If he's an idiot, I can't imagine what that makes you and me.

What makes him sooooooooo intelligent...his schooling?
If so then he needs to go back and study up on economics!
He sinking this country in debt and all the liberal fools are singing his praise but that his plan..debt on top of debt...thats how you control a population...very simple tactic.

Collectively the truly wealthy people in the world control somewhere around 20 or 30 Trillion dollars and they sit on it while we argue about one measly Trillion in the largest economy the world has ever known. Do any of you have a sense of irony? Obama's spending? So millions should die like dogs in the street so the fat cats can keep their tax shelters? There is no way Obama can do better without sompletely scuttling the Constitution and seizing some corporate assets and suspending private ownership. This he is clearly unwilling and/or unable to do. As was said, it is laughable to continue to pin this Socialist label on someone who is so far from truly Socialist. It doesn't make Obama stupid or incompetent it actually is more a reflection on those who continue to post such inanity.

People are afraid.

Afraid because he is different from them.

They look for a reason to hate then listen to Hannity, Rush and Levin and before you know it the hordes have pitchforks, burning branches and are hitting the city-data forums.. simple really. All borne out of fear and stoked by the aforementioned right wing voices.

Affraid......no....scared yes...because he thinks giving money away is going to do anything to spur the economy....If it works, it works for a few months....then bam...back in a bigger hole...but liberals cant figure this out.

Anyone who thinks this clearly has absolutely no idea what a socialist really is. He's about as socialist as Winston Churchill was German.

Should have had the answer:

"Because he continually exploits and oversteps the limitations of the Constitution as outlined in the enumerated powers of the federal government"

Eitherway, I don't "hate" him.
