Good God! And if he hadn't you'd have been blurting what you have been blurting all along. That Obama doesn't compromise of anything ever. Or don't you remember those words of yours.
I happen to be very angry that he has just to try and pacify the whining Teapublicans. He gives you what you want and then you "blast" him, you do remember that word blast don't you?, for doing it. He compromises and then you demean him for it. Skytso!

Someone pick SeenItBefore up off the floor and give her a washcloth or something. Good grief!
When you calm yourself down a bit I'd sure love to hear what you think Obama has given us, aside from a headache.

How did he spend 6 trillion all by his self. That was the statement made, that he spend 6 trillion by himself. How did he spend 6 trillion by himself? Now answer it and stop with your right wing, faux news bull shit.

Its as simple as that. Just answer the f'n question.

Geesh! Obama spend more money on a golf outing With Tiger Wood's than what it cost's for one year of White House tour's, and people complain about the president shutting of tours of the house that belongs to the citizens.
Go figure!

Right...and he and Mrs. O take separate vacations and fly their 14 year old daughter to New York to dine in fancy restaurants with some of her friends (and her Secret service detail and the parents of her friends). They fly AF1 around the country like it's the family station wagon. I wonder how many furlows that wasted money might have prevented?
Face it, the emperor wants the poor average joe schmuck to suffer while he and his family live high on the hog all the while telling the rest of us how we have to make cuts and sacrifices. Chicago politics at its finest: you piss me off, I find as many ways as I can to make you suffer.

Yes, this definitely reads "paybacks" by a Chicago street organizer.

I think they were hoping the public would be outraged at the GOP, when in fact most educated people understand it's just Obama throwing a hissy fit and shouting "If I can't be happy no one can!".

This stunt definitely backfired and now he's taking some serious flack over it. His low-information support base won't care of course, as they think he's just naive and lacking knowledge :)

Have you totally forgotten that's what the REPUBLICANS have wanted? To reduce Medicare benefits. Or is it just that for your arguments sake you choose to ignore it.
The Republicans have been trying to eliminate Medicare since it's inception.

Get rid of it? They just want to fix it before the Dems run it into bankruptcy......

[cannonfodder]

And the Dems think they have the brains to run even a bigger gov. Get real people!

And if Republicans were truly concerned with saving Medicare from bankruptcy they would introduce and pass a bill that allowed Medicare to negotiate with drug companies for lower pricing just like the VA is allowed to do.

So the question becomes why haven't they? There is no way for us to truly know but from the evidence it could be argued they either want Medicare to go bankrupt or they don't want to hurt their campaign contributions and perks from the drug companies. Either way the result will be the same. Bankrupted Medicare. Which either way that happens their ultimate goal will be accomplished.

Then get us all the Congressional health care program........ Shit is free you know...... We can take it from the food stamp program, housing, utilities, and transportation....... should be good for the country to have free medical for everyone..... No one should make money to recoup R&D expenses..... In fact, we should not even have pharma make any money......

You are all about profit and there is no end to how that should be accomplished.

Your notion is that we should remove all laws, regulations and taxes and dangers of litigation that inhibit corporate profits and that will solve all the problems. That by doing so we will all end up in the corporate utopia.

Even, and especially, snake oil salesmen traveled all over to sell their products to their clients ya know. Are you getting what I mean Dr. Feelgood?

Cost for meds is high because the paperwork to submit to the govt costs "big pharma" more money to comply than the production of medicine.....

Did long before you "suggested" it. What I said I still stand by. You want to refute me provide the evidence. Your opinion has already proven unreliable.

Don't care what you think of my opinion. I am entitled to it whether you like it or not AND I am entitled to express it whether you like it or not. We are not a dictatorship, yet. I do notice, however, that you "say" you did it, but you won't admit that the Dems do it as well. No surprise there. The only evil in this country, according to you, is conservatives, Republicans, and business. SSDD
