So I’m not sure if seeing these few points of light in the darkness that is the Democrat Party is a good thing or not .
It’s either a good thing because some are waking up or good because of my enjoyment of watching them begin to eat their own…..do you guys miss GW? – LOL!
It sure looks like some rat’s are starting to put on life jackets…..and how long has Barry been the POTUS?? LOL!

This boy elected king has done very little other than prove how much a liar he is!

1. Americans will have five days to read and study legislation before signs it. Liar!
2. No lobbiest in his administration. Liar!
3. American’s will have to stop setting their thermostats on 72 deg to stop global warming. He’s got the White House the same temperature as a sauna because he’s “Hawaiian born”. Liar!
4. He sent a jet plane to get a congressman back to Washington in time to vote for the Stimulus Package, yet he’s going to make us a “green nation”? Liar!

The only Stimulus Package this bum cares about lies between his belly button and his Tom Daschel Hole!

Obama and every one else in the federal government, are taking orders from the Money Power (mainly big banks and the likes of Goldman Sachs). Since he wants to stay in the political game for a long time, he does his best to say nothing specific and position others to take the blame. For example, Geither, the boy treasurer, will take the blame for the ongoing credit crisis, and people like Pelosi and Reid will take the blame for the so-called “Stimulus Package”. Obama knows that if he is to avoid looking foolish like his predecessor in office, someone else has to take the blame when things inevitably go wrong (although to the benefit of the Money Power).

Eagle Eye   February 15th, 2009 - 2:17 pm

Its easy to say a president made mistakes or looked foolish, but if you had the same information he got, it might make you look foolish. Bush did not try to change the country from what it was made of, Constitutional or heritage, but Obama wants to.

Gus   February 15th, 2009 - 2:22 pm

Paglia is right in this matter in the first half of this audio.

Now, the final tally for this massive piece of pork is said to be around 2.7 trillion dollars. Also contained in this bill are a slew of mandates including a reversal of welfare reforms and a provision to unemployment rules allowing states to grant unemployment payments for individuals who have quit in order to take care of “ailing” relatives, pregnancy, restraining orders, etc. This will be subejected to massive fraud by a sector of the population known for “working the system”. It will also place a massive burden on large businesses and state UI funds.

That’s just the tip of the ice berg that’s about to hit the United States like the Titanic. This legislation will have near zero job growth and signal the return of the welfare state.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   February 15th, 2009 - 2:33 pm

You go get em…Camille. Finally a voice of reason from the far side!

They are drunk…the Speaker of the failed Democratic House – Marie Antoinette Pelosi and the Nation of Islam’s Messiah are taking us down the road to destruction!

Keep speaking up and speaking out…at this point in time…that’s all we have…just keep hammering it in….we are living in very dangerous times and the Democrats (minus 7) and (3) Republicans have started us down the slippery slope of financial chaos!

GOD BLESS AMERICA THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE…MAY OUR GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS OUR GREAT NATION AS WE ASK HIS FORGIVENESS FOR WHAT WE HAVE DONE TO OUR GREAT NATION!

LK   February 15th, 2009 - 2:41 pm

Everyone should inundate Susan Collins’, Arlen Specter’s and Olympia Snow’s offices with sympathy cards bemoaning the loss of their collective consciences and ethics for selling out to the Democrats for whatever payoff they received to vote for the stimulus! Traitors all!

Gus   February 15th, 2009 - 2:55 pm

Correction. The final tally would by 3.27 trillion dollars if 20 of the more popular Federal programs run 10 years.

As you know, once a Federal program is created it rarely if ever is removed.

$3,270,000,000,000

NoWAR   February 15th, 2009 - 2:59 pm

We have all of these problems because Bush went to war over so called “terrorism”. There is no such thing, just study Bill Clinton. These are police matters. And, as John Kerry wisely said, we will need to get use to periodic attacks from people that are mad at us for being so selfish. It is time to change and provide for our own people….. free health care and college education, as Obama promised us.

Obama will make everything ok again. The rich will have to give up some of their lifestyle, but all the better.

Next step will be to start dismantling our military. There is huge money to be gained in doing that.

Dolts   February 15th, 2009 - 3:08 pm

Dimantling our military?

That is so utterly moronic I don’t even know where to begin. Favor isolation, that’s fine… but dismantling the military?

Put down the pipe.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   February 15th, 2009 - 3:14 pm

Dear NoWar…you are dilusional and don’t live in reality!

The terrorists are in the White House…they are taking our country down the road to destruction from within…just like they wanted…beginnning with our economy!

The next thing will be the taking away of guns from the public…a right provided by the Constitution to bear arms.

