No Compromise On Stimulus and Trade Agreement, Emanuel Says

George Stephanopoulos you can stop licking Obama’s nut sack now.

Here is some advice to those individuals that are disappointed in the outcome of the elections. If you voted for Senator McCain and Governor Palin or if you were a disenfranchised Senator Clinton Supporter. Here are a few things that you can do to maintain in the upcoming four years.
1. 86 The Blogs, all of them, stay off of all of these blogs, specifically the ones that are left leaning and here is why. The Obamabots that have been on these blogs spewing nastiness towards the other candidates have not changed and they will not change, they will continue to come on the blogs and spew their hatred along with defend Obama, they have to defend him, because they have to justify voting for him. Let’s be clear, THEY WILL NOT HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE FOR ANYTHING. You will not get through to them, you will not change their minds, you will just fuel them. Let them argue amongst themselves and rip each other apart. If there is no one responding to them, they have no power.
2. During the Primaries and General Elections, you pretty much knew which network and radio stations were in the tank for Obama, now is your opportunity to let these networks know that you did not appreciate their inability to bring you fair and balanced reporting. Boycott these networks and their advertisers and let them know why you are doing it. Hold them accountable. Remember they will continue to be in the tank and they will continue to skew the news so that they can justify their behavior during the elections, THEY WILL NOT HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE FOR ANYTHING. If they tell the truth they will then have to take responsibility for not fully vetting Obama and they will not do that. Primary example: Chris Matthews on MSNBC already said that it is his responsibility to make sure that Obama’s Presidency is successful, this from someone who is listed on that network as t a Reporter. You have more power than you know.
3. Go out into your communities and dedicate your time and efforts: volunteer and look into your local city council and other city government initiative. Become and activist for those things which are of importance to you and your families. Make a difference. While the Obots are sitting and sucking up Oxygen trying to defend their votes, you can be out here making a difference for your children and their children.
4. There has been much talk about the fairness doctrine, which they more than likely will go after. I am a democrat turned independent and I am not loyal to any particular party, but I think that the left and the right should have the ability have their own stations or shows if they want to . Here is a solution. The Fairness Doctrine does not include Satellite radio, so here is a way to help the economy and help talk radio and put money in your own pockets. If this is passed, go out purchase a satellite radio and invest in the satellite companies, invest in organizations that gives you what you want. Encourage the talk radio host to go satellite and invest in their advertisers and the satellite products, this way you get to keep your talk radio and you also get to invest your money in products that support what you believe in. You have more Power than you know.
5. I know that you may be upset about the person that you felt would be best for the country not winning, but give the new administration a chance, although you may think in your heart that they will not do the right thing, give it an honest chance, because in four years, you get to be heard again. Instead of coming on blogs and arguing with people who will not budge no matter what because they have to defend their choice. Contact your congress Person, and State Senators and let them know what you do and do not like, remember many of the Democrats managed to get into their seats on Obama’s coat tails and because of the frustration of the country with the present administration, but the representatives know that they are more venerable than Obama, because the constituents will not be as loyal to them if they do not do what they promised their states and cities. Stay on them and let your voices be heard, put pressure on your Governors also, because many of them supported the President elect and if he is not governing from the center to accommodate all citizens then you let them know and they will be forced to push back out of concern for their own seats and their own careers. You have more Power than you know.
6. Last but not least, set a goal for four years from now, just think in four years you can earn an undergraduate degree, possibly 2 Masters Degrees, a Certification of some sort, take this next four years to make your life and the lives of your children and your families better. Do not wallow in pity but rise up and take action and become more involved. Stay off of the blogs, read the papers and look at the news shows that will give you fair information and keep abreast. This is your best weapon. Let the gloaters continue to gloat as they lose four years of their lives protecting their vote, you would have gained a great deal during this time no matter how this administration turns out.

I am here to collect on my 1000 dollars Obama promised me every year of my life since I am working making under 250,000 dollars a year.
Pay up. NOW

The stock market has already issued its take on the Obama economic plan. Never before has the stock market seen a slide like the one the week after Obama won the presidency. The smart money is clearly not impressed with the Obama plan to tax businesses and capital gains. CARTER II STARTED 11/4/2008.
Obama won the presidency and the stock market died.

