Barack Obama is a colossal failure. He has done EVERYTHING wrong. Every decision he makes poisons our country. To save America, we must do the opposite of everything Obama is doing.
1. Obama has wasted $819 billion of our tax dollars on a failed stimulus package and trillions more on bailouts. He is committing generation theft, putting our children and grandchildren in massive debt. Now he wants more. We should ban stimulus, bailouts and earmarks. They are nothing more than pork barrel spending to buy votes and reward his Democratic political cronies.
2. Obama is imposing the biggest income tax increase in history, placing most of the tax burden on small business owners. We should do the opposite. Taxpayers and small businesses are the engines of our economy. They create most of the jobs and tax revenue. We should reward them with a one-year income tax vacation. The cost would be about the same as Obama’s failed stimulus fiasco and would turn this recession into a great economic boom.
3. Obama has repeatedly violated the Constitution, highlighted by his refusal to investigate ACORN for voter registration fraud and the two Black Panthers charged with intimidating white voters in the 2008 election. He also opposes gun ownership in the hands of law-abiding citizens. We should respect and follow the Constitution, the greatest document ever created.
4. Obama doesn’t believe in states’ rights, ordering the U.S. government to sue Arizona’s new immigration law. We should kill the lawsuit, secure our borders, stop illegal immigration and respect states’ rights as the Constitution demands.
5. Obama has dramatically increased the size, scope, power and spending of government with his healthcare and so-called financial reform bills. His promise to lower health costs while expanding coverage is a lie, something that never was and never will be: a bureaucracy lowering costs in a free society; either the costs go up or the free society goes away. We should repeal the healthcare bill and reduce the size of government, putting more money and power in the hands of individual citizens. We should fire overpaid government employees, stop all raises and cut their obscene salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America.
6. Obama has treated our allies (such as Israel) harshly, while treating evil rulers that support terrorism (Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Venezuela) with kid gloves. We should do the opposite: treat friends with respect and not give enemies the time of day. We should also do what should have been done decades ago: eliminate foreign aid to despots and adversaries across the globe.
7. Obama is spending billions on our failing public education system solely to reward his teachers’ union campaign contributors. We should eliminate the Department of Education and transition government out of this area. In the interim, we should move education funding to the state and local level and encourage vouchers to give parents the freedom to pursue alternatives such as home-schooling, private, charter and religious schools. We should abolish public employee unions and restore to administrators the ability to hire, fire and grant raises based on performance.
8. Obama supports the Federal Reserve and asks them to print ever-more money, devaluing our currency and stealing every American’s savings. We should audit the Fed, and make it transparent and accountable to the people.
9. Obama responded to the Gulf oil disaster with an oil-drilling moratorium costing 100,000 jobs. Obama’s tragic solution destroys the Gulf economy and makes America more dependent on foreign oil. We should do the opposite: encourage more offshore drilling and allow it closer to shore, where disasters can be more easily prevented.
10. Obama has expanded the war in Afghanistan, sending an additional 30,000 troops there. We should stop this no-win war. The original purpose and goals have been long since forgotten. Bring our brave troops home.
I could go on and on, but these are the main points of what he is doing wrong (the most important are at the top). Barack Obama is a corrupt, anti-American socialist dictator. He will go down as the worst U.S. president ever.
I did not write this but I like it.
He has indeed failed to repair America’s economic state. That much is indisputable.
Oh, liberals are amusing. I give them the truth, and they give me a thumbs down because they know I’m right. We all lose with Obama.
i wont mention health care, immigration, energy prices, that have all worsened under bushs crap fest….
as owner of the Tex@ss rangers bush traded sosa….tanking the team.
he bankrupted 3 oil companies when the oil industry was booming.
his new budget……
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080204/ap_on_go_pr_wh/bush_budget
Partly. But Americans can’t blame it all on Bush. We as a nation have been consuming more then we produce for the past 20+ years. All of our debt is not the fault of GWB. Alan Greenspan’s terrible management of the economy which led to bigger bubble after bigger bubble until we finally hit the big one.
