Obama: 6 month report card

[kishg]

I do read the WSJ every weekday, and I also peruse BBC.
All media here is slanted left or right, like I've stated before on r3v, I try to read non-biased literature and make an opinion off of that. I barely watch Fox News anyway.

ok good then read the section on this very topic in the weekend journal. you'll find a more balanced view there.

it's too bad all your knowledge seems to come from glenn beck and ann coulter.. try reading the wall st journal instead one of the few real bastions of journalism left in the US.

Since when is age equivalent to political knowledge/interest? I'm sure I know more about what is going on in this country than people two or three times my age, which is extrememly sad in itself.

I'm 19.

Dude? You act like some know-it-all on this. What are you 19? 20?

Just another example of how many Obama supporters are extremely ignorant to what is going on around them.

To answer your question, of course the Dems and Obama will take as much credit as they possibly can if the economy recovers soon. However, I highly doubt it will bounce back before Obama is in some serious hot water.

I just want to point something out.
Many Obama supporters think Obama had nothing to do with the bailout and that it was all Bush's fault. Obama just fell into what was already happening....
Who do you think will get credit if the economy recovers soon? Rhetorical question...

Honestly, I don't care, who takes credit for what.


BUT I will get violent if any of hippy childrens and minorities around local colleges will say "told you so". It's annoying enough they "won" elections, all by themselves. They act like Dolphins fans after winning a game in their 1-15 season.

[Wiglaf]

dunno what you're so pissed about, most of the money went straight to your big businesses.

See post 232 on the $180 million spending on new planes.

Ooops Sorry I was wrong.....

Now its $500 million for 8 jets. When big Government bitched at Corporations with their private fleet, Congress steps up their own fleet.

$500 million tax payer dollars could really go better somewhere else!

mathematically it is worse, just saying. I always though it was funny how Obama during campaign talked about Bush's 8-year spending, and was always saying how much less government would be spending on annual basis, while comparing his fiscal budget to total of 8 years. I always laughed at people, who never learned to multiply by eight and compare numbers.

I am very conservative when it comes to government and very liberal when it comes to personal rights. There are some issues I agree with Obama administration on, but when it comes to all these new government programs, I am strongly against.

I wouldn't harp on the spending too much, it's no worse than before.

I didn't say anything about it being worse now.....
