this speech is like a communist speech
he just said things like
Govt has to increase spending because we as families are cutting spending
who the hell are these idiots clapping him, the communist party or something?
He believes that Govt has to spend and spend and to support banks, jobs, companies etc
This is unbelievable
he thinks health care will get us out of this
he wants banks to give loans out when it was that what caused this.
he forced banks to take money and won’t let them give it back
this is a hostile takeover by radicals and some idiots are clapping, MY WORD this is unbelievable and the media will to qustion any of this ?????????????????

speechless I am
never would I thought I would ever hear a speech which is directing us to a take over into Marxism.
he even laughed at the thought of his liberal socialist spending
the arrogance
now this was at Georgetown , are they complete clowns there or something, clapping clapping for what
that he has no clue what eh is doing .
clapping unemployment going through the roof
clapping that Govt will dictate everything in our life
clapping that the markets, 401k, has gone down while spending and debt has gone up
just after he said he wants to increase spending the Muppet’s in the crowd clapped for crying out loud will these idiots get a grip of themselves and show how to question someone

Well, he was a socialist too. Witness his admin’s spending and the fraudulent bailout of the Wall St. welfare queens.
That being said, the markets tank every time Hussein Soetero opens his mouth.

(Q: What's the best way to rob a bank? A: Own one)
To: NMEwithin
indeed it is
I remember in the election time I asked many of them why you voting for obama
none really knew all they could say was change, talks well, change that was it
when I brought up points they just look dumbfounded and many had never even heard about them.
Now when I meet any of them I ask them how they think he is doing and they are like robots with the same words as their messiah.
When I ask them about unemployment going through the roof, debt going sky high record highs, spending out of control, markets have lost
they just look dumbfounded again I swear these people do not have a clue what they are doing or thinking
never would I have seen so many dumb voters and many of them are actually college kids who do not have a job, never had a full time job, and they have parents who are rich and come form elitist areas of places like MA, NY etc
indeed if obama said he is clamping down on free speech ,dissenters will be arrested and held
these idiots would still clap
this is indeed scary
do they even teach the constitution in schools anymore??????

Do you have any information that can back this up. Pick the S&P on a several occassions throughout W’s time in office when speeches were given. I’m interested in seeing if there is the same consistent trend (not just one time) that we have seen recently.
