So...you all going to vote for another of these criminal parasites... Again?

thats right no more tea baggers...we want our taxes...to run our government...funny you want tax breaks forever..how can that be?

waiting?

is that a batman riddle

Unfortunately a lot of the independents don't understand economics, which is why the country is failing.

@Darrel Segers

I AM a registered Independent, have been ever since the Maryland GOP opened up their primary to let Independents vote in it in 2000 due to the intense interest in the Bush-McCain race (turned out to be pretty much a moot point by the time they got to Maryland actually...). And I'm saying right now that if you are opining that anything even approximating 80% of Independents are siding with the GOP against Obama then you aren't,nor have you ever been,an Independent.

Nice try though...

aint that the truth ..bigonza..I love it grover

I've never met a poor politician....even the ones who have been in the public sector their entire lives.....why is that?

Well, the gopers now have JOE the Plumber running for a goper office.

Hmmm...I'd bet that even Joe the Plumber could beat Obama in 2012 (and do a much better job as president! ....how could anyone do worse?)

Blame Obama #66.3: If you max out your credit card in 2000 to 2008 should you blame your new wife whom you married in 2009, for being broke after that. Every thing that came down the pike while Bush was in office was dropped at Obama's door in 2009. Two wars, financial crisis, housing bust, sky rocket unemployment, immigration crisis, these all began under Bush and his Congress. Clinton left us with a surplus, who used all of that up, it sure wasn't Obama. I guess you must be blind in one eye and can't see out of the other one, which means you need braile to be able read but your finger tips are as numb as your brain. God Almighty couldn't fix the mess the Republicans got us into since 2000, in three years if he were in office. Quit bellyaching about Obama nitwit and get out your coloring book and stick to somthing you can figure out, such as whether you should color the tree red or blue, you already have WASP all over your face. Get in your pickup, with the rifle holster and the chain dangling from the back and troll through a black neighborhood, you might catch a Cain unawares.

Bye-Bye entire GOP congress

Sorry but I don't see that happening. Even tho I don't really like Obama, I would rather have him than a Republican whose agenda is everything I am against. Again, the lesser of two evils but if Americans would stand up for what they believe in, it wouldn't have to be this way.

bye bye i love it

Joe...like 2010?

Republicans won BIG in 2010....and Obama has steadily gotten worse! Why wouldn't 2012 be a repeat performance?

i hope to God there are not more dumb folks like yourself.out in the USA

Obama is actually polling about where he was at the time of the elections last year,roughly 46% favorable and 46% unfavorable. Meanwhile the only thing to change in the last election is that the GOP now controls the House so we can surmise that as the catalyst for the mood towards the current Congress---9% approval and 84% disapproval. The worst score ever.

Also if mid-term election results in a presidents first term were a truly predictive harbinger then Reagan and Clinton would have never been re-elected. And they both won big,with approval numbers LOWER than what Obama is sporting right now.

....both Reagan and Clinton much higher approval ratings themselves. A wet sock could currently beat Obama (and probably do a better job!)

Since the polls, the pundits, and the American people disagree with you Blamey, I think it's safe to say you won't be celebrating after Obama is reelected next year, will you?

BOTH Reagan and Clinton,a year out from the elections were polling lower than Obama currently is BlameObama. And Bush junior was as well (though he DIDN'T suffer losses in the mid-terms in his first term as did Reagan,Clinton and Obama...).

You are perfectly entitled to your own opinion,as ignorant and childish as it may be. But you are not entitled to your own facts.

Bigonza, It is not all about money but about power. That said, if Romney were to be elected with his 25 million, bet after 4 years it would be 40 million plus.

Elvis...I think it is time for you to leave Zucatti Park...it seems the cold and snow are making you incoherent and delirious!!

..or is that normal behavior for a Lefty?

look the sloppy Joe group hahahaha

right on.. When clinton had to compromise with the GOP in congress, the result was always "somewhere in the middle" - with neither side getting all they wanted. Moderation, as in most things, seems to work best

What a shame that 60% of our population buys into this evil rich nonsense. They still don't get that Obama is a broken record. The Dems wasted $7 trillion & we're bankrupt. They did nothing to stop CEO's or restore the old bank system. Instead we only got a mega bill and Great Depression 2. Obama takes money from Wall Street, the Unions, DNC, etc. & the media doesn't expose him. The public has no clue that hard work and success have been destroyed. There are nowhere near the "rich" people anymore and the jobs leave because of taxes. Stupid stupid media fools even dumber people every day. Now we have 51% of the population on welfare & 40% on food stamps. Can you say Greece?

look at the last election

Did Obama not have the majority of his presidency with a majority Democrat Senate and House? ...Please stop with the whiny excuses!

