Alfalfa: Thank God for that vicious mob also known as my 70 year old mom and dad in lakeland florida. It is so amazing this dem running against spector saying he cares about his constituency when he is voting against their wishes..he says..it is not a democracy but a representative govt and he knows better than them..what a CROCK
Include my mother in the vicious mob.
I was at the post office last week waiting in a line of 7 or 8 people. A guy had just finished at the counter and was not happy. He said "they wonder why they're losing $2 billion dollars a year, they should be privatized". I suggested he write to Obama, he's giving everyone one what they want. At that moment, the entire line almost rioted. They all had something to say about Obama and none of it good.
The woman in front of me said she was 78 years old and was dropping off her HMO check. She called her Congressmen and discussed Obama's plans with them. They came to the conclusion that the gutting of Medicare that's part of the plan would end up driving her HMO premiums up so high, she would have to drop her plan and take his, and her current plan was far superior to Obamacare.
This "vicious mob" are the ones to talk to if you want the facts. They have to be informed, their lives depend on it.
rubyruby: 1. Not telling u how to live your life, just sharing an opinion on what i observe (note: i dont say right or wrong, just what i see and observe ie: perception) and to point out my perspective and double standards. If in any of my posts, u can find where i have 'told' u how to live, then please point it out. (And once the US stops buying into other countries business, i will stop posting in regards to the US)
2. Am i not allowed an opinion because i dont live there?
3. My partner currently lives in the US.
4. I believe the word is moot, not mute.
Hey Ruby Ruby..your hella cool...thanks for your input I value your opinion
lookin4ubabe: I usually just sit back and watch, but this time I couldn't help myself! But I am so outta here same nonsense over and over!!! I enjoyed most of the conversation....but it got ugly in the end, personal attacks instead of issues and I walked right into it!! Thanks for you support!
reconmarine: Let's see...improper use of government funds. Funding special interest groups such as ACORN with U.S. taxpayers dollars. Using tax dollars to push his healthcare reform. Hiring numerous unelected advisers bypassing the constitution and congress answering only to him and not the American people. Research some of his advisers. They are radicals and self proclaimed communists and now they're running our country. You are watching the downfall of this country and supporting it. Buy a vowel and get a clue. Absolutely amazing!
Thank you, Hasn't the Acorn connection and his ites to radicals already been investigated over and over during the campaign ? And, regarding healthcare campaign money and the other accusations ........wouldn't you think congress would shut him down if he was doing something illegal ? I am watching America attempting to get back up on it's feet after the last regime ruined everything some of us worked very hard for all out lives !

Hmmmm thats not really specific...that's opinion Most of those points I refuted early with back up facts! Get your facts straight!
Ahhh... This is a personal letter. I cannot endorse it cause of to many personal feelings in it.
1. I have not had it with the Obama administration cause they haven't gone to far yet that it starts to affect me personally. Am looking forward to seeing if that universal health care is gonna work or not though.
2. We did not willingly enter WWI and WWII, if we did they would not have started in the first place. We would have done a preemptive strike like we did in Iraq.
3. I believe that Obama was refering to recent events and not historical events. Makes no sense that Obama would refer to the Marshall plan as an arrogant American policy since it wasn't.
4. The Declaration and Constitution make mention of God in a universal way. USA extablished freedom of religion not freedom of Christianity only.
5. USA is not the only country that was established on Judeo-Christian principles. Europe has always been since the time of the beginning of the Catholic Church in the 3rd Century AD.
6. Bowing to a Suadi Prince is showing respect. No problem there.
7. Obama has nothing to do with the trillion dollar bailouts so I doubt he is gonna get his hands dirty messing with it.
8. Even if Obama wasn't in office, no matter who was, Congress is gonna get their bonuses.
9. USA was detroyed a long time ago, it just beginning to catch up with up.
Since I haven't read what got you fuming about Obama, I may not have gotten it right anyways. Just that Obama is gonna do what Obama does, and only if we American Citizen benefit while he's in office, he'll get a second term.

Be careful, Ivanski ran when confronted with the facts earlier. He's another one long on opinions, short on facts.
I put this post up to ask the question about Obama. My verdict isn't in yet as far as if he's a great president or not. I did vote for him and believe in a lot of his ideals. However, they are ideals and not facts yet. I believe his intentions are good but wonder if he can really fathom what the average American experiences. I mostly wanted to post this letter to jump start conversation about what our country needs and ideas of how to achieve those goals. All change begins with conversation and awareness, and hopefully positive change will follow. Thanks for all the feed back. You can never have enough outsider opinions, especially in politics.

Facts? What in the world are you talking about? You couldn't even quote one line of the constitution without looking it up on the internet! You and your buddy Ivan truly are a bit clueless. You truly expect the Democrats to investigate Acorn and Obama's wrong doing with their buddy Holder running the show??? What a joke! That will be done when the Republicans take control of congress in 2010.
lights: Yeah, I was with you last night! Remember?!
How could you forget about me so soon???
I am crunched.
Really.
(You might consider why you are so outnumbered you know?)
Don't follow the old "Don't confuse me with facts; my mind is MADE UP! path.
she is not really outnumbered...a 'silent' majority is just bored and tired of watching you fellas complaining. I mean so far, you have only complained about one person. And when you complain so much, it just gets boring at one point or another. but i do admire you guys passion for complaining..keep it up.

Are you serious? Of course the whole thing was whitewashed..don't believe it...tell me what Cindy Sheehan has been up to. Remember when she was on 24/7 for doing it to Bush??
Seriously man...ugh..your faith in congress is staggeringly naive...I don't mean that as an insult....you just don't understand how crooked and self serving these people are. Here is the scary thing...a huge majority HATE the Congress..yet when asked about their own congressman..they are ok...oh wait..except for Nevada

Investigated by Holder? Now the CIA...they need to be investigated for keeping us safe. Should be a law against that. America can't get back on her feet when Obama is doing everything in his power to bring her to her knees.
