Exclusive: Geithner Says Brown Wrong About Stimulus

Geithner’s rich friends got richer off the stimulus.

Geithner, like the rest of that inept administration is simply trying to cover his backside. This tax cheat has no credibility whatsoever.

Project much, Come On?
Yeah, some people know all too much about regretting electing Obama (the numbers are huge), so it helps if you pin it on the other guy, eh? :-)

“I enjoyed how many people are already regretting electing Brown.”
Not half as many as those who regret voting for Obama!
And you will learn to LISTEN in November.

I guess Brown forgot that the package was put in under President Bush (who only helps rich people anyway). President Obama had to come in a fight for the people. Less than 1% of Americans are wealthy, no matter what party, race gender or religion you are. Non of you posting against President Obama are rich, so all you are doing is hurting yourselves. Less than 3% of Americans make over 250,000,000k per year. So go ahead and keep supporting the GOP and wonder why you keep have a hard time getting by. We don’t know how the Obama administration will turn out yet, only time will tell. We do know how the last administration turn out and all the numbers and facts say it was the worst administration ever, with direct casue and effect policies and unnessary wars that killed our economy. It takes time to see the results of political action from either party, but a bunch of dumb $#%^ like you won’t know that.

I see guys like Greenspan, Geitner and others on the networks giving their analysis but these guys are the ones that didn’t finish reading Adam Smith’s economic theory. Sad that a guy born centuries before can lay out a simple theory and these modern geniuses are not even smart enough to read the full theory that they dictate their economic policies on. Interview me, I know more than Greenspan, apparently. John Boehner is the funniest, he was spouting off about more deregulation after all the Reagan theory of massive deregulation that has put us in a much worse position than ever before despite giving some boom years by borrowing from the future.

Has the stimulus actually added jobs? Can anyone prove it either way? Both sides will spin it in their favor. As far as Bush helping only the rich, we are in the state we are in personally, because we bought into the “I have to have it now” mentality. Bob bought a 50″ LCD, I need to get one bigger, and I don’t care how much it cost. I lost my job in September, and am on unemployment, and we are still able to money into savings. Why you ask, because we pay cash and don’t buy things that we don’t need. Maybe if more people did that, we wouldn’t be in as bad of shape as we are. Remember that, last year, Biden and Obama said that the recession was over, so this isn’t the past administrations fault anymore.

Even if the stimulus did create jobs, it is taking us in the wrong direction. God warned against debt, interest, insurance and seeking riches and honors, things our culture embraces..
The holy books say, “Be not conformed to this world.” Only a garden paradise lifestyle can end the problems created by the employment lifestyle: pollution to air, land, water and food, disease, energy crisis, climate change fears, wars, immigration, inequality, poverty and social welfare programs. True freedom and independence with no sorrow added only come using God’s wisdom, not man’s.

It just does not pay to be an honest decent person in America. You have to be John Edwards or just like the Timmy the Tax cheat a sleazy lying CROOK. America has sunk to a NEW low with this administration. CROOKS, KICKBACKS and the total destruction of middle America.

Perhaps officials should look closer at their numbers…here in Las Vegas, which seems to be the town of choice for administration to keep the rest of the country from…we have the highest rate of foreclosure, the highest rate of suicides, and close to the highest rate of unemployment in the country…it is worse after this last full year than it was even at the beginning of 2009…the numbers here are being covered up and the big stimulous??? we are trying to figure out how to fire 2500 more teachers and close half the college due to lack of funds, but the sidewalk corners got new grates and wheelchair ramps this last week with a large sign “OUR STIMULOUS FUNDS WORKING FOR US” tell our children who will be unable to take higher math classes just how much help they got!

Here is Massachusetts, 70% of the so-called stimulus jobs just turned out to be government workers that the Patrick administration diverted stimulus money into subsidizing State & Local governments to make up for lower tax revenue.

