Like Obama said, if people could afford it they would buy it, well hell, he is insane if he thinks people can now afford it, lol. One weekend to get TARP done, one year no, not one piece of financial reform. They are part and parcel to it all, re-inflate home prices or states will go bankrupt. The money problems are truly insane and people go on as if nothing is really that much of a problem. Remember the Alamamo, well, Remember every time oil goes over 100 dollars a barrell we will be back in a reccession, the whole economy was built on cheap oil and now that Bernanke has flooded the world with dollars, all people did was buy oil with it. God Bless Our Soles, because the ones in power are either cluelss or part of the problem.So, I saw the guy on TV tonight and decided to visit the site.

it seems all the sites are the same, yes we can yes we can help, yes yes yes yes yes we need money

rather than do the right thing people incentivized by money and only money

It seems that no matter how loudly we speak, our voices are not heard. We MUST have a public option, or Medicare part E (for everyone). What more do we need to do, as citizens of the United States?

Since then, the republican party will do whatever the conservatives tell them to do. The Democratic party takes us progressives for granted. I know this speech is enough to make some feel warm and fuzzy. We always do enough to make life more bearable. That is because our way is the right way. One time in our history, life was bad enough for the country to hand over the reigns to a liberal(FDR). As a result, a middle class was born. If we do just enough now to make life a little better, they will take credit (The conservatives). I think that things must get far worse to wake people up.
