Why should we keep sending 700 billion to overseas drilling. Why isn't the government rounding up illegals in America that is breaking several states. That would put Americans back to work. Cut the worthless Gov't jobs that need to be cut. How much more are We The People going to take from our worthless Government. Where are the Military Leaders who could follow the footsteps of Eisenhower, Patton, MacArthur , and Halsey to protect and defend Our Country, Constitution amd We The People. Is it going to take We The People to stand up and FIGHT to rid this country of the Tyranny that is happening. The day is coming American's to LOCK and LOAD and DEFEND OURSELVES from these WORTHLESS IDIOTS that are destroying the Country that we LOVE.

Aren't they complaining about the high deficits? And what about spending cuts? Where? None that I can see. I saw a report that the federal employment is the same in 2010 as it was in 1963. The difference is? Contractor services. Has the GOP decided to go after contractor services that ballote the budget??? I have heard of nothing on this account, have you?? They have offered no plan because they have no plan. Voting them in is not a solution because they have no solutions for the middle class.

After taking office he worked on everything but jobs and the economy. They shoved one piece of crap legislation through congress after another to the point companies do not trust him and the working people trust him even less. Theya re worried what piece of crap will put them on the unemployment line. Bush did not do this ,they did it to themselves.

Now he is finally making a big deal for jobs and token tax cuts. It wouldn't be a political move for the impending elections, WOULD IT??

September 10 2010 at 6:51 PM Report abuse Permalink -4 rate up rate down ReplyMiddle Class Americans were destroyed by this administration. Can't blame Republicans as Dems had the majority of Senate, Congress and the WH. They just abused their power and pushed their ideology too far!
September 10 2010 at 7:41 PM Report abuse Permalink +6 rate up rate down ReplyWhen was the last time that a GOP senator has spoken out against partisan gridlock? George Voinovich governs on the same platform as Scott Brown, Susan Collins, and Olympia Snowe. We need more Republican senators like this with a Democratic majority in Congress. The ones who stall and fillibuster are OUT NOVEMBER 2nd!

September 11 2010 at 10:21 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyBTW, the $30 billion lending pool won't help anything. Small businesses have access to plenty of money at very low interest rates. The problem is that Obama has bashed the private sector so much that the business world knows he doesn't have their best interests in mind. Obama only supports his union constituents, at the expense of the rest of the private sector. They see the coming tax hikes, and are suffering the consequences of Obamacare and the new Frank/Dodd financial regs. Lots of red tape, lots of hoops to jump through, and lots of uncertainty in our fragile economy.

September 10 2010 at 6:32 PM Report abuse Permalink -4 rate up rate down ReplyJust a few days ago, Obama said the GOP had no new ideas for the economy, just the same old ideas from the Bush administration. In the same speech, he said he wanted tax incentives for R&D, plus a new depreciation schedule for business purchases of capital goods. These are two ideas from the business friendly GOP of the Bush era. Why is it that whenever election time rolls around, liberal democrats suddenly see the light and run on fiscally conservative ideas?
September 10 2010 at 3:15 PM Report abuse Permalink +12 rate up rate down ReplyWhy is it that now that we have a Democrat President the Republicans won't vote for their own ideas??
