What others are saying

  • Change?
    Well done. I've saved the list in a jpeg file and is now my new screen saver. Believe or not, there are many American and legal immigrants, like me, who can't believe what is happening. I'm looking forward to the 2010 elections, when I will be able to cast my first vote.
    Thank you for what you do, we will be watching closely what happens with the Fairness doctrine.
  • The LIBS, Commies, illegals, dead people and Obama
    Thank you for your input, COPYLEFT. You are part of the predicament this country faces now. Since when did illegals and dead people get to vote in our elections? ACCORN registered asked people to register more than once and some as many as 27 times. Obama is going to reward ACCORN with billions of our tax doolars for all of their illegal activity! It is because of you nitwit libs, the whole country is going to suffer more moral depravity and poverty than it ever has in the history of this country. My 401K took a nose dive after Obama was elected! By the time Obama gets through with a lot fo us, we won't have anything left in our retirement funds! Oh, do you think for a moment that the libs in Congress will lose any Medicare benefits when it comes time for them to need them? Not on your life! They are exempt from any kind of loss of benefits! So, you libs, if you are not a Congressperson, when you get old and sick, you are going to be in the same boat with the rest of us! I wish there was some way that the natural born conservative voters in this country could keep our money and our guns and the LIBS, illegals and such could have the "change" that Obama has been promising.
  • Yes, Take Back our Government!
    Mark Levin, Mark Davis and a few other radio talk show hosts were trying to tell the voters what Obama was all about for months before the election. Some voters don't care if this country goes down the tubes as long as they get their entitlements! Obama was a senator in one of the most liberal states in the U.S.! Forget that Obama is 1/2 Arab and 1/2 white. His mother is an atheist and his father is islamic. It is possible that he is not even a natural born citizen of the U.S.. Those files have been sealed to prevent the truth from being discovered. If he is a natural born U.S. citizen and he has nothing to hide, why were those records sealed? Hey, folks, by the time Obama is through raping our economy, our great, great great-grand children will still be trying to pay off the debt that Obama has put us under! We, voters who have any sense at all must mobilize and put conservatives in Congress, the House of Representatives and the Senate and take the seats that are coming up for grabs soon. Christians, we have to pray that God helps us turn this situation around and take back our country from the liberals! God also commands us to pray for those in power over us. I am praying for Obama.
  • Change
    You wouldn't be seeing any of this if Bush had'nt screwed up so royally! He blew our economy dropping bombs on Iraq. The only benefactors were the fat-cats at Haliburton* and the big oil companies.

    *Among others.

    Pardon the spam-fest, but I have yet to hear any radio talk-show host bring up the names of the architects of the present economic crisis.

    These 2 left-wing elitist provocateurs were in close consort with the Clinton's during his administration.

    Do your own research and prepare for your hair to be curled.

    AmericanThinker.com has plenty of concrete information on the matter. As does FrontPage Magazine and FreeRepublic.com

    The truth is out there for all to see.

    For the politically savvy, the marxists are rather blatant in their schemes.
  • our present administration
    WHAT a sad state of affairs -
  • OBAMA'S GAFFS
    NEAL, PETE FROM DAYTON IS FULL OF BS. FIRST OF ALL, CHECK OUT MY COMMIE BROTHERS HEALTH CARE BILL HR676. JOEL IS EMPLOYED BY REP. CONYERS,D.-MICH.THE REALITY OF THIS IS THAT PEOPLE, INCLUDING MY BROTHER NOW HAVE A
    PRESIDENT IN OFFICE ELECTED BY PEOPLE STUPID ENOUGH TO BELIEVE HIM. WE ARE GOING TO GET THE GOVERNMENT THAT THE POPULAITION HAS LET HAPPEN. CONSERVATIVES MUST TAKE TO THE STREETS AND SEND A MESSAGE TO THE NORTHEAST AND TO THE WESTCOAST THAT THE SILENT MAJORITY MUST RAISE UP.
    THE MOST SHOCKING THING IS THAT ROYAL, AS BRIGHT AS HE IS, GOT SUCKED INTO OBAMAMANIA. I JUST HOPE AFTER 100 DAYS WE HAVE A NATION LEFT THAT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MAOIST CHINA, WITH A BIT OF CASTRO THROWN IN FOR TASTE.
  • The List
    After seeing this list, PeBO could be a modern day Joe Btfplk of Li'l Abner comics.
  • Change you can believe in...
    Hey, don't forget the social spending in the Spedulus Bill will be recurring spending that will have to be absorbed in future years budget. You don't think these libs will give up all these gains do you?
  • The List
    Neal--

