It's a good read. Same story. It starts off blaming Bush, spends a bunch of money we don't have, and then promises to fix health care, end unemployment, cure cancer.........well you know how it ends. They win, America loses

One more thing...I thought we might have a rally on Wall St. today, but something happened to change that. Any ideas?

If he can do even some of those, would it still be a failure???

Ask your 4 year old. They are the ones that will pay the piper if it does not. It's a hell of a gamble if you ask me.

No, how about changing some policy. Do the things this country needs to keep it profitable for companies to stay here. Give them a reason for developing new products. Incentive for doing well. It always works, always. Reward those who do nothing and soon everyone will do nothing.


I would rather they do nothing then what they are doing. They are f@#$ing every one of us.

Already is a rotting turd.Stimulus...no.An entire generation(including your child) paying more than half their earnings back to the government...a very big yes.

3 trillion in debt by 2012 brings us way beyond a rotting turd,it pretty much brings the American way of life to a very bitter end.But then again nothing lasts forever...the Roman Empire and the Soviet Union come to my mind.

Obama and his policies are the nail in the coffin that was once the great experiment known as The United States of America.We might live on in name but the name is all we'll have left.

As Obama once stated:
"And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion."

I for one ain't clinging but I damn well am keeping a firm hold(on my guns anyway!).

Good night my fellow and and soon to be former Americans.

I didn't say it wasn't a gamble, but it is beyond pessimistic to say that we will fail, and not do any of those things!

If this bill in any way can fix even one of the three things mentioned above, it won't be a success........it will be a miracle.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
