I seem to remember 1 or 2 stimulus attempts by Bush. The $600.00s he sent to working Americans so they would spend it to stimulate the economy, that worked well. I did appreciate the handout though, its very rare that a rep gives handouts! With that being said, it just gives truth to the fact once again that Bush created this mess!

This has nothing to do with cons, liberal. I saw on cnn that Lebanon is sending a flotilla of female activists with medicine to break the Israeli blockade! Really, female Muslim activists! If they act out against their own countries theyll be brutally stoned to death! The next flotilla will be full of children. They know we westerners have a conscience( republicans excluded!) so theyre playing that card! I just realized after re-reading, the word con in consrevative, how ironic! After all this time and proof im just now realizing!

Where it says "Bear ye one anothers burdens", dont you call those handouts? Remember you basically said, "you take care of yours, Ill take care of mine"! Wow, you are such a hypocrit! It sounds to me like it says to help others to fullfill the law of Christ. -
Most definitely. Im proud to say my parents where and still are(dad) very caring and always there for me and my sister. I like the Fox sticker, thats funny. And oh so true! Good night, Im tired.

Wow, you really make your god sound selfish! I dont think my god would have a problem if someone outside my family helped in a time of need. Your making it sound like, you know what, its really not worth my time debating with you about this or any other issue, your like a tape recorder that wont turn off. Or your like the stupid kid that only knows 2 words, handout and responsibility! You say the same stupid, selfish bullshit over and over. Youll be the first to come crying when you need someone or something but it will be OK because it will be for your benefit!

Why dont you start your posts by saying "Welcome to the Glenn Beck program"? Its like you tape the show, study it then put it in your own words. Come on Patty, think for yourself, I know your capable. Hell, when it comes to religion you know more than the pope about Christianity. You said it yourself!

Yah, the other day my wife and I where driving down rt 30 and I saw a bumper sticker that said something about "Oh, so now Im making your mortgage payment"! What really pissed me off was the kid couldnt have been any older than 17-18. I wanted to ask him what the F%$K he knew about politics! Thats what Im talking about when I say I hate republicans. Im just so frustrated with the stupidity. The stupid comments, Its really driving me insane. Its definitely changing me as a person! I used to be "easy going, Happy go lucky", all that bs. Now Im just angry! I turn on the TV I hear hatred, I turn on the radio I hear hatred. Im just so tired of rep politics! Theyre not going to stop until it goes too far, if you know what I mean!

I know this has nothing to do with this board so if others dont want to hear about it dont read. Just to explain how selfless my mother was. In 1998 my girlfriend of about 7 months(now my wife) was graduating from The University of Pittsburgh. I made plans with my parents a couple days ahead to borrow their car because I owned a Nissan truck which was a small vehicle. The day of graduation I met my father around 4:00 pm and we swapped vehicles. We had a great time, an exciting time for my wife. When I finally got home around 11:00pm my sister called me to inform me that my mother had suffered a major heart attack during the earley morning hours that morning(the morning my wifes graduation)and they werent supposed to tell me until after because my mother didnt want to ruin my now wifes graduation from college! Talk about the going from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows! And one of the reasons I know the 10 months she got to spend with my son where her happiest is because my son used to cry when anyone but my wife or I would hold him. She said she would get him to love her if it was the last thing she did. She baby sat for us on Valentines day on 04. When my wife and I got back to the house, she was on my living room floor playing with him, he was rubbing his face all over her head and she asked what he was doing, we told her thats how he shows his love, his way of kissing her. She died a week and a half later, that was the last time she saw my son.

Yah, mayor. He can do alot! BIGGEST problem, Bush 2000-08, devastating is probably a good word to describe him!
-
Patty I think you forgot something, I say I think because I sure as hell aint reading all that. Anyway, you forgot billions and billions of dollars on 2 wars, for what? You tell me what was accomplished by Bush starting 2 wars. It wasnt the billions we've borrowed to fund the war, it cant be the thousands of dead, injured soldiers who came back to this country(if they where lucky enough)to find their jobs had been filled by someone else. So what was accomplished? Your right, Bush got even richer!