    Keep this list going! Let's see what it looks like in 1, 2, and 4 years.
  • For all you talking of bailing on the USA...
    ...Don't let the door smack you in the rear on the way out. I've got more respect for the pondscum-swilling moonbats like copyleft than I do you. If you'd let the likes of them run you out you're no more fit to live here than they are, which isn't at all. Think about that a moment before you tuck tail and run.
  • Uh--copyleft
    You're forgetting something, the dumbocrats have been in charge for the last 4 years...THEY have messed us up. Now with komrad obamaaaaaaa in charge, it's going to get worse..oh, that's right, he can do no wrong can he?
  • Bush's Fault!
    Neal, you know this is Bush's fault and always will be. Eight years from now when we're all taking our Chinese lessons, the crowd that elected The Messiah will still be blaming everything on W. It's as close to a sure thing as exists.
  • Racist?
    Your "burnt toast" comment might be interpreted by some as racist.
  • Sorry Mr Evans,

    But if you look at the facts Bush warned of an empending financial meltdown caused by Fannie and Freddie. I'm pretty sure the Democrats wwere and are still running these programs. Check out the attached URL that the mainstream media won't tell you. Copy and paste it onto your browser and then learn that Congress runs this country and Congress has it screwed up.

  • @By Rob Evans @ 02/18/09 10:56:42 AM
    LOL. Glad someone called BS on this. Tho I would just say the selling of senate seats took place on Bush's watch and leave it at that.
  • Change on the way
    Don't forget about the efforts to disarm honest, law abiding citizens.
  • Deep Recurring Thought
    Hey, we should have had the stimulus package every year for the last 8 years. Just think how much the economy would be, and how rich we would all be. Why does the economy have to be bad to do this?
  • WOW!
    As for a couple of the regular LIBS ( you know who you are) these folks are not serious, their only arguement is the same old tired remarks. Did Bush do things I didn't like? Your damn skippy. However, up until it was clear Obama would win, my 401k was doing good. Bush and several other people tried to warn Congress about the housing problem, (oh sorry, brought truth into this). Get off the old arguements, it only makes you look stupid!

    When the Republicans were in charge they started out great, then 9/11 and they used that spend like drunken saliors.

    Now hold on, for you LIBS that like to talk about the last eight years, Dems had control of the congress and did nothing to correct any of it, not to mention that under their watch gas more then doubled in price. Then in 2008 a majority of voters (not the majority of Americans, big difference)not only gave LIBS control of congress again, but gave us Obama. Why? Because they made all these speeches about how they were going to clean things up and get rid of the so called last 8 years. How? By doubling goverment spending AGAIN! By raising taxes. By making rules and breaking them as soon as they could.

    Folks, pointing finger time is over. Some of you think that this is all leading to some pie in the sky life style.

    Two thoughts:

    1) Have you thought about it, most of this stimulas doen't kick in till 2010. Now over the years, the market has and will again correct itself and this is not differant. Will you tell me that it was the GRAND STIMULAS PLAN that did it? I thought we needed it now, not in two years.

    2) I have been working hard and doing what is right and looking forward to retirement. Now it looks as if I may have to put that of indefinitely. WHY? Because congress did not take to heart the warnings of many people and my 401k in now a 101b.

    I have looked at and read the stimulas bill. Take away the talk radio and tv hype and the politics and I don't care who you are, if you don't choke on the stupidity of it then you deserve what we are all about to recieve!
  • Change
    Thank you Chimpy Mc EmptySuit!
  • Liar in Chief
    This commie's lies make Clinton look like a choir boy. All the "brilliant" talking heads and pundits keep repeating that the good Comrade Chairman will have to govern as a moderate or risk losing reelection.

    Folks, this dedicated Marxist has no concerns about being reelected. He has been ordered by his puppet masters, Soros & co., to ram through this totalitarian Marxist agenda before most people sober up from the Kool-Aid and begin to realize what's going on. The blueprint for this agenda is "Rules for Radicals" by that self-proclaimed commie and Obama hero, Saul Alinsky. Reelection won't be necessary if he enacts the plan in 4 years. He will simply cancel or rig the next election like Hugo Chavez and declare himself dictator.

    I can't wait to see this web site that he touted which is supposed to account for "every penny" of the Porkulus that is spent. What happened to the campaign promise to put every bill that is before congress on the web for 5 days review before it is voted on? Transparency? "Change we can believe in"? If anyone buys what this crafty snake oil salesman is peddling, they are a completely clueless idiot.

    "There was a young commie named Barry,
    Who conspired with Nancy and Harry,
    To make pols on the Hill,
    Rush through the bill'
    That most of us find truly scary"
  • Gotcha
    Keep drinkin the kool-aid Rob. The fact that you even try to "defend" the list says volumes about how you enjoy big daddy Government. When in the hell are you people going to wake up!! This guy is going to ruin us!! One more thing, Please stop refering everything your inept pres. has done back to President Bush. We could go back further than that if you want. I dont know about the rest of you but i want my Bush back! Now!
  • NAU
    Lou Dobbs and Glenn Beck are way ahead of the curve on what is truly going on here. Be prepared to deal with the coming of a new currency and the formation of the North American Union. The most perfect conditions ever have been created here for the creation of the NAU. When will we finally wake up?
  • Obama
    Yeah, but doesn't he look cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I wonder if any of the layoffs involve people who voted for Obama??
  • Barry's change
    I thought I would add a few tidbits that were omitted from your list of "the chosen one's" accomplishments so far.

