Ask yourself these questions about goings-on

The current recessional situation in America is being worsened by our Congress and our President. The uncertainty and resultant national stress is being fueled by President Barack Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Harry Reid. Each citizen, especially those who disagree with the above statement, should ask themselves the following questions:

If Obama says he can salvage billions in waste and fraud in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security to support his agenda, why isn't he salvaging those billions regardless of his agenda?

If Pelosi and Reid manage to pass an agreed upon "Cap & Trade" bill, which Obama has stated will probably triple each household's electricity costs, wouldn't you hesitate to buy an Obama-approved, partially electrically fueled motor vehicle and plug it into your household electric outlet each day?

If the government's track record of being bilked out of billions of dollars in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security is true, wouldn't a government-run insurance plan be bilked too?

If you were buying a new home and the seller's Realtor presented you with a 2,000 page document to sign at closing, would you sign it?

Obama, Pelosi and Reid are prepared to sign similar size bills that will likely result in the destruction of our dollar, our economy and our freedom to make our own decisions.

Our senior Socialist senator Saxby is a big supporter of Cap and Trade bill because it increases ETHANOL subsidies and our junior Socialist senator Johnny has just finished working with Reid to write and pass a $24 Billion fraued filled taxpayer rip off housing bill. We have work to do in Georgia without worring about other states.

Those are very good questions Mr. Rickaby.

"This Persident is causing a particular segment of the population to lose their collective minds." You are right Justus4 (except it's the President, not the Persident). Those who lost their minds are the ones who can't list a single thing that this man has done to make the country better.

The Democrats have held the purse strings and control of congress or at least one chamber of congress for some time now, They wrote the bills and spent the money, not the Republicans.

The Repubs were too busy lining their pockets to write bills for "the little people", so, now it`s time to set the balance the other way. How long did it take Bush to screw it up? Probably about 2 weeks so I see your problem with wanting instant sucess. It takes a lot longer to un-do something than to get it wrong. Measure twice, cut once didn`t ever occur to Bush. He had a lifetime of failures which support the "Peter Principal". Which indicates an idiot will be promoted to his highest level of incompetance. You will not see any "overnight miracles" so give the man a chance. There is somewhat less graft and deviant methods of taking the money. No one has answered "where did the money go?" yet...

Keep hammering the Georgia RINO senators, Ga Values. With the up coming elections, they both need to be replaced with fiscal (and social) conservatives.

justus4 - The first 2 sentences that is documented FACTS I have ever seen you post. "Fool! The (D) were put there to change policies - that's what they are doing." .. "Watch how real leadership is conducted and applied to better the county." In 2 sentences, you said it all.

FaceTheMusic

So, Gene, your solution would be to turn it all back over to the Republicans who got us into this mess to begin with?

Tigger_The_Tiger

FaceTheMusic.....explain how the Republicans "got us into this mess to begin with."

CobaltGeorge

"Republicans who got us into this mess to begin with"? Why is this always coming up in these debates. The Democrates were in
control for the last 4 years before the take over of this present government administration. Why haven't they corrected this mess instead of making it WORST! AND WORST IS A FACT!

prezbho said if HIS $787 (was it BILLION or TRILLION) porkulus bill wasn't passed, 2010 would have unemployment of 8.6%. Well it is now recorded at 10.2% and is said with ALL unemployment to be at 17%. Now who's fault is that? It is time for the ego-driven/incompetent prezbho to accept the responsibility of his actions and plans. He is supposedly suppose to be in charge now, what is happening now - is the responsibility of prezbho. If you're not concerned - You're not paying attention...

CobaltGeorge

convertedsoutherner, If you're not concerned - You're not paying attention...I have always like that comment. I have to come up with one.

We will at least have "free" health care while we are going cold and hungry. Does the health care bill say anything about jobs so we can maybe pay for our own medical care and feed our families. Grocery prices (along with most everything else) going through the roof and the idiots want us to think things are getting better?

Woe Is Me. Save me Rushbo & Beckster. Get me a job sweeping the floors and cleaning the bathrooms at Faux Noise. OOPS, got to go Meet the Press is coming on right now. What Me Worry? No thanks, you folks are doing just fine by yourselves. Talk amongst your shaky group of fearful citizens.

convertedsoutherner

The comment seems to be so fitting when some of the posters ignore the facts and their only way to respond is to attack the messenger.

dani

Ignorance is bliss, the old saying goes. Better to be concerned.

CobaltGeorge

How about this one, "If you don't accept documented and known facts, You are not too smart"

CobaltGeorge

Good Morning fearless Niko.

johnston.cliff

It's a little early for that cork, isn't it Niko? If this administration get's it way (and remains in power forever) you'll need much more, but will have much less.

Justass is a "Tiger petter".

Tigger_The_Tiger

Faux Noise.....meaning Not really noise?

disssman

I hate to tell Gene but any closing on a house probably is covered by many thousands of legal law documents. These documents include laws on interest payments, tax payments, bank payments, insiurance payments etc. etc.. Just because it isn't signed at closing dosen't mean there isn't a supporting state or federal policy or law included in the transaction. I really wonder what the page count would be for all the laws that cover insurance companys operations right now?

convertedsoutherner

niky continues to prove he is the Perfect O Supporter (fawning follower). Ignore the facts and posts his same-o rhetoric with no substance...

Tigger_The_Tiger

Butler....as long as he's not a Tigger Petter!

butler123

lol, got that yesterday off here. Speaking about being politically correct. Not all tigers are man killers. Statistics show that most tigers are man killers. By the rule of political correctness, we must pet all tigers equally until those tigers that main and kill commit the act. Only a fool would abide by those rules. Tiger petter is my new saying. Thanks to John (somebody).

Happy Sunday to you Cobalt George! And to the others, Cliff worry about yourself, not about me. And Tugger, nice try but Fake Noise is just what Fox News is about.
