A Humpty Dumpty Country
Without Obama, we would have no economy and no country left -- not after the havoc Bush and his Conservative policies wreaked on America. All The King's Horses and All The King's Men couldn't put Humpty Dumpty together again. Bush bequeathed to Obama a Humpty Dumpty nation -- broken and beyond repair -- both at home and abroad. Obama is accomplishing the impossible. He is indeed putting Humpty Dumpty together again. I don't know if Obama is the True Messiah or, even, The One. But he sure is a Miracle Man.

Are you really that stupid? Do you actually believe what your writing? If you believe that without Obama this county would fall apart, then you are pathetic! Americans are hard working and can get thru almost anything. The stock market drops 50%, unemployment increases +3.5%, home values decrease slightly in most areas and you believe that the world is coming to an end. This is just about as bad of a mess that Bush inherited during his presidency, but he didnt need to convert America into socialism.
How can you blame it all on Bush. You show me where bush pushed these people into buying homes worth far more then they could afford? And how is Obama fixing our economy, by taking out billons of dollors in loans that the US can't pay back? Isn't that what some of the problem was in the first place? People buying on credit? What do you think Obama is doing? He's putting Humpty Dumpty back together on Credit, and just like the banks forclosed on homes, Humpty Dumpty's tape and glue will be taken back. So sure it all looks great now, But what happens when we have to pay back this money?
Do you even watch the news, or pick up news papers. Over $400-billion in debt has been accrued in the 57 days since President Obama took office.
Yeah he sure is a Miracle man 57 days and accrued 400billion in debt. Thats comes out to about 7 billon dollors a day.
I guess the title of this post explains alot about you CJP. You are still into reading nursery rhymes and haven't gotten around to reading the news yet.
Miracle Man? It's a miracle that so many people like yourself could fall for what he and his handlers are doing. I thought he was for change. Why is he continuing in the same flawed thinking as bush? You can't spend your way out of debt no more than you can smoke more cigarette's to quit smoking. Get a clue. Think for yourself.
The economy is improving by leaps and bounds, and Obama has barely finished his First 100 Days. Which Planet are you living on, Zar?

CJP are so madly in love with Obama that the thought hasn't crossed your mind that maybe the 400billon+ dollor band-aid won't hold the nation together for ever. Sure the economy looks better. If I took out a 400billon loan, and put it in my bank acount, that would look great. Ever time I saw statement, I would get a hard on, just like evertime you see these of the wall statisics you get one for obama. But the truth is, when all that money has to be paid back, we are worse off then we started. Then what?
Well, Matt, if anything gives you a hard on, how can I possibly be against that?
CJP don't avoid the question, What happens when we have to pay all this money back? Where will our nation be then? And why is the only part of my comment that you pick up on is about hard ons?
Dear Matt:
When our nation starts to prosper again, as it soon will, all the bailout and stimulus money will be repaid very easily -- much more easily than if we had simply allowed our economy to dry up and die, as was happening very rapidly when Obama took office. By Obama's second term, our economy will be thriving, thanks to the programs Obama is instituting now, and he will be able to run the country at a surplus every year, just as Clinton did when he was in office.
I'm not avoiding your question. Your question is too simple, and the answer is too obvious. Obama is pumping money into the system now, restoring the economy to robust health, and in the near future repaying the money will not be a problem.
All this discussion is reminiscent of what happened when the USA first entered World War II. FDR set forth production goals for planes, ships, tanks, guns, etc., which the Republicans said we could never achieve. In a very short time, however, the USA met and far exceeded FDR's production goals. Why is it that Republicans always have so little faith in America?
Why did I only pick up on the "hard ons"? Well, frankly, that was the most interesting part of your question.
CJP
I would like you to go more into detail how our nation is going to prosper again. We bailed out GM but yet GM is Mexico's single largest private employer. GM said it planned to reduce its total US employment from the current level of 96,537 people to between 65,000 and 75,000 salaried and unionized workers by 2012. So as its workers increase in Mexico, more jobs are cut here. Yet our goverment hands over money. How does this help our nation? How do you see that this will help our nation prosper?
And further more, how does the prososed increase of taxes on High fructose corn syrup help this nation prosper. If the tax is passed, more sugar would be imported. Soda and other sweet foods, would switch back to sugar. Causing not only the workers who process HFCS to lose jobs, but also cause US farmers to sell less? In the state our economy is in is it really smart to rase taxes on US made products, healthy or not?
CJP: I am sorry but there are a few problems with your last statement. First is you said there was a surplus under Bill Clinton, which is something I have already told you is a lie. Bill Clinton borrowed more money from SS to make it look like he had a surplus. If you look at the federal revenue minus SS to the spending, he ran a deficit budget.
Second, Obama will never have a surplus budget when he is spending $3.6 trillion dollars a year! That is $800 billion dollars more than Bushs last DEFICIT budget. So how is Obama going to run a surplus when Bush couldnt do it when he spent $800 billion less. Obama would have to increase taxes thru the roof and double are GDP. I am sorry but a $13 trillion GDP is impossible to double in one presidency. Did you know that all tax dollars are removed from the economy? What would happen if Obama left it there in the first place?
The main thing Obama is trying to do is bail out the banks so they can start lending again and put people back to work to stop this current torrent of job layoffs.
You can't isolate one item and focus on it, since Obama's is a broad-based, wide-ranging approach.
Most American multi-national companies, whether GM or otherwise, provide employment in Mexico and other foreign countries where they have plants. But GM, Ford, etc. are also huge employers in Michigan and other states, and many related industries, companies and workers depend upon the survival of the American auto industry.
For GM to have 75,000 US employees by 2012 is better than its having none, if the company goes bankrupt. If Obama does nothing, then by 2012 that figure could be none, and there would also be huge job losses in related and dependent industries.