    Not only is the Dow at a ten year low, but it continues to fall and has dropped more than 2000 points since his inauguration.

    The labor department chief’s husband is also a tax cheat. (Let's keep in mind that all of these tax cheats were not made to pay ANY penalties, or answer to the IRS, or the people for that matter.)

    Promised 5 days for “the people” to view all new legislation online before it is voted on. (Riiiiight.)

    Nationalizing the automotive and banking industries, with more to come no doubt.

    And have you noticed how he’s just LOVING flying all over the place on Air Force One? Still in campaign mode, ‘cause he can’t lead!

    P.S. I'm unemployed. Can I have your "change" please? Just kidding. I'm not a liberal, I'll work for my money.
  • If we could
    Good news is that Idol will be over soon,People magazine delivers once a week, and Oprah is on once a day. If we can coordinate a message to the dumb masses sometime in between all that, maybe they will wake up.
    By the way, that was sarcasm.
  • Change list
    I don't think Pelosi used the Fairness Doctrine when crafting the stimulus bill. Reportedly, House GOP members were shut out. Liberals, such as Rob Evans, live in that alternate universe where bipartisanship only goes one way, perjury means jail for only Republicans, paying taxes is optional for Dem fat cats, and dissent is patriotic if it comes from Democrats berating Bush, but hate speech if comes from talk radio berating Obama. Democrats don't need to look up hypocrisy in the dictionary. They can just look in the mirror.
  • No.
    * A trillion-dollar plus federal deficit

    Not a change. Have you forgotten who doubled the debt in the last eight years?

    * Over one-half of voters relieved of any federal tax liability

    You're forgetting payroll taxes. Obama's tax credits aren't going to completely cancel those out.

    * Government mandated limits on executive compensation

    As the way it should be if they're getting taxpayer money.

    * Three failed attempts and still no Commerce Secretary

    How is that "change" or bad in any way?

    * The census gets politicized

    No evidence of such yet, though it's possible now (as it was before.)

    * Increasing home loan mortgage rates across the board

    If you're talking about interest rates, they're as low as I've seen them in a while. Bankrate.com lists 5.27%

    * Millions of Americans made dependent on government

    Unsubstantiated.

    * Welfare checks become "tax cuts."

    If you don't work and pay income/payroll taxes, you don't get one, so yes, it's a tax cut.

    * Move to silence critical talk radio shows

    The only "moving" they've done is made petitions saying they don't like it.

    * Selling Senate seats

    Blagojevich was impeached and there's no evidence or anyone even claiming that Burriss paid him for it. (Only that he was asked for a donation. Not saying he's clean, but the seat wasn't sold.)

    * More government workers, not private sector jobs

    Increases in government workers is not a change.

    * Annual welfare checks for middle income families

    You mentioned that before, and it's only for people paying payroll/income taxes, so it's a tax cut.
  • Health Care
    Neal,

    Don't forget the provisions for health care inside the "bailout bill". Remember Obama brought up the nurse's inability to read doctor's handwriting as a reason to make all medical records electronic.

    Well, now we can see the next step. The federal government will be able to dictate what medical procedures we can or cannot get. Tom Daschle (as he said before running off into the sunset) believes older people need to accept their conditions and not overburden the health care system with "unneccessary" tests and what-not. If you've got a little pain, that just comes with age. Just "accept it".
  • Change you can believe in
    Well said - take a page in the USA today or any national publication and publish your comments. Sums it up - the word needs to get out!

    Keep up the pressure
  • What water are you drinkin, Copy?
    Copyleft wrote: ""Good thing we have sensible, SANE people running things now. There's hope for America yet!""

    You can't be serious.....if the screw-ups of the Obama people weren't so serious, this would almost be funny
  • Change That Makes You Sick
    Our 1st Socialist President is using the free ride the public is giving him ("Give him a chance---Repubs had 8 years to screw things up") to the MAX!

    Until we can wake America up to the fundamental changes Obama is quickly instituting, we're all SCREWED!

    Next up: Fairness Doctrine
    Then: Nationalize Banks and Brokerage
    After that: HillaryCare
    Then Comes: Converting Foreclosed Homes into public housing.

    And then: Full Government ownership of US Auto Industry.

    Next: Government Control of the Airways.
  • just a correction/addition
    - And THAT in less than a month!
  • "American Dream"
    Be careful when someone like Obama mentions "American Dream", as his meaning may diverge widely from the concept in your head.

