FUBO

The only answer he deserves.

"Do we go forward towards a new vision of an America in which prosperity is shared?" Obama asked.

There is nothing new about the vision in which prosperity is "shared" by government command.

It's been tried in National Socialist Germany, Soviet Socialist Russia, Mao's People's Republic of China, Cuba, Viet Nam, Yugoslavia, North Korea, East Germany, and many other places that traded the difficulties before communism for abject misery after prosperity was shared under the command of people who believe what Obama believes. No, thank you, I'll keep my freedom. Those wealthier than me can keep the prosperity that they earned. They built it - it's not mine.

Just SAY IT Obozo- “Share The Wealth” - right?

Tell the people we should embrace Marxism you lying sack of sh!t.

Prosperity has always been shared in America, zer0. Just not in the statist marxist fashion you advocate. Prosperity is available to all who want it and work for it.

Rush has it right when he says that liberals want equality of results rather than equality of opportunity (with the exception of their Bourgeois selves, of course).

There is nowhere else in the world that an anti-patriotic, unqualified, 'fairy tale' community organizer could be elected President. And that is because of the shared Prosperity that is infused and inherent in the opportunity, goodwill and abundance of the American tradition that this treasonous Occupier is trying to fundamentally change. Your eviction notice will be served soon.

As the free market society of America has always had the highest charity rates of any nation in history, it is clear that the Old America shares its wealth.

The new America with the government hands tightly wrapped around the throat of commerce regulating it to death has impoverished us all and sharply reduced the ABILITY to share.

Obama and the Chichago thugocracy is exactly the wrong way to accomplish his empty promises.

Responsible leaders that have enough basic business sense to actually write, pass and follow a budget is the right way. It is past time to flush Congress, the bowl is full.

[Mouton]

Obama, no you were not the first to come up with this in America. I think The Black Hand (la manna nera) came up with this long before your rancid body arrived on the planet.

"Do we go forward towards a new vision of an America in which prosperity is shared?" Obama asked.

shared is Newspeak for I take what you earned. What an despicable generation of worthless scoundrels we have raised for this message to have led to a Presidency in the first place.

[layman]

no matter what you look like, no matter where you come from, no matter what your last name is, no matter who you love, you can make it here if you try.

That's right Obama ... a gay black man from Kenya named Obama can become president ... why would you want to change it ?

[Wyatt's Torch]

Shared is another word for THEFT

[GOPJ]

Obama doesn't mind taking from those who earn because he stands philosophically with looters ...

Obama says ‘we're not really stealing what you earned, because you didn't earn it... you got ‘help’ so you're no different than a third generation dependent welfare family.” Help? What help? The regulations? Taxes? EPA crap? What ‘help’?

Obama and team say, “roads’ as if ‘roads’ don't go to Detroit... as if 'roads' weren't built by those who pay taxes...

It's time to vote dems out of office before they destroy the country.

Prosperity IS shared. Prosperous people start businesses, grow businesses, and employ lots of people. They contribute to the overall economy by buying business and consumer goods. It’s called a free market economy.

Obama’s idea of sharing prosperity is the government confiscating wealth from the private sector, picking business winners and losers contingent on how much graft comes their way, and doling government money out to grow dependency, i.e. buy votes.

The 2012 elections will be Choom & Gloom v. R & R (resucitation & revival)...

[ctdonath2]

When you start a job and the prior occupant of the office left a steaming bag of stink on the desk, it’s not your fault.
If it’s still there 4 years later, accompanied by a couple more such bags, it is.

[canuck_conservative]

Choom & Gloom

LOL

good one!

[Ezekiel]

I believe we have to keep working to create an America where no matter who you are, no matter what you look like, no matter where you come from, no matter what your last name is, no matter who you love, you can make it here if you try.

Nothing is supposed to matter except some vague process of trying because progressive ideals lead straight to abyss. That's a degenerate, perverted, dazed and confused America built by someone else... Satan.

[Waryone]

Oh dear, I really need to get my eyes checked. I was just so sure he had finally come out of the Marxist socialist closet.

Reason for the eye exam, I thought the title read --

Obama: "A New Vision Of An America In Which Property Is Shared" (video)

He may not have actually said that, but I'm absolutely sure that is what he was thinking.

[ctdonath2]

“Sharing” is a concept I’m currently have to teach a couple toddlers.
The hard part of late is emphasizing is that “sharing” is initiated by the one who has as a gesture of generosity - and _not_ initiated by the one who has-not as an act of greed.

Toddler: “He’s not sharing!”
Daddy: “He found the toy and decided to play with it first. There is just one of it, and only one person can play with it at a time. You don’t get to take it away from him just because you want it. You will wait until he is done with it.”

The "Words" sound great, but the "reality" of Obama and Chavez is quite different.

No matter what perverted form of government or economic system man tries or creates, when it collapses, capitalism will always be left standing among the ruins ..................
