Notice how “nice” he’s going to be?
They’re going to reform the tax code and ASK those who can afford it to pay a little more.

That’s nice of them to ask - what if we say “no”?

Oh? “No” isn’t an option? So you meant “TAKE from those we think can afford it”, right?

[mlocher]

Nothing new. Blame Bush. Blame the republicans. Same old do nothing proposals.

At times he seemed incredibly unsure of himself.

[NoLibZone]

[AlphaOneAlpha]

Same old drivel with a sprinkling of blaming others.
This clown is a full fledged loser.

[Nachum]

Buffet was one of the first things he mentioned.

I just lost the feed. Eh.

Not too disappointed. :)

[americanophile]

"we'll always be a AAA country"

Honestly, doesn't he have to be embarrased?

[comebacknewt]

Can't cut any more entitlement spending?!?!?!?

Just exactly the WRONG message to send the markets. Look for the downward spiral to continue at an even more rapid pace.

[NormsRevenge]

sub-11,000 .. wow.

will it stay there or drop even further?

wait, there’s a weak pulse.. don;t nail the coffin yet. ;-)

If Dems could tax ‘all those who could afford it’ at rate of 100% it wouldn’t even be a drop in the bucket of our budget deficit...

[Winstons Julia]

Families want Washington to work. Working people just trying to raise families. It’s not too much to ask. I care about the American people....blahblahblah....

Now he’s praising the Armed Forces and talking about the loss this weekend.

The background of the troops represents the diversity of America. They come together as a team to fight for our ideals.

We need to have an America that represents them.

[varina davis]

No thinking American can swallow this drivel.

[tumblindice]

Dow is tanking as he speaks. He’s a Jonah!

[Bluebird Singing]

It’s obvious he does not truly feel this pride in America that he is FAKING right now.

GET LOST obama! He has failed our great country. (but is succeeding in HIS marxist fundamental transformation of the United States of America).

[mulligan]

Obama is a liar, a ‘blamer’ and less competent than a new born baby. How this person ever became President is beyond any intelligent reasoning.

[liberalh8ter]

Rush is going to love Obama's little blurb about "despite what some credit ratings agencies may say, America has always had and always will have a AAA credit rating".

Ahhhhh, dumbo.....as of Friday night, ahhhh, NO. Once again, he's operating on the " if I say it, it's true" principle. We can't survive another year + of this moron.

The End
