I think everybody would agree that Bush and Republican congress over spent. That being said, it looks like Obama is determined to make Bush look like a cheapskate.
Bush's spending amounted to $12,000 per family. Obama's spending is $36,000 per family. Well, read the whole thing: http://www.nationalreview.com/excheq...-expected-type |

all the people who criticized the Bush spending? I took some time to read through some of the archives and do not see those names here anymore.
I wish they would come back here and explain why it is alright for Obama and the dems to spend 3 times what Bush spent. |

Your question about the lack of those who wholeheartedly and with great passion supported President Obama during the primary and the campaign is one that I dont quite understand. I suppose...either they are ONLY interested when the party tells them to be interested (campaigns).....they have given up on Obama totally and have nothing to say in defense, or ALL the verbage was due to the hate for George Bush ! Now, even for me who totally opposed Obama's philosophies, some of the criticism is sort of exaggerated and out of context (however if I made that point during the primary/campaign I was told that was politics) but you would think if you truely believed that you might take the time to defend. Of course not all are as interested in politics as some of us but I am personally suspicious of those who are only interested during presidential campaigns !!!! |

As for Obama supporters on this forum, the majority stop posting when they are held to the fire to show reliable proof to back up what they say. There is no conversation from the majority of them with points and counterpoints to discuss important issues. They just spout out qoutes from some liberal handbook and post links to liberal blogger sites saying how unfairly they are treated and how ungodly capitalism and accountability are to the poor and downtrodden and the government must take care of everyone. I have come to believe they are afraid to read or think outside their closed minded little worlds.

![]() I just do not understand. Bucco made a good point about the people who come out during the campaign and then go into hiding. Deep down inside I don't consider myself a Republican or Democrat. I just like to be considered a down to earth, commonsense conservative. I like to read and understand what is really happening. I would like to think that alot of people feel that they made a mistake on their vote on the last election day and they are too proud to admit it, but I have heard too many times that their vote was an anti-Bush vote. Last I heard, Bush didn't run. |

I didn't realize I sounded so harsh. I just get upset that someone may have a different view point or a take on something as serious as our lives, our children's lives and our world; and when you ask them to explain something, you don't get an answer.
Who knows, I might learn something if they'd explain or offer something relevant to read. Oh, well. As my Mom used to say, "The truth will stand when the world's on fire." |

I don't really think that these people really "think." If the answer isn't on their list of talking points, they just move on.

Obama says we are on the way back so it must be true. He is the President of the United States.

I am a 22 year military veteran. We military folks are drilled and drilled that we must follow our Commander in Chief blindly or the whole concept of military order falls apart. Should we stop this practice? If the military respects and follows the President blindly, are the military services all wrong? Does the military that go to war take on the guilt of the wrong doing of the President? Do the solders take on the responsibility for the money spent out of our kids future. I don't know whether to throw away my military teachings to follow Glen Beck and gang or just continue to believe in my elected President. If Glen and Klan are correct, then I feel I should change affiliation and follow them blindly. But if the President is correct, I must stay the course I am on. I think that at least one side of this debate is lying, just which side is and how to I decide. |

But that said, If I can be convinced that the President is in fact a trader to the United States, I will Join the Glen Beck Mob that wants to overthrow the current government. Before I do that, I need something from someone more reliable and honest than Rush or Sarah. But give me a man or women I can truly trust and I am with you all the way. Otherwise, all you have is he said, she said etc. With that as evidents, I will stay with the man the public majority put in office and not go with a small disgruntled mob. |

"Sorry bu-co, Your Wrong. The president of the United States is the top of the chain of command when it comes to giving orders. Orders for the Military are just that, they are not a request, they are a direct order. "
I agree with you....MILITARY orders are just that. MILITARY orders. I,nor you are in the military any longer |

Thanks for the reminder. I hesitated before commenting because he is so off the wall it is ridiculous. I am waiting for him to someday, somehow, give credibility to what he says by linking to some site or attributing something but doubt he will. I am just interested in what he could possibly read for information. |