Then they will take away our freedom of speech so that there is no opposition so that you will hear only “their” voice…a right provided by the Constitution!

It all starts after 3 weeks…into this administration…there is an agenda and it is being followed…Chicago Politics style!

WAKE UP…NOWAR…THERE IS ONLY WAR WHEN THERE ARE THOSE WHO WISH TO TAKE AWAY THE FREEDOMS OF OTHERS…AND THOSE WHO ARE FREE NEED TO PROTECT THEIR FREEDOM.

She’s so incredibly schrei. If she lived next door I’d move.

Whew! What a nutcase she is.

DanielTUSA   February 15th, 2009 - 5:44 pm

Wow, Camille is actually right! It is funny how TODAY she will trash Clinton for the EXACT same thing the conservatives were bashing him for when he was in office. Unfortunately when he was in office she was kissing his butt.

Nowar, he was elected, he didn’t win a game. He holds a responsibility like no other, so I hope
he will choose his words and policies more carefully before he loses this battle with the economy.

Rahm Emanuel won you idiot. Brackstarr is just a figurehead; The Man is RAHM EMANUEL!

“Votes matter.”

You’re clueless. McCain threw the election of 2008 just as obviously as Kerry did in 2004.

For the sake of sweet truth, I’ll give you this though: The last man was to actually FIGHT an election in this country was your boy, Algore. I say this as someone who was never a fan of his and does not believe in the Global Warmthing. Still giving the devil his due, Algore didn’t take a dive when the masters told him to….

Azul Del Fuego   February 15th, 2009 - 8:42 pm

I don’t know if I believe her. She says the right words, but……
If I recall, she has a great respect for Nancy Pelosi and mentions it often in her columns. Nancy Pelosi wrote this bill. This isn’t BHO’s bill, it’s Pelosi’s.
So if she never mentions Pelosi in her diatribe, I’ll assume she’s either misinformed (doubtful – Paglia is a smart shrewd person) or she’s being manipulative somehow.

NoWar   February 15th, 2009 - 8:42 pm

Obama is smart and I trust what he says and does. He will protect us and provide provisions. He will restore America to allow other countries to like us again. He will bring peace to the world and will save the planet from global warming. It will cost us all a lot, as Michelle has warned. But, to save all of mankind, it will be worth it. Obama will keep his promises to his people. He is telling Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid what to do. Obama is leading his party and crafted the stimulus bill personally. Everything that is in the bill is strategic and is exactly what Obama wanted. Therefore, it is a good bill.

If Obama says it is good, then it is good. If Obama says it is bad, then it is bad. It is that simple. Everyone should follow Obama. My Obama won!

“NO WAR” is obviously just a TROLL, having fun with you guys.

“He will restore America to allow other countries to like us again.”

NOBODY of actual voting age IS THAT STUPID and CHILDISH!!! “No War” is just mouthing the sort of NONSENSE that he thinks Obama-ites actually BELIEVE and he’s doing it to get a rise out of you all–and it’s working.

I’ve put these FACTS out there in other posts, but considering “NoWar” and his blind faith in the Democrat Party and his belief about war I figured I’d lay it on him again:
1. WWI – Woodrow Wilson – 2 Term Democrat
2. WWII – FDR – 4 Term Democrat
3. Korean Conflict – 2 Term Democrat
4. Vietnam/Bay of Pigs – Democrat

Now we have his Messiah – wonder what’s next?

Obama is exactly what 53 million people thought he was prior to the election; an empty suit. He’s Pelosi’s lap dog. I wish I would have been in that 53 million. I got caught up in the hype and was wrong to vote for Obama. However, given the revealing of his true colors, I will not make that mistake again in ‘12.

Regarding his most recent rhetoric, remember his inauguration speech where he said, “On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord?” How come he’s been fear-mongering like crazy about this bill and doing everything he can to squash civil discussion about it? Simple. HE’S A LIAR! JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER DAMM POLITICIAN! Just like he said he was going to usher in “a new era of accountability and transparency” then appointed at tax cheat to the agency that sees to it we all pay our taxes ethically and kept the blinders on the American public with this bill so they couldn’t see what a crap sandwich it actually is. He and the current congress are disgusting. This is far more flagrant than Bush taking us to war in Iraq (which I didn’t necessarily support). At least Bush had multiple intelligence sources to back his argument. What does Obama have? Certainly anyone who has studied economics or has run a business can clearly see this bill doesn’t address any of our current problems.

Forget about which Party you belong to. What has happened to “We the People.” This so called Stimulus Package is a disgrace to the American people and the fact that Senators could sign anything without having read it is appalling.

Imagine signing a contract or a will without having read it.

The Senators that signed this bill are selfish, thieves & should be impeached!
