been reading all these ideas an post's. an haven't heard one thing what brought all this on.

why did bush in 05. fire all 50 mortage sherrifs, that over seen loans an made sure proper colatoral was sufficent on purchase. an when the sherrifs went away big money came in bought up all those worthless mortages. held on to them for 8 months put them in block packages. knowin they were worthless but first buyer fom realaste brokers knew he would get his money back after selling on the market hmo's.

an when the maket buyers got them an found out what they were panic set in an market got flooded with them. but the money backers an the realaste brokers closed up thier tempoary shops an walked away with millions. one realaste broker from new jersy walked away with three billion. the feds tried to hold onto him but had no case his bussiness closed. an moved to san francisco. but he was kind an gave u.s. goverment one billion which was very gracious of him.

any of you remember all that. i sure heck do.

Clinton's repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act started the whole mess if I remember correctly...

Hey I hear Colorado are about to get their weed legal now, like the Netherlands, well at least Romney can't get his hands on it since He lives in a different State - Yay! Prohibition for weed and other religions can stay in Texas with Romney - though I feel sorry for the people who have got to live with that man!

The one thing I remember about George W. Bush is that he turned his back on the people of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit and busted the Levees. It may have been him who did that but his Politics Screamed Republican - can you forgive Republicans who turn their back on your plight and leave you to rot like their houses their community, their relatives? Are the Levees back to the way it was once? Who did it? Did Bush have a hand in getting New Orleans on its feet - I think not. Obama is the Man - He is Still digging his way out of the Rat-hole that Bush made for himself - It will take a good four years to get America back to the way it was before Bush stomped all over the place - making a nuisance of himself. Bush couldn't say more than four words at a time when he spoke to the American people. Obama on the other hand can speak volumes of what he Wants to do for you - Let him do it!

Today I am seventy-one. I can still cut the butter and I ride a bike regularly to keep fit and pump iron in the Gym. I work with Ubuntu - a Linux distribution of an alternative to the Windows system which (like Apple) will bleed you dry of your hard-earned cash! Make sure your not one of them - Ubuntu is free and the applications that go with it are too including Libre-Office fast becoming better than Windows Office 10!

I'm not angry. I actually expected it. The reason many of the economic bills failed in the House was because they were really spending bills that failed to reduce Federal spending. Many of the "shovel ready" jobs bills that Obama did get passed didn't generate that many jobs & cost the deficit dearly for the jobs they did produce.

When you Liberals talk about the GOP stonewalling have you forgotten about Harry Reid. In the past he promised that no bill with GOP fingerprints on it would get past him and he's kept his word. Reid also said that if Romney was elected he would work with or talk to Romney. He said he just could not work with Romney, ever. I guess that this would not be stonewalling because he's a Democrat. Double standards are a hallmark of the Liberal philosophy.


There is no double standard both parties are equally guilty of a failure to meet in the middle. What needs to be put forth is a genuine effort from both sides. In the past four years the Republican Party acted to limit the effectiveness of government in correcting the economic downturn. Their thinking was to make the President look ineffective and thereby limit him to one term. This is a well-documented fact. As a result of this purely political policy the country's recovery has been slow. Now, is the time to move away from the both party's lines and come together.

You are very angry that your guy lost...that's something that you need to deal with. I have posted before that I don't know why you feel the way you do I can only guess.

Scott...what standard would be acceptable for a shovel ready job to passed? You stated they were too costly for the number of jobs created. What is the standard that would be acceptable?

SCOTT, SCOTT, where did you go? What can't answer the question...I thought not because you, like many in your party have no concept of how to do anything...it is easy to say no but really hard to come up with a solution.

You need to gets your facts straight...It was Mayor Nagin who did not enforce a mandatory evacuation in spite of advancve warnings that ther hurricne was about to hit. He had buses lined up, ready to go, but did nothing. Pluys the people who stayed behind did so of their own free will. Don't you think they share culp[ability. Of course you don't cause you are a liberal & they can do no wrong. It's always somneone else's fault. Obama's not doing much better for the people in the Northeast. Seems they are helping each other more than EMA is...Where is the outcry there ? there won't be any because of a Democratic President. Spare me your indignation as it is not making me think different. Yeah, let Obama have his way & Greece will look like a vacation destination...

Really? Texas is a pretty big state but, I don't think Romney is here. Actually, I don't think you have a clue what you are trying to say.

What is an appropriate standard for a shovel ready job? Please give us your interpretation of a shovel ready job that is cost effective and creates jobs. I have been waiting I want to know, hell, America wants to know what in your opinion is a good shovel ready job?

I have to disagree with you on this one too. Though I will admit, Bush wasn't much of a speaker, Obama can't think on his feet either. Have you ever listened to the man speak? Oh sure, he can read a speech someone else wrote for him but, if he is speaking impromptu, he can't say more than 4-5 words without stopping and thinking about the next 4-5 words he is going to say. It is one of the most annoying speech patterns I have heard in a president. And that last line . . . . "speak volumes about what he WANTS to do for you." Ok, that is campaigning. Now the campaign is over. I want to see what he DOES do for us.
