Da10th: I could care less if their are anti-Obama threads. It's just as sickening to see the hundreds of pro-Obama threads (when there is room in the others for them to be consolidated ). So don't act like I'm picking on those that are anti-Obama. Just get's sickening to no end to see a dozen of each at any given time.
Wouldn't be so bad, but both Pro & Anti-Obama threads spout the same rhetoric and attract the same groups of people on both sides of the issue spouting the same crap over & over.


well there are dozens if not more of other non political forums on CS ...just stay away from anything political

Oh the classic "if you don't like what we say, dont read it" argument.

Look buddy, I'm just saying, instead of people trying to "get attention" it would make more sense to put what they had to say in a thread that contains the same message. It isn't rocket science.roll eyes doh

sigh I usually don't get involved in these threads because I never know exactly what the OP's are trying to achieve. Most ot the statements are already biased towards one way of thinking or the other. From what little I read I usually see plenty of bickering back and forth but very little in the way of constructive solutions. SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS IS WHAT IS NEEDED NOT BICKERING. The threads are more like 'I know more than you' competitions. It does not matter who you put in the big seat whether Dem or Rep there are bound to be people who they are going to piss off - know why? Because you've elected 'human' not a god. Anybody that expects to take up the job of President and does not expect some people to be unhappy is in the wrong job. YOU CANNOT PLEASE EVERYBODY! and if you try to you are doomed to fail. Anyway next time an election comes along check in with God's secretary and see if he's availble to be President but you already know that more than likely even he's gonna piss somebody off.drinking laugh

vnctvega: We can't leave out the banking queen.. Barnie (Mr president you don't yell fire in a burning building) Frank who repeatedly claimed that Freddie and Fannie were still very sound and were not in trouble. They ignored 17 warnings from the Bush admin that something needed to be done before it collapsed. I read somewhere that his boyfriend was the head of Freddie Mack.

True....cheers Though bankers are greedy and manipulative, they are not dumb when it really comes down to business. They do dumb things because of whom they are influenced by... It is congress's fault for all of what is going on now.. mostly the dems, and Barney poo being at the top of that list, but there were also reps. that together put pressure on banks and lending institutions to make all those bad loans, it all started toward the end of the Clinton years. and the powers that be, never changed any of those practices, because the stock market benefited from a (false sense ) of a striving economy. There is blame to go around and some lies within are culture, of wanting and expecting everything....."right now" and not using common sense when making decisions.....

Just an example of how the wisdom "foolishness of the world is....

Good credit envolves being in debt, but making payments on time... BUT YOU ARE IN DEBT!!

Bad credit is still consider pretty good, just you'll pay alot higher interest rate and penalties on the things that you are in debt for... But YOU ARE IN DEBT!!!!

NO Credit is horrible.........????? why ??
anwser. because you are not in debt, and the government has less avenues to track you by.....

NOTHING HAS TO DO WITH GOOD PEOPLE OR BAD PEOPLE< THOSE WHO PAY< AND THOSE WHO DO NOT.....

IT ALL HAS TO DO WITH THE GOVERNMENT HAVING SOMETHING OVER YOUR HEAD, that they can CONTROL YOU BY... JMO..

Hmm read back and oddly nowhere did I even use a word close to hate. But then again you read what you wanna read. Carry on, you are dismissed.

DA10th,

Ever think the main reason Obama got elected in the first place is people weren't paying attention in DETAIL to what Obama was really about?? Obama was merely a walking cliche ("YES WE CAN!" and "CHANGE!" among a few), who has flip-flopped on so many of his bogus campaign promises already. By the way, does anyone with an IQ above above a potato chip still believe in 95% of Americans will receive a tax break?? (For one, it was welfare--never a tax break; two, when Obama TRIPLES the nat'l debt, those 95%ers will be paying through the nose.)

The problem isn't trying to draw attention to me, it's trying to make people examine what Obama is doing. (By the way, I cited the NON-PARTISAN CBO to show how ineffective Obama's "stimulus" will very likely be, long term).

In response to: Obama entered office and decided to spend unprecedented TRILLIONS (Remember when $1 billion seemed like a lot of money?) in hopes of Big Brother spending its way out of a severe recession. As has been the case 100% of the time prior, no country in the history of man has ever spent its way out of recession or depression. Nada. (By the way, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office has stated that Obama's multi trillion dollar "stimulus" plan will have little long-term economic benefit.)


Does anyone here understand how the economy even works? I think that if you did you would not be blaming Obama for the economic problems.
