I hear you, like I said, we don’t normally do this, but some of them appear to be regular people suffering from the muzzie loving president.

I run in circles that are prepping to take our country back. Not an armed kind of thing, but a survival tactic. We are not going to abide by their ‘rules’. Eventually, freedom will win. We are in a battle, it’s just not being fought with guns.

Just look at the tea parties. I live in Wisconsin, look what’s happening here, previously a blue state, fighting gallantly to be red. We are going to win every battle the unionista’s throw at us.

2010 was the warning shot, the supreme court election in Wisconsin was a battle, 2012 will decide the outcome. We aren’t going away, obama is a mistake, and history will prove it. He’s going down big time. Americans are still Americans, we LOVE our freedom. We’ve been rising up and it’s not diminishing. I still have hope. After November 2012, my opinion may change. So far, we have the upper hand.

Consider that the government is being set up to run on its own without interference from ‘elected officials’.
The EPA is one example. The HHS (Obamacare) and the NLRB (Boeing dictate) are just two more.

Like the scene in ‘Cabaret’....”Still think you can contain them?”

62,000 were mcburgerflipper jobs... the balance were theoretical jobs supposedly created by the keynesian economic theory of X number of jobs created per X number of Federal dollars spent... pure bullsh!t!

“That means over the last 14 months,” Obama said, “we’ve added more than 2 million jobs in the private sector.”

I take some comfort in the knowledge that when the mobs come with pitchforks and torches and tar and feathers, they will grab the media as well as the politicians.

Obama is in for a historic blowout next year. A 54-46 type drubbing. Why do I think that, because his poll number barely creaked up this week, and people are done with him. he's lost the 35-65 White Independent demographic, they are now split something like 70/30 against. That';s killer and means he will lose states like Fl, Nevada, NC, VA, Ind, Pa, NM, Colorado, Wisconsin and Iowa. He's done and he knows it, the iceberg is on the horizon and The Good Ship Obama is running out of time to have the rudder steer clear. I still think he does not make it to next November, maybe some scandal like this OBL cluster f* will bring him down. The Truth ALWAYS prevails, G* set it up that way.

I’ve never taken an economics class and I know this country is in a terrible position right now.

Yeah, those “serious headwinds” are largely the Presidency of Barack Obama.

Easy for him to say... He’s causing the “hit”.

Exactly.

Yep. Our fearless leaders have many layers of QE methods to try. Money, money everywhere! Who said that it doesn't grow on trees? ;-)

I was in Nashville last week. There were homeless sleeping under bridges etc, all over the place in prominent places smack dab in downtown.

That's normal for this place, I live in Trashville... we had a serious homeless problem before Osama was even elected.

Wasn’t 60 thousand of them Mac Donald’s low paying jobs?

Yep, and the rest were an accounting gimmick.

I never understood the meaning of the old Mussolini saying that "it takes a dictator to make the trains run on time" until an older Italian lady explained it to me. The trains never ran on time when Musso was in power.

Perhaps living in ‘Eskimo’ land alters your point of view. But that guy looked like my ‘dad’. Maybe he bought booze, but maybe he got a meal and a room. Maybe he was a vet. Lot’s of maybe’s.

One thing I’m grateful for is when the SHTF, all you southerns will take the brunt of the takers. Us in the northern regions will survive, we’re programmed to take on the worst. You all will have leeches, sucking the blood out of your states. We’ll be happy being cold and miserable, shoveling 2 feet of snow.

They’ll migrate to the ‘nice’ weather states. Nature has it’s way.

I kind of feel sorry for you. You all down south will deal with the brunt of the looters. But then again, up here in Eskimo land, we’ve lived it forever. We’ll chop wood and make sure our well and septic are working and survive no power.

I’m glad I live far away from a ‘city’.

We live in a different world than the rest of the country.

We are the bitter clingers. LOL!
