“DITTO Ira...Im 62 and have been a political junkie since I was a kid. I loved sitting around the kitchen table with my dad talking chit about IKE.....As a combat veteran and mostly hard-hearted, this President brings tears to my eyes with his ambition, sincerity and grasp of the situation. America can be proud of their votes in 2008...We finally did the right thing...YES WE DID !”

“Just imagine if 63% of the American businesses in America that do not pay any taxes finally stepped up to the plate and paid their fair share along with the other $100 billion owed by the taxpayers, this country would be in much better shape. Maybe its time for everyone to quit bitching and do their duty.”

“It would be even more funny and entertaining if anyone would really care or pay attention to what any GOPer had to say. Even mocking the things these idiot say and do is getting boring.

“It is almost maddening that the GOP's claim to fame is that the "SURGE" worked so well. After all, this was an unnecessary war to begin with waisting 4266 lives, maybe more, all for naught. The violence is down because we no longer have 1000's of troops in patrol through the streets going door to door. And, the entire cities are cordoned off with barriers and guards to separate the different religious sects, so as to not to provoke more violence. That being said, there are at least 50 episodes of bombing per week and will probably escalate as we withdraw more troops. History will prove this to be the biggest boondaggle in quite some time.”

“It must be terrible for the Republicans to see the entire world anxious to deal with a real president once again. We can surlely hold our heads high knowing we dont have to hold our breath everytime our president speaks. I appears that some co-operation is taking place with the ECO crisis and the fiasco left by president Bush in Afghanistan. Perhaps the ECO is slamming on its brakes with new home construction rising, new home sales and existing home sales on the rise, low interest rates and durable goods doing well.
The party of NO will take another beating in 2010. PIYUSH Jindal wont save the GOP by flying into Washington DC on his magic carpet. The GOP had to go to the political grave yard and dig up the NEWSTER to help revive the party. Now how bad is that?...lmfao !”

“It wasn't against protocol when President Bush blew the King of SAUDI ARABIA for paying so much money to the BUSH family. Especially after SAUDI provided 15 of the 19 hijackers that flew into the towers & pentagon. And not to mention the SAUDS being the largest contributors to Al-Qaeda.
I'm glad Michelle touched the Queen and the Queen reciprocated.

“As we were sold out by rich Wall Street greed, bankers, insurance magnets and healthcare providers, we were also sold out by the news media. Barely a sign of any investigating reporting but rather innuendos, opinions and false acquisations made by all media outlets. With the 24 hour cable news cycles, they are more interested in making the news instead of reporting news. Any thing goes in order to grab the headlines. Simply pathetic”

“A nice little bump upward in the DOW, albeit probably just temporary, a 22% increase in new housing construction and a 5.1% increase in existing home sales for the month of Febraury and along with higher approval rating of the President must have the republicans vomiting over their downward trend in the polls.