As Peter Schiff and Ron Paul say, the stimulus has created some jobs at the expense of more productive jobs because of misallocated resources and at the expense of future jobs because of interest payments on the national debt. We live in Keynesian fantasyland that will make the future much harder for our country.

ChicagoBob-I agree with your anger. My only hope is that if Al Qaeda does hit us as our, justifying their insane funding, intelligence agencies are telling us is the case, that Bin Laden chooses the likes of Goldman Sachs and Monsanto execs for their retribution.

Lousy interview
Allows weasel Geithner to get away with not answering question. Let Geithner repeat his opt-repeated unresponsive comments with no follow-up.

High-ranking bureaucrats should avoid becoming entangled in the political fray… Better he should have kept his mouth shut.

Has anyone done the math?
Going with a debateable figure of 2.4 trillion dollars the Bush and Obama administrations have sank into the various bailouts, rescues, stimulus, ect,divided by the population of the US, what do you get? I come up with $80,000 per every man, woman, and child in America.
Is it just me, or is what we are seeing an engineered collapse of the economy, looting of the treasury, and creation of debt slavery? What genius came up with the concept of fractional reserve anyway?
It has always fascinated me that in America’s version of the free market, the most basic concepts are violated by propping up companies that SHOULD fail because of their poor judgment or even criminal conduct of their executives. Yet the working class is left to fend for themselves while our governmental leaders continue to steal from the poor to give to the rich.

“a month where we had positive job growth.”
Right. 20,000 jobs lost and the Obama adminstration calls it growth. Any more of this growth and we’re doomed as a country.
What else can one expect from a tax cheat who was a failure at the NY Fed?

Dear ChicagoBob: This massive, massive deficit was begun by BUSH. He came into office and there was a SURPLUS waiting for him, thanks to Clinton. He immediately sent out checks to make himself popular, then started a war (but let’s not count that… right?) which tanked us financially. For NO good reason. Said it then, say it now.
And Obama walked into office with the financial world crashing into the worst recession since the Great Depression – he HAD to spend to keep us from another depression. Wake up. Get your facts straight. I’m so sick of these’ ‘holier than thou’ Republican (and so-called ‘Independents’) types who are willing to see people without health care and without means to keep their families fed.

Another Obama appointee…What else can be said?…

And we are supposed to believe a tax cheater? After the dust settled maybe it is time to investigate the IRS Secretary.

Scott Brown, the male Sarah Palin. Thanks Massachusetts!

Geithner: “January of 2009, three-quarters of a million Americans losing their jobs”
Actually, it was 598,000. Thats only an exaggeration of 177,000 jobs.

C’mon Jake, you let him off way too easy!! Like most CEO’s the day before filing bankruptcy, Geithner told us that we would have a triple-A rating AND that he didnt have the political power to limit social programs. What planet does this work on? Not ours.
Geithner is a administration puppet and a loser and has to go. Lets get real leadership that has the guts to make the real decisions.

Those wanting to bash Obama are lost and just mouthing off. Although I feel like he is acting week as far as dealing with the GOP. And the so called Tea Party republicans. It takes a couple of years for anything any president does or starts to take any effect or begine to work as planned and Obama is no different. We are still dealing with the fall out of the Bush Cheney admin. If you could call it that. The GOP has no intrest in helping anyone other then them selfs

And we are supposed to believe a tax cheater?
========================
But you believe tax cheater Sarah Palin don’t you?

A bigger question is why Browns opinion even gets the press it does.

The economy was doomed during the Bush administration. Both Pubs and Dems allowed it to happen. But the “party of no” is NOT helping anything now. In fact, they do not want things to get better. God forbid our country gets better – then they might not get their guys elected. It’s easier to point fingers and place blame than come up with solutions to difficult problems. As long as we keep the we’re always right you’re always wong BS, our nation will suffer.

