I just finished listening to the speech and I gotta say I was impressed with his approach. I say what he is suggesting will work. Maybe not the best fix for the wealthy, but for those of us that live on a moderate budget, he is on the right track. I am going to wait for Boehner's response.

Where is the money for this approach going to be coming from?

Where's the money coming from???? If you make more than $1,000,000 annually, then you are going to lose your TEMPORARY tax break that is scheduled to expire...Along with your bedfellows, (greedy corporations), that have been scamming this country far too long...then moving their ill gotten gains overseas so they don't have to pay any taxes at all..DISGUSTING

China, printing machines it sure will not be coming from payroll deductions since we are losing more jobs every day because of all the burdens this administration is anchoring on small business. The sooner we get Mr. Zero out, the faster the recovery. NOBAMA 2012.

You're losing jobs because the uber rich and their corp lackeys are making hand over fist profits by enjoying the fruits of slave labor overseas...No min wage, no benefits, no invironmental concerns at all...Buy them their yauchts and hope they trickle down on you...

Business is still puzzled by Obamacare. They feel it a threat because they don't know what it is going to cost. Once Obama is voted out and Obumacare is repealed by a new republican Congress, jobs will miraculously start to ballon. You will see. VOTE NOBAMA 2012.

Also true.

vg...so you say the corporations are holding the economy hostage because they are "uncertain" about the pending medical law...Give me a Break...that is more hogwash and you know it..They are holding this country hostage because the can...And the goal is simple...Give them more . They are parasites on this economy, partially because of the supreme court's stupid ruling regarding their campaign "rights", and their ability, now even more, to buy career politicians)..Of course they hedge their bets, by contributing to both sides..They know the Republicans/tea party radicals are much more friendly to their corp theft though.....Please

" one nation under....corporation, with liberty and justice to those that can afford it"

just look at the people Obama surrounds himself with. Immelt GE' CEO reports directly to Obama heading up the "jobs committee".

Since in the position Immelt has approved moving the medical systems operation to China....now where are the new jobs in that move Jeff?

In 2010 GE did not pay one dollar in income tax.

Another example that what goes on in Washington and the espoused intents are just that.....words of intent....WORDS.....the deeds as in the GE example speak much louder....and on Obama's part the lack of any deeds being accomplished speak louder than the words.

But they all smile and pose for pictures as they wave their titles and keep talking of their intents.....as if it meant something.

Disgusting examples of lack of leadership and setting an example.

btk

"U.S. can't 'cut our way out' of budget crisis"...! Huh? Whenever our family has experienced a budget crisis, cutting was our only way out! Come on now, let's deal with reality Mr. Obama. How dumb does he think we Middle Class citizens are?

Let me guess.....I bet you have a "Don't blame me, I voted for the American" bumper sticker on your care and a "I helped fire Pelosi" sign in your window.

No, but do you know where I can get one of the bumper stickers? I usually don't put stickers on my car, but I think it is time to make an exception!

Actually, I have no bumper stickers because my vehicle is rather new. But I'm in the market for one of those magnetic stickers that don't scratch your paint when you remove it. You can also take it off easy so when you park your car and go to a store or restaurant, you do not have to worry about some dirty destructive liberal keying your vehicle.

How about this one "Socialism is trickle-up poverty"

VOTE NOBAMA 2012

Guaranteed you don't have an "I voted for Obama" bumper sticker.

By the way, nobody has answered my question as to how POTUS became a millionaire before he was elected.

How is it that congress did not give up their COLA while those of us on Social Security have received NOTHING though we are the ones with fixed incomes and must buy food, clothing, etc. BHO didn't cut back on his or his wife's clothes, food, or VACATIONS. She screams for healthy food while he eats burgers and fries.

DO AS I SAY, NOT WHAT I DO.
