Well looks like the Independents booted assholes outta office, after we read the health care and saw how dems r trying to fuck us, I think they might get the message now. We want insurance companies to have accountability, NOT A HUGE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. Trying to turn us into socialism, FU Obama the people have spoken, and in 2 years ur done, so go a socialist country if that is what u want, November came and went Yep I voted as did most of our Independents in college, sending all those letters and e-mails worked. Change is on the horizon

Sheeple led by Fox News to the slaughter. No campaign contribution limits for corporations anymore, and seeing as how corporations are Republican-friendly.....odd coincidence there, one might believe. Their most beautiful thing is that they dumb down their talking points so that everybody can parrot them when asked. Obama's failed so far. But wow, oh wow.....the Republicans electing batshit crazy Tea Partiers to office just guaranteed that he's going to be re-elected in 2 years. Health care's done, and won't be repealed. DADT will be ended. Obama will shift his focus to creating jobs, and the Republicans now have to do more than say no to his ideas, but since they can't, and won't, the public is going to get pretty tired of them, pretty fucking fast. And the idea that this election was about socialism and health care.....bahaha, say I. We're all recipients of socialist programs that aid us in this country regardless. This election was about jobs, Obama misunderstood that, and paid. Now he's got the message, and the next two years are going to be pointless, because the Republicans will try to shut down the government, and have already stated that their goal is to stop Obama from being re-elected. That's good for them, but ending the wars we're in, taking care of immigration, idk, JOBS for example, some of these could be a good idea for somebody to try until then. So to conclude, I offer a link, and a verse to the Bible, for those to dwell upon. www.whatthefuckhasobamadonesofar.com/1 Corinthians 13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

Health care will be changed, people only post what they want u to see on the health care bill, failed to read all of it. This change had to do with people tired of big government. Since there was a change, people like me voted to get rid of large government. Obama is for socialism. In Health care bill: to make your insurance part of your salary and taxed. Most ear marks in any bill in our entire history of the U.S. (if you do not know what an ear mark is look it up) 26 years for your kids wtfffffffffff, so they are adults and you have no say in how they lead their lives after 18, but you have to pay for it. Health care in anticipation has risen costs, ours at local hospital went up 28% (This Year) and still rising didn't do anything for the crooked insurance companies, this is where we needed to make the change. (This doesn't even touch on all the crap in the bill) Jobs? Obama isn't for helping small businesses, most of our family and friends with small businesses have laid off instead of hiring. Obama gave to HUGE CORPORATE BUSINESSES as a bailout that DIDN'T work, for contributions, sounds like he knew what he was doing. Take from small business and give to Banks and car companies to give FAT CATS bonuses. If he had given the money to the American people, we would have paid off our debts and started to buy again. It comes down, do u want a huge central or small central government. I want a limited small central government. I will vote him out. simple

I will vote him out. simple I deleted all the stuff not relevant. Health care won't be repealed or changed, due to numbers. The GOP has control over the House, but the Dems can filibuster them just like the Repubs did to them so often. The Dems still control the Senate, and Idk about you, but I'm not gonna hold my breath thinking they'll change a bill they fought for 2 years to pass. People can read or not read all they want, but Congress has rules, and according to those rules, the Republicans just won't have the numbers to touch the health care bill. And you say he doesn't help small businesses? You obviously didn't click my link. Here's another that might help: newsjunkiepost.com/2010/10/08/its-official-more-private-sector-jobs-created-in-2010-than-during-entire-bush-years/Big corporations, you don't say? Those that might use their newfound powers to spend heavily in advertising for Republican candidates? Wait....if Obama and them were close....but they paid for ads running against him.....ah, I must just be missing something, sometimes I get up during the Glenn Beck show, have to pee once in a while. Btw, I know you won't like hearing this.....the bailout, TARP, stuff that saved the big corps.....that came from the guy before Obama. True story. Wait....oh, that might be why corporations love Republicans then, that makes sense. Another link, to something that sums up what Obama's done a little better: newsjunkiepost.com/2010/11/01/what-obama-has-done-comprehensive-edition/Now, I like how you sum it up in the end. Big gov, small gov, that's the real debate here. But how about a government that takes care of its people? Health care for all of us, better education, equal rights for all citizens, gay or straight, more funding spent in this country building jobs for us instead of building bridges and roads for the 10th time after they've been blown up somewhere else, or at least to maybe not spend billions of dollars on a decade-long war that's basically accomplished the huge achievement of making more enemies every time we kill a few of them, is that a lot to ask from the people we elect? I don't like either side, the Republicans and especially the Tea Party members are paranoid dumbasses who try to disguise their bigotry as "the will of the people," and I REALLY don't like the Democrats who seem willing to let the Republicans stop them at every turn without trying to dig deep to help the people that actually did vote for a change. But I won't delude myself that Obama's to blame for this mess, nor will I blame Bush, as my Bible verse said....when I grew up, I put childish things and ideas aside.

