Who is holding back the two trillion dollars that should be put back in our society? "where it came from" The GOP and wall street are trying to break the American people down during President Obamas term. They will do anything to make him look bad! When they keep saying "NO NO NO" to anything he trys to do. We the people will make a comeback in 2012 and get rid of the paid for leaders. And I agree with the political contributions coming only from the voting public. Also $100.00 limit sounds sencible
you are saying what I have been saying all along,I hope that the American people will wake up and see the truth before the next election day,if they don't I an afraid there will no longer be an America as we know it for the average American citizen
Hmm... I thought elephants had a good memory. Evidently the republicans don't live up to their mascot. Lies seem to attract more followers than the truth, but the truth always comes out.
Standard plot, take funds from women, infants and children, health care and the EPA to pay for their piddling excuse for the budget cut they are screaming about. Billioniares have no need for public health care and live in airconditioning. No need for clean air or water. They drink champagne. And the tea party suckers that just entered politcis are totally fooled.
Oh, my! Republicans blaming others--how original. Excuse me, but I've never know any conservative to take responsibility for anything negative even when they're almost entirely responsible, but they're more than willing to take responsibility for the postive even if they had nothing to do with it.
lol, you read the lizard's play book, written by Carl Rove. Take the bad things you support and call them strenghts. Prentend they are good things not bad. Repeat the lies as often as possible (ala Chaney). Just who was it said that the ignorant masses will sooner believe a huge lie than a small one? Hint, it was a German with an odd stash. Rove seems to be channeling that evil.
HOW DOES OUTSOURCING affect the our economy. SIMPLE. When a job is outsourced an AMERICAN loses the job. Look around you, companies have closed down and relocated overseas. How many of your friends and neighbors are unemployed. COUNTLESS. It's all because of OUTSOURCING. GREED of the rich REPUBLICANS who own or head these businesses don't care if the poor or middle class AMERICANS have a job just as long as they get richer.
How can we ever recover from the recession? Answer is never unless we stop outsourcing and buy only "MADE IN USA" products or when the third world country's wages and cost of living equals ours. Only then can we compete in cost for the products. Our only advantage is the label "MADE IN USA".
So you poor and middle class REPUBLICANS stop being like a KOOL AID DRINKER. Don't be mesmerized by the present day JIM JONES called the REPUBLICANS before they OUTSOURCE your job and be UNEMPLOYED. DON'T BE GULLIBLE, THINK.
With more than a $14 trillion national debt, and projections that we will add another $1.65 trillion yo it this year - spending cuts are the only sane position. How can anyone seriously think that the nation should continue with massive irresponsible federal over spending?
We are on a runaway train, and the curve of economic collapse is ahead. President Obama's debt commission stated that what we are doing is unsustainable. How can anyone think that these small (less than 2% of the budget) cuts in federal spending is wrong??? Actually, we need large spending cuts to avoid a disaster. We would need to cut $500 billion each year for 3 years, just to begin to break even. I doubt that will happen, but we have to get this insanity under control.
And you and others crying incessantly about the DEBT Over 10 TRILLION under 3 REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS alone) continue to support the 2011 TEA PARTY REPUBLICAN proposals to add over $3 TRILLION to the debt over the next 10 years. Reversing the Democratic cuts to pay for the 2003 REPUBLICAN ENTITLEMENT called MEDICARE PART D and TAX CUTS NOT OFFSET BY SPENDING CUTS.

Interesting point I had not noticed before. Good job. We need watch towers with snipers and land mine. But the border is only the front line when you have 12 million infiltrators. You have to jail the employers to make any inroads into this criminal population. And most of them are repubs. Like that will happen soon.
For starters, I wouldn't consider any kind of conversation with the Republicans about the budget until the IRS recieves a listing of all offshore tax evasion felony bank accounts and balances for December 31, 2010 can be verified and with on an acknowledgement form that recognizes that a complete history of that and any other tax evasion accounts will be made available to the IRS by April 1, 2011, accounted for in full to their date of origin and all back taxes and interest are paid or arrangements made for the complete payment of all taxes due with the IRS by April 15th to the satisfaction of the IRS, or the IRS will take full action as is normally taken, notarized, to reach the IRS by April 1, 2011. And that's just for starters.
Once the IRS can offer a figure of the monies to be taken in for taxes for the year 2010 and all back taxes to be deposited to the US Treasury, THEN, the President can make an appropriate budget for the year 2011, in consideration of the manifest increase in collected taxes, deficit paid, and allowances for state budgets allocated.
