Has America got it's head up it's ass

Yes. The U.S. voter has its head up its ass. Both the 51% who voted and the 49% who dident. The stimulas created between 2.5 and 3.5 million jobs but every republican who had an add described the stimulas as failed and the stupid electroate bought it.




















5 who dident.

Such privatizing of the commonwealth is the destruction of all republics... Even after the Caesars and civil war to risist and attempt land reform, only six individuals owned all of Mauretania... Slaves (sound familier) drove farmers from the land, as later sheep would fulfill the same purpose in England and Ireland.... With every bit of commonwealth made private the republic was less able and willing to defend itself... The wealthy would defend their wealth if they could, but slaves will not defend their slavery, and the poor will not defend their poverty... The only way the commonwealth can be safe is in the publics hands, with everyone having a share, and every share returned to the commonwealth in one fashion or another...

Whether Greece is the subject, or Rome, they laid their hearts bare to the barbarians when they handed their wealth and rights to the rich.... Those people invented many of the property rights and laws we suffer today... Rome invented the corporation...

When our founding fathers used Rome as the model of our republic they recreated Rome at the moment before its destruction became certain and tyranny became inevitable... They learned nothing from history, least of all how to avoid the pitfalls of inequality of wealth that only grows extreme in time... They admired the glory of Rome and did not grasp the extent to which that glory was robbed from the people and dangled as a prize before barbarians...

There is no telling people there is a reason to vote when they know better... They came out of their worm holes to elect Obama for change and got **** because he was trying to work with the form to make the form work when the form is exactly that which is ruining the people, and they know it... They should stand by while the old South and protestant republicanism lynch him for being educated... He is educated all right... He knows the form he is blinded by... We are not...

We may not know in every case what sort of monster has us... It may only be it.... It may only be they... It may be the republicans to one and democrat to another, but we know we are being robbed and victimized, and that the government is not helping with that...

The people took a chance on Mr. Obama, and he played it safe... He can go to hell now... I will never vote for him again...

You are entitled to your opinion. My opinion is summed up when I, pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of American, and for the Republic for which it stands, one nation...

oh please, i might vomit

Well said!

Obama had his head up his ass....he so much as admit it in his aftermath speech.

Even if you are correct about how many jobs the stimulus created (and I am not arguing your number), its hard to see any sign of the when you look at the unemployment numbers and what Obama said.

Unemployment was at 7.6% when he was sworn in, since then it has been over 10% and is now over 9%.

When Obama pushed for and proposed his stimulus plan, he promised it would keep unemployment under 8%.

So as long as people are out of work, saying his plan created jobs is meaningless.
All one has to do is look at the numbers and see what happened.

Therefore, the Republicans who created this mess by allowing the finance system to run wild for 8 years should be place back in power because Obama is having a problem repairing the damage done in a two years period of time?

Canada came out of this economic mess so much better than the US and we still have massive unemployment (not as high, but still too high), the economy is changing, very slowly, nobody is going to change it anytime soon, it's going to correct itself in time

What is relevant here is that you speak from ignorance, which is why i have nothing further to discuss with you.

Yes, America has it's head up it's ass in some ways, but in a big way, it was the shitheads in the article below who were behind what happened this election. They practically started the tea party themselves, almost everyone that works there is a Republican running for some elected office, they gleefully promote anything that makes democrats look bad, even if it's untrue (See the ACORN smear campaign, among others), and they donate to Republican organizations. And after all that, they still have the balls to pretend to be an unbiased news organization.

And don't think this propaganda arm of the Republican party is going away anytime soon. NewsCorp profit was up 36% profit last quarter. Good luck trying to beat the new Mcarthyists, America!

Every one speaks from ignorance and is silent from wisdom; and I mean you too... People converse to learn... They advance a proposition to see where it will lead them... An expression of facts as they are seen is but a predicate to better vision, so get of your head out of your damned high horse's ass and join the human race...

oooh setanta, dont have a hissy fit , off course your right and everybody else is wrong.

About half of the people, and the all of our government. It is sad. We need to change but we need to know which change will guide us in the right direction.

they stood under the swastika and said pretty much the same thing.

Look, I dont think for 1 minute that America alone has fed up voters, some stupid voters and right wing and inept politicians. It's just that who Americans elect affects us all, as we seen with the last administration. For instance, say Ireland voted in a bunch of neo nazis, well it would be awful, but the rest of the world would'nt lose too much sleep over it, where as, if America elects some hate filled, narrow minded, xenophobic, right wing party ( the republicans ), we'll all pay for it.