De-regulation in the banking industry starting back in the 80s have also led us to this point.
Consumers never ending need for the next best things, and the fact that in this country appearance ios more important then substance (which leads to unsustainable debt) are also to blame.
Yes, GWBs wars and tax cuts have helped by turning what would have been a recession into an existential threat to the dollar as a store of value. 9.5 Trillion in debt is not easily ignored.
Is he partly to blame? yes. is it all his fault? Not hardly.
i have to make a presentation on english about los angeles but i don´t know if there are mistakes……
Los Angeles
The City of Los Angeles also known as L.A. is the second largest city in the United States in terms of population, but it also is one of the world’s most important economic, cultural, and entertainment centers. The inhabitants are 3,833,995. The city is one of the biggest entry points for immigrants to the United States, making it one of the most culturally diverse places in the world. People are attracted to the city for its warm weather, its lifestyle, its unique energy, and the opportunity to realize the American Dream. (1)
Geography
It is located on the west coast of the United States. The city has a total area of 1,290.6 km². There is also the Los Angeles River flowing through the city. The Los Angeles area is rich in native plant species. There are many exotic flowers and flowering trees that are blooming year-round.
Climate
The city is placed in a Mediterranean climate zone with mild, wet winters and warm to hot, dry summers. Seaward breezes keep the beach communities of Los Angeles and San Diego cooler in summer and warmer in winter, compared to those from further inland.
Demographics
The racial makeup of the city is of whites, African Americans, native Americans, Asians, Pacific Islanders and other others like Hispanics and Latinos.
History
Los Angeles was incorporated as a city in California in 1850. The first railroads came, when the Southern Pacific completed its line to Los Angeles in 1876. Oil was discovered in 1892, and by 1923, Los Angeles was giving one-quarter of the petroleum in the world.
In the 1920s moved film and traveling industries to Los Angeles and helped to further develop it. The city was the proud host of the 1932 Summer Olympics. World War II brought new growth, success and richness to the city, although many of its Japanese-American inhabitants were transported to internment camps (2) for the period of the war. During this period also the arrival of the German exiles took place, which included such famous persons as Thomas Mann, Bertolt Brecht and Lion Feuchtwanger. During the years after the war there was an even greater boom, as urban extension expanded into the San Fernando Valley.
Arts and entertainment
Los Angeles is sometimes considered as being the entertainment capital of the world. It gets the title of the cultural capital of the United States together with New York City. Its largest and most well known entertainment industry is film production, but it is also an important center for music, art, and architecture. In Los Angeles there are 4 boroughs: Hollywood, Baverly Hills, Santa Monica and Anaheim.
looks good from what I can see just make sure when you use i talking about yourself cap lock it I. and Baverly Hills is spelled Beverly Hills
We have all seen the T.V. ads Put out by the Oil Co.s who Clear over $660,000,000 in PROFITS EVERY DAY telling you that Going Green at this time would cost American jobs, Nothing could be further from the truth Every other country that has been beating America in the race for the future "Green Economy" has pulled their economies out of a slump. The proof is rite under our noses If take a min. to see how other country’s economies are booming. Lets take a look at The Democratic nation of Germany,..
"How Germany Created Jobs by Going Green"
President Obama says investing in a “green economy” can create 5 million jobs in the next 10 years. How? The answer may lie in Germany. The country that is home to Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen is on its way to making its green sector larger than its auto industry by 2020, according to a recent study. Germany has developed 250,000 new jobs in renewable energy, including nearly 50,000 wind-power jobs in the last five years alone.