Geithner is a liar. We’ve already seen the statistics. They claim they created or “Saved” 2 million jobs. But the recent studies show clearly that America has lost 4 million jobs. So Geithner, The President or anyone else to say that jobs were created is a lie. IT IS AN OUT AND OUT LIE!!! It’s really quite insulting if you think about it. Americans have woken up and we’re watching and listening. We know the truth and for these guys to blatanly lie to our faces, make payoffs behind closed doors and openly give senators BILLIONS OF DOLLARS for their votes is unbelievably arrogant. We, as Americans have already shown our disgust with these guys during these last elections. You’d think they get it. But they don’t

How is it the Pubs know that everything in Obama’s bills are wrong and yet they admit to never reading them? In the SOTU response, they admitted they never read the health care bill. Yet, they know it was “terrible for the people”. How can one know that something is bad or good without reading it? Or is it more likely they are going to say ANYTHING the President tries is wrong for politival reasons? Now they’re going against ideas even THEY wanted a year ago. Funny how they coward when the President asked them that at their own conference last week. (Of course, Fox cut away as soon as they realized what was happening. Obviously it didn’t fit with their agenda. But I bet they played the entire Palin speech didn’t they?)

What an absolutely sleezy guy! Even the democrats have to admit it…

Of course the stimulus bill saved jobs and create some. To think otherwise is to reveals one stupidity or partisanship.

Would you believe anything an admitted tax evader says?

My father always told me, “Figures don’t lie but liars know how to figure!”

So an increasing unemployment rate means more jobs have been created?

Can’t help but wonder if that is why ABC is their Mouth Piece
========================
And Fox is “fair and balanced” right? It’s not a 24/7 right wing propaganda machine is it? Hahahaha. You would have to be truly ignorant and easily manipulated to belive that.

“How is it the Pubs know that everything in Obama’s bills are wrong and yet they admit to never reading them?”
If Barry can’t admit that a tax is really a tax, yes. But I’ll forward your concerns to John Conyers.

As had the entire Obama admin. given the mess they were handed.
—
So why’d Barry keep digging when he jumped in the hole?

I have heard nothing from the darky that makes much sense. He is so busy posing and preening, he cannot even put words together that make sense. As for his “state of the union” address, he said absolutely nothing that he hadn’t said before. Frankly, his almost fanatical use of teleprompters tells me this man is an imposter, an actor and a fraud! Where is the real Barack Obama? Kept in hiding? Or fed to the Lions of Tsavo?

Scott Brown was wrong. The stimulus did create one job: his. If it wasn’t for Porkulus, and Son of Porkulus, Brown would probably be doing something else.
I also heard Shrum defend Obama saying, “just because you throw out the names of a few million dollar projects that have gone astray, doesn’t mean the stimulus failed.”
Talk about a failure of comprehension. There are thousands of shady/fraudulent pograms; just because no one has the time or patience to list them, doesn’t make the bill suddenly “effective”. What BS.

What don’t you understand about a DUD!!! Just like his pathetic boss!!! Come on 2012!

I find it odd when people respond to a post with comments that have no bearing on the post to which they are responding.
Here is an example:
Someone said: ‘Democrats took control of Congress in 2007. That includes Obama. Which Bush budget did they cut and make smaller?
Anyone?’
=================
The responder said: ‘So who was the last REPUBLICAN President to reduce the deficit or decrease the size of gov’t? (HINT: W didn’t, Bush1 didn’t, Reagan didn’t, Ford didn’t, Nixon didn’t)……Anyone?’
MY QUESTION: Why didn’t the responder answer the other person’s question concerning President Bush’s budgets and the Democratic-controlled Congress starting in 2007?

It must hurt the hand of the scum that runs Goldman Sacks as he has to keep his hand under Geithners’ coat so he can manipulate everything out of the guys mouth. I would love to see Geithner’s phone records from his office, I bet he calls Goldman Sacks four or five times a day.

