We need to RAISE TAXES and the wealthy and their corporations need to find their patriotism again when the rich pay only 15% or LESS    and the corporations some pay nothing at all  !!    This is just irresponsible and evil.   
 

Now you know what EIGHT YEARS of republican leadership did for us.
Two Bush Tax Cuts not funded and  (republicans are insisting we extend Bush Tax CUTS and MORE  ) 
Part D was  not funded 
TWO WARS  not funded.  
BIggest depression since 1929.

The President is only one man whose been in office not even a term yet, but people love to blame him for this mess.  When it took a few  more years and another president to get us where we are today.  Although, if  you have to blame anyone how about starting with those career politicians who are worried about their own pockets rather than the welfare of their constituents. 
Our lawmakers have a disapproval rating of 84%. The other 16% who approve of our lawmakers are either close friends, relatives, wall street or have their heads in the sand.

Every thing WRONG has gone from blaming  Clinton ..  .jumping right over Bush's EIGHT YEARS  and Republicans running ( RUINING) everything..... to now blaming  Obama for the unemployment handed down,  the Wall Street mess,   and the reasons for the deficit.     . That's a major feat of parrot propaganda.

Need to get in the mood to vote republican--who left the DOW 6000....a recession that began in 2003.. PLEDGE.get rid of TAXES on the RICH, rid of social security, medicare, minimum wage, unions, & mke this a Christian count

This was a comment made on a website I thought was on target......

I like Republicans even less than Democrats but plan to elect them in a landslide, and that this will improve things.

I need to get in the mood here. I have to be FINE with the trend of an ever-greater share of the American economy going to the very richest people and a tax policy that encourages this trend. Power follows wealth & when I win a million $ in the lottery-- I'll like that.

Actual workable plans to rationalize the health care system in this country is un-necessary and feel that the long trends of ever-increasing costs for ever-shrinking coverage will fix themselves in maybe 100 years.

I need to prefer more religion in government and schools and less science because that will lead to better outcomes and climate science is wrong.

Deficits didn't matter ever before, but now they SURE do and all I should think about.

I'll blame President Obama for the bad economy, and further project anything he does about it .... I'll blame him even more.

Did I miss anything?