The government worked to promote a green culture through all levels of society. ”We started with simpler parts, like automating systems in office buildings to use less power,” says Elmar Bollin, a director of research in Baden-Württemberg. Financial incentives were given to people who retrofitted their homes with renewable sources. Police officers ticketed polluting cars that drove in emission-reduction zones. Competitions challenged citizens to see who could save the most power. Schoolchildren in the city of Heidelberg who devised and implemented successful plans received some of the money they saved to use in their classrooms.
http://www.parade.com/news/intelligence-report/archive/how-germany-created-jobs-by-going-green.html
Germany on track
"Germany, on the other hand, has cut its emissions since 1990 by about 20 percent and is basically on Kyoto track," said Latif, a scientist who has written on the influence of human activity on climate change and has worked extensively in the US.
http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,2705033,00.html
But it’s not just in Germany and the rest of the EU that America’s environmental reputation has taken a beating.
A 37-nation survey published in June as part of the "Global Attitudes Project" of the Washington-based Pew Center showed that there is a "general increase in the percentage of people citing pollution and environmental problems as a top global threat."
If the Republicans get back in Power they plan to reverse Obama’s plans and efforts to move the U.S. toward a green energy future.The oil Co.s have the $$ and technology to take the lead in green energy, But their Greed for the Fast buck has them hiring actors who look like average working folk to make these misleading commercials. They don’t seem to care that Foreign Oil is the #1 funding for the Terrorists our troops are dying to defeat !
what the oil companies don’t tell you is that Amerca is spending over $400 billion per year (as high as $700 during high oil prices) and giving that money to other countries, some of which are not friendly. It also cost billions more in military to secure the oil supply and stabilize middle east. It’s an awfull waste of money that can be better spent in the USA. Consider too that renewable only cost during installation- there are not ups and down of fuel costs and the supply is forever. Emmisions and the environment are just a bonus.
As the Gulf Coast oil spill response team scrambled on Monday to get special fire booms to corral and then burn the slick, key questions surfaced: Were any of those booms even in the area? And if not, should they have been, given a 1994 plan produced for federal agencies to deal with such a scenario?
Elastec/American Marine, a company that provided the fire boom for the test burn last week, said it received an order last Monday but only had one of its patented Fire-Hydro booms in stock. That’s being rushed to the spill site and six more are being rounded up, some from Brazil. Each can cost $100,000 or more.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/36912754/ns/us_news-environment/
Right from the liberals loons favorite website too, so each boom cost 100 grand, and the disaster will be in the BILLIONS, AND Obama and his Cabal did NOT follow the existing plan. Kind of sounds just like the dimwitted Democrats in New Orleans, hmmm, just can’t seem to follow a plan too well can they?
How about an answer to how hes done so much damage in a little more than a year…..
Here is my persuasive essay on why we should start adopting the ideas and uses of electric cars. Tell em what you think. Sorry it long but hey, i feel like i did good. If there are any questions or mis understandings, just tell me. Thanks
Essay:
If you could drive on the power of the sun, would you? Would you only pay two cents per mile? And would you help the environment for the future to come? I would, and so would you! All of these questions are answered with the electric car. Nearly every household in America owns one car that runs on gasoline and pollutes the atmosphere. We, need to start adopting the ideas and uses of electric cars into our lives; which is to change your gasoline guzzler into a clean, green, electrifying machine! Nissan with the Leaf and Chevy with the Volt are just two E.V.’s to be manufactured for the U.S. in 2010. With groups like “Plug in America” and documentaries such as “Who Killed the Electric Car?”, activists are taking a stand for what’s right! Us American love oil, but with our solar cell technology, we can change our dirty habits and make the switch to green and clean electric vehicles that run on renewable energy!
