Liberals like Obama have never been known to do anything productive or useful for the people.I keep wondering why people keep electing these liberals knowing they are only going to get less freedom and more taxes.

Obamas legacy so far....

Outspent Bush by 4 times and he hasn't even been there 6 months.

Added trillions to the national debt.

Record job loss including one month with over a million job losses.

Stimulus program has failed miserably and still hasn't created one job.

Total lack of respect from rogue nations who think he is a push over.

Spent millions on photo ops of Air force one,dinner in NYC,interviews with Jay leno,and trips to France all the while telling the American people we need to conserve and live with less.

If were going to tell stories then we need to make it even bigger.


Obama is Santa Claus, Tooth Fairy, Old man time,

Obama is to blame for Global Warming, All worldly wars, He is even the Grim Reaper in disguise so we need to blame him for all sickness, diseases,etc...

Obama is an alien in disguise sent to take over the world.

Obama is the anti christ sent to let the devil take over the world.

Come on make the fantasies worth it if you are going to tell them.slaphead

I'm seeing less and less Obama stickers on cars now days.Anyone who still supports this clown must be in deep denial.Even the liberals are starting to turn on him.

ohhh, why you people don't realize that NOTHING happened ever since the election?

Obama is no more than Bush. Same sh1t, different face.

There is absolutely NOTHING changed...matter as well kept Bush for another for 4 years... Obama, he has deceived you.

You Obama haters don't see how he is doing the same crap that Bush would do..

while you Obama lovers won't see how he hasn't done a damn thing, beside talking about himself, while everything is the same. A 100 day passed and not a damn thing changed.

If there's no difference, then there really shouldn't be any complaints from you or any other conservative.

:smile: I just want to point out that my comments are in regards to republican politicians and not republican voters.:smile:I used to be conservative but got let down tremendously when I seen America get wrecked,and then I went to college and got liberalized.laughI admit that a lot of what the republican party sells sounds good (on a bumper sticker).:smile:But when you put it into practice it is actually cruel and deceitful.:smile:Its an excuse to hurt people in need ,and to exclude those who dont fit with their plans.:smile:I cant think of anything more satanic than that.glassesI proudly admit that i am a liberal.drinkerIm not an "independent".:smile: I also respect those who openly admit what they truly are instead of saying they are "independent".:smile: Pick a side! drinker I respect Gio for picking a side like I have and sticking to it.:thumbsup:


Largely agree, Mirror. And would like add to that the "they're all crooks" and the "all politicians suck" crowd are largely just avoiding any serious thought about who they should vote for or what policies they should support. An easy cop out. Less stress on the gray matter.

For the record, I am a life long Democrat in the moderate to liberal range.



don't complain to me...:smile:

Just don't mix me with the rest...I'm real conservative and I don't like what Bush did in the past 8 years either.

All Obama did so far is to hook up a bunch of banksters (gangsters) to have fun playing golf from the bailout money, trying to regulate everything down to the color of our underwear, instead of bringing the troops home he sends them to Afghanistan for who knows how long.
I can't think of a single thing that got better with Obama. Unless I'm missing something, everything is just like it was before with more laws and regulations against free trade, more restrictions , more taxes , higher gas prices.

What fairy tale book do you come up with this stuff from? There is a single thing in there that is either correct or can at least be substantiated. I'm not a big Obama fan, never was, but gezz at least get something from within reality if you're going to criticize.

He had always said he was going to focus on Afghanistan. His opinion was that we were wasting resources in Iraq and that the soldiers were sent in without clear objectives and that it was the wrong war to fight.

As for the job loss, it depends on who's research one agrees with. There are some experts who say that it has saved a lot of jobs and some say the job loss would've slowed down regardless, and others who say more needs to be spent faster in order to do good. This is the very reason arguing politics is really just a futile exercise, all the stats and polls can be interpreted in many ways, and the studies/reports one believes are the ones that agree with their personal opinions.

Bush did do some damaging things in regards to NIH grant funding, and since I work in the science field doing molecular biology research I wasn't a big fan. Obama is much more willing to fund science research. Before Bush, grants were being funded at about a 30% rate towards the end of his administration it dipped into single figures.

I understand and respect the real conservative positions on some things but the expectation that those in power are going to limit their own power? It's weird, they speak of all the great things about the capitalist system (and correctly so a lot of the time) but the capitalist system works on greed, everyone out to get theirs. So this line of logic seems so contrary to the conservative position of voting people into power who are going to abdicate that power. Liberals also have some weird logic going on, but a post about all this would probably be too long.

You are right thinking that people thinking that the politicians will curb there own power, that will never happen, people must the power of the vote to stop anyone that abuses their power.I am not a fan of government funding of anything, because that means more money out of my pocket, since I do pay federal taxes.. If research companies what money, they should raise it or sell their product like any other business..our government spends tons of money on stupid things, and we continue to vote the idiots into office..

It's academic research. We don't produce a product to sell, we write science papers, some academics work with a particular drug but usually they research pathways of cancer and things like that and then others use that research to produce therapies and medications. It's very dangerous to simply have companies with a profit motive doing all their own research.

Drugs that are invented have only a small window to produce profit until others are allowed to produce the generic version at a savings to the consumer. So what some unscrupulous people have done, is produce shoddy research with some new drug they say is better, when all they did was make a minor change with no real physiological difference. Merck and Schering Plough recently got into trouble over falsifying data about their "new" cholesterol drug.

You have a good point about that, legitimate research to a point is ok, but studying gay mens sexual activities in Brazil and crap like that are a waste of my money..

yeah I have to agree. If they'd stop with the BS and the over taxation the economy would recover of it's own accord. But we all know they won't so we have to look to see what we can get back. Unfortunately when they do stuff like these huge bail outs all the do is give more money to the same people who already have more than enough.

Our inner cities are failing day after day because of all the "Programs" to improve the lives of the citizens, so if you do the same things to the nation that they are doing in the cities, what are you going to expect?? Failure on a national scale!
