Obama: Government 'made this country great'

[Psalm 144]

Urban Rodent sez: “Good food comes from tipped over garbage cans. Everyone knows that. Garbage cans are what make out nest great!”

[oldenuff2no]

He is so full of $hitt. It is the working people of the past and present who have made and make this country great. Not the bloated government and welfare class who sit on their butts and refuse to work.
Working people who create jobs and pay wages, Working people who earn those wages, People who don't play the victim part and who get off their ass and find a job no matter where that is. These are the people who make America great!!!!!
The rest of them along with over sized big government is what has drug us into the gutter lately.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Yet he’s not a “Socialist” and none dare call him that

[running_dog_lackey]

If government made this country great why would some idiot want to fundamentally change it?

[lowbridge]

Same here.

[Seaplaner]

President Obama attacked Republicans for their desire to cut the government spending that "made this country great," while also faulting them for failing to "balance the budget."

Hmmm, April First isn't until tomorrow, and I don't see JOHN SEMMENS' byline.

Mister Obama actually said this?

WOW... no, it was kicking a British government out of our affairs, loser.

Muslims and leftists are like that, you want apostasy or divorce or a declaration of independence, and you get a promise of death sentence.

Everything about government has expanded under Buckwheat, including Michelle’s butt.

Where is that great video from a couple of months ago showing men in a holy communion service on a rolling ship destined for battle of WWII in the Pacific? That will haunt my memory for a long time, looking into the faces of so many who you knew would never be coming back.

Government may be the hardware, but its people are the software without whom the greatest technical innovations are so much useless junk.

God help us all.

[Kickass Conservative]

Both President Reagan and President G.W. Bush CUT Tax Rates for every Taxpayer and Revenues to the Government Increased from 35% to 50% during their Terms.

Obama lies once again. Cutting Tax Revenue collected is a Liberal policy. They increase Tax Rates and get less money.

In Obama’s case we should rename “The Laffer Curve” to “The Laughing Commie”. He laughs because the Useful Idiots believe every word that come out of his lying Pie Hole.

If it isn't about Taxes, it's the Liberal Obama 2% Lie about the United States Oil Supply.

[Secret Agent Man]

No, the PEOPLE of this country made it great. Despite government.

[Kickass Conservative]

Make that nearly 100% (not 50%) rise in Federal Tax Revenues during Reagan's Term.

[right way right]

Here I sit at my computer on my fat ass and they would throw me in jail if I said what really needs to happen.

Let’s just say that election’s won’t fix this country.

Would, somebody give me a reason for optimism.

I guess this is just a discouraging day for me.

Are there others who Love God (Jesus), the Constitution,
The “American dream” etc.

I think we are on the edge of another dark ages.

Perhaps, Christ is coming soon? That actually is my hope.

[orinoco]

A quote from Abraham Lincoln regarding the success and prosperity of the U.S...

All this is not the result of accident. It has a philosophical cause. Without the Constitution and the Union, we could not have attained the result; but even these, are not the primary cause of our great prosperity. There is something back of these, entwining itself more closely about the human heart. That something, is the principle of “Liberty to all”—the principle that clears the path for all—gives hope to all—and, by consequence, enterprise, and industry to all.

The desire in the human heart for liberty is what made this country great. Limited small government allowed liberty to flourish. Big government is destroying it!!!

But he knows his peeps are even dumber so he can say whatever he needs to.

Naw, they’ll take him back and give him a Welcome Home party.

[beethovenfan]

Yeah, that covers it pretty well.

[No One Special]

Sure Bambi, but, and it's big but, it needs to be controlled. That's our job, Bambi. You know, us , We the People. Should have cracked the books a little harder, Bambi, and then you wouldn't have to learn this lesson the hard way.

To wit:
Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. George Washington