Electric Vehicles stretch the boundaries of how inexpensive transportation can be. These alternatives are cheaper to keep running when compared to the common gasoline powered cars. For example, when an electric car is up against a 20mpg gas car with gasoline costing $3 per gallon, you spend $0.15 for every mile that you drive. On the other hand, with electricity being the alternative fuel, we pay in kilowatt hours, which would total to about two cents per mile. Over the long run, this is a he amount of savings. Electric cars are cheaper to fuel, but they are also cheaper to maintain. E.V.’s only have one moving part, the motor. No transmissions, gears, sparks or explosions are taking place “under the hood”. No lubricant is needed, so no oil spills to clean up! This would then mean that it does not have to be taken to the shop as much because almost nothing needs to be changed! These cars are much cheaper to maintain than gasoline cars and stay much cleaner! Although electric cars are more expensive to buy from a dealership, they outperform regular petrol cars. They age much slower, and the cars motor never dies because of the so little moving parts inside. But eventually after a decade, your lithium ion batteries start to drain out and lose charge. But instead of buying a new car every couple of years, you just replace the batteries, and they are much cheaper than a new car. Currently, when you purchase a zero emission car in the United States, which E.V.’s are, you can receive up to a $7,500 rebate from the government! In the long run, with the amount of money that you save on the cost or operation and maintenance for E.V.’s, you would save enough money to pay for the car its self! And the best part is, it’s not science fiction, we have the electric alternative technology here today!
We have to go electric, it’s the easiest and most reliable way of alternative transportation. Other options include ethanol, biodiesel, and the most popular, Hydrogen. Yes, these are great way, but they are not readily available to us, unlike electricity. Also, it would cost way more to install hydrogen fueling stations and biodiesel pumps around America instead of electrical outlets. When compared to the most popular other option, hydrogen fuel cells, electric cars win by a long shot, the average hydrogen fuel cell car costs about one million dollars and the technology is just not there yet. We’ve mastered the electric vehicle with over 300 miles to a charge and speed over 100mph, and we should start using it! We need an alternative, and electric is clearly the matter of choice to reduce our dependence on both foreign and domestic oil. As President George W. Bush stated, “America is addicted to oil,” and we need to get rid of our nasty habits. We can start by changing our cars and what they require to run on. Instead of gasoline, we can use electricity, stored in batteries. With battery technology booming, we can extend our ranges to a few hundred mile to a charge! Although the average American only drives about 90 miles per day. Electric cars are said to have a whopping fuel economy of 188 mpg, and are rated as one of the most efficient type of vehicles on the road. They do not waste power when your car is not moving or stuck at a red light , unlike gasoline cars that constantly burn gas. They are only operated when necessary, which saves you power and money! Some have realized the benefits of E.V.’s and how huge they are! Such as in Israel, where they are taking on project “Better Place”, and within a decade, all cars on the Israeli roads will run on electricity, produced from clean and green renewable energy sources!
“The Environmental benefits of E.V.’s are dubious,” stated a California Newspaper in 2003 when GM was about to end their line for the all electric EV1
I think you’ve tried really hard here so well done on that! There are a few problems with the essay though I’d like to highlight.
– Although electric cars are more expensive to buy from a dealership, they outperform regular petrol cars. – In this sense what does "outperform" mean? Are you referring to physical/economical performance? Can you provide a source which backs this up?
- Electric cars are said to have a whopping fuel economy of 188 mpg – Aside from again not highlighting a source for this figure, this is nonsensical. Electric cars cannot be measured in "miles per gallon" as they do not take gallons! Should be "equivalent of" or some such term.
- These cars are much cheaper to maintain than gasoline cars – again, no source of figures to back this up.
- They age much slower – no, everything ages at the same rate. I think what you mean is that electric motors have a longer serviceable life than internal combustion. Again, source required.
- “The Environmental benefits of E.V.’s are dubious,” stated a California Newspaper in 2003 when GM was about to end their line for the all electric EV1 – not sure what this adds?
Let me ask you another question. As most electricity in the world is generated by burning fossil fuels by switching all of the worlds cars to use electricity are we not just moving the pollution from the car to the power station? Can the electricity network handle the increased demand? Surely we need to fix the power plant problem first?!
You’re really good at writing but unfortunately you’ve not convinced me to give up my petrol powered car yet!
This is somewhat of a rant, but please bear with me and just listen to what I have to say.
