He is not poor and he has spent an incredible amount of money to stay out from exposure. It is kinda funny too because he works for the system we call government. If I were to say the amount he has spent to fight releasing his records, some in this country would say so what. It is just shy of two million dollars right now. He once lied on application papers saying he was never known by any other name but since he was a lawyer they let him get away with it. His name used to be legally Barry Soetoro but like Casius Clay or Lou Alcinder he changed. Some Muslim thing I guess. The really sad thing is that one day all the chickens are going to come home to roost.

Job loss...Been there. Done that. Yep, still 'there'. My heart goes out to those still getting 'pinked'.

For me, losing my job was one of those defining moments in life. I knew I had a choice: I could choose to lose my way (my mind) or rise to the challenge and follow what my Spirit tells me to do, always remembering that I am more than a statistic on the news.

I'll share with you what I was told the day I got "set free" (laid off) from my job: "This is a new chapter in your life. WRITE ONE HELL OF A CHAPTER!" And I did just that! Will you?

So if you just need a break from the doom and gloom, let me send you a FREE book download...no strings attached, really!

#1...THE USA IS BANKRUPT thanks to the Obama/Reid/Pelosi mis-quided leftist agenda.

#2...Mortgages, home values and Small-Medium sized businesses were ignored and are now "in-the-toilet" and will take 10ys or more to revive.

#3...JR senator Obama has so undermined the status, cohesiveness and confidence of the American people that WE can't support OUR current "leadership?".

The current "Health-Care" debate is amazing to me considering where we are Economically. IS ANYBODY IN WASHINGTON PAYING ATTENTION to the REAL PROBLEMS?

Stupid question...I should work for FOX news.

and the sooner, the better. Not just to help people find jobs (which IS very important), but also to prove to the electorate that liberals CAN get off their tushies in Washington as needed.

Waiting until some conclude there is no differnce between Democrats and Republicans----is waiting too long.

Consensus-building and bipartisanship are not working, Mr. President. You are trying to be reasonable with people who still want to scrape Roosevelt off the dimes.

A 21st century version of the WPA is the only way to stop the hemorrhaging of jobs triggered by the our latter-day Hoovers. The greed-and-grab political right wing is willing to solve the problem by letting everyone but the privileged few and their servants starve. They are never going to support anything you do, so forget them and get on with rebuilding our nation.

Ummmm . . . you fail to mention the reason the WPA went away was a little thing called World War II, which created plenty of opportunities for all the WPA folks to travel, see the world and, oh yeah, get killed and maimed in places like North Africa, Italy, the South Pacific and France. Just a different kind of government make work, that's all.
