I DON'T THINK ANYTHING CAN BE DONE OVER NIGHT, I LIKE THE WORDS HE SPEAKS, LETS GIVE HIM SOME TIME TO SEE IF THINGS WORK OUT LIKE WE ALL HOPE THEY SHOULD. HE IS OUR PRESIDENT, WITH MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THE U.S. PRAYING HE SUCCEEDS.

I don't know if I would joke around about that. After the speach tonight with him talking about the Govt. watching over the banks making sure that they don't do anything that the govt. thinks are wrong doings. (alot of which are what they forced the banks to do a few years ago anyways) It kinda scares me. Sounded like the beginning of losing our free markets. Oh and he is not MY Pres. I didn't vote for him. I hate it when people say that. He is the President of the USA, but not mine. How many of the people that are shoveling that crap down our throats would have said that George W. Bush was Their president??? not very many.
PG said:The speech was good and I really felt like we have a President that seems like he is trying to do something about issues in the US... Unlike past presidents that give the same old speech and add to the problems that we already have. I don't think that he will accomplish everything he said tonight but I hope he gives it his best to make sure that we move in that direction. In case you missed it he will be saving allot of jobs, although unconventional, but I am willing to give him a chance to prove it to me than make narrow minded assumptions. Time will tell.... :-\
BIGTEX said:We do not have to give Oback Barama a chance. He has caused more irreversible damage in his first 30 days than any President in history. All the money that the city of Dallas is getting is going to the poor parts of town. How is this going to stimulate the economy if we pave new streets in front of crack houses?

Well, then he better get to saving those jobs. In case you didn't realize , in this stimulus check that he signed , there is more that will be spent in 2011 Thur 2014 than will be spent in the next 18 months(correct me if I'm wrong). I don't know about you but I know a lot of people that won't be able to hold on until 2011. Then throw in the fact that he will probably let the tax incentives run out in 2010 & will start taxing people that $250,000 or more about then, doesn't sound good to me. I mean I want him to succeed , you would be crazy not to. I just think he is going about it wrong, just like giving $900 million to rebuild the Gaza Strip back so the can blow it up again. That money needs to stay here.JMO.

Maybe he is going about it wrong... but a decisions have to be made and I am sure that he did not sit in a room alone and come up with this.... I am sure that there is a better way to go about it, but this is not a decision that can be made without effecting other issues..... To be honest anything that he (or any other president) would have come up with would have had a negative drop off in another area. I respect all the openions given because I don't care if it was McCain in office he would be getting the same criticism.... It is what it is...