Congratulations on the birth of your grandson. I remember when you told us on here. Your husband sees his grandson every day and is very proud Im sure. Did you ever see Its a Wonderful Life? They said on there that people die and become angels who have to do good deeds to earn their wings to get into heaven(Enough Patty, before you chime in, its a movie, I know thats not the way your church says you get to heaven). Maybe your husband is by your grandsons side looking after him. This may sound funny but I remember many incidents where my son should have been hurt but wasnt,(when he was about 2 we had a chest with a lid on hinges, it was open, my son was getting toys out and had both of his hands on the front where the lid would be if it closed, well it closed over both hands but the latch on the front was facing down and caught the side of the chest, thank god just leaving enough space for his hands. There are a few more unexplainable instances.

It just kills me when I hear poor people(middle class in this day and age)say how bad Obama is. They have no reason when you ask, other than he's taxing the hell out of me or he's killing this country! Neither of which he's doing. The infamous 7-11 guy told me yesterday, After saying"No monkey news for you today", which is how he greets me every day that he doesnt have any problems with what Obama has done so far other than forcing him to buy healthcare, he said "the n^&*(* didntb take my guns away like I thought! Just shows you people hate him for more reasons than not supposedly doing a good job! My wife got embarrassed today at Hoss's resturant. She asked me why I was being so bitter today and I kinda said loudly that I hate republicans! It was the one on S. Main St. in Greensburg, so(Cleosmom) you can imagine why she was embarrassed, all the red neck republicans in this area! I actually felt like I was eating dinner with the cast & crew from "Deliverence" or the Walmart crowd! By the way, I remember awhile ago talking to you about your situation with your dr. and also your husband(2 seperate issues)and Im sorry you and he had to go through that. Its a very, very hard way to watch someone have to end their life. Ive had a few family and friends go through that also and it really leaves a lasting impression on you! To me that has to be the hardest way to lose someone you love! I dont know if you ever fully "get over" someone you love dying, I deal with it by trying to block it out, not talking about it.

"We the people" are this country. It is our responsability to "carry the burden" but when its run right its not a burden to anyone! Think about it, you yap all the time about how you scrimped and saved and worked million hour weeks to get where your at, if a thief robbed you of your money you worked so hard to earn, you would have to figure out how to recoop that money Now, insert BUSH where I typed thief, what the f$%^s the difference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When Clinton ran this country I didnt feel any burden, only when a rep is in office and sends our troops all over the globe to kill and be killed for their profit, is when I feel burdened. You people always refer to Reagan as being a great pres. I really dont remember anything he did except bombing Panama, Libya and probably others. Do you see a theme here? Clinton will go down as one of the best presidents(dont interpret "going down" to mean anything other than the way its used!(sorry I felt the need to explain).

In 96 my grandfather(mothers dad) had a stroke during an operation because of mini-strokes. My mother wanted to keep him home to care for him. After consulting with people at a nursing home she decided to put him there, they convinced her it would be too much for her to handle on her own. She had a sister who didnt do much for anyone else but expected help from others when in need and my mother was always there for her, in fact when she had the heart attack in 98 she told my dad if something happened to her for him to look after my aunt. My mother was the main caretaker(oldest child) always cooking and doing for my grandfather and everyone else. In Sept. of 98 my grandfather passed away. In Dec. of 98 my mother suffered a major heart attack(arent they all major). I believe going there everyday for two years and seeing him in that condition took its toll. She always worried about everything and everyone, almost to a fault. She would go play the piano for the residents of the home, they looked forward to it every week. She even kept going after my grandfather died. She passed away in March of 04 at age 57. Way too young. It was the worst day of my life, multiplied by thec fact that she was a school secretary and always had funny stories to tell about the kids at school. She only had 10 months to spend with her only grandchild, my first son! The good thing is, I know they where the best 10 months of her life. She used to visit my aunt before work in the mornings(my dads sister), my aunt always tells me "all she ever talked about was my son and how proud she was. Sorry for all the info., everyone has similar and even worse problems but my point is, its hard for anyone to have to go through these kinds of problems and just adding proof to Cleos point. Whats wrong with some kind of help from the gov. Patty? We work so hard to make this the best place on earth, why not have help? You reps are hanging on to the word "handout", but Im sure theyre not handouts when they benefit you!! Right now people who are having money problems arent all "poor" people who have never "gotten off their asses to do anything". I work for alot of people every day, mainly people who have money, or had. This recession is affecting everyone Patty, so the rich people who actually "did something" to contribute dont deserve handouts either or isnt it considered handouts if your rich, or where? Its not our fault we had an incompetent president who gave all the rights to the big corps, credit companies, and most of all health insurers and said "screw the middle class"! Look where it got us. Dont blame Obama. The short time hes been in office hes done alot more to help everyone, even the rich. So go listen to Hannity and Beck spew hatred about Obama and dems. Meanwhile those milliomaires who dont have the same worries as you and I are making their millions off idiots like you who believe everything they say! Trust me, Ive been there and thank god I see differently!