BO is a one shot wonder, next will come a lady , then a Latino and when all the tests are completed and all the minorities are given their chance then it will be old white males in failing health once again

Ok, enough already. You can now take “the last stimulus bill ‘didn’t create one new job.’” off the table. The stimulus bill has given me the opportunity to hire “1″ new person and I’m interviewing for a 2nd. This 1st one is so good that he will help me to grow my company to keep him and pay him what he is truly qualified for. He needed a job, I needed help and the stimulus program has given me the good fortune to survive as a small business. You may say it’s just one job but I spread the word and there are more of us that this will help to keep the doors open. I’m your poster gal stilettos on the ground who’s fighting to be one of you all getting the breaks!

You may say it’s just one job but I spread the word and there are more of us that this will help to keep the doors open. I’m your poster gal stilettos on the ground who’s fighting to be one of you all getting the breaks!
CONGRATS, DigitalDiva, sincerely. Any ray of sunshine is welcome. I just wish there were a lot more success stories like yours.
The problem is a lot of stimulous money has been wasted or is still sitting in a bank account when it could be helping others like you and your small business.
Hang in there. Things have got to get better or all of us will be in a lot more trouble than we are now.

malcat – You said “Things have got to get better…”
What in the WORLD makes you think ANYTHING will get better, at least over the next 268 days?
We’re all caught in the whirlpool that forms whenever you flush the toilet… and the only place to go is DOWN THE DRAIN!! And Obama is leading the way!!

Why is it when someone complains about the MORONS in the majority, they automatically assume the complainers are members of the OTHER party.
Guess what, geniuses… a lot of us INDEPENDENTS are FED UP WITH BOTH PARTIES.
You’re BOTH going down in just 268 more days!!

The majority of stimulus funds did save jobs, public service jobs and pot hole filling jobs. It was a short term program and had no longterm planning involved. The Administraion is at the mercy of the just bailed out banksters.
Proof you ask? New lending plan for small businesses is for $30 billion, we have already given Banking industry $4 trillion in loans and mortgage pool purchases. Face it America, in the revolutionary war we fought the soldiers of King George, now we fight the mortgage brokers of the banksters.
Our nation is crumbling and the Obama Administration is just going along for the ride.

Malcat – CONGRATS, DigitalDiva, sincerely. Any ray of sunshine is welcome. I just wish there were a lot more success stories like yours.
Thanks. There are lots more stories but mainstream media doesn’t want the American public to know about them. Everyone, go buy something from a small business.

Are there more or fewer jobs available in Mass. now than before. Give us the score on total jobs available not the shift in jobs from private to public sector jobs. Private sector jobs pay the taxes; public sector jobs use up the money. Ok yes public employees pay taxes on their income, but it does not match what they cost to keep them employed.

Saving is good, but what to save? Saving by not going into debt is good, but saving cash in the bank may backfire on us that do save that way. If the dollar continues to devalue, our savings in cash are stolen by inflation. So what kind of durable goods that might prove useful in a hyper-inflated economy are we to save and how long will it last when others that don’t have what you have want to take it from you?

Brown was not talking about saving jobs for the financial industry Greedy Guts, he was talking about REAl JOBS for REAL people. This administration can twist words better than any I have seen in my life of 75 years. Remember Geithner’s boss saying, critize only my policies not me? He should go back and read his speeches maybe he can find them on C-Span right next to the health care debate. When they are shy only 1 vote not it’s lets really work together, This whole crew are so hyprocitical it is appaling.

Government can only create government jobs. It can foster the development of private enterprise by makeing laws that are favorable to buisiness growth and development. The liberal policies that are coming from the Capital and White House will only set us back further. YOu can’t tax and spend your way to prosperity.

I almost wish McCain and Palin won so these tea party/angry old curmudgeons could lavish themselves in their “freedom” of joblessness, unending, unfunded, unnecessary wars and bankrupt healthcare system. The funny part is most of the people screaming the loudest are people that would benefit more with what Obama is looking to do. The “rich greedy” bankers and fortune 500 CEO’s should be the ones protesting the current administration. Nobody got them richer and most of America poorer than “trickle down” Ronnie Reagan and ‘W’. But they’re “your good ol’ boys”. So if they screw you and trample on the constitutionit’s for freedom & liberty. You people are laughable.