    The collectivist termites were loosed into the American woodwork, dating from the early 1800's. These early Utopians were pretty much communists who wanted to convince others by reason. They of course were later replaced by communists who wanted to convince others with clubs and guns.

    See Flynn, Daniel J., A Conservative History of the American Left

    See Goldberg, Jonah, Liberal Fascism

    Both are great, if depressing reads.

    v/r,

    -- Bud
  • Got Socialism?
    Wanna know Obama's political platform and where he plans on taking our country?
    READ:
    http://laissez-fairerepublic.com/naziprog.htm
  • Your logic?
    Alice borrows $995 from Bob. Bob tells Alice to stuff it, and starts hanging out with Cindy instead. Cindy borrows $6 from Bob. Alice tells everyone that Bob caused Cindy to lose over $1000.

    While it's possible to look at it in a way where it would be technically true, it's not exactly right.
  • Much worse than...
    Yes, this administration has turned out to be much worse than I ever imagined. Batten down the hatches!
  • Yep, the Bush Depression caused a lot of damage
    It's going to take a lot of work to fix all the messes he caused.

    Good thing we have sensible, SANE people running things now. There's hope for America yet!
  • Change, if that's what you want to call it
    Looking at this dubious list of accomplishments, it seems to me that Obama is intent on doing what the Soviets were never able to achieve--destroying the U.S.A.
  • Another thing to the list...
    Add to this list the new Mortgage relief whatzit that Obama is now trying to shove down our pipes to the tune of another 50-100 billion. Let's see...you bought a house WAY over your means because the Dems belived everyone should have the right to own a home. You couldn't make the payments and were in forclosure. No problem, we'll make it easier for you to stay in your house with a restructure of your loan. Six months later you STILL cannot make the payments. No problemo, Here comes your knight in shining armor...Obama. Until we purge these people of these homes, or just downright GIVE it to them, we'll keep spiraling down with this mess!
  • HYPOCRITE
    Did Obummer say that he wants us all to realize the "American Dream"? Then tell me WHY does he criticize the ACHIEVERS aka the ones who are already living their American Dream?
  • Looking forward
    I am looking forward to the 2010 election, assuming we still have a country then.
  • GE - NBC
    Heard an interesting observation yesterday. If GE Capital took TARP funds (don't know if they did), would that require a salary cap on Obelmann and company on MSNBC?
  • NoBama!
    I still don't know and cannot see one good thing about our "president". Thank God he's black!
  • Hopey Dopey Change
    I "hope" this "change" stops real soon.
  • Why not?
    What's going to stop us from being coerced into paying 40-50% income taxes in the future? May as well consider Australia as my next home!
  • Buh-Bye
    Looks like it's time to implement your escape plan, Neal. Yep, time to turn off your microphone and take your "high achieving" behind out of here. It'll be tough, but we'll all figure out a way to live without your incessant whining.
  • Change the Bush I believe in
    Sounds like you're describing the last 8 year, must be from your archive LOL
  • Change You Can Believe In
    You left out:
    Reference to a "Global War on Terror" is no longer allowed.
    Cheers,
  • LOL!
    And that's just the first month! ...at least 47 more to go! Is it just me or does David Axelrod look like Adolf Hitler with a wider mustache? HEIL OBAMA! It's always the other hand you better watch, cuse that's what they're really after!
  • Change I can believe in
    After reading all this, the "Change that I can believe in", is to get the heck out of the US and go to a more capitalistic country. South America anyone???
  • minor beef
    A very impressive list Neal! Makes me want to throw up that it even is possible to have that much from just the first few days.

    However, I don't know that I'd go this far, "The White House performance czar turns out to be a tax cheat also."

    Didn't she have a $950 lein many years ago? That she paid many years ago. Have you investigated the circumstances of how that happened?

    You remind us that you had a tax 'incident' recently that you took care of when it was brought to your attention.

    From what I've read, it seems she did the same thing.

    To say she had tax problems is accurate, I'm just not SURE that it rises to the level of 'cheater.'

    But it's a small beef with a very impressive list of decomplishments from the Obama administration.

    Thanks for being so entertaining as you're informing us how rotten the situation is.

    You are the big fish in the pond for me, as Rush is an afterthought, and Hannity has just gotten so repetitive it's sad.

    Here's hoping you are able to last through the next four years without being yanked off the air by the FCC.
  • What is even better is....
    We are only one month into Obama's 4 year term. I wonder what else will be added to that list? I'm sure we will some sort of civilian disarmament scheme. Probably a take over of banks, health care, and farms.

    All for the good of the collective.
  • Obama Promises
    I see the change. Too bad there's no hope.

    Responsible, tax paying citizens seem to be the big losers in this scheme.
  • Change
    It is only the beginning. Think what will change when all this change fails.