I didn't see any bigotry when I went to a tea party convention, did you??? I went to see what it was about and the last thing there was was racial slurs from any race, I think media picked up on a few nuts and escalated it into bigotry. Did you see it? But they didn't change my mind about joining, I'm an Independent and will work towards my own agenda. One thing I did agree with is smaller government, and states rights, but as an Independent and my friends we are committed to this agenda.
The Prez said he would end the war, looks like he couldn't do it either, meh. He had the numbers to pass an end to it, and didn't make it a priority. The people who were caught for bombing and killing many people got off with a slap last week. Seems like if your a terrorist you came to the right country to fuck with, nothing happens.
People thought tea party would screw republicans in house elections, i was one of them, not that I cared, I want them all to be gone. I was wrong, they did nothing of the sort.
If Palin runs as Prez then I know the country has officially gone down the shitter, there HAS to be someone out there better than Obummer and Palin. They both make me sick.
IDK if HC bill will be repealed, but changes will take place, I just dont know if the law suit will have enough states. I agree we need a HC Bill bill, but not a 1/2 assed one they fed us. That was the absolute worse crap I have ever read. We should be ashamed that we elected people who would pass such a mess onto the American people.
But Americans are lazy, most never read or understand what is in a bill or what party leaders agenda r, they rely on crap media. All media is BS and crap. But to have to spend 6 months reading and trying to decipher meaning, most will be sheep.............. baaaa creatures ba.

Oh and I just got back text from my brother from Cali, he went to a tea party convention too, as well as a dem and rep, to compare. He did say no bigotry from tea party, many people of all color there also, and said dems and reps are same ole shit, slamming each other instead of concentrating on agendas. Cali's was way bigger than one i went to, so had to ask him just to compare.

I have a hard time believing it's just a few nutcases that are bigoted. I live in Oklahoma, as you know, and people eat that Tea Party stuff up here. I'm not saying the Tea Party is bigoted, but many in it, from my area of the world at least, have displayed signs of prejudice against Obama, gays, Muslims, Mexicans, quite a few minorities in general. It's nothing overt, like "I hate that darkie Prez, or I hate them faggots," but it's a subtle dislike that's still there, like emphasizing Obama's middle name(I mean in speaking his name, something like Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, like that), you can't tell me that so many people say that just so they'll get his name right.
Obama hasn't ended the wars yet, yes. But if I recall, he's withdrawn the last combat troops from Iraq this summer, and used them to press the Taliban in Afghanistan even further. I would like it to work a shitload faster than it is, and tbh, I want him to put both Israel and Iran in their places regarding things in the Middle East as well. And he needs to own up to his promises and close Gitmo like he told us he would do. He promised it, and I want it done, no need for that thing anymore. Also, with the terrorist getting acquitted, keep in mind, he was tried by an American jury trial, with Americans judging him, WE found him not guilty, so it's hard to blame the President for that, I'd rather have real trials in American courts, with American citizens deciding their fates than military trials that are faker than Lindsay Lohan promising to stay sober.
Tea Party did cost Republicans some elections, and life will be difficult for the Repubs at times, because now they won't be able to try to compromise with the Democrats at all, so not a lot may get done until the next elections, which is infuriating.
In my health care ideas, I want universal health care, with a working structure to pay for it, without giving up power to medical corporations and special interests. I'm taking a class this semester called Medical Sociology....I'm not going to quote dumbly from it, but I feel like there's so many special interest groups that average citizens are the ones getting screwed over. 30 million Americans were given the opportunity to receive medical insurance through the current health care bill that was passed, and whatever happens, I do not want people going without medical coverage if possible. I'm uninsured right now, so if something happens, I'm just screwed. I can't afford insurance, and neither can my family, I'm a college student, and I want something that's going to be able to make sure I'm able to have my health taken care of if needed while still being able to focus on my education, and that that is not an unreasonable demand to make.
America's built right now on winning arguments, and not on reaching agreements. But we still elect the people that argue the best and expect them to just agree with each other, even though their goal is to keep us electing them, which means that the arguing has to keep going for that to happen. Too many people buy into it, which is sad, but it's life, and shit happens, I guess.