Jeff..He has messed the fix, not fixed the mess. He tried to go an almost impossible job but got sidetracked with his health care B.S. ans forgot about the jobs. I voted for him and have been dissapointed.

Yeah BlameObama the GOP abuse of the filibuster rule in the Senate had NOTHING to do with it whatsoever right? LMAO at Cantor and Boehner pissing and moaning that their corporate welfare bills dressed up as jobs creation can't get a vote in the Senate after the BS the GOP has pulled the last 3 years.

And lest we forget is was YOUR party that wanted a constitutional amendment eliminating the filibuster in 2005 because they felt the Democrats were being obstructive on Bushes' judicial nominees (never mind that Bush got more judges appointed than Clinton ever did,or Obama is on pace to...).

BTW am I the only one who looks at Cantor's whiny little bitch boy routine and sees a kid who's lunch money never made it past first period and is getting even now?

You are permitted your own opinion, but not your own facts. There is a definition for the word "filibuster," and by that definition there were no filibusters. And besides, Democrats had 60 votes in the Senate. The Republicans did not have the votes to filibuster anything. Filibuster is what Democrats did all through the Bush years, including filibustering judicial nominations which was unprecedented.

Q: "How many Republican filibusters were there in 2009?"

A: "ZERO"

Please spew your lies to your liberal friends.......you probably have a great shot of them believing you!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

LMAO. 285 pieces of legislation passed by the House in 2009 NEVER came to a vote in the Senate you ass-clown. Now while it may be true that there were no "physical" filibusters,like seen in "Mr Smith Goes to Washington" for instance,that does NOT mean that the GOP didn't announce their intention to flilibuster those pieces of legislation. Now the Dems SHOULD have called them on their BS and made them actually do that every time on C-Span but don't sit here and try to tell us that McConnell and his cronies didn't throw sand in the gears on all that legislation. Neither party filibusters that way anymore and if you knew your ass from a hole in the ground you would know that.

I guaran-effing-tee that were the GOP to take the Senate in the next election and the Dems employ the same tactics McConnell,Cantor and Boehner would trip over themselves running to the press to cry about it and you would be the first Tea Bagger clown to be in here to piss and moan about it.

What a brilliant deduction, I wonder why more of us poor ignorant folks haven't figured that out yet. Next you'll be telling us that we should curtail political contributions and lobbying. How do you think we can run a proper Congress that way. I mean no millionaire Congressmen either going in or coming out, we can't have that kind of talk, its unAmerican. Millionaires know what's best for us poor folks. we got more fun than we know how to handle just scrapping by and shuffling off to the poor house. We don't need your uppity kind telling us there's too much money in politics, somebody needs to find a rope and a tree for your outlandish talk or hit you with the Patriot Bill, you definitely unpatriotic.

Think you pretty well summed it up for sure...good post

You don't even realize that Harry Reid blocks all the budget votes do you? Do some research.

Go to the US websites & see that we went from a $7 trillion debt in 2007 when Pelosi & Reid came into a lame Bush duck and declared a war on energy. We got $4 gas & a bursted bubble. Now we have a $15 Trillion debt. We are bankrupt because the economy has grown since 2008.

Welcome to Greece, thank you Dems & media. Our grandchildren are screwed.

The economy always doubled under every president except Obama. It has NOT grown since 2008.

Look up the debt vs. the Gross Domestic Product people.

Go to the Federal websites & do some research for a change.

The next election is about an important question, posed by the GOP, which is whether the US is going to fall into a lock step into the deep lunatic fringes of right wing extremism. The Tea Party movement failed miserably because it began with high hopes that it would be a party of governmental reform but it quickly devolved into just another bunch of right wing blithering idiots, exemplified by such luminaries as O'Donnell, Palin, Bachmann, Perry, and others too despicable to mention. The GOP is being dragged down with the Tea Party as it sinks under the waves of public approval because they embraced the TP as its hope for a new, re-energized Republican Party but now they have discovered they are hugging a political anchor that is taking them down with it. The polls prove it with numbers that make Obama's look positively incandescent, and the Republican Party debates have pushed the TP's shameful failure right into America's living rooms. Now the hopes of the GOP are dwindling fast and the choices are between a pizza chain manager and a less-than-successful ex-governor who has been saddled up and ridden all around town by the other wannabe Republican candidates because of his religion. Not an auspicious start to the primaries, much less a presidential election, is it?

The truth is the GOP has failed before they started. It will be Obama in 2012 by default. America is holding an election and the Republican Party just isn't going to show up.