Because I have the best parents in the world!

The gov was put in financial restrain under Bush. Now the gov has to rely on us to rebuild ourselves back to being a strong nation. You people said if you didnt tax big corp they would come back to this country, where are they? And with a country this big theres never going to be 100% fiscal responsability! Is it your neighbors fault his company downsized due to technology he probably helped create? Is it his fault his co. layed him off because of the recession? Whats he supposed to do if there are no "handouts" to help he and his family survive during these hard times? You reps keep babbling about "handouts"(and you all do it, I hear it in TV, radio every day). The situation we're in is very tuff because its like the "which came first, the chicken or the egg"? We need peoplec to spend money and for business to hire to get through this recession but theyre both waiting for the economy to pick up first! Then with you reps preaching gloom and doom every day doesnt help consumer confidence but youd rather the economy collapse so you can get back into office. Two of the main causes for the recession are the two wars we're fighting in! One one of which we should have never started and the other we should have been out of years ago! We cant keep spending billions of dollars a month to support these two wars. There where alot of other reasons also but I believe these are the main problems. Bush had us go into Iraq under false beliefs thinking it would be 2-3 months like the first gulf war then didnt have a plan in place to account for the insurgency. From the begining there where questions about the # of troops. We had over 500,000 troops in the first gulf war, we had maybe 1/3-1/2 that # in this war. W was a very incompetent president who ruined this country! I remember war planners saying we needed more troops but Bush and Chaney and a few of their military buddies disagreed, now who was right and who was wrong? If your going to overthrow a country you should have adequate forces to provide security so the situation doesnt cause a power vacume. Bush thought they could use Iraqis to provide security, you see how it all worked out so far. We will come out of this and it will be considered a success but if we had taken more time to plan, we could have saved thousands of lives Im sure! Why cant you see its the reps who know nothing about financial responsability? Clinton came into office having to clean up the first gulf war. Then he left office with a surplus! Then came Bush, NUF SAID!!!! Now Obama is having to clean up 2 messes of wars which where poorly planned and executed and you act like hes the problem because you disagree with his policies even though theyre working. Are there ups and downs yes but over all his Ideas are working. Believe me when theres a down moment you guys pounce on it like a pride of lions on a wildabeast(I cant believe I used the words pride and reps in the same sentence) and never seem to aknowledge the ups! Most importantly, can you say hi without bringing god into the conversation? There are many different religions represented in this country, why is your god having input? Thank god you will never run this country, any imput you have is too much! You come on here preaching religion and how you fostered children, let me stress, black children or child, its very impiortant we know that point. Really your a cold-hearted(you fill in the blank)who only thinks of herself which in very unchristian like!!! Anyhow, enjoy the rest of your weekend, which Im sure your spending either fostering children, handing out food at the foodbank, or working your hands to the bones!

2 or 3 examples would have been enough! We didnt need the whole 500, page book. Do you really think anybody is reading this? Im so tired of scrolling past it to get to the next post!
-
Ya, Im so tired of hearing private, public, private. Hey Patty, a job is a job. Id take a gov job over private any day.
-
Everything Patty says is out of touch with reality. The scarey thing is there are many more just like her!

We as Americans sacrifice every day of our lives by working harder and longer than any other place on earth. We are the richest, most technologicaly advanced and the most powerful country on earth because of our hard work. Although you(Patty) make it sound like we're a bunch of deadbeats standing around waiting for our country to offer handouts, I call it reaping the rewards of our sacrifices and hard work, why shouldnt the end of someones life be made easier by the country(government)that person worked so hard to help create. Face it Patty, this is the best place on earth. Thats why everyone wants to be here. Its not all gloom and doom like you want everyone to believe!

Bill Gates could support the whole country for 5 years, what the hell does that mean?

Could you please repeat that?

As much as Id like to take credit, I just read your post and was responding about GM, Chrysler, your post is the first I read about this.

I was just watching Faux News(Hannity). He had (Rep)Meg Whitman, Calif. senator I believe. She said Calif. needs help that theyre broke! She also said she has plans to improve Calif. economy by using more technology and less manpower! Total opposite of what you reps preach(Patty)Asking for handouts(needing help financially) and cutting jobs by using technology instead of manpower. Talk out of both ends as usual you rep hypocrits!!!