We need to get rid of 2 party system, we need to get rid of all parties and go by a person's ability. We need flat tax. If we want people to have health coverage for all, y do we need insurance, y not just do social hospitals where it is all paid for and if ur a US citizen u can just go in for w/e. Oh and people will gripe, that all non citizens will need it too (like Cali -.-) With a flat tax we can have it, many countries do, I know in Montana people came from Canada to get the "tests" their Drs. wouldn't order, so not sure how effective this would really be. But hey free.

Just watched the State of Union Address and wow, he truly believes what he says is good. But a government run railway system, can u say AmTrak and Billions lost on that deal run by government. we do not need any more central government, we need private sectors investing and running it. So what this comes down to is this, if ur poor y work, the rich can pay for it all, we will tax the hell outta them. No Flat tax in site. Don't work too hard, ur money will become redistributed. Did no one notice the fall of the Soviet Union?

Um..I may not be edumicated like the college folk that dominated this debate, but I am pretty sure you simultaneously criticized the Soviet Union and centralized government, and proposed a one/no party system, and shit like free hospitals and clinics? Unless I just read it wrong that is. I think what you are trying to say is that there has to be a balance between capitalism and centralized government, as well as a better way to identify a candidate, not by the party they belong to but by their individual abilities and/or beliefs. Yes?

I think Obama is doing the best that he can in the cercumstances that he is put in. I think he did a masterfull job in hiding the Osama bin laden case untill he was destroyed. Obama has done some pretty great things and is trying to do every thing that he can do but, the republicans are fighting him every step of the way

His own party is now fighting the asinine crap he tried to pass behind the people's back. Have u read the crap, I mean REALLY READ the crap he has passed?? Also, ur right, he was given a load of crap dealt to him, the Fanny Mae crap that Barney helped pass when Clinton was in office ruined us, and later when Dems held majority...yep do ur research, Dems help majority during Bush, they could not reverse the crap passed. NOW I hate Reps and Dems, but I do read for myself andf not follow what the media wants us to believe, actually READ READ READ people, don't be a sheep!!!!

