Obama: Rapido, Rapido, Rapido

November 10, 2008 07:43 AM ET | James Pethokoukis | Permanent Link | Print

From Obama's radio address over the weekend: "We can’t afford to wait on moving forward on the key priorities that I identified during the campaign, including clean energy, healthcare, education and tax relief for middle-class families. We also need a rescue plan for the middle class that invests in immediate efforts to create jobs and provides relief to families watching their paychecks shrink and their life savings disappear.”

Me:  Get ready, as I have been saying, for the "Big Bang."

How Dump is Sarah?

About as dump as you are when you can't spell DUMB

President-Elect Obama is not in office yet, give him a chance to make good on his agenda. The Bush administration took 8 years to get us into this mess. Getting out of it will not happen over night. Maybe you think that the McCain/Palin ticket would have been better for this country. Did you not see and hear of all the bickering in the McCain camp. How dump is Sarah, too dump to be President. Thank God Obama/Biden ticket prevailed.

It's the economy - Stupid!!!

It’s the Economy? Working for the Middle Class?

First priority – dealing partisan issues that will keep all the left-wing supporters happy; executive orders on stem cell research (after all the research, still no break through, just hopes) and domestic drilling for oil and natural gas (gas prices are going down why drill?). Did he not learn anything from the first year of the Clinton administration? Why not just take on gays in the military?

What about the economy?

What about the new tax plan?

What about health care for all?

What about getting the troops out?

Not really that important now that I am elected

Used Car Salesman + gullible American voters = hard times ahead.

Good job America!
