Barrack Obama is trying to run a country with NO EXPERIENCE!!

Well we''ve already seen what happens when someone tries to run it with no intelligence or common sense. How on earth could Obama be any worse? Name a single issue that Bush ''handled'' that isn''t worse now.

Troutfisher: Do you remeber the Amnesty bill? Do you remeber Bush & Kennedy''s education bill? Do you remeber campaign reform to cut back on the amount of money spent on elections [which Obama appears to have destroyed]?

Yeah, those of us who work for a living are "freeloaders".

You''ve probably never done an honest days work in your life and have done nothing but convince the tinybrains that they should work for your benefit.

Well my intention is to tax you till you squeal little piggy.

Get ready to pay your debt to society,

Au contraire,
Our Dear Leader Obama is getting old Clinton has-beens and guys who have been US Senators since the 1970''s to be in his cabinet.
He''ll have all kinds of Democrat Washington insiders helping him run the county... into the ground.

That''s Change for ya!

I am hopeful that McCain will not be a factor in the next election. He and Bush tried to work with Democrats and look what it got them.

Will the media be able to avoid looking at Obama now that he is president? They found out more about Joe the Plumber than the Messiah.

You''re so right!!! Just look at where we got with Bush these past 8 years, manufactured war in Iraq, over 4000 dead troops, over 600,000 dead Iraqi civilians, over 2 million displaced, 10 billion a month for Iraq, we owe China over 500 billion, along with everything else, the taxpayers are now footing a 759 billion bail out, jobs are in the tanker and we still haven''t gotten Bin Laden.

Bush the leader, he never had a business he couldn''t run into the ground.

No one is obligated to support this man''''''''s presidency. We can vote with our pocketbooks. Sell your stock, buy only foreign cars, and fire all left wing employees. See you in four years.

Fighting a repressive Marxist regime is all about putting country first. The similarity between the "Hitler Youth" and "Obama Kids" is remarkable. Just as jews did not recognize the threat of Hitler, so they do not recognize the threat of obama. Those who cannot remember the past........

A bigger similarity is between Hitler and the Bush wanna be Hitler! (as long as he''s the dictator).

""No one is obligated to support this man''s presidency. We can vote with our pocketbooks. Sell your stock, buy only foreign cars, and fire all left wing employees. See you in four years. By FreeFla"

This is the ultimate example of cutting off your nose to spite your face. We are in a time of crisis - and what all Americans need to do is to help move the country forward. Obama will be the President, and whether you like it or not we need to keep Americans working, support American businesses, and join the American President to help climb out of the hole that we are in today.

That does not mean giving up your values, but it does mean being part of the solution, not the problem. People like Freefla will only cause the Republicans and conservatives to be frozen out of the process %u2013 and make it that much easier for extremists on the OTHER side to push through their own agenda.

Benjamin Franking said so well, %u201CWe must all hang together, or we will surely all hang separately%u201D. That has never been truer than it is right now. It is time for everyone to grow up.

The current tax structure is already a form of welfare. As one of the "Henry"s, my "group" makes up 2.3% of the population and already pays 17% of the total taxes. Under Obama there will be 4 million Americans paying 40% of all taxes. There rest are Democrats and freeloaders. Welcome to Russia

Another cBSnews Poll.

Isn''t this the same poll that had the Dear Leader winning by 14%?
They probably asked the same Democrats for this poll.

Another outstanding report from CBS. It''s right up there with the article "How the Obama Presidency can win over the media. If we weren''t facing such troubling times it would almost be funny. For the last 8 years. we have read endless reports on how suffering the American people were under the Bush Presidency. Funny though, the economy didn''t start the down turn till the Dems took control of the house and Senate in 2006. You fools thought times were so bad these last 8 years. You ain''t seen nothing yet.
