Obama said “Everybody’s going to have to have some skin in the game.”

Obama wants to give me skin LOL
Man someone has to break the news to Peggy, ya know, the woman at Obama’s rally who was so excited to get free food, mortgage, gas, and a free car, she is gonna be devastated. Yep Peggy, looks like you are gonna have to get off your lazy ass and get a job

He will be a failure, a black mark on American history.

Nice double entendre.

The real “burden” will be when the idiots who voted for him discover that he’s ... CLUELESS.

They're too clueless to figure anything out!

I think we ought to be concerned that white guilt will re-elect him in 2012, no matter what happens, the way white guilt gives standing ovations to very old black musicians who can barely stand up and play.

Don’t worry, they won’t have to figure anything out, the media will be there to tell them that Obama is a genius and that it is all Bush’s fault and like the sheep that they are, will all go baaa baaa baaa back to the polls to re-elect the fraud

Yep, heavy lift for us as his supporters get their pie. Socialism has offically become the mode of government in this country.

I try not to listen to Obama but I find it harder and harder to get away from him ...and his teleprompter. The funniest thing I've heard him called is "Teleprompter Jesus."

He is on TV daily telling us how bad off we are and how it's going to be worse before it gets better. Between him and the MSM if you don't think you are homeless now---wait 'til tomorrow.

We have not had a job loss where I live and everybody talks about how bad it is. I's all mental...from constantly being told how bad things are.

First the good news, everything Obama promised was a lie. Now the bad news....... we’ll get to that in the future.

perhaps no better time than now to have started reading “Atlas Shrugged”.

[President-elect Obama is warning that his campaign promises will take longer than he expected to carry out]

So, how can it take longer than infinity to carry out his plans?

I think this is some kind of trick Zen question.

In an interview on ABC’s “This Week,” President-elect Obama is warning that his campaign promises will take longer than he expected to carry out, and that Americans will face MORE of a BURDEN than MANY HAVE REALIZED.

“I’m focused on a pretty heavy lift, which is making sure we get that reinvestment and recovery package in place,” Obama said.

<<What do you suppose that means?!

Barry didn’t fool an entire nation, just enough fools to get elected.

He’s asking already for a second term. I can imagine his slogans for 2012... “Hope and Change... This time for real!”

Actually, that should be the Republicans' slogan for 2012.
