So, what do we, as a nation, do about Obama?

Where are these new plants?
Where's the equipment?
Where are the houses?
Where are the new home owners?
WHERE ARE THE JOBS?!?

As Long As The OBlabby Gravy Train is still running, they wait for The Moola to be Handed Out.

Once Election Night sees OBlabby Inc. defeated, they will stop being Dogs Looking For Hand-Outs and become Wolves On The Prowl.

And they will start "Building That" will this Large Cache Of Dough everyone says they have.

Once R & R is Leading The Way, ALL WILL KNOW it is Time To Build It with Your Own Minds, Hands, and Money, 'cause The Gravy Train Is Derailed. Daddy Government will Part The Sea and The Chariots Of Industry will be Kicking Up The Dust to The New America. YeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeHawwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Capiche? Good.

Sarge,

The new plants are the Spring Hill expansion for GM and the Nissan add-on here in Murphreesboro Tennessee.-1200 new jobs en toto. Huge new Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga TN thousands of jobs there too. Get the government out of the way and there would be even more.

New homes are a-building all over Middle TN

WM, with income stats like :The median income for a household in the city was $39,705, and the median income for a family was $52,654. Males had a median income of $36,078 versus $26,531 for females. The per capita income for the city was $20,219.

You have much to crow about!

So, what do we, as a nation, do about Obama?

The question and how it is worded supposes that Obama is a problem to be dealt with, which is insulting.

Ultimately what kind of government we have, economic system we use, the programs we do or don't pay for, and how large or small or military is don't matter. Sure it may matter today or in a few years but in the scale of history most of what we do has very little effect beyond even the length of our lives. Never mind in a few hundred years. Can you tell me what the tax rate was in 1912? does it really have any bearing what so ever on your life? In 75 years will anyone remember anything about our current our current policies?

However there is one subject that is commonly addressed that will effect us and every generation that follows, The Environment.

The Republican Party and its denial of what has long been established Scientific fact give me no choice.
Global Climate change is real, it is the only issue of real long term importance. Short of thermo nuclear war it is the only issue that will effect my grandchildrens grandchildren.

It informs my vote. As long as the republican party embraces the denial of science I will never vote for them.

Wm, remember I don't work, I am one of those retired parasites. I live an hour west, 15 miles from Seattle.

So, what do we, as a nation, do about Obama?

We continue to bow in his presence, we continue to say "YES WE CAN!", we continue to feel it dribbling down our legs when he speaks, and we give the government as much as they ask for because with out them, we'd be nothing.

No, really: Govt warns of 'zombie apocalypse'

They just not saying there's a growing number of zombies at the IRS.

I know it is difficult to watch a President attempt to do what he says, be supportive of the working class, and try to make things better being stifled by
a congress(regress). And we are supposed to be upset about.. the President??
Who got elected without the help of Diebold?

I will continue to support his leadership despite the doom and gloom being PREACHED by the teapublicans.

... being stifled by a congress(regress). And we are supposed to be upset about.. the President?? ...

I dont like either one of the Bozo's running. One of them justs wants to kiss the the religous an or richmans butt, And on the other a guy who promises us change.

I havent seen a sorry ass bunch of canidates since Johnson and Goldwater and to be fair Gore and Bush.

What ever happend to the premise of getting the best and brightest to run for office. Seems we get the stupid and stupidest. Well we get what we vote for.

I will vote, But for who I have no idea. Seems like we are going to get it shoved up our posterier no matter who wins.

The economy was tanked by Bush. And every time Obama tried to get the economy rolling again, the Teapublicans have screamed NONONONONO.

Try to compromise? NO. Try to work together? No. Try to get some relief to the middle classes? NO.

Fortunately at least we got a health care bill done. He has proposed legislation, much of which passed in the senate with bipartisan support, but the congressional cat-herders made sure nothing got through.

Dubya managed to get through by lies, deceit and corruption almost anything he wanted. Anyone that got in his way was branded as unamerican for not supporting the president. These same people who try to paint us as unamerican for SUPPORTING the president.

Hypocrites, Swindlers, Theives. Your Teapublican dream.

Religious right wing wacko's.....EVEN ON THE SETI FORUM.

You would think a belief in the possibility of extra-terrestrial life and science couldn't coexist in the same mind as religious anti-science bigotry.

Its very strange.

Gary, a lot of truth in your talking points. A couple of talking points I also like are 2 unfunded wars for the short term. and for the long term, the fact, IMO is the restructuring of the economy starting with the sainted Ronald Reagan. The economies tanking started a long time ago with both political parties very culpable but I feel the Republicans took control of the direction. Few of the people had a good memory of the "great depression" and no longer saw the need for adult supervision, so they choose short term gain instead of long term stability. It's a F...ing mess and the question is does the country have the fortitude for shared sacrifice or do we explore new territories?