This interview with Rahm Emanuel was worth nothing other than to say nothing has changed in politics. The simplest questions were danced around. My God the election is over and Obama doesn’t have to worry about pleasing everyone until 2012. Why can’t a direct and honest answer be given? I suppose the kind hearted way to look at the continued lack of specific responses is to say that his team don’t know what they are going to do now that they won. I will say that Obama himself on Friday looked like the whole weight of this office hit him. I wonder how he will look with gray hair four years from now.

Where is my $1000.00? I also want my credit cards paid off, my mortgage rate reduced and a new car. I voted for Obama because he promised me that I will no longer need to be accountable or to work for my keep. The democrats were going to give me money from all of those rich guys. Does anyone know when to expect those things to satrt taking place?

He said no such thing you twit.

Is that really a woman using the crude remark like nut sack? How gross! I am embarrassed for that person to have never learned communication skills better than that to make a point. Sad!

Posted by: Mary Menard | Nov 9, 2008 2:51:49 PM
Yeah real classy that one.

I heard that we should be getting our money by March 1st. I’m gonna buy me an iPod and spinners for my car

Tell me what took place before Reagan and Bush took office. I am curious.

I see the twit brigade is out in full force today.You must have read that nonsense on Fox news.
I hope he proves all you people wrong.
Curt,
I am still waiting for an answer to this
Tell me how McCain wouldl have pulled us out of this mess.
Posted by: Jwench | Nov 9, 2008 2:51:12 PM

You can call us twits all day as long as we get our money by March 1st. Obama promised.

jwench,
How would McCain have acted differently? First, he would not plan to raise taxes on businesses or capital gains as we head into a recession. this is truly irresponsible. Second, McCain never proposed an additional 700B to 1T in new social programs at a time when we already have programs we simply cannot pay for. Third, McCain would have allowed domestic production of oil. Russia, Iran, and Venezuela are waiting and watching Obama. If they can prey on his lack of foreign policy experience to threaten worldwide oil supply they can drive the price back over $120/barrel. When Joe Biden spoke of the impending failure in the first six months of an Obama administration this was the first area I thought would be a target. Of course, this is the same scenario that caused Carter to implode. History repeats…

yes it is 1000.00 per person per household. Me and my old lady will be getting busy. I figure with the 8 kids that we have plus having 3 or 4 more in Obamas firt 4 years, we could be raking in 13-14,000 per year. Add that to my unemployment & “side jobs” we’re set!

It seems a lot of people are confusing the stimulus package to be the same as the last time. NO, this go directly into creation of jobs and other things like road repairs which we further create jobs. It wont be same as last time. you may get some check but not what you think

More jobs? Road work? What are you taliking about? Obama never mentioned work. He old said he was going to give away money by taking it from other and giving us some cash. Wait a minute here…

And people should forget drilling. That drilling issue was a gimmick. I will go with Obama and his alternatives. That is the future of the 21st century and it will also eliminate our dependence on foreign oil making us more secure. We have too many enemies just because of oil. They will never tell you, the two gulf wars was as a result of oil, the Georgian debacle was also due to oil. It is time to focus on Americans, rebuild our military and reduce out interference in other countries affairs and still maintain our world power.

vuzous -
I agree as long as the 1000 is coming

LaFonda, hey, quit being cheap. You got the Obama ATM in your house. You don’t need to buy second hand.

What’s your point moron? I am none of the above. Can’t even use your name when attack someone. Coward.

jwentch,
Perhaps the anonymous poster was making a reference to the less than stellar respect Obama has shown toward women. Maybe he was pointing out how an Obama supporter also chose a name that demeans women. Only my take, please feel free to ignore in all self righteous haste.

McCain would have dealt with this mess by being a Mavericky Maverick, doggone it! He’d take the 6 oil lobbyists that made up his economic advisory team and boy, he’d get so mavericky, it’d make your head spin!
And, gee, maybe the stock market plunged the week after the election because all the numbers that week, including the highest unemployment rate in years came out and consumer confidence hit the floor.

The interstate highway system is 50 years-old. The nation’s infrastructure is crumbling. Put people to work in essential work to literally rebuild America and its vital transportation grid. It’s a win-win situation which will pay for itself many times over! You can feel that intelligence, competence and respect for the common good is back in vogue. Hallelujah!