In the meantime, the American budget will work on the assumption that the taxes and interest on those tax evasion accounts will be paid in full, to afford to begin the establishment of universal pre-school for the school year 2011-2012, all grants and funding for state colleges and universities will be fully funded, all grants for medicine, mental health, education and other funding that was killed to save funds for the wealthy will be put back, and monies to be given to corporations that have been making a profit for the last 4 years, paying corporate executives bonuses over 5% of their annual salaries, paying executive salaries over 20 times their average employees' income, and/or paying a dividend over 3% the average employees' income will cease and decist until a time that the corporation shows an actual before tax loss.
All employers, including the government Federal, State, City/Town, and Municipal will pay into Social Security for their employers. They may elect to add to their employees' Social Security but in no way will they be allowed to replace the employees' Social Security, that no employee will ever be caught without credits for disability should that misfortune happen to the employee at any time, whether full or part time employees.
At no time in the future will any resident be in a situation of abject homelessness or without food for themselves or their dependents. That is in contempt of the purpose behind the laws presented in the American Constitution, and if it is happening anywhere in the United States or it Territories it needs to be addressed first by the police or social services to investigate and then be assigned a case worker to address the incident of this event and then to remediate the situation immediately. THERE SHALL BE NO HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD WITHOUT APPROPRIATE EMPLOYMENT AND SUITABLE INCOME WITHOUT ALL NECESSARY BENEFITS NECESSARY FOR ADEQUATE LIVING NECESSITIES FOR A DECENT AND HUMANE LIFE WITHIN THE BORDERS OF THE UNITED STATES AND ITS COMMONWEALTHS. ANY PERSON KNOWING OF A PERSON, PERSONS, OR FAMILY IN JUST NEED MAY ANNONYMOUSLY CALL THE 800 NUMBER--------.
And with all my education and experience, this is what America means to me, and John Boehner and his Rich and Wealthy greedy and Avariced followers can go and make another country, because we the giving and sharing, the working hard when you can and the caring for the sick when you are well, and they will take care of you when you need it, that sounds an awful lot like Communism, was called the Plymouthe Bay Colony, and because of the sharing of the work and the peaceful moments, the hope and the faith, and the common future of all, this is where we came to have a "thanks giving" from which the core principles of America were decreed, and because of which we are here still, and not ruled by the Spanish from Mexico and the Islands of the Caribbean to our South, because of the faith of the these pilgrims who shared a village and wove a country, we have America, and let no person believe they are above the other, that they need not fish or plant or hunt or bake or wash the clothes or gather the berries, because we all came here on one boat, equal in the eyes of the Lord, and still equal in the eyes of the Lord, and for as long as we remember this, we shall live in peace and harmony, and when there are ill we take them to bed and care for them, and when we are ill they take us to bed and care for us, and only in this wave did we survive and that we shall always survive, and so the Lord said this place will be like the land that was lost, fertile and green with forests and rivers and freedom and harmony shal reign, and it shall be named America of the many people and they will bring only their best with them when they come to its shores and be good to one another and share and in that way America will become great.
As much as I agree with you, we all know that "ain't happenin".
Nothing would serve this country better than what you have stated but in reality it will be done as soon as then convict the Bush regime for invading an unarmed country and held responsible for the deaths of over 4500 soldiers, the hundreds of thousands of troops injured and the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians maimed and murdered.
In 1995, one of the first things that the Republicans went after was the IRS. I guess Republican tax cheats were tired of being audited. This is typical socio pathology on the part of the Republicans, "they made us do it". Never take responsibility for the debt that increased more than $2 trillion during the years 2003-2006 when you ran the White House and Congress, blame it on everyone else.
Won't be too much longer, we will have the whole country looking like Wisconsin, long over due.
People are unemployed, going through foreclosure, no jobs in sight and no one is making an effort to fix this, the GOP hasn't made a desision on anything I can see, just throwing mud against the wall to see where it will stick.
Guess it will take the power of the people to get things done the right way, these guys are useless.
How will protesting create the $3.6 billion budget shortfall in Wisconsin? People in out nation are free to speak their minds, but states and the federal government are in deep fiscal trouble. We can not pretend things are not so, and we can no longer continue to over spend public funds as business is usual. Things are no longer usual. Hard decisions have to be made.
The problem is the 12 million criminal immigrants taking blue collar jobs and not paying taxes. Well, at least a significant part of the problem anyway. Why do the big city high schools have a 50% drop out rate? They see that there are no jobs for them after graduation. Not every one is college material (like W for instance) Half of them will end up in jail which is what the GOP wants. They become life long exploitable labor.

It will never happen. Good points though.
This is a typical "small government in the money but HUGE government control in the personal liberties" conservative. Hypocrisy to the max!
People are unemployed, going through foreclosure, no jobs in sight and no one is making an effort to fix this, the GOP hasn't made a desision on anything I can see, just throwing mud against the wall to see where it will stick.
