I really do think they owe us an apology because we looked up the facts and gave them the information and yet they blindly followed the "leader".
The money that was lost due to the high risk loans came out of our children's college funds and our retirement accounts. We are punished that did things the right way and paid our bills and our mortgages. I have my own family to provide for I shouldn't have to provide for those that aren't responsible to do things the right way.

Not everyone who voted for him 'blindly followed the leader'. They DID research and apparently liked what he was proposing and some of them even still agree with his approach.

Oh and where are all the people who posted in one of the 'pre election' threads that they were leaving the country if Obama won??

Yes they did. They listened to what he said and only heard the parts they wanted to hear. They listened to what he said, but didn't look to see what he had DONE. This is all in line with what he did (and attempted to do) as an IL senator.

How many times before the election did I hear "Oh he says that, but he won't do that". Guess they were wrong.

Hope they agree with tripling their energy bills, because that's what's about to happen.

Owe you guys an apology? For what? LMAO puleeeeese... I choose not to respond to any of this "stuff' because I am afraid of my eyes getting stuck in the top of my head from rolling them so many times.. I also did my research before I voted and I am not ashamed of my president. There is always time for that though seeing how he has only been in office a month ffs.

An apology HAHAHAA ..That's rich

So which one of you are leaving the country?

A lot of people were quiet and made their decisions. The ones that went to either extreme were the ones that bugged me.

Yeah and that is/was cool. But you have people like SurferGirl who thinks all dems are uneducated and didn't sit down and really think about who they were choosing.. Sorry, Homey don't play clown games. I am an educated woman.

I had to choose between a old dried up dude who has a Napoleon Complex and HAS to ride the coattails of daddy and grampa (and who by the way crashed 4 planes.Can't handle a simple thing like a plane but he is going run the country? uh no) and a nut job from Alaska, or Obama and Obiden (heh)

And I chose Obama.. McCain and palin are a non issue AFAIC since they lost the election..
Obama still has time to disappoint me. Like I said he has only been in a MONTH ffs.

Well I guess we'll all see but so far I'm not impressed with Obama. I don't see anything of value he's done so far except get us in a deficit we'll probably never get out of. Oh but according to him before his term is up he'll have paid most of it off. Yeah I'm not holding my breath waiting for that to be done.

Well I hope that all of you that were for obama like the results you'll see in your retirement accounts. This whole economic crisis started with those high risk loans you know the ones that we will have to help out with our tax money. We already paid way too much with the loss of value in our stocks, especially those of us that had some stocks in banks. Then obama keeps telling people we are in a real crisis and the stock market keeps falling. Not really a very good leader is he. It almost seems like he is determined to cause a complete economic collapse.

I'm just a mom fighting for my families safety and security.

Not to toot our own horns here but my DH's retirement account could buy me 4 more of the house I am in... No joke. We paid for both my car and his BMW in cash.. No joke. I am not a bit worried. It's secure. Very secure.... You can say "you don't really know it's secure" Um yeah. I do

Obama didn't cause the economic hardships, nor did he cause the housing bubble to burst..Greedy aholes who took the loans caused this. As did the banks. They effed up and now our administration has to take charge b/c they damn well can't undo all the crap they caused .Obama has been in for 1 month. One. Rome wasn't built in a day you know..

No sh!t we are in a real crisis. Obama is just parroting what we all know. It wouldn't matter how he got us out of this situation (which again he did not cause) People will just whine to whine

Fighting? How? By whining about an administration that you didn't vote in on a message board? Yeaaaahhh that's fighting alright *snort

I am also a mom who "does" instead of "whines". But whatever.....
