    Thats hard to believe. I like to spend and stay far below my limits. Obama doesnt like to spend and he brings the country to its financial knees. Causing wide spread misery to millions of Americans. Thats a shameful thing for a pres. to do to his people, the people he took an oatth to do the best for.We are all his people, do the rite thing for all the people.

    That is bogus…what a bunch of crap. Obama relishes in spending because it is redistributing wealth…the basis of Obama’s platform. In addition…when Obama originally reported the tax compromise to America, he was very unhappy, even livid… until Krauthammer exposed just how much this compromise really cost us. Then Obama’s attitude toward the compromise totally changed and he even involved Clinton in the push for it. This panelist is nothing but a bloviator and either really has no clue on who Obama is or just wants to portray a President he wishes Obama was.

    I am shocked that he could say something like that and the rest of them just sat there and acted like it was gospel. I don’t know if these people have some kind of brain disorder where they actually believe the lie the tell once they have told it or if they are such polished liars that they can do it so well.
    One thing that I do know is that they rely on the citizens of the United States remaining uninformed so that they can tell lies like this and actually expect not to be challenged on them. It says it all about MSNBC that he wasn’t.

      I figured it out–He doesn’t have one!

      He was born in Kenya, according to Kenya newspapers, the Ambassador to Kenya, and his grandmother, who was present at the hospital in Kenya when he was born. In his book, Obama stated that he found his birth certificate in a book. What’s wrong with posting THAT one on the Internet? Uh-oh! We have a minor problem–it says “Kenya.”

Obama has been spending since he signed on to the TARP bill of Bush’s he has NO creditability with even his own base..NOW if he makes his speech and goes for 1. defecate reform and 2. TAX reform.. He loses.. because to create defecate from he has to CUT those PROGRAMS and DEPARTMENTS that HE expanded..which will make his extreme left base UNHAPPY.. and they won’t vote for him.. the RIGHT doesn‘t trust him and won’t vote for him.. the INDEPENDENTS like myself well to be honest I didn’t trust him in the first place..One thing they can talk all they want to about is how he DIDN’T want to spend HOWEVER.. he STATED while RUNNING for office how HE would increase the cost of ELECTRIC.. make the RICH pay more.. and REDISTRIBUTE the money.. and he has been working on those goals.. ALL the people see it.. so now he going to say the opposite? Claim the HOUSE and SENATE made him spend?? They ALSO failed to note that people voted against this president this past election BECAUSE of his REGULATIONS… the sneaky way he made appointments and gave the EPA the right to go after the people WILL NOT settle well .. by the time 2012 comes people will already understand just how DANGEROUS his actions have been when they have NO JOBS and HIGH PRICES because of regulations..they can’t rewrite history.. it’s been RECORDED and THE PEOPLE have copies..

He never stated that this was his second or third choice but rather rushed it through. This dingdong is stupid and also thinks that Obama was the reason the tax cuts were extended when Obama specifically stated that the rich need to pay there fair share over and over again on many different networks.

      Warren Buffett’s Republican partner, Charlie Munger, recently wrote that we should all “thank God” that Obama did the stimulus, which included tax cuts (40%) and government spending (60%). He also thought that expanding the Fed balance sheet and bailing out the banks was critical to avoiding an economic catastrophe. There are too many people here who do not understand or have forgotten just how dire the situation was. Those that do understand it will consistently tell you that the stimulus was necessary to avoiding 20%+ unemployment and double digit declines in GDP. This is Sullivan’s point, that no one foresaw how bad it was going to get, and Obama certainly did not anticipate that he’d have to intervene to that degree, much less say that he would on the campaign trail. He was far more moderate on economic policy than his first year in office reflected, but that was because the crisis demanded it. Heck, Dick Cheney was for the TARP package and said so himself!
