How can he keep bringing up "I inherited a 1.2 trillion deficit from the previous administration", when he has already tripled that in only 9 weeks in office and projections are that it could go as high as 20 trillion before he is done. This is now HIS DEFICIT (to be paid by our children & grandchildren).
Shouldn't he have to give back his "bonus" (presidential pay & retirement) if he bankrupts the country?
Oh hell no, not a chance. His newest deal goes like this.
He'll take our tax money, "loan" it to "private investors" (the bankers that screwed this up in the first place) to buy up toxic assets. (for pennies on the dollar)
If the "private investors" get even crazier rich, well great, good for them.
If the "private investors" lose the money well that's OK, they don't have to pay it back.
All the while we keep paying for the "loan" with our taxes.
And he is so proud that he gave 95% of Americans a $13/week tax cut. He fails to mention that those same Americans lost 40-50% of their retirement accounts. I don;t think $13/week makes up for that.
Did anybody catch what he said about changing the mortgage tax deduction rate? Once again he is punishing those who work hard to buy a house and get the mortgage tax break that has always been a "benefit" for homeowners.
He gives money to you in one hand ($13/week tax cut) and takes it out of your other hand (reducing the amount you can deduct on your taxes for mortgage & charity). He is slicker than "slick Willy".
It reminds me of when i was a kid, my brother gave me a box of marbles to play with for free! i thought how generous was that.Until he won them all back off me and made me buy them back off him with my pocket money.
My dad told me a story about when he was a teenager and he had a younger sister and brother he had to look after from time to time. He said one day he baught a nice little toy train and a toy boat. He came home to give the toys to them. His little sister was older than the little brother so she got to pick which toy she would rather have. She saw the train and jumped up and down clapping her little hands and said "Oh, I'd like the train! I'd like the train!" So my dad paused for a second and said "No, you get the boat." And he gave the train to his little brother. LOL
Well, I think that was kinda mean.....he should've given the train to the little sister......that probably broke her heart. Hey flubbles....I used to play marbles too, when I was a kid, and I was pretty good at it. I bet if you and I were kids, and we got to playin' marbles....I think I would probably win all of your marbles too! "LOL"!! Just joking with you......but I was really good at playing marbles.....my brother and I had quite a collection of marbles. Anyways.....I'm wondering why so many people are picking on Obama.....I don't think he's been president long enough to do any more damage to this country. If I'm wrong...please correct me.