Read 'em and weep.

SORRY darth@!$%#s.....FACTS ARE STILL FACTS:

Avg. Annual Budget Deficit Under: Bush -2.0% Obama -9.5%

Avg. Annual Increase in Federal Debt($trillions): Bush $.5 Obama $1.8

Avg. Monthly Unemployment Rate: Bush 5.3% Obama 9.5%

Total Employment Gains (in millions): Bush 5.7 Obama (3.5) yes, negative under Obama

Avg. Annualized Housing Starts: Bush 1655.2 Obama 568.2

Avg. Annualized Quarterly GDP Growth: Bush 1.8% Obama 1.5%

Avg. Annual Food Stamp Participation (in millions): Bush 22.7 Obama 37.0

Can you find a way to argue the facts???? Obama's Presidency is a DISASTER and the facts do not lie!!! You hypocrites spewed your rhetoric daily about how bad Bush was....Obama is A THOUSAND TIMES worse and yet you drop to your knees and beg for him to unzipper his fly, all the while thinking of how you can canonize his very existence! ......FACTS!! Stop drinking the Kool-Aid and grow some brains for yourselves! You do not have to believe every "spin" you are spoon-fed by the likes of George Soros, Michael Moore and your wealthy Liberal Keepers.

Blame- This is so easy it is not even funny, Bush did not count 2 wars in his budget, FACT. The economy was was in a death spiral, FACT. Many of the bailouts were by the Bush adm. FACT. We voted for hope and change, what did we get? The party of NO, their only agenda was to make Obama, a one term President. FACT.

Your wasting your time hummbird,Blame is a whole new level of Tea Bagger stupid. He's probably yanking it to Hannity re-runs right now.

BTW whatever happened to pussboy Sean getting water-boarded for charity?

Care or not, The republicans are not denying that they represent the 1%, Think about it , the banksters who stole billons from the american people will be held accountable even if you want to give them a free pass, stay tuned.

apparently you do not understand sarcasm too well, it's your precious Obama who has done to this economy what will take decades to repair pull your head out and come out where the rest of us are at barely surviving, even with a job because the inflation will do to us what the unemployment could not

Care or not, The republicans need well educated people like yourself to further their agenda, keep up the good work you are doing, but believe me you will be on the wrong side of history, along with Bush, Cheney, Boner and Cantor.

Care, I don't recall any unfunded invasions occurring on Obama's watch such as invading Afghanistan and Iraq ten and eight years ago respectively.

And I wonder how you get your pants on in the morning given that your IQ is the same as your belt size! It must be hard being you, Blamey!

I am appalled at just how stupid the average American has become! ...than I think about the almost 50% of Americans that fall below this average!! ....and you wonder how Obama still has supporters?

You call less than 50% stupid, they are the ones that are stupid, I agree with you, thay voted for <cCain and Palin, The other 51% or more are smart, they voted for Obama.

BlameObama, The least educated voters tend to come from states that trend republican; and looking at their presidential field it makes sense.

Thanks Mad independent for voting in these Loons in 2010, I thougth the 2010 elections were about jobs jobs, jobs, but of course you bought what they sold you, lock, stock and barrell, " YOU Betcha"

Actually, Rock the 2010 elections were about getting rid of Medicare and Social Security and dealing with America's Number One issue: Gay marriage! Sheeesh!

Lynette-510249

It gives me gret pleasure to burst your mental bubble. You and your liberal/progressive/socialist brethren ar in the minority in this country. The independents will not be fooled by Obama again.

Dave, why do you call democrats socialist?

Yes Dave, just keep voting for the loons, it seems to be working out. You must be one of the 9% of americans that think the congress is doing its job. I would be proud to be part of that minority!

Does giving money to Exxon and other prosperous corporations qualify as socialism? Inquiring minds know, others not so much.

Who is Biden? Is he still VP? It is hard to tell...I've never seen nor heard from him since 2008! It is hard to imagine that someone could be more useless than Obama...but in steps Joe Biden!

OBAMA/BIDEN = 2 JOKES!

Biden has been up and about and in the news but I wish we could say the same of our LAST VP, you know, the one that was hiding in the bunker and only coming out to shoot his friend in the face.

He shoulda shot Liz in the face,it would be an upgrade.

And Blamey if you want to see the living embodiment of most useless...well I'm sure there's a mirror somewhere in you house,right? (Pssst,it's that thing under your rails of Chrystal Meth...).

Lynette.....I am with you.......but it might be like they say" When pigs fly..........." but it's Iowa nad I here they drive cars and trucks and run for public office?
