I’m afraid Obama is right. We are going to have to make some painful sacrifices.. I don’t know how I can stop crying when I say this, its just so painful for me… But.. were gonna have to let Obama go as president. Yup, good bye obama. We’ll miss you. /joke
Sadly they have not done any. So you are right it is another one of his “Do as I say, Not as I do.” Obama represents the reason socialism has never worked, they want the people to make all the sacrifices and be “equal” no matter their contribution to society and yet the people in control of the government be elitist that get all the perks and make no sacrifice while dictating to everyone else what should be done.
He is going to TAX Gas, and LIVING! We are going to have to SACRIFICE OUR MONEY! Obama is about to take over Private Industry – he is in the PROCESS RIGHT NOW! Today at GM! Wagoner Gone? He was the ONE who could have SAVED GM – Now – No One knows.
Is this what America Wanted? I don’t think so!
We NEED – Common Sense – Honesty – Term Limits for Congress and To Talk to Each Other without Blame.
Peace to All and God Bless! Jane.
he’s just letting you know in advance that you will suffer from his decisions and wants you to think that it is for the best……the more you suffer, the more you need government…that is what caused the US to stand up and fight against the british for…Independence of their control……now we have the control of democrats……same thing…..so suffer we will…….
You will see in a very short time,with all the lies he ahas told, your tax’s will be increased to 75-80% of your pay. This is not far off. What will we do, have no idea.Already cigarettes with an additional tax of $1.01 per pack, what will be next. The cap and trade will raise your utilities to $3000.00 per year. It is all coming. (by the way I am a non- smoker). Look up “Consequence Management Response Force”. The government will create chaos, so the troops will move in and take over. Get prepared you don’t have long.
This is how the statists govern. They tell the masses what do to, where to go, how to act…all but themselves.
It’s also what is unbelievable. How come there are only some that see this? Is this what everyone wants in this country? Damn, wake the hell up people.
He allows us to call him Mr. President instead of Your Holiness, The Messiah. I think that that is a great sacrifice for someone with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
I agree that we need to sacrifice-we need to sacrifice him!
No need to sacrifice when the government will bail you out. Obama is an idiot.
He’s taking on the hardship of throwing lavish parties with $100/pound beef every Wednesday for us. He’s such a trooper.
many in Congress have been forced to pay their Taxes…..
They didn’t make any sacrifices.
Maybe he could give up the silk suits an maybe the Special Olympics Bowling Alley to start.
he “sacrificed” our hard earned money to “bailout” a lot of GREEDY corps…..
he’s sacraficed part of the greatest …
nevermind, lets just leave it at: he’s done nothing good
You got it. Do you think he would drive a hybrid over flying in the jet?
none and they never will.
as long as the world is full of greed, were screwed…deal lol
Our hard earned tax dollars..
I don’t see how you people can watch a couple episodes of FOX news and suddenly call yourselves economists. Then again the internet is full of these types.
I also don’t see why your question really matters as you will simply pick the best answer as the one who agrees with you the most.
(Reality has a liberal bias) actually gave an example that not only answered your question but was true. Yet it got 6 “thumbs down.” Apparently you people are so desperate to hold onto the notion of being right that you have rejected reason and knowledge from current events.
How does comments like “He is an idiot” prove anything?
Congratulations, you have found a few people that agree with your uneducated conjectures regarding politics. What now?
Everyone who joined his administration took a huge pay cut just by taking a government salary.
He froze the pay of his top staff.
He imposed limits on lobbying after government service (this will cost people a lot).
