Links to various articles are in the threads. Then leave the debt to our great grands to pay. I thought SS was the third rail of politics and the GOP was going to cut and gut it so Granny had to eat dog food...WELL it's the DEMONRATS that are doing the cut and gutting of SS and Medicare/Tricare for Life the retired Militarys secondary health ins, so I guess they want Granny to eat dog food. BTW a lot of those 10,000 laid off Sam's Club workers will be old people on SS supplementing their incomes.
YES! We DO need BOLD action on the part of the Federal Government to help us get through this hard economic time! Most definitely - I totally agree on that one point!
Here is the BOLD action the government needs to take:
GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY!!!!
“”an economic situation that is dire” requires immediate and bold action”
Let’s say the government could actually do something to stimulate the economy. If it requires immediate and bold action, what has Barry been doing for the last 12 months (besides making things much worse)?
Well if he would go after that $500,000 billion he says there is in Medicare/Medicaid waste (fraud) he wanted to use for the Obamacare..................I know it is a rational thinking mans (woman’s) answer which is why he will never do.

I hope the date of this article lessens the chances of this happening. It is over a year old but who knows with this administration. It is so hard for me to believe anything that comes out of his mouth and I find it almost impossible (no, remove the ‘almost’ and make that impossible) to watch him on TV or listen to him on radio. I won’t watch the SOTU address Wednesday night but rather I will watch the commentators after the address has been completed. I don’t get quite as annoyed!!!
According to the report on this site he is going to cut all of them.
Who knows, sooner or later, the Democrats will start going after the veterinarians who treat the family dog:
(After all, the eco-freaks already want to kill off family pets because of their carbon paw-prints).
Whew, what a relief, only $775B. Glad he's not taking advice from those profligate economists.
Chicago-style politics. Seniors are the only demo group that didnt vote for him.
Go ahead, O, cut medicare.
The dims will all lose in 2010 and you will be thrown out of the White House in 2012, too.
We dare you!
in the article it says:
“We’re going to have to jump-start this economy,” Obama said. “That’s going to cost some money.”
What the hell was his stimulus supposed to be that he rammed up our butts?
This man has to go, he is dangerous and everyone should know it by now.
Impeach / remove these people immediately
Starting with Pelosi, call for a vote of no confidence in her, Then Reid, then Obama.
