When actually your just protecting something that you have become dependent on, and without it, your economy would collapse. Its war that's killing your economy, how can you honestly justify spending billions every week in countries half way around the world? Don't you think your economy would be alot better off if you where spending billions every week on your economy for the past 8 years instead of in Iraq & Afghanistan?
FYI- if you look at all major superpowers in the history of the earth, it's war that kills economy and leads to the transfer of superpowers among nations, approx every 75-100 years. |
I know this sounds really gay and cliche...but i really want world peace.

| I say we wait. Not going to know until the ball gets rolling eh? Condemning it or praising it should wait until one of us steps in line. Speculation gets us nowhere... |

i agree that we won't really know what happens until things are implemented. it's too bad that alot of stuff doesn't start until 2014 or later. It is also too bad that social security, medicare/medicaid, and almost EVERY thing run by the government goes over budget. My problem is that it seems like welfare. I pay 93$ a month for health insurance. IMO that aint half bad. I don't think it's right to make someone pay for another person; which taxes are already used to do anyway. Oh, and i would gladly pay for some welfare case to have an abortion. I think there should be a limit on how many kids you can have if you're on welfare. Hell for that matter even if you aren't. Our world cannot sustain so much life. It's taken thousands of years to get to 6 billion people, and there's going to be about 10 bil. in the next 15 years or so. i guess I"ll just have to follow the words of the dude, "chickity china the chinese chicken it."
p.s. I am a fiscal conservative and socially moderate. Also a conspiracy theorist.

mojo, Honestly birthrates are VERY low right now. So low that our generation is going to be getting less and less if any social security at all because there will be so little payed into the common pot of it all.
I dont know about regulating that communistic. Also i dont understand why anyone things this reform isnt communistic, you can get fined or do jail time if you dont pay for this health care. People think they are going to be getting free stuff, not sure where everyone is pulling this out of their ass from.... Can some1 tell me? |

We will definitely have to wait and see what happens. Who knows, there is the chance that by the time this health care goes into full swing,however far into the future,and it turns out to be terrible it would be be around election time and whoever gets voted in, if not Obama, will get rid of it. I am going to say that I will try to not injure myself any time soon. Haha. And we never know, this may actually be a good thing.  |

There is no way Obama will have a 2nd term, no possible way. January 20, 2013 will be the end of an error.

| Just an opinion. He is the US president so i will respect him but I feel hes just a poster boy for some sceeving politicians in the background coming up with all the ideas and scripts for him to read. I think that there are some changes that he will do that will benefit this country and some will not. But yea I dont particularly care for him. |

price.dan, so we shouldnt care about the other world politics? soo next world war we shouldnt come in and help the world stay away from totalitarian, nazism, and dictatorships? sometime isolationism isnt the best way, especially when your one of the worlds superpowers.
all i have to say is this new socialist way of govt.(and dont tell me its not socialist) were trying to create is some sketchy ground with blurred lines between a good idea and killing someone because they dont agree with the goverenment. (exageration) |

Well, he kind of is...as was Bush and Clinton and Bush before that. Obama's administration runs things...not Obama all on his own.
As far as Obama's re-election, if things are better in a few years than they are now and the Republicans send someone like Palin to battle it out with Obama then he'll definitely still be president.

Once again more proof that Fox News is not a news organization, but instead a GOP/Republican far right-wing disinformation propaganda outlet. If you haven't seen these, then you're still living in the dark.

This is clear evidence that Fox News is a Republican propaganda outlet.
Republicans & Democrats should be outraged!
This is un-American to its core.
Fox "News" isn't just biased, its a 24/7 disinformation campaign that shames our great country...
Its also shameful that most of the MSM lets FNC get away with it, which makes them accomplices.
MSNBC just debunks the disinformation. Also, they have more than a couple of right wingers with their own shows, unlike Fox.