Another question:
Does Barry’s use of drones in Pahhhkeestan amount to a war crime? If so, should we impeach him or should we wait till he’s out of office a pursue him criminally?

I agree with Scott Brown’s opinion.
Nowadays, I’ve focused on watching of CNN, special program, where the stimulus money, $78,700,000,000.- have been used and how many people get the job with the money? Mostly the 600,000 jobs by Gov. are temporary, which will be gone when the project of Gov. will be ended.

Geithner is a mouthpiece only, repeating the party line, he doesn’t seem to have any real ideas and is extremely uncomfortable being in a leadership position on ABC.
Democrats say “Its all Bush’s fault, we are doing great, re-elect us”
Republicans say “Obama is a socialist, elect us before he messes everything up”
Both parties are insider only parties… time to break the stranglehold of insiders and give these guys competition.

Frooking hilliarous…Turbo Timmy saying Brown is wrong about the stimulus when the US has done but lose jobs and rack up accounts of the Obama’s administration flat out lying about jobs since Obama’s stimulus scam.

the fanatical finger pointing is another sign that the wheels are coming off. Obama, Geithner, et al have been in office for a year and the fox news viewers and tea party constituency (as well as pubs leadership)are waving the finger of blame that dems are responsible for all this countries woes. The house of cards that is our economy has been crumbling since wall street figured out they could sell futures & speculatory notes like junk bonds, dot com bubble start ups, over-valued real estate and get real money in return. Geithner, Bernancke, Greenspan are the guys dems and pubs put in office to keep our overly mortgaged economic machine from completely dying. Get rid of those guys, let the big american banks/ insurance companies fail and what’s left? The Chinese taking all the dollars they own and buying american companies, buildings, infrastructure. The chinese won’t sell off all their dollars because the devaluation would mean they would lose money. So they would buy everything in this country that would be foreclosed on. then china would literally own us. freedom at last!!

Show us yer jobs Timmy.

Who can have confidence on Geithner’s best guess?

threeriverscrossing wrote: “you can blame the GOP for the policies that cause the Great Depression of the 21st century due to the economic policies from 2001 to 2009″
Then we can credit the Reagan and Bush I economic policies for the Clinton-era boom, correct?

Brown’s claim that the stimulus didn’t create one job is ludicrous. There can be legitimate debate about how to count the number of jobs saved or created, and about the wisdom of the details and the size of the stimulus, but his claim is pure partisan fantasy. It doesn’t encourage me that he seems to be starting off as a Senator by making these kinds of claims.

Just like the loan modification, just rhetoric. The banks have no respect or concern for anyone but themselves. We have been on the loan mod for 6 months and still no answer from BofA. All that has happened is a trashed credit score now and the bank will reap the benefit of the 100k down patment and other “fees”.

Remember back in January of 09. If the stimulus wasn’t passed Obama said the unemployment rate would go past 8% and the end of the world would happen. Well we went well past 8%. Only 9% of the stimulus was for infrastructure which would have been used to build roads and bridges. But the vast majority was used by states to preserve their own budgets. Muni unions made out but not construciton unions. Shovel ready projects included long range high spped rail that won’t be built in years. So the stimulus was a sham to get money for Democrat pet projects and unions. Brown was exagerating but so was Timmy. The Prez and the Dems lied to the the people. They really don’t have a clue on how to get the economy going. Only private industry creates jobs that last.

History and solid economic theory is proof that a trickle-down method is too slow and highly ineffective in stimulating a weak economy. Without additional stimulus (even with additional U.S. debt), we will see many, many people suffer for a very, very long time. Because of eight years of Bush & Cheney (including one unnecessary war, tax cuts for the wealthy, etc.), the United States has been severely weakened. This is a very sad time in our history; it will take years to “fix” the damage caused by the radical conservatives.