I keep trying to tell these naysayers that but, you might as well talk to the wall. OF course that is all the Democrats fault, right?

jwentch, Do you get paid by the Obama campaign? I don’t care one way or the other but I would like to know who I am debating with.
It seemed odd during the campaign that a concerted effort was made on behalf of Obama to dominate the blogs associated with MSM stories. Surprising, but I guess he had enough cash after going back on his promise to take public financing.
Posted by: Curt | Nov 9, 2008 3:37:47 PM
I am from PA. One of the states that helped Obama win. I wasn’t going to even vote for Obama after the primaries. In fact back in the primaries I said I would never vote for him.
Over time, I found that McCain and then Palin lied most of the time and were more of the same old stuff. Palin was a big mouth know nothing to put it bluntly.
I researched both candidates and saw that Obama was pretty close to Hillary on a lot of things, and I like some of his ideas. Therefore, I cast my vote for Obama as did the rest of my family. All but one were Hillary suppporters in the primaries. The other backed Obama from the beginning and she used to be a Republican.

Posted by: Curt | Nov 9, 2008 3:43:08 PM
Continue with another lie. Obama’s campaign had nothing to do with that. The one woman had donated money to his campaign , just like millions of others and was not part of his campaign. The other one did it on her own.
Maybe that is why your candidate lost, you Republicans don’t know how to tell the truth.

The gandiose Obama presidency begins. The dark clouds will surely be rolled back and honey will most assuredly fill the mouth of every true believer. The wrong will be made right and small children will remain small children forever, to live in ecstatic bliss.
Open scene one: The Chief Of Staff pick
Birds are singing…
Sun beams are bent by the sheer momentiousness of the event
Surely this signals the emergence of a great “post-partisanship” epoch
And the pick is……
ffffffttttttttttt – Rham Emmanuel – what? The partisan hack from the Clinton administration?
I want my money back. This was the worste movie ever. Sheeessh.

Can you imagine the unemployment rate when all the Obama bloggers are let go?

And on the eighth day the one they called “The One” ascended to the top of a cheesy podium, bedecked in what appears to be a blue cardboard sign, to proudly declare: “Unto you this day I give to you, the little people, a man that stabs the table in fits of rage. Join me now in looking reverently at my Chief of Staff – the great hope of post-partisanship…..Uh, by the way, ignore the barking and the feel of teeth gripping your leg.”

Posted by: Curt | Nov 9, 2008 4:24:39 PM
Funny, you call the Democrats crooks. What do you call Bush and Cheyney?

jwench,
Neither Chenney nor Bush has ever proposed taxing 401k contributions, much less letting the government take the money I already have in my account.
Show me where either of them or anyone in the Republican party has proposed such a thing.

Read this quote from the Democrats that would like to take your 401k money from you – please read the entire article at Carolinajournal. Jwench, is this really what you wanted when you voted for Obama?
In a radio interview with Kirby Wilbur in Seattle on Oct. 27, 2008, Ghilarducci explained that her proposal doesn’t eliminate the tax breaks, rather, “I’m just rearranging the tax breaks that are available now for 401(k)s and spreading — spreading the wealth.”

what abount my spinners? Mr. Obama promised

We can stop talking about the election now – he was voted in by 19 yr olds that don’t even know what Vietnam was and racist blacks! Move on and support our Messiah!

jwench,
Don’t like the Carolina Journal for some reason? OK, how about the liberal NBC? You cannot dismiss this with any intellectual honesty. Be thankful that you have a government account but leave my 401k and the 401k’s of other Americans alone.

I am just wondering why when I google it that all the sites are saw were Republican sites.
I don’t get where you people are getting he is going to take away your 401k. From that site you posted :
“The Democrats are looking at two paths,” she said.
“One is to make the 401(k) system, which is commercial and individualized, more fair, but not do anything to expand coverage or guarantee returns.”
The other path is to broaden coverage and guarantee returns. “I think the compromise will be a voluntary guaranteed retirement account.
So that if people don’t have a 401(k), or want a better alternative to a 401(k), they could put their money into a government-guaranteed fund
This woman is one of many proposals being looked at:
Teresa Ghilarducci, an economist at the New School for Social Research in New York, floated a radical alternative to 401(k)s at a hearing held by Miller Oct. 7.
Under her plan, workers would receive a annual $600 tax refund if they set aside 5 percent of their pay into a retirement account run by the Social Security Administration, which would then invest globally in risky assets to seek high returns.
From that pool, workers would be paid a guaranteed 3 percent a year indexed to inflation.
The change would encourage workers not to hang on to jobs longer than planned.
Because their returns would be guaranteed, workers would be able to retire on schedule, she said.
Where in that entire article does it say that is concrete and where does it say that you must contribute to the government sponsored one?

