It is hard to predict how much harm Obama will do.

Obama's tax increases are going to be a problem, and are one of the major factors in the current market turmoil. A really big tax increase combined with the inflationary policies at the Federal Reserve would be mimicking the US policies that led to stagflation in the 1970's, although the lack of wage and price controls might allow us to escape with less damage this time around.

You won't get an argument here.

Obama's global warming policies have the potential to cripple the US economy, but if he actually passes them, the republicans would win in a landslide in 2012 even if they nominate another Bush.

The eco-terrorism goes on in the DNC. I wonder how the DEMS are going to explain to the working class (and UNIONS) that they aren't going to produce more jobs because because of the global kabaal they got us into?

Nationalized Health Care will cause some significant problems, but most will be long term issues, not short term problems, so passing this will not be as big of a problem over the next 4 years.

We wouldn't need natl. healthcare. Instead people should be fighting for jobs WITH benefits. What's wrong with this picture?

Obama's trade policies remain a big question mark. Hopefully he will not push major protectionism. My best guess is that we get into some more trade disagreements over the next few years, but nothing to terrible.

How about stop calling it protectionsim & start calling it rebuliding our nation & our industry base back up again? How about making OUR NATION prosper with our own hands instead of the paper tiger lie we've been fed all these years?

From a foreign policy standpoint Obama seems to be moving towards the Bush policies, although I remain concerned that he will look the other way while Iran builds a few nukes.

From a foreign policy POV how about the problem we are going to have if OBAMA decides to make all the illegals naturalized ???? Not to mention the cost!!!! Not to mention how much more we AMERICANS are going to lose!!!!






In the end most thinking Americans will realize they bought into a lie that OBAMA was this great savior & DEMS were for the little guy only to find out that it will never be more than politics as susal & that even tho they didn't like REPS they will know who was being honest with them.

I predict that that will be the craziest thing I read all week.
Bush and the REP was honest, oh man thats funny!!laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh



This was a perfect example of my prediction! whoa

About the protectionism issue.

I personally am a supporter of free trade on both sides, with "friendly" countries.

I don't like when countries attempt to manipulate a supposedly free trade agreement to their advantage.

An reasonably good example of truly free trade on both sides, is the trade between the USA and Canada. Each side has few restrictions on trade between these two countries, and each side tends to export that which they are better at producing, and import that which the other country is better at producing for the advantage of all.

The US makes it much more difficult to extract Oil and Natural Gas, while Canada makes it much easier to do so. This results in the US gaining access to oil and natural gas at lower prices from Canada, to the benefit of both. Canada has much more restrictions and limitations on the development of new medical treatments. The US is much more friendly to the development of new expensive medical treatments, and thus the US develops far more new medical treatments, and then exports these to Canada, to the benefit of both.

Oh you mean like what the DEMs did to any REP initiative...scare mongering? Bush bashing...it didn't work.

OTOH... facts ARE facts & we all know that DEMS take no responsiblity for anything or they would have been voted out of office as well. So much for their own voters holding them accountable and all that. Right?

I do want to see OBAMA succeed. That might mean throwing out all the LIBS in two years though. Can you handle that?

Oh so is this what we are to expect...more GOP bashing instead of holding DEMS feet to the fire to see if they can actually govern.

Get off the Palin bigot bashing...she has nothing at all to do with congress.