Read this, he wrote a great article and hit the nail on the head! Look up the author!!! [][]When will Obama crack in public? Posted: April 19, 2011 By Mychal Massie
At a time when many Americans can barely afford Burger King and a movie, Obama boasts of spending a billion dollars on his re-election campaign. Questioned at a recent appearance about the spiraling fuel costs, Obama said, "Get used to it" – and with an insouciant grin and chortle, he told another person at the event, who complained about the effect high fuel prices were having on his family, to "get a more fuel-efficient car."
The Obamas behave as if they were sharecroppers living in a trailer and hit the Powerball, but instead of getting new tires for their trailer and a new pickup truck, they moved to Washington. And instead of making possum pie, with goats and chickens in the front yard, they're spending and living large at taxpayer expense – opulent vacations, gala balls, resplendent dinners and exclusive command performances at the White House, grand date nights, golf, basketball, more golf, exclusive resorts and still more golf.
Expensive, ill-fitting and ill-chosen wigs and fashions hardly befit the first lady of the United States. The Obamas have behaved in every way but presidential – which is why it's so offensive when we hear Obama say, in order "to restore fiscal responsibility, we all need to share in the sacrifice – but we don't have to sacrifice the America we believe in."
The American people have been sacrificing; it is he and his family who are behaving as if they've never had two nickels to rub together – and now, having hit the mother lode, they're going to spend away their feelings of inadequacy at the taxpayers' expense.
Obama continues to exhibit behavior that, at best, can be described as mobocratic and, at worst, reveals a deeply damaged individual. In a February 2010 column, I asked, "Is Obama unraveling?" I wrote that it was beginning to appear the growing mistrust of him and contempt for his policies was beginning to have a destabilizing effect on him.
At that time, I wrote that not having things go one's way can be a bitter pill, but reasonable people don't behave as he was behaving. He had insulted Republicans at their luncheon, where he had been an invited guest. I had speculated that was, in part, what had led him to falsely accuse Supreme Court justices before Congress, the nation and the world, during the 2010 State of the Union address.
It appeared, at that time, as if he were "fraying around the emotional edges." That behavior has not abated – it has become more pronounced. While addressing the nation, after being forced to explain the validity of his unilateral aggression with Libya, America witnessed a petulant individual scowling and scolding the public for daring to insist he explain his actions.
But during an afternoon speech to address the budget/debt, he took his scornful, unstable despotic behavior to depths that should give the nation cause for concern. Displaying a dark psychopathy more representative of an episode of "The Tudors" television series, he invited Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis.., to sit in the front row during his speech and then proceeded to berate both Ryan and Ryan's budget-cutting plan. Even liberal Democrats were put off by the act. MSNBC's Joe Scarborough questioned the sanity of Obama's actions.
Today, criticism is coming from all sides. A senior Democrat lawmaker said, "I have been very disappointed in [Obama], to the point where I'm embarrassed that I endorsed him.. It's so bad that some of us are thinking, is there some way we can replace him? How do you get rid of this guy?" ("Democrats' Disgust with Obama," The Daily Beast, April 15, 2011)
Steve McCann wrote: Obama's speech "was chock full of lies, deceit and crass fear-mongering. It must be said that [he] is the most dishonest, deceitful and mendacious person in a position of power I have ever witnessed" ("The Mendacity of Barack Obama," AmericanThinker..com, April 15, 2011).
McCann continued: "[His] performance was the culmination of four years of outright lies and narcissism that have been largely ignored by the media, including some in the conservative press and political class who are loath to call [him] what he is in the bluntest of terms: a liar and a fraud. That he relies on his skin color to intimidate, either outright or by insinuation [against] those who oppose his radical agenda only add to his audacity. It is apparent that he has gotten away with his character flaws his entire life, aided and abetted by sycophants around him. …"
With these being among the kinder rebukes being directed at Obama, and with people becoming less intimidated by his willingness to use race as a bludgeon, with falling poll numbers in every meaningful category and an increasingly aggressive tea-party opposition – how much longer before he cracks completely?
The coming months of political life are not going to be pleasant for Obama. Possessed by a self-perceived palatine mindset, that in his mind places him above criticism, how long before he cracks in public? Can America risk a man with a documented track record of lying and misrepresenting truth as a basic way of life, who is becoming increasingly more contumelious?

Looks like Obama's economic policies haven't really been good or bad, which lets his intangibles such as Libya, the Iraq pullout, crusading for gay rights, and the big one you'll hear about 1000 times per month or so, Bin Laden, speak volumes for his reelection efforts.
Personally, I'd vote for him anyways, but the Republicans are making it just too easy for him. Add in the 90% or so of the minority vote, and I think Obama wins something like 55% of the popular vote and takes the electoral by 100 or so. When the only competition against him is a corporate cheerleader like Romney, or a hypocritical blowhard like Gingrich....can anybody see the Republicans winning this fall?