I watched the Emanuel interview. More than five minutes of nothing. He never answered one question. Every response was a repeating of “President OBama has made it clear many times that he ……”. Why do you waste the time with people like him that won’t say anything but parrot the party line? Do these type of politicians think that us everyday Americans are idiots? If they want my vote they need to talk a little straighter!!!

Barack Obama = Jim McGreevey according to his male s*x partner. He is recommending Obama come out of the closet before he is subjected to black mail attempts.

WE don’t need to hear about YOUR sexual fantasies. Next lie?………

Barack Obama in my fantasy..BARF
People like Larry Craig, Jim McGreevey, Barney Frank, Gerry Studs, and Mark Foley never learn. If Obama is like McGreevey or Craig it could be down right embarrasing. These types of people have an ego about them that makes them believe they will never be caught. sooner or later they all are.
I don’t want to see my president doing some dude in a video.

Seems to me you are the only one thinking about it. Are you having a sexual identity crisis?

I have never laughed so hard since the election, thanks for putting Obama’s promises into perspective.
Do you know if there is a line we need to get in? I would like an xbox, spinners and surround sound also.

So who will be wearing the Pants in the whitehouse? Pelosi, Emanuel?
Democrats over eager to give more money away.

It really annoys me that you naysayers can’t at least wait until he gets in office to bash him.
I really hope he pulls us out of this mess. Then I want to hear all you crybabies whine when you actually have money in your pockets.
He’s not going to do it in a year not even two. As screwed up as this country is from the past 8 years it will take a while to get it back on track.

LaFonda: the mortgage rate reduction was McCain’s plan. He wanted to buy up devalued mortgages and have them renegotiated. Not sure where you got the $1,000, credit cards and new car thing. You should get a tax cut, though.

Curt: think again, McCain was opposed to oil drilling. It was ones of his areas of contention with Sarah Palin. Also either candidate’s proposals would have added over $200 billion to the deficit by 2013, not just Obama’s:
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/09/29/fact-check-is-obama-proposing-860-billion-in-new-spending/

So, Republicans complained throughout the campaign that Obama was too inexperienced. Now you are complaining that he has chosen someone experienced as Chief of Staff. Make up your minds! Look at it this way. Suppose you took over as CEO of a giant, struggling company. You have major changes to the business plan in mind. Would you draw on the expertise of some key personnel while focusing on the big picture issues? Those insiders have years of information on company departments, competitors, products, etc. Or would you begin by eliminating every past employee, and start over entirely from scratch, just to illustrate your commitment to change? It would waste six months while all the newbies learn the business. Obama has a rare combination: high self-confidence tempered by a knowledge of his own weaknesses. He made a practical choice, which will enable him to get right to work with the assistance of those who already know how the system functions. As he said himself, “I know what I know, and I know what I don’t know.” That sounds simple, but many at high levels lack such self-awareness. I would include “The Decider” in that statement.

I don’t think they have learned a thing and will repeat it again in 4 years. For some reason they just don’t get it.

Luckily, I am a Federal employee and I am covered under FERS. I haven’t looked at my TSP account, maybe I should.
I feel for people right now who have 401k’s.

democratic,
If Congressional leaders had put the poor and the middle classes first, they would have supported Hilary Clinton’s economic plan, ONE YEAR ago, to use $300 billion to rescue the banking, mortgage and financial crisis. In stead, they were just so happy to support our Greatest Leader who pushed Bush’s “stimulus” to give some of you $600.
You might have been $100,000 richer had HRC got her way.

i see the repubs are still about big business—-want trade agreement with colombia–just what we need more jobs gone out of our country—–they balk at stimulis for people who are having problems heating their homes ,but will give far more again to aig—what the hell is wrong with these people.we cannot get them out soon enough.

Obama has taken the wheel of the American Redneck Mini Van. The children are CEO’s, Union Bosses, Army Generals, immigrants, Catholics, and baptists. .Are we there yet? …………
http://thefiresidepost.com/2008/11/10/obama-drives-the-american-mini-van/

Obama has a HUGE burdon to carry. Remember one thing before we all go crazy thinking about all the things we don’t agree with and yes I want my stimulus check too! Can you go back to the other day and remember the very moment on television when the new President Elect was anounced? Can you remember the feeling of love and relief? I can and I hope, no I pray he can handle all of the pressure he is under to be true to this promise he has made!

Anita Yova – what a statement. i can tell your level of education.
dandle lion – Obama did not promise $1000 per yr from the government.