We all seem to be playing a massive blaming game. Liberals accuse Conservatives for the economic problems, Conservatives blaming the Liberals. But is it just me but are we not going anywhere???
I think the problem isen’t the politicians. Yes the have something to do with it, but I think we should all take time to finally point the finger at the man in the mirror. The people of America put ourselves in this situation. I know many of you are already screaming, “BUT I DIDENT CAUSE THIS!” and I understand and I feel the same way. I’m saying the United States as a whole.
Conservatives like to say that the housing boom and eventual bust was cause by Clinton… Yes and no. Clinton made it possible, but he didn’t force low income families to buy those houses they couldn’t afford. And I know personally that its not just low income families, Higher end families like some friends of mine over spent cause they were just hyped up by the good economy. Is it their fault? Yes, but understand it was just bad spending and I feel they have learned their lesson.
Liberals like to put all the blame on Bush. Did bush cause the economic problems we are facing… no. But did he help the situation, um… not. The war in AFGANASTAN was brought on by 9/11, but what caused us to go into Iraq, I think it was more than just simple oil. Bush’s deficit was $300 billion, which I’m sorry to say is a fraction of the 1.3 trillion brought on by a Democrat congress in mid 2008(I think it was 2008), in the form of the stimulus. Bush’s short coming was that he did nothing…and that’s it. Not saying he had to spend money, but it was a perfect opportunity to finally take charge and provide government jobs of giving the country a much needed facelift in the form of a redone interstate system.
And I’ll avoid the Obama situation for the most part, cause it is a touch subject for most. But I will say this. Liberals, you say you NEED a new healthcare system, You say we NEED cap and trade. No, those are things you WANT. America runs off a mob mentality. As long as 51% are happy, everything is peaches and cream. Im sorry if that is harsh, but only 48 million out of nearly 400 million people are uninsured. Besides, hospitals are not legally allowed to turn away serious medical attention. Should there be reform? To and extent, yes, but not this extreme. And Cap and Trade will cause more harm for the Earth than good. It will just run industry off to China where there are NO regulations.
My final statement is, things -should- turn out better at the end of this. I’d say 2018 or so this will clear up. We as Americans will come out of it stronger. Hopefully we will be able to revert from a importing country to and exporting country like we were before the 60’s.
Ahhh… im sorry that dragged out, but I hope you got something out of it, if not, fine.

Thats was i was trying to get across Lance
IF YOU DONT WANT TO READ, DONT COMMENT ON HOW YOU DONT WANT TO READ!
Bush did it, but so did many many others.
Obama is struggling to clear it up, but he was also part of the team that caused the problem, right?
I think some of the things he is railroading through are for the best in the long run. Throughout history the best leaders have been beneficial dictators.
I’ll go with Obama for a while, if he is shown to have screwed up, out he goes and someone else can have a chance.
Heres the thing. Over the past 2 years Gas prices have went up. Like crazy. yet we see adds about water powered cars everyday, well half water powered or battery powered more like. But then again do you ever think America will ever get water power? Most likely No.
heres my reason. 1 Over half of Americans are blind. we just accept what ever happens and go with it. Oil basicly Runs this nation . I have seen news Clips from over 10 years ago of atlease 6 differant people. These people found a way to burn water and use it as a fuel. a guy back in 1990 found a way to burn salt water in a way that well was very hot. even strong enough to run a car. But boom you dont hear anything about him. the next few people same thing. Back in 2005 a man found a way to use water as fuel and called it HHO. It works great. it can even be used by welders . the flame could even get as Hot as teh sun with in a few seconds and cool down and the only thing that came out of it was water.
he even hooked it up to a car and made a car run off of water. at a great speed too. But yet we still get nothing from the big companys. Why is it that a guy in his garage can make a car run off of water But a Sciencist in a LAB with MILLIONS of dollars hasnt found it? Profit! we will be milked to the very bone before they even think of giving us water powered cars. Our lives dont matter to them only our wallets. if it isnt a profit then it wont happen.
heres the newest news clip from about 2005. It was saved on youtube luckily.

