action. When people feel urgency they tend to be easily led. Unless your house is literally on fire, urgency is not an attribute of the external world--but it feels like it's real. The psychopathic criminal element, including Obama, Immanuel, and company, knows this and uses it to their advantage.

If only the Republicans let Obama and the democrats have enough rope to hang themselves.

They need to not cooperate at all.

Obama wants action right when the new congress starts on Jan 6th, but Reid wants to wait until The One is anointed on Jan 20.

Obama wants it before his incarceration so he can blame the results on Bush.

And when it fails, Reid and his lying cheating stealing cohorts can blame it on Obama.

The R's need to sit this one out and let the Dems do their agenda.

Since 52% of Americans voted this idiot in office, we all deserve to take a fall. If it's not a fall that completely destroys us then it should be a fall that teaches us.

Second

First he needs to have his justice dept file charges against Barney Frank and all the other democrats that took bribes and fought tooth and nail to keep this economic crisis brewing for their own enrichment.

Then ACORN.

LOL, we're dreamin' ain't we?
