3. If I met him, I'd say: "A spine. Grow one. NOW"
That pretty much covers it.

6. 2010, now means everything for him
Edited on Fri Dec-03-10 02:07 AM by sat110
If he caves in and extends the millionaire and billionaire tax breaks
to the tune of 700 billion, If he passes that, he will not be reelected
no matter how many lip biting BS speeches he rants on with, he will become
toxic to the base country wide, he already is toxic in Florida.

THE BASE WILL NOT FORGET! COME 2012.

To be fair he has lost my vote already, I'm at a point where I don't care
about whether we have Obama or a Republican President I see no difference
in fact I think he has got things passed for them a republican could have
never done.

If he really wanted middle class breaks
All Obama had to do during the last year was name what they passed today,
something like the Obama Tax cuts, then let them filibuster that in the senate.
and let Bush unfair tax cuts expire plain and simple, problem is he wants them
for himself. WE HAVE BEEN SOLD OUT, Sadly the Bush tax cuts will be passed in full
and a second bailout is coming next year or the year after, the Banks are getting
what you might call returns from investers, due to bad fraudulent paperwork exposed
during forecloser. It's going to be interesting how the Republicans and there good
Friend President Obama handle it.

13. Get Us Out of These Wars
As expeditiously as possible. Do not let us get sucked into any new wars--not with Korea, not with Iran.

And downsize the military bases we have all over the world.

Our military budget is killing us.