Another story of a great man who is making or was. he has been threatend and turned down by DC tons of times.

There are no "water powered cars" because it is all a big SCAM.
They rely on people like you who believe the stuff they read in ads and see on YouTube.
they also use lot of shills paid to post positive answers here and other places.
I either wish would we would have gotten casinos or stayed to ourselves away from white people. There was talk in the past of giving us 3 states to live in.
The Black Wallstreet:
During the oil boom of the 1910s,The date was June 1, 1921, when "Black Wallstreet," the name fittingly given to one of the most affluent all-black communities in America, was bombed from the air and burned too the ground by mobs of envious whites. In a period spanning fewer than 12 hours, a once thriving 36-black business district in northern Tulsa lay smoldering-A model community destroyed, and a major Africa-American economic movement resoundingly defused.
The night’s carnage left some 3,000 African Americans dead, and over 600 successful businesses lost. Among these were 21 churches, 21 restaurants, 30 grocery stores and two movie theaters, plus a hospital, a bank, a post office, libraries, schools, law offices, a half-dozen private airplanes and even a bus system.

Quit whining and simply resegregate yourself by moving away from the "Evil Whitey" if you find us so intolerable.
Greenwood was never "bombed from the air" although the riot was definitely a tragic incident and a national embarrassment. However, it has been 89 years since the riots. Why was it not been rebuilt to its former prosperity in that time?
Ok I don’t actually live in the US but the attitude of the people towards their most recent president is shocking. Its all well and good to be remembered as a great president during boom times because nothing goes wrong but Obama was given a steaming pile of …..lets say socks for censorships sake. What did the people really expect? That he would somehow pull the country out of the toilet when he has only been in power for a year? Even though the minimum to take a country out of a recession is 3 for most developed countries.
And the there are people calling him a socialist, and how bad that is. One of the strongest countries in the world, Germany, has adopted many of the traits of a socialist country. Socialism isn’t bad. Its just different. Is it ignorance of the American people that leads them to believe its the Apocalypse?
And on a forum recently there were several HUNDRED comments on how Obama is a dumbass etc for not using The US’ oil reserves. I was truely astonished that people can be that short sighted. In the short run the oil may be cheaper but when it runs out other countries will have the US by the balls. Which is why it is being done the other way around at the moment. And then a few comments even suggested that Palin should be the next President…..my god. She is a fine politician yes but she talks big and gives Obama a slating but that means jack until she is in his position. Politics 101 people.
As for the Guantanamo Bay issue, well at least he is TRYING to keep to his word. Most politicians are all talk but once they get power they just say "Oh I can’t do that,sorry". Yes his administration has missed the deadline but they have made progress towards its eventual closure.
My final gripe is that of the war in the Middle East. I do not agree with this war at all but I can understand that from an economic point of view it would cripple the US economy if he withdrew all the troops.
People it is easy to pin the blame on one man when he is looking after 300 million others, cleaning up the mess of the single most under qualified President of the US ever and trying to juggle these with the everyday issues that arise.
Open your minds.
You said it pal, you don’t live here. We don’t like socialism, big government, arrogant leaders or people that don’t understand limited Constitutional Republics. You may think a "little socialism" isn’t bad, but it never ends there and keeps growing. It’s like a little bit pregnant. No one is blaming Obama for everything, it’s just that he has pushed us pass the tolerant level. He and people like him have finally awakened enough Americans and we want our country back..period. Arm chair liberals (assuming you are that flavor) never get it, America was founded on principles not loved by the left such as our bill of rights. When you mess with our country, people, liberties or attack us (9-11) you personally mess with each one of us and that’s when you get hurt. With all due respect to your beliefs, don’t bash us for your lack of understanding of ours. Have a nice day.
