Keep those blinders on
I have a feeling most of the working class will find out they are not the ones who the wealth is going to be spread TO!
blinders
what is there to sell? this was a prayer that he made publically.
Take your blinders off would ya?
Obama wants to take our troops out of Iraq. He talked about the money we would save by bringing our troops home and instead....they are being shipped to Afghanastan. Are you kidding me? How is THAT supposed to save money?
Bush and Cheney didn't do everything on their own. It was voted upon and our government allowed this. Just like our government is allowing the crap that is happening now. This is bad. We have no money and yet our government keeps spending more and printing more. Our border with Mexico is a mess. We have too many illegals sucking up govermment money. We have politicians wasting money with private jets, etc. with taxpayer dollars.
You can continue to complain about Bush all you want, but Bush isn't in the White House. Bush and the government may have spent 1 trillion during his 8 years, but Obama is doubling that in his first month in office and proposing to spend more. People are losing jobs left and right. Bush wasn't innocent by any means but congress controls the spending and I do believe the dems were in charge of congress the last 2 years of Bush's second term and I didn't see them making any effort to stop the spending and now look at things since the dems have taken over.....all spending.....all the time.......24/7......we are in debt up to our eyeballs but spend more.....it is good for the economy......spend spend spend spend spend.
Pubs are the ones with blinders on.

Time for both sides to take the political blinders off????..............nm

And what about the debt he inheriteed from George W. Bush, take off the blinders......sm
and they say WE have been drinking Kool-Aid? WE had a president who could hardly color inside the lines, was an inarticulate moron, catered to special interests, led us into an unjustfied war with Iraq (HELLO, IT WAS THE TALIBAN/OSAMA IN AFGHANISTAN ON 9/11), we lost all respect around the globe, and he took a balanced budget from President Clinton and got us into trillions of dollars worth of debt, all the while allowing all bhe banking deregulation, feeding the GREED machine in this country. The past administration was a TRAGEDY perpetrated on the American people, so you folks can keep drinking your Republican Red Kool-Aid, keep prematurely judging this president as you lick your lips praying for his failure, which by the way means RUIN for you, me, and the rest of the nation. The man is willing to TRY, to compromise, and he has only been in office barely three weeks. All the harshness against Obama is misdirected anger and pique that the Republicans were ousted. IMHO. Saying stuff over and over DOES NOT MAKE IT SO!!!
sheep
At the end we are all sheep. divided into
Obama sheeples
and
McCain sheeples.
or
GP sheeples
and
Sam sheeples
Go, Obama GP sheeples!
if we were all sheep we would be voting for another
duh
Thankfully they are not sheep and don't all ..sm
vote the same. The republicans could have all voted against it too and won with just a few democrat or independent votes. What is your point? The majority is 1 in the Senate and 12? in the House. My independent senator for one did vote against it.
Have you talked to the sheep? sm
If not, you don't have a substantial argument that beastiality is cruelty to animals.
And yes, homosexuality does hurt people. It hurts parents and siblings and husbands and wives and children whose child or sibling or spouse or mother or father suddenly decides to come out of the closet. Or do their feelings not count?
looks like a bunch of sheep to me living in USA..sm
hmmmmm....? Just because everyone is voting for Barack doesn't make any of it right - they all are bad candidates to some of us......
blechhhhhhhhhhhhh
JMO.........no flames required......
You should know. Obama sheep are pathetic.

Sheep Alert! Oh-baaaaaaaaaaaa-ma!
lol at u!
You both are absolutely right. Sheep(le) will follow each
other right over the cliff and we are heading that way quickly. If it was happening in another country people here would wonder why the citizens are so dense; not here, they just hear the mantra of change, hope and promises (that cannot be kept) and are so addicted the first time they hear it they don't take the time to educate themselves about the possible ramifications until it is too late.
Sheep with flock mentality.

The sheep are supporting Obama because of his

DITTO that......a wolf in sheep's clothing

It never ceases to amaze me of the sheep in this world.

The wolf will come out of his sheep's clothing if he gets elected...
and all his little sheeple followers will finally see him for what he is.
Harriet Miers: Antonin Scalia in sheep's clothing
Harriet Miers: Antonin Scalia in sheep's clothing
October 11, 2005
By nominating Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court, President Bush has put forth a total unknown. A blank slate. A cipher. Not even the president knows where she stands on the issues because he never asked her.
That's what the White House wants you to think. Don't you believe it.
Of course, if you listen to most conservatives, Harriet Miers is as dangerous as a card-carrying member of the ACLU. I'm disappointed, depressed and demoralized, huffed the Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol. Her qualifications for the Supreme Court are nonexistent, puffed former presidential candidate Pat Buchanan.
Nonsense.
Make no mistake about it. This decision is too important. Replacing William Rehnquist with John Roberts was a wash. It's this appointment, to fill the shoes of swing-vote Sandra Day O'Connor, that will determine the future direction of the Supreme Court. Karl Rove never would have let George Bush nominate Miers if he didn't know she agreed with Bush on every issue.
It's not hard to figure out how Bush decided on Miers. If elected president, he promised in 2000, he would appoint to the Supreme Court justices like extreme conservatives Antonin Scalia or Clarence Thomas. John Roberts didn't fit the bill, so Bush knew he had to deliver this time around. But he also knew any one of the names on the conservatives' wish list -- Michael Luttig, Edith Jones or Janice Rogers Brown -- would stir up a firestorm in the Senate, which Bush wanted to avoid.
So Bush came up with Plan B, as brilliant as it is diabolical: Nominate someone who is every bit as conservative as Luttig, Jones or Brown, privately, but who is a complete mystery, publicly. And that's Harriet Ellan Miers. The perfect stealth candidate. Antonin Scalia in sheep's clothing.
In case you still harbor any doubts about her right-wing credentials, here's final proof. After four days of complaints from the far right, Karl Rove got on the phone to leading conservatives, starting with James Dobson, head of Focus on the Family. Rove convinced him to support Miers, Dobson confirmed, by giving him confidential information on her religious beliefs. Miers, like Bush, is an evangelical Christian.
Notice how the White House plays the religion card both ways. It was wrong for Democrats to raise the fact John Roberts is a Catholic, they argued, just one month ago.
Notice also what their doing so tells us about Harriet Miers. She's a soul mate of James Dobson, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. She's anti-choice, anti-stem cell research, anti-separation of church and state, pro-school prayer and pro-teaching intelligent design in public-school science classes. She's way out of the mainstream.
So what are Democrats waiting for? They know enough about Miers already to merit all-out opposition -- including the filibuster, if necessary. And they'd better act fast.
If Harriet Miers is confirmed, we'll be yearning for the good old days of moderate William Rehnquist.

Who you callin' sheep? WE aren't part of the Obama flock which is why
you blast the tea parties and try to downplay their significance. The sentiment behind the tea party is that we shouldn't be part of any flock! We should be thinking on our own. We shouldn't hide behind party lines and blindly follow our politicians to our ruin, republican or democrat!
Geez, talk about totally blind. If it doesn't have a big fat O stamped on it, you won't listen. Just a bunch of freaking robots.... O rhetoric goes in and nothing relevant comes out! I thought you lefties were "intellectuals" and "free thinkers." Now you're just Obama groupies clinging to his empty promise of hope and change! Grow a brain! Exercise your brain cells and THINK!
