Barack Obama

A vote for Ron Paul is not a vote for the Republican Party. Neither is a vote for Sarah Palin. Republicans have been trounced the last two major elections. And now they're going to be forced to vote against their buddies on Wall St. Mitch McConnell always looks like he just took a big dump in his pants. The face of the Republican Party.
You can bet Obama is going to expose Republican weaknesses in Sept/Oct while our boys start coming home from Arabistan and Stimulus dough gets spread around. What the Tea Party does means nothing. They are NOT the voice of the People.
The second half of Obama's first term will be interesting.

There's just nothing new with BO. The space industry is waiting to see how congress reacts to BO's changes in space policy. He had them waiting for his Apr 15th space speech at KSC. It was another dud. He says ok ok ok... I'll allow the Orion capsule to be built, but it will be launched unmanned to the space station and never used except as an emergency flight back to earth. Gee thanks. So far congress thinks his ideas suck, so I'm hoping they tell him to go on a long TLI with a short burn time.

Before Obama is done a lot of people are going to be out of Business, China is coming up in our rear view mirror and with their 1.3 billion people vs. our .3 billion people, they're going to do to us what we did to them. Houston, we have a problem. Just from an economic point of view, in fifty years we are going to be in trouble. No matter who's in charge.
When Tea Party Libertarians say STOP SPENDING, they're talking about NASA, I think. Aren't they?

Even conservative libertarians know a good investment when they see one. Investing in exploration usually returns new technologies and resources. After BO tried to can the constellation program House Representatives sent the Nasa administrator a letter telling him to cease all activities canceling constellation. That they were not in favor of it, and that it still needed their vote. Ron Paul was one of the signers of the document.

Government economic forecasters took a look at what national healthcare will do to us. They concluded it will not control costs as BO hoped and costs will actually rise. Is anyone surprised?

The report also projected that Medicare cuts could drive about 15 percent of hospitals and other institutional providers into the red, possibly jeopardizing access to care for seniors. Again is anyone surprised? BO & Pelosi told congress not to worry about the $trillion price tag. It will cut costs. Congress actually fell for it! What a bunch of fuckin amateurs.

PS... what's this latest buzz I hear about BO wanting power to take over any financial institution without any kind of review? Sounds like another step on the way to socialism.

You have Health Insurance, Right Tracy? Why? Because the Govt is funding Nasa to "pull a wall st" and justify itself as indispensible to America. The Govt pays for your Health Care. Did the forefathers endorse Nasa?
We'll see what National Health Care does, I hope it scapes all the human waste off the sidewalk and puts them to work, instead of drinking wine and going to taxpayer funded jails. I hope we're one step closer to Communist Health Care. You think the Insurance Companies don't come between you and your doctor? Health Care is not going to GET fucked up, healthcare IS fucked up. I got stories.
There are areas where Republicans and Democrats overlap, I make racist jokes but I defend ALL American's rights and that brings us to Illegal Immigration, one topic Obama doesn't want to tackle right before elections. It wouldn't bother me if they built a fifty foot wall between us and Mexico with machine guns and sniper rifles, and deported every dude that hung around Home Depot for daywork. Republicans and Democrats are fighting over the Hispanic Voting Bloc, and big business likes the fact that illegal immigrants will work hard for 5 bucks an hour. Buisnesses like the fact that mexicans buy beer, gas, food, rent. Me, I say make this a club witrh dues. There's nothing wrong with taxes and insurance. Just make sure people pay their fair share.

Even communists have to pay their bills. We are over $12 trillion in the red and cannot afford national health care.

Insurance companies have come between me and my doctor since Clinton.

Why just the Mexicans? You think just the Mexicans want work here? There's millions, billions? in the world who are under the poverty level, threatened by drug lords or dictators, etc, who would like to come to America. Why can't ALL of them come here without going through the immigration office before becoming an American? Tell me that???

Political discourse would be so much better if people actually used terms correctly instead of adopting them as soundbites for the purpose of whipping up the more ignorant among the citizenry (by which I mean most of the citizenry, by the way).