Hey, timmy, will you bet our tax return on that?
No NET jobs have been created by the stimulus.
When unemployment was 6% in 2001, Nancy Pelosi demanded of Bush WHERE ARE THE JOBS!
Well, Timmy, other than no-show government jobs to increase union paying federal workers, there are no NET JOBS!

Brown sounds like Palin. ANother republican so caught in their looks they forgot to exercise their brain. I live in mass, and I know of jobs that resulted from stimulus spending. Brown seemed good with all the talk of the healthcare bill. Everyone hated that bill. But now, buyers remorse. Never really realized he was so stupid.

hey folks ,the GDP grew last quarter – the first time in two years. Fact. It’s working. REad forbes Magazine, read Business week magazine ,read Wall Street Journail and read The Economst magazine. All agree. The stimulus did help.

jschmidt posted “Don’t forget, most Democrats supported going into Iraq.” Sorry, but this isn’t true at all. 98% of Republicans voted going into Iraq; only 40% of Democrats voted for going into Iraq. The numbers are out there; all you have to do is look them up.

“Don’t forget Clinton signed the repeal of Glas Steagel.” —-because the republicans made it quite clear that was exactly what they were going to, and the legislation had some other htings Clinton wanted to pass. it was teh last piece of legislation Clinton signed after bush was elected. Republicans said ‘we will do this, with or without you once bush gets in” so clinton’s hands were tied. There were other things on that bill. Were he to veto the bill, why bother? Bush would just sign it the following week when he came in. IT was written by a republican ,it was pushed by the republican congress and when the republican president bush was elected it was a done deal. It was a republican victory and Bush had then 8 years to re-instate it but he never did, because it was his intention, it was in line with hte republican theory of no regulations, no government, and it was exactly what they wanted. “Let the bad banks fail” said Bush. So niave. NEver occured to him the ‘bad banks” would be ALL the banks.

I think the Bots are mentally off their rockers….I didn’t support a land war in Iraq, but they certainly deserved to be bombed into oblivian. Several tons of yellow cake were from Iraq despite the repeated nonsense of the bots saying there were no wmd. Do you hear me bots, several tons of yellow cake? Not that it matters, Bush is gone and despite all he did wrong—–he was a far far better president than the communist we have in office now.

It worked. The fake zip codes did the best. The money should have gone direct to the american taxpayers and not for political buy offs and favors.

Ok Republicans. What’s the answer? Were are your suggestions and ideas? You complain all the time about this apparent “socialistic” gov’t that you say Obama is trying to create and when there are no jobs what do you do? You cry to the gov’t – “where’s my job. I need a job. Make me a job!” Well you do not want a socialistic gov’t. So, go get your own damn job. Be creative and create your own job. This isn’t a social gov’t. You’re on your own to reach the American dream so shut up and get your own job. Make it happen for you.

Brown can’t be wrong. After all Brown pays his taxes. So he must know economics and the law.

Spelling correction. The Republican BIG LIE campaign.

And Geithner is right? If the Democrats have proven anything it is how incredibly inept they are about anything, especially the economy. Brown just came to town and they beating him up, no surprise for the democrats know only one way that is to hate anyone who may oppose them.
No surprise here. The reason they hate Palin is she talks straight and makes since. As they say the truth hurts and they have been lying for so long they have lost all civility and reality. We need to get rid of all the Democrats and half the Republicans and replace them with Americans who care about our country than their own rear ends.
So we will hear more and more how Brown is ruining the country by himself and how the poor old dems are trying to stop him. Doesn’t this make anybody sick?
Over 70% of the people think the so called stimulus stinks and had done nothing but protect the big guys with no accountabiliy.

