10% county unemployment, not counting part-timers and self-employed, which was a lot of our construction workers.
lee county led the nation in forecloseures last year.
This whole city is shut down - everyone watching him on TV - everyone packing roads to see him drive past.
They've been interviewing ppl all morning about who can't find a job. Obama's speaking to a city of really desperate people.

And Barry O will save them all......this is how Hitler got started.
-
Steele on FNC asked DNC Chair Kaine why Obama needed Republicans to vote for the pork-laden bill. Steele made the point that the Democrats have the votes they need to pass it without anymore Republicans - so why is Obama making a plea for Republicans to vote for it. Because Democrats want to share the blame when it tanks the economy even more. They want it to look like a bi-partisan failure.

he is giving the same exact speech he gave yesterday almost word for fuking word.

very true i dont think the reps will filabuster this bill so they could get it passed without them.

Give em enough rope to hand themselves. This may well work in the short term...or not as we've seen with Tarp...either way Repubs win. The nation gets better or Barry n'O' fails.

Massa massa, save us oh great massa.
Pathetic. Obama aint doing squat for you clowns.
You need to pick up and move if it is that bad.

A older woman named Henrietta just stood up and asked a question. She said she doesn't need parks and recreation. She needs help with her home. "Help us". Something along those lines.
An emotional moment. Obama walked down and hugged her, and said his staff would contact her. I think she's going to be an ongoing national story.

My God is this pathetic.
Why not tell this woman to "man up" for lack of a better term and tought it out like people in the past did?

250 tickets went to people who waited all night in line.
1250 tickets were dispersed to community organizations, local politicians, etc

I'm sure "Man Up!" would have played well with Americans.

What a sad sack of people. Instead of listening to this drivel, they should be hitting the pavement knocking on doors, making phone calls, calling temp agencies, etc.
I have no pity for people who wont help themselves and would rather put their faith in the slave master like Obama than their own self.
Pathetic.

You know what, its the only message that is truthful. But you dont want the truth.
You want to be coddled by a pied piper liar who says what you want to hear.

Message is loud and clear to me. Shit, I'm not getting any $ from Obama.
I'm just hoping it'll stop my city from collapsing. I wish you could drive down my streets. 3/4 of the homes on every block have foreclosure locks on teh door. Garbage and racoons all over. Empty storefronts everywhere. Crime is sick. Home invasions and all that...
it sucks here. I'm tired of seeing it. I don't care if Obama takes $X from millionaires who are used to tax cuts, and uses it to create 100X jobs. These folks can't work, and the city I live in is turning to shit as a result.

Move.

Move.
LOL x2
if its that bad 240 move towns...why is it that 3/4 of the houses are being foreclosed on ppl not live within their means?
-
Move.
All my family and friends live here. Weather is nice too.
I'd prefer we try to FIX things, rather than just abandon them.
Besides, if you keep abandoning these places, it ends up becoming cities of vagrants - leads to crime, infestation, disease, etc, and eventually it'll spill over into your suburb.

Some lived beyond their means.
Others were well within their means - when they had a job.
Our entire economy is based upon tourism and construciton - and both are dead.

If I were you, I would start a small cleaning/maintenance company and contact all the banks who own the foreclosures.
Charge a small monthly fee for upkeep etc and you will make $$$$$ very quickly.

well maybe your city should diversify tourism lulls and construction can only go on for a limited amount of time so this was bound to happen to your city sooner or later...again you should probably move.
-

Charge something like $50 - $100 a month or whatever. Put a brochure together and get on the phone.
You can even look up other companies that do this and get sub-contract work from them.
Take the initiative. Dont wait for anybody and make the first step.

U'll also need to get licensed and insured which is minimal. This is a good idea. My GF has her own cleaning business and I'm going to suggest this to her. She used to do plenty of new builds, I guess this is the reverse.

See, I have a heart and try to teach people how to fish, not just give them the catch of the day.

Shocking example of Conservative thinking and u didn't even disparge a minority or take food from a baby.

When I started my business, I literally had school debt and $700 to my name, no clients, nothing.
I hit the pavement, made phone calls, etc. I tried, I really pushed open doors and took the initiative.
Now, I am getting busier by the day. It was tough, but I know how to get beyond these brain funks that stop people from acting.
Its all a mindset.
I am not a brain surgeon. But I do have street smarts, perseverance, and initiative.
-
Hard work does not equal happiness...handout from Barry O do. Oh and U better not take a bonus this year 3.

Start the business I told you and you can hire her to go sweep and clean.

that's very cool. I *used* to be that way, until i saw the city crapping out around me. I realize that, fair or not, you gotta help some folks. you let them die on the street and they turn into diseased criminals very quickly.

I dont make Wall Street money. I do ok, but nothing like those banksters.

Plus u live in NYC so whatever u make just doesn't translate everywhere except maybe the Left coast.

No kidding.
I am not a money freak BTW. I like my freedom in working for myself and value that over the higher salary I could make working for a large law firm.
I also like working at my own pace and not be a corporate slave and tool.
Plus, not many companies want to a hire My Cousin Vinny to be in their corporate suites.

I watched the press conferance for about three minutes.As soon as I heard those dummies screaming "AMEN.AMEN BROTHER" as though they were in a black church,I cant take it seriously.They are clowns.

It friggen shocks me that nobody see's the similarities between this and Nazi germany or any of the other cults of personality we've had.

This is like a nightmare that I wrote and filmed....its worse then I thought possible.

Dude - dont you remember only a few months ago how bad I was attacked for my thoughts about Obama being a cult leader????
What we saw today was perfect evidence of this. Truly embarassing and disturbing.
He fed rigt into it too. Rather than tell these people to man up and get tough, he told them what they wanted to hear.
-
He sucks.....its unreal. And behind the scenes, the libs are pushing through a ton of bullshit. Our foreign policy is in the hands of doves and human rights morons.

Have you no sense of honor man? This sounds like a bunch of Robin Hood bullshit right here. The government has no business in redistributing wealth! In fact its unconstitutional!
Hey man ................he has more $$$ than me thats not fair...waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaah...sniff sniff......give us some! Die rich mutha fukas!
All liberals are bedwetting pukes.
