JanMcn - You just have to remember that these conservatives only hear 1) what FAUX News tells them; and 2) only what of that is repeated over and over again. The repeated distortion was one of the propaganda techniques used Adolf Hitler in his lies to the German people about the Jews in Germany.

HE SAID IT!!! He means what he said. He thinks business is a leach on the economy rather that the life blood of the economy and your obvious "connected at the hip" reaction to anything that might make your leader and saviour look bad or leak out the truth is sad at the very least.


Media Matters is a great place to get your liberal fix just as Fox is for the right.

Do you think that when Romney finally puts out more tax returns and the left rips him a new one by distorting the truth Media Matters will step in, in defense of Romney, doubt it.

Did you read the president's speech in it's entirety, or are you one who doesn't want to be bothered with the truth?

So I don't get this wrong and you leftist can't scream distortion, You are saying that conservatives are followers of Hitler and his methods of thinking?

Boy, bottom of the barrel comments on here today.

By the way, repeating something over and over again to make people think it is the truth has always been a leftist tactic.

Obama. Media Matters and Democrats are all back tracking on Obama's remarks in Roanoke, VA claiming they were taken out of context. It appears the Bainers are getting banged and "they can't handle the truth"

This is a prime example of when the "only thing you ever ran" was your mouth gets you into deep doo-doo

I posted a link to President Obama's speech, word for word. Did you read it?

Yes I did. By the way, what makes you the provider of "truth"?, the internet?

What I am saying is he can add all the other comments he wants but he still said "You didn't make that someone else did" and I say yes I did and yes they did make it.

He believes, as I think you believe, that small business is bad and they need to pay up. If you are a small business person then you know that we already pay up. If you are not, you don't know what you are talking about!

I'm sure they didn't. Just parroting what Rush or Fox Noise had to say on the issue.

I'll try to explain what he said in simple terms. Steve Jobs could not have developed Apple if someone else hadn't already invented the internet. McDonald's would not exist if someone else had not invented the automobile. Microsoft would not exist if someone else had not invented the telephone.
Get it? It's sort of like 'it takes a village'. Somebody has to build the roads to get to businesses. Somebody has to lay the wires to connect the telephones and internet. I don't know how to explain it any simpler.

Sally Joe you are spot on and even if his reference was infrastructure Obama forgot thhat gas taxes pay for them.

See no matter how clever a person thinks he is the true self is always revealed and his statements at that Roanoke would have made the leading marxist ppproud.

janmcn - and just who shoves the customers/clients through the door or forces them to make the phone call to the entreprenuer? who provides the customer/client base to make the business go and grow?

First of all thank you for trying to keep it simple so I can understand it!

Second, your explanation is flawed in a big way. In your view of how it was all figured out for us helpless entrepreneurs, we had to wait until the "government" came up with the internet, roads, electricity, trucks, trains you name it then and only then we started a business to use this great new thing provided us.
The real thing is those things came after small businesses created the NEED for them. They were not put there and then businesses trying to figure out how they could be used. I know you and many in the government think that roads and internet and train etc. came first but putting it "simply" small businesses needing these things because of their success and forced the old mother of invention to go to work.
Further more none, and I mean none of these "government" provided services could not exist without the taxes collected from individuals and businesses.
So to keep it as simple as I can, Government would not exist with out us feeding the machine with money.
Your belief that government somehow deserves MORE money because small businesses know what they are doing, despite governments road blocks, is fatally flawed.
Say it all you want, it does not make it true.

We are the government, not subjects of the government.

The President's speech is pure unadulterated UnAmerican Marxist dogma.

Perhaps you and John Sununu could teach him how to be an American since you seem to have such a corner on it?
