Government solution usually adds to the problem. Normally worse that what was proposed in the first place. The less of that the better.

It's humorous to hear an Obama supporter referring to an $86 billion hole as gaping.

The assumption that massive cuts in the tax rates won't result in an increase in economic activity is almost equally as humorous.

Actually, he doesn't understand that Nobama has a hole. To have a budget deficit you have to have a budget. Nobama has a bottomless check book with no budget. Therefore no budget deficit and no hole.

I would put myself in the middle class based on income, work level(middle management) and neighborhood. However, we tend to interact with folks from top to bottom. And I don't mean we just see people in passing, but interact in meaningful ways, so we get a lot of info from all sides. I can say this, everyone is concerned. Nobody wants to take a risk and are working toward keeping things as stable for themselves as they can. My CEO cousin wants to expand--he has to expand to keep earning the profits demanded by his shareholders, but he won't until he knows exactly how the ACA is really going to affect the bottom line. Our friends on public assistance or unemployment want to get off and get a real job, but won't risk it until they can find a job that pays more than $15 an hour and has health benefits because that is what they get from the government. Right now no one knows what to do, so everyone is holding what they have. Until we get some sort of confidence back we're stuck.

Sounds about like us.

You pretty much hit the nail on the head. Business is so scared of Obama, when he got elected, they took their ball and went home. He's toxic for the whole outlook of the country and general mood. He needs to be removed for the good of the country as a whole.

I had forgotten about this.

I think the objection from Republicans is less about some cockamamie theory that he is in a conspiracy with Putin and more bristling at the perceived assumption he is making that he'll win.

Again, though, the things that the GOP keeps harping on when it comes to Obama are things that people who already plan to vote against him care about. Going back to something like this, especially in light of Obama's pretty decent overall foreign policy record, isn't likely to get many votes and just comes across as petty.

Romney would be far better off explaining to undecideds precisely how he is going to make their individual economic circumstances better. So far, the Obama campaign is winning the message battle on that score, it seems to me.

Putin alliance? It's about a guy broadcasting that he'll do what he will when the electorate no longer has a say in his retention, meaning he will act unaccountably after re-election.

Why are the simple concepts so hard to understand BPV?

I don't remember what the quote pertains to, but if it's missile defense then it could just be feeding the Russians what they want to hear. As I understand we've been doing that for years with missile defense talks because they are irrational and paranoid (well maybe not paranoid).

edit: And by years, I mean every president since Reagan and the first START treaty negotiations.

I'm not concerned about how it applies specifically to the Russians. I'm concerned that our president hasn't been hammered by everyone for saying that as soon as accountability to the electorate is gone, he'll make entirely different decisions. That applies across the board and makes him a complete POS in every possible way.

If middle income families are losing income at this rate why would they question Obama when he is claiming it is Bushs fault, why would they vote for Romney when they can have 4 more years of this great prosperity he promised by taking from the rich., who is going to increase their taxes, so that they have even less money?

And why would industry and business support that, when Obamas approach has left such families with less money to buy goods and services and in many cases without a job even after he spent a trillion $?

We need more money in the pockets of such families, and the Left has found its niche in the power play by promising handouts for votes and yes, we need to pay for that by redistibuting money via a tax on the wealthiest. It will kill jobs but could still allow the Left to stay in power. It will result in less growth but who really cares, maybe eventually we can even the score against the rich. It will result in more government growth and dependency on government because it will spur the idea that "You didn't build that" the government did with your tax dollars

Yes, I'm sure that Putin had no idea how that works over here until Obama let the cat out of the bag.

Your post was retarded.

He gets to openly say it and still be elected. Hell, you're not just electing him, you're (poorly) defending the practice.
