Obama is on a roll

[Ollie]

For those of you that thought and still think people like me are just being paranoid.
That Obama is actually looking out for the little people, listening to the people and governing by the will of the people.

BS, he is a socialist liberal. He will take over you life and he will use big dollar donaters and liberal action groups to do it.

Elitism at it's best.

He's just like the CEO's he's kicking out... double the national budget in 5 years, triple it in 10?? Then what? Then he walks away with his golden parachute. If he is still alive and in office at the end of his first term, then somehow gets re-elected for a second term and is still alive, I bet he's the first president in history to go for a third term.

FDR already did it

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't the 2 term limit placed after FDR?

 

[woodzy]

O yeah. Belay my last. Early.

22nd amendment, 1951.

With wwII roaring he easily won his third term. Makes you wonder what would have happend, say the US didn't enter the war. Would the depression continued? His Highness is emulating FDR during his first term to a T. Excessive spending on quesitonable causes and work programs. The real question is where will WW3 be?

Having less than 5% of your own activists sign a petition is unimpressive and perhaps evidence that adding $9.3 trillion to the deficit alarms even some of Mr. Obama's most fervent supporters.

wow, sounds like congress is about to revolt...I can image the pressure to sign his budget is enormous!


members of congress will be getting their allys in line before they uniformaly deny the presidents desires. I hope


either that or the whole works goes up in a ball of flames

 

[Ollie]

Our one hope is that Obama, Palosi and Reid bite off SO much that even their own party revolts.

The moderate democrats are starting to get REAL skittish.
That is why Obama has pulled out ALL the stops to try and force them in line.

 

[Wolfrun]

All of the democrat congressmen and senators are also getting the message from back home that lock stepping with BO doesn't bode well for re election in 2010. Looks like our friend Senator Dodd may be all done in Cn.

 

[Ollie]

Dodd, Palosi, Reid, pretty much every leading dem is in trouble.
People voted for change and got WAY more than they bargained for.

Yes. FDR was actually elected to 4 terms but died before he could finish his 4th term.
