You always seem to be able to read between the lines...you’re rarely wrong.
While WE have to spend all our time working, raising families, ect., THEY get to spend all their time figuring out how to extort ever more cash from US.
I wish that I had heard this speech as you did. I really do. I just couldn't get past the poor audio, irritating whistling, and robotic monotone delivery.

Fun factoid:

“In May 2008, in response to a statement by Barack Obama that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a “constant sore” the lack of a resolution to which “infects” America’s foreign policy[18], Cantor disagreed and said that what Obama said is a constant sore “isn’t a ‘constant sore’ instead it is a constant reminder of the greatness of America.”[19] In November 2008, following Obama’s election as President, Cantor stated that a “stronger U.S.-Israel relationship” remains a top priority for him and that he would be “very outspoken” if Obama “did anything to undermine those ties.”[20]

The market will tank because smart investors know not to put politics before survival. They know what all that spending will do to the national debt, and where it will lead when interest rates go up (and they WILL go up). There are rough waters ahead in the long term, and as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow they’re all seeing it.
:) I’ve learned not to trust them and to always expect them to sneak things in under the dark of night.
Psst, Soylent Green.
He was basically defending Obama and Congress and telling Sean he is “confident” they can all work together for the American people... it was very weak... seems we don’t have any men in the GOP with steel cajones.
do you have a link
Obama to Joint Session of Congress: “You commie homo lovin’ sonz-a-gunz.”
Done, but got no results. Big surprise, NOT!
Nah, I said Obama gave teamsters in Gaza billions of Tazers.
hey which american invented the car? anyone?
The GOP would have put Palin up, but they were too afraid of what he MSM would report.
BTW what was this vote about?
Voted NO on protecting whistleblowers from employer recrimination. (Mar 2007)
I feel sick. This speech reads like a how can I ruin this great country by George Soros wish list.
carbon credits
nationalize health care
national service instead of military service
every kid a college degree
blame the banks for bad lending ie exonerate the dems
blame corporations ie Capitalism sucks and is to blame for all our woes
blame lack of government regulation for Wall Street instead of Fannie Freddie and corrupt Congress (Frank, Dodd)
Stick it to the top two% of taxpayers even though the top 1% pays 40% of all taxes
blame Bush for the deficit even though you just doubled it
gut the military
gut missile defense
no mention of Iran,NK, just “extremists” and the Cold War is over
force Israel to commit suicide I mean peace
and debt,debt and more debt
By the way, why are we praising a girl old enough to get the money on her own initiative for a .42 stamp instead of asking her Principal for a handout? Oh that’s right this is the new administration. Taking handouts makes you a great American citizen.
