The Dunhams actually attended a church of sorts not far from the neighborhood where I lived at the time. It was well known in the community for having many communist members and so was called “The Little Red Church”. Frank Marshall Davis (Obama admits that Frank was his mentor in his book) was a card carrying member of the communist party.

Of course, if Obama had dared to run as a Republican, these facts along with the multitude of other disturbing facts about him would have been common knowledge. The MSM would surely have produced vast enough information about him, that even someone of Janice’s limited perception would catch on.

Janice – it’s obvious you haven’t read the background information on the Dunhams. Check out the high school that Ann Dunham attended, the mentor Obama had in Hawaii while growing up, and the clubs Obama joined in High School. You will find the reading fascinating.

Please provide proof that he is cutting VA, Social Security and Medicare – actual policy statements FROM Obama that he plans to propose this. I’ll be waiting candymart.

I think his motives are deeper and more sinister than just having fun playing games with the economy. Everything he has done for years is consistent with the actions of a one man sleeper cell, intent upon helping to destroy western capitalism and democracy. I’m not saying he IS a sleeper cell, just that he is acting remarkably like one. His associations with creeps like Frank Marshall, Bill Ayers, Rev. Wright, and his communist mother, father, and grand parents also support that possibility.

This one would not have been very deep (despite what the media myth and campaign rhetoric was). But thanks to Captain Zero (who today equated the stock market is like a popularity political poll)we will have a deeper and longer recession.

It did not work out well for this country in the 1930′s – we had the Great Depression. The only thing that got us out of it was World War II.

Socialism has not worked well for anyone anywhere, ever.

Bush II (two recessions in two terms)?

Recession #1 – inherited from Clinton and exacerbated by 9/11 – it was also short-lived and not deep.

Find me a credible economist who disputes this.

The Ludwig von Mises Institute is the research and educational center of classical liberalism, libertarian political theory, and the Austrian School of economics. Working in the intellectual tradition of Ludwig von Mises (1881-1973) and Murray N. Rothbard (1926-1995)…

but that many nationals are unable to suffer the demands of following directions and obeying orders from their superiors,

Oh really? Are you saying us “Americans” just don’t like to follow directions or follow orders from bosses? I resent that statement very much. Before I started my own business, I worked for various employers and did follow the dictates of the employer, plus I did more than I was asked. So don’t say we don’t like to follow directions and/or orders, because you are 99.9% wrong.

Who repealed Gramm Leach Bliley? Clinton. Who created those bubbles as a trademark of his administration? Clinton. At least three: the dot com, telecom and Y2K.

The Bush administration was aware of the housing market manipulation and economic threat posed by the GSEs and tried repeatedly to reduce any of the potential damage, possibly averting it altogether.

And the problem with the market now is investors are worried about the regulatory side than the tax side. They know the stimulus check from Odumbo will be $13. They’re more worried about our government following the example of Japan’s in the 1990s.
