Yep, BHO has transformed the US from hopeful to hopeless.

The Soviets gave Marxism-Leninism sixty years to “work” - and then gave up.

How long are the American people expected to wait?

We need different names for different degrees.

There is absolutely no comparison between a PhD in physics, math, or engineering and a PhD in economics, education, or political “science”.

And those loons are ruining the title.

Obama promised to fundamentally transform America. He did just that.
I look around, and I do not like what I see.

We could ask, "Are you better off now than you were 4 years ago?"
Or we could ask, "Do you like the New America? Is the transformation working for you?"

He has certainly moved fast,

I believe that the reason he moved so fast was the belief that other Socialist Presidents failed because they moved too slow.

I sure hope the next wacko President doesn’t double down and try to enact this kind of crap within 3 months of taking office. I don’t think we will survive it.

"We simply need more of them, and more time for them to work –"

Yup, typical Keynesian economic response to failure. . . we didn't spend enough, that's why it didn't work. However, "enough" is never defined and is always a moving target. A trillion dollars didn't work because we didn't spend 2 trillion. Two trillion didn't work, etc.

This is exactly how they argue "Man Made Global Warming". No matter what the weather conditions are at the time, it is always proof positive for its existence. Too hot. . . GW, Too cold . . GW . . just right . . GW.

2or 3 % ? I think he'd need at least 5% to get what he wants.

Utopia never fails.

Zero could pull his chestnuts out of the fire by proposing a flat tax with no exemptions, but he’ll never do it. He truly believes the rich should pay more because it’s “fair.”

What shocks me is how few people see how exactly 2008 copied 1929. Our experts say the same things they did then; the only difference is that the Democrat got elected right then instead of three years later. People ought to remember this, either from their own memories, or from older family members.

But because it worked last time, the Democrats are STILL blaming the Republicans!!! And the Republican are letting them get away with it!!! America couldn’t spend itself into prosperity then, and it can’t now.

Guess we’ll have to have a major war to ‘recover.’

I'd like all those folks that bad mouthed GWB to step forward and take a bow.... I don't think the dems could have done a better job disenfranchising conservative voters in 2008.

I wouldn't be surprised to see that tactic again - “let's paint the conservative as a moderate so all the conservatives stay home.”

BHO didn't appoint himself to the job - he had alot conservatives that were too proud to get out and vote for the lesser of two evils and the result was that they voted for BHO in the end by not showing up.

How many people use rude rhetoric to describe convserative candidates rather than principled arguments ? I hear alot of that on talk radio.... I wonder how many Mike Savage fans stayed home.... (and I like Dr. Savage).

At the White House, as in many universities, it is simply understood that private individuals and organizations only do reckless and self-serving things with wealth. And it is equally understood that when super smart politicians and government bureaucrats control greater portions of the nation’s wealth – with more taxation, more government spending, and more government regulations – well, those super smart politicians always produce great results for everybody.

After all, one need only examine the policies of California to see how well it works!!!