TAKE TWO words out of geithners vocabulary and he would be speechless.AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

Repubs used to be pro small business and railed against “job creation spending”. They supported (as I do) creating an environment that allowed people to create small businesses and help them grow.
Anyone want to know where the jobs are going? Call to pay your phone bill with a credit card… there will be a voice on the other end that barely speaks English taking your credit card number.
That’s one more gift from the “New Corporate Republican Caucus”. They’ve been shipping our jobs overseas and lapping up the Lobbyist Gravy.

california schools south of sacramento are going broke because they have to have two schools for each student because of bilingual education. if you cant learn english at home like every other immugrant did you should pay for it not me. the democrat progressives are turing our state into a third world country.

Why would getiner be worried about what a new freshman senator says? Oh wait, Brown thinks like the majority of Americans and so Timmy is trying to tell all of we are wrong. Sorry, Timmy, we aint buying it.

Geithner has been wrong about most things! THIS CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION NEEDS TO CREATE JOBS, REDUCE SPENDING AND DEBT, PAY ATTENTION TO HOMELAND SECURITY, AMONG OTHER THINGS. WE DON’T WANT THEIR GOVERNMENT-RUN HCR. This administration has no problem governing “against” the will of the people of America. If they cram their HCR down our throats in 2010 – maybe we’ll cram it down theirs in November.

Geither was apointed to heD THE TREASURY DEPT AFTER A STINT ON WALL STREET WORKING FOR THE PEOPLE WHO GOT US IN A MESS. DOESN´T FILE THE PROPER INCOME TAX, AND BLAMES IT ON TURBO TAX SOFTWARE. IT USED TO BE IF YOU HIRED A MAID AND DIDN´T PAY THE PROPER TAX, THEY REMOVED YOU

I am so tired of all the fear-mongers out there. Do you really understand exactly what socialism is? You hang on to those rhetorical words and just get caught up in slinging them around without really understanding what you are saying. Bush left this country is a serious mess.Free spending with no accountability. Now Obama and team are trying to do the best they can to fix the mess left by the party of “no” and their rich bank cronies. I have never seen a President try to reach across the aisle like Obama has. He is serious about trying to make a better life for every American – rich and poor. Unfortunately they have a serious uphill struggle. Let the GOP all sit around with their fingers up their _ _ _ _ and see how much further this countries’ problems spiral out out of control. Come on people let’s work together on this and get the politics out of the way!!! I am just sick of it!

TBESH, Barack Obama was mentored as a youth for 5 years by Frank Marshall Davis–a Communist agitator. Barack Obama studied for years the principles of Saul Alinsky–a neo-Marxist. Barack Obama applied those principles as a community organizer. And now President Barack Obama is attempting to incorporate those principles in his domestic policy. The fact of the matter is President Obama has anti-Capitalist tendancies and believes deeply in the principles of Saul Alinsky.

All the union members who voted for Scott Brown, Blanche Lincoln and Ben Nelson just got their thanks.

Brown is right, Geithner is wrong. Obama gave millions to AIG and GM so they could hire back people they laid off. No new jobs were created. And what does Geithner know. Obama has the worst administration of any president of this country. Gibbs, Gates and Geithner. The three goons of the century. What in the world was he thinking?

massvoter. Don’t go knocking Brown unless you have a good reason. He no doubt is using his education that’s why he is a senator. And what do you do for a living? Brown knows exactly what he is talking about and he can put Obama to shame when it comes to politics. Apparently you voted for Obama and now your crying like the rest of American citizens.

The senate proposed a job agenda on feb 4,2010 that concentrated on creating jobs and helping small businesses thrive. The senate states that they will start passing bills to help in this situation. President Obama statedon feb 6, 2010 he wants to include taking $30 billion from TARP fund to create a new small business lending fund from banks, which would allow owners to refinance the mortgages. He also proposed new tax credits for small businesses that hire new workers The president also proposed tax credits for those employers that raise their employees wages. He also would like to eliminate capitol gain and support the “inovative” small businesses. It is truly up to the senate and the house of representatives to pass this bill. If congress can’t agree on the proposal made by the president then it will not make it into law. These days it seems as congress can’t agree on anything. I believe that the president is doing the right thing. It’s congress that can’t make up their minds.
