obama is a dumb ass black. all he has done is temporarily lessened the problem because of how much he has increased the national debt. All he has done is 'borrowed' his way to a temporary fix and in the future we will be right back to square one with more national debt than before.

Wrong. They ALL help rich people.

HTH

And are these the same economists who refused to admit we were in a recession in the first place?

While we're near the bottom - or what *should* be the bottom - the recession is by no means OVER when approximately 1 in 5 people are out of work.

unemployment is still high.. you can call it a "jobless recovery". basically since the goverment owns gm now , they are just pumping/printing money into the stockmarket while unemployment is high

everyone should listen to 680 am to the call ins and such you will see how much of a bastard obama is

the key for the liberals is to have total government control this way we the people depend fully on the governement

all they have to do is ammend a few things on health care not change the whole damn system making it all gov control

honestly, yes
he is passionate about it and has survived in the industry for 20 years

he is also really cool and want's the rest of his trainers (he is also the fitness director) to be busy as well

Are you implying that if Matt T was full white, he would be a lot smarter?

Why is this MattT guy so concerned with American politics? Isn't he a canadian dullard?

Because Obama is black and it makes him feel better about himself.

i like obama and voted for him but you are making a statement that is Purely objective and has no proof. Atleast post some stats or something

the comment you made is the equivalent to me saying "Jean Claude Van Damme is the Greatest movie actor of the mid 90's"- purely subjective

But Van Damme IS the greatest actor of the mid 90's and 80's. Can't beat Kickboxer, Bloodsport, Double Impact, and Universal Soldier, just to name a few.

If by "help poor people" you mean make them dependent on government for generations then you are correct. Welfare, handouts, "Obama saved us!" [quote from ignoramus receiving the recent $200 gifts the gov handed out yesterday], etc...but imo both parties are completely and utterly screwed up and the whitehouse needs to be gutted. reset.

As far as Debussey & MethodGNA: imo Obama and friends, aren't so much into an evil agenda as they have massive hubris and god complexes - they believe they know better than anyone else and believe they are truly helping things. But are too far from reality living in their fantasy lands to know how fuxkd up they really are.

Bush may have benefit the rich, sure. But the government (is it Obama's fault? who knows) is screwing both rich and poor. Are you poor and want to buy a $500 used car? Sorry, you're out of luck now that CARS removed so many clunkers from the streets, you have to pay $2500 for that "rare" clunker now. And since all those old parts are also destroyed (within 6 months - it's the law) you can't find many old parts anymore -- again, the "rare" ones are going for a premium on ebay now. Oh and don't forget that now that people can get $4500 cash, they aren't giving any away of their cars to the charities - so oops, screw the poor again...help the environment? not really with that mad solvent injected into the engines to completely destroy it, and premature waste generation...

...oh and when they revoke charitable donation tax write offs (since it helps the rich because they give the most -- an irony in itself) there will be even fewer donations.

Just two examples...no, the government is not helping poor people...or rich.

We are in the eye of the storm. Next year Adjustable rate mortagages and commercial ones will fall hard. More jobs are still being lost, and we are printing money until kingdom come. 2010 will be the worst year and by 2012 half the mortgages will be under water. Obama inherited a mess that took 30 years to create, and will take many more years to solve. Don't fool yourself into thinking we're out of this mess. Only the subprime mess has passed and it alone leveled us. Save your cash! Great Depression 2.

Matt T, obama can only do so much. he's a mouth piece, not a dictator with absolute rule. You aren't factoring world economics at all ( I doubt you have any understanding of economics).
