Irony...actually not

Personally, I could care less who gets it done as long as it gets done. I'm tired of hearing about who did what to whom. Let's hope everyone rallies together regardless of political affiliation.

This really depends on what your definition of "it" is. If it's raise my taxes and nationalize healthcare, grow govt, and legalize illegal immigrants, then I hope it doesn't get done. Now, if you mean lower taxes, and stay outta my business as well as others, then I'm with you.

I watched it, guess that's what all that overtime I put in is for. Since you're posting on here, that's technically not working either!

I thought someone would say that a lot sooner.

I like to call it MultiTasking.

True. There are two beliefs on how to stimulate the economy.

1. Increase taxes > increase gov't spending > increase employement = Better economy.

2. Decrease taxes > increase citizen's spending capacity = Better economy

I believe in #2, because extra cash gets spent in the markets and development.

Did anyone see Aritha Franklins singing of "My Country 'Tis of Thee"? Was it me or was that the worst singing of the song that you have ever heard?

I was sitting in the conference room thinking about that hat when she was singing and asking myself "Can that bow get any bigger?"

If I spend my money on a chinese made TV set, then some would argue it is better to give it to the government...at least then it stays here.

But I personally favor #2.

I am actually in favor balancing the budget, something Bush seemed to have no interest in. He somehow asked the American people to spend billions on a war and never once asked us to pay for it.

I have no idea how Obama can do what he says he will do since he has promised a modest tax increase and a huge increase in expenditures without any cuts. Mathematically, it just seems to not add up to me. I am still disgusted that the American people seem to think it is possible.

I agree that its impossible. Clinton in his first term did a good job with the budget. He did it by decreasing gov't spending. You look at all the corporations that succeed in tough times, and there #1 priority is cost control/reduction.

The majority of those cuts were from the defence dept, and look what happened 9 months after he left office!
