    Mr. President, why should I care MORE about what Romney did with his money than what YOU do with mine? Do you think we are completely stupid? Your stimulus failed to do jack (*)(*)(*)(*) to help the average American and only served to keep Government workers employed. You blew over a billion dollars on solar companies that went Bankrupt, why in the blue hell would anyone listen to you on money?

    It's obvious to me you wouldn't know your ass from a burnt biscuit regarding anything financial.

    Well, there's a no (*)(*)(*)(*) sherlock moment if I've ever heard one.

    What exactly is your job, President Titanic?

    Well theres a surprise.

    If his job is to "clean up Bush's mess" i would like to know when he is going to start??? Ive been paying for his lavish lifestyle for 3.5 yrs now and all he has done is slide money over to his friends and say "(*)(*)(*)(*) you" to those of us who work hard to fund this country.

    If i hired an employee on a four year contract and he did nothing but play golf, take vacations, throw parties (on my (*)(*)(*)(*)ing dime) and blame his predecessor when everything turns to (*)(*)(*)(*), i certainly wouldnt renew his contract.

    Get ready to start talking about "how evil and maniacal President Romneys policies are."

    Obama did nothing more than stand back while Ben Bernanke and the Fed printed up billions of dollars to hand out to Wall Street firms (exactly what Bush started to do and what any other US president would do under the circumstances). What did he do after that? And who will clean up his mess? Romney will.

    This was his job.....

    Which he failed at miserably! So did Obama lie, make a mis-statement or a false statement?

    I almost blew a gasket today when I heard the CNN(!) commentator criticizing Obama for pushing Bain Capital into the main focus of his campaign. I had to look twice to make sure that Fox News wasn't on when she said that. :grin:

    Bain capital is in business to make money. It does so legally. It also has well known rich Democrats in their partnerships. So dishing them was pure stupidity.

    Oh, you mean like run up the American debt to $16 trillion and counting? Is that the clean up you are talking about? I think you liberals would be embarrassed over this joke of a president. He may be an honored Harvard grad with a law degree, but Obama couldn't balance his own check book. This is remedial math, get a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing clue, Romney has this community organizer beat hands down when it comes to balancing a check book, and our nation needs a person like Romney to keep this train from going over the cliff.

    For Obama to go after Bain is about all they have. And its weak. How many jobs did Obama cut during his restructuring of GM? How many dealerships were ordered closed? How many jobs gone? Obama's standing is far worse than Bain could even imagine. Bain used the legal structures of law and the time honored system of capitalism to clean up, close or disassemble businesses. Obama tripped up the bankruptcy system to give preference to unions and used government force to close dealerships and stomp on Toyota using government agencies to condemn them in order to drive customers to GM.

    You are absolutely correct, for two years he worked on Health Care,,,how the hell is that cleaning up a mess? The rest of the time he had a unlimited checking accountant and did a rather poor Bush imitation, while at the same time complaining about Bush's spending....
    Clinton was right, the guy is an amateur....

    I agree that Obama is a joke. But I think you overestimate Romney. Romney wants to cap government spending at 20% of GDP. Let's assume for the sake of argument that he is actually serious about implementing this type of plan, and not just lying to get votes. And let's also assume that the big government Tea Party and Liberal Congress actually vote to implement a plan to reduce the rate of growth of government.

    GDP is projected to be $19261.1 by 2016. (http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/Historicals Table 1.12) That means that under Romney's plan, government spending will be at $3.85 trillion by 2016. Compared that to Obama's current level of $3.6 trillion. Romney is promising to increase spending from current Obama levels by the end of his term.

    By voting for either of the two (I presume you're planning on voting for Romney), you're voting to increase government spending. At least Obama is honest about the fact that he wants to increase government spending. Romney is deceitful in that he tries to hide the fact that he intends to increase spending from current Obama levels.

    The man has been an embarrassment from the start, they elect a man with absolutely no experience, then throw in a Nobel peace prize just for the heck of it....or basically.....''Just because they can''

    I guess in a way he earned it, anybody that can convince a country he is fit to be President and bring people together while sitting in a Church that boasts black separatism has got to have something on the ball...

    I just didn't think that ball would cost us a Trillion dollars,,,dat's some Ball.....

    What I am doing now is silly because I'm responding to someone who doesn't even understand the post you are referring to.

    I love how they are trying to say Romney is unqualified to be president. Romney was more qualified after he was sworn in as governor of MA than Obama was.

    They did donate to Obama. So why is Obama taking their money if they are just there to kill jobs?

    I know, but at the time that's what we were first hit with. The guy runs on complaining about the spending, and first thing he does is spend a Trillion, then ignores the rest of his complaint about Bush,,,jobs. It's like he took the job based on one thing, and then did the exact same thing...ONLY WORSE!

    This time he is complaining that Romney screwed up with Bain, so what does he do? Takes money from Bain,,,it's like he is starting the same Nightmare all over again.....He complains about his rivals, then mimics them. The guy would make a great hand puppet.....
    Lets hope they do not dig up any Hookers in Romney's past........poor Michelle....:sad:

    This is a weak attempt by President Soetoro to defuse his dismal record of failure and mediocraty, by attacking Romney's record of success and business sense.
