He just sold free America down the river tonight. Too bad every American didn’t listen to this speech, because it scared the hell out of me, and listening to how solemn all the pundits are it may be starting to hit home.

Harry Reid is getting revenge for all those years when he had adhesive tape holding his glasses togetehr, and that pocket protector overflowing with mechanical pencils, as he ran the projector, while everyone else was making out during the movie.

CBS has some interesting talking points..one guy pointing out he is preparing the public girding themselves for some big money needed soon...Bob Schiefer isn’t gushing all over him like you would think.

Guess he read Drudge:

"House Democrats unveiled a $410 billion spending bill on Monday to keep the government running through the end of the fiscal year, setting up the second political struggle over federal funds in less than a month with Republicans.

The measure includes thousands of earmarks, the pet projects favored by lawmakers but often criticized by the public in opinion polls. There was no official total of the bill's earmarks, which accounted for at least $3.8 billion.The legislation, which includes an increase of roughly 8 percent over spending in the last fiscal year, is expected to clear the House later in the week.

Since many of us are committed to NOT watching this, can someone tell me if the Republican side of the isle is expressing displeasure by SITTING tonight?? Please say YES!!! Please is anyone booing?

No booing, but I did see a few times where republicans were all sitting and RATS were standing and slobbering etc....and I am sure with tingles running down their legs...

Harry Reid looks like a puppy dog waiting for the next command.

Fox is unwatchable. They need 24 hours to wash off the Obama splatter.

Shorting, is selling now and buying later, instead of buying first and selling later. So, when shorting you are betting that the price will go down, so that you sell high now with an obligation to buy later, hopefully at a lower price. If the price goes up, you buy at the higher price and lose money.

“After this photo op, she'll be just another used up prop.”

Yep, just like the fake who was living in her car and needed a home. Was really an ex-real estate investor who had transferred all of her assets to her kids so she could qualify for Medicaid/Welfare/Etc.

Poor Obamarosa...

*screaming laughing* Oh man that's AWESOME. That's what I'm going to call her from now on. Thanks a million!

[Mr. Mojo]

Were those all Democrats asking for his autograph?

That's what it looked like to me. I'm surprised no one fainted.

After Obama’s speech I have decided where to invest my extra money for at least the next 4 years.....Look for Pepto Bismol stock to go UP!!! LOL

[Windcatcher]

We are the ones who work. We can take more out of our spending than hordes of slacker Obamabots.
