But is he confused?? Isn’t the American people the one that is YELLING “We are mad as hell and we not going to take it anymore.”

“I want America to have the best infrastructure in the world,” Obama said. But why has it taken him 2 years to do anything!!! This is the same speech we heard 2 years ago when Obama became president but he NEVER delivered with his congress that had total control!! May be the chant should be NO YOU DIDN’T.

After almost 2 year of Obama being president and the Democratic Socialist lead by Pelosi and Reid we are worst off than we were and NO closer to getting the economy back on track. Once again the failed Obama and his congress want to spend and waste OUR tax dollars and punish the American people. Obama only knows to SPEND OUR money on Wall Street reform, health care reform and the government take over of the student loan programs in America.

Almost worse is that the Democratic Socialist congress and Obama continue to hide and denied that social security is collapsing and needs to be changed. Obama vowed that he would fight efforts to privatize social security. “To those who may still run for office planning to privatize Social Security,” he said, “let me be clear: It will not happen on my watch. Not while I’m president of the United States of America.”
Well we say OK, then you must go. Even seniors know that the plan is to keep social security the way it is for seniors now and those coming up on retirement but change it for future seniors who won’t receive any if no changes are made. This is a tough issue and Obama just doesn’t have what it takes to lead. He is just able to give speeches and spend.

We have a failed congress and president that have NO clue on how to restart the private market then have DESTROYED. They must be removed and replaced to SAVE OUR country.

It is the ECONOMY STUPID.

An Indian walks into a cafe with a shotgun
In one hand pulling a male buffalo with the other.
He says to the waiter:
“Want coffee.”

The waiter says, “Sure, Chief. Coming right up.”

He gets the Indian a tall mug of coffee…..
The Indian drinks the coffee down in one gulp,
Turns and blasts the buffalo with the shotgun,
Causing parts of the animal to splatter everywhere and then just walks out.

The next morning the Indian returns.
He has his shotgun in one hand, pulling
Another male buffalo with the other.
He walks up to the counter and says to
The waiter:

“Want coffee.”

The waiter says, “Whoa, Tonto!
We’re still cleaning up your mess from yesterday.
What was all that about, anyway?”

The Indian smiles and proudly says,

“Training for position in United States Congress:
Come in, drink coffee, shoot the bull,
Leave mess for others to clean up,
Disappear for rest of day.”

VOTE ‘EM ALL OUT!

Why not let each state get their budget in order. At some point the states have to start paying their own bills. START NOW and let the TAXPAYERS GO!

Just go to the Obama web site and you will see this:
The Solution Get the economy back on track:
President Obama signed legislation to jumpstart our economy, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, less than a month after his inauguration. The plan will save or create 3.5 million new jobs, make critical investments in our infrastructure and give 95 percent of working Americans a tax cut.

HOW IS ALL THAT jumpstart WORKING FOR YOU. Now the Obama and Democratic Congress have decided to make the business of business even harder and more expensive… WHY?

WASHINGTON
Tue, Jun 8 2010WASHINGTON June 14 (Reuters) – A Democratic plan to extend benefits for the jobless that would also more than double the tax rate for investment fund managers will likely get its first test on Wednesday in the U.S. Senate.

Majority Leader Harry Reid on Monday moved toward an initial vote on a $126 billion bill to extend unemployment insurance that ran out last month for hundreds of thousands of out-of-work Americans and renew a set of popular business tax breaks.
Under Senate rules, the vote on whether to limit debate on the legislation will likely occur Wednesday. Sixty votes are needed out of the 100-member Senate.

Complaints by fiscally conservative Democrats about the plan’s price tag and opposition by some Democrats to the investment fund manager tax has stalled the proposal.
According to several lobbyists, the majority Democrats remain shy of the 60 votes necessary. They need to attract as least one Republican plus keep all of the 59 votes they generally hold in the chamber.
Over the next 10 years, the Senate proposal would increase direct spending by $126 billion and add $22 billion in funding to prevent a 21 percent payment cut to doctors in the Medicare program, the Congressional Budget Office estimated.
The total package adds about $80 billion to the deficit over that period, according to CBO.
The legislation’s so-called carried interest tax proposal would require fund managers to pay the much higher ordinary income tax rate on a majority of their income from managing investors’ money.
The Senate version would tax 65 percent of fund managers’ income at the higher rate. A tougher House version would tax 75 percent at ordinary income rates.
Currently, they only pay a 15 percent capital gains tax rate on this income, while ordinary income is taxed at a maximum of 35 percent. The top tax rate is set to rise to 39.6 percent in 2011, the year this legislation would take effect.
Republicans have offered a stripped-down alternative that would extend unemployment insurance for 30 days, but excludes the controversial tax-raising provisions. It also excludes a provision extending tax-exempt Build America Bonds, created in the stimulus plan last year.

2010 Long Term Care Guide – Learn which is best for you: public or private long term care insurance

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – Companies that offer employee health insurance expect another steep jump in medical costs next year, and more will ask workers to share a bigger chunk of the expense, according to a new PricewaterhouseCoopers report.

For the first time, most of the American workforce is expected to have health insurance deductibles of $400 or more, the consulting firm said in a report released to The Associated Press.

Deductibles are the annual amount a patient pays out of pocket for care before insurance coverage starts. They are generally separate from co-payments and coinsurance.

Two years ago, only 25 percent of companies participating in the annual survey said they asked employees to pay deductibles of $400 or more. That grew to 43 percent in 2010 and is expected to pass 50 percent next year.

Employees who are asked to pay more through things like higher deductibles help keep cost growth in check because they use less health care.

The health care reform law passed by Congress and then signed by President Obama in March has just started to unfold and will have little impact on costs next year, said Michael Thompson, a principal with PricewaterhouseCoopers.

“In general, it’s a continuation of a fairly high rate of medical inflation,” he said.

PricewaterhouseCoopers found that medical costs are expected to rise 9 percent next year. But this doesn’t mean workers will see their monthly premiums jump by the same amount.

Employers typically try to soften the impact of a cost increase by absorbing some of it, changing insurance plan designs or asking employees to pay higher deductibles or a larger coinsurance percentage.

For instance, a medical cost increase of more than 9 percent was forecast for 2009. But the average annual premium rose only 5 percent for family coverage that year and stayed flat for single coverage, according to a separate study from the Kaiser Family Foundation.

The 9 percent medical cost increase projected in 2011 is actually slightly smaller than the 9.5 percent jump PricewaterhouseCoopers is seeing this year. Thompson said several top-selling drugs will lose patent protection next year and become exposed to lower-cost generic competition. That will help temper the increase.

The PricewaterhouseCoopers report also found a steep drop in the percentage of employers that subsidize retiree health coverage. It said only 22 percent of employers with more than 5,000 workers subsidized retiree coverage after age 65 this year. That’s down from 37 percent in 2009.

“It’s a major cost and one that employers have for years now been moving away from,” Thompson said.

PricewaterhouseCoopers compiled its report by analyzing e-mail survey results from 674 companies in 30 different industries across the country. Most of the companies participating had 1,000 employees or more. The firm also interviewed health plan executives and reviewed analyst reports.

Your U.S. House & Senate have voted themselves $4,700 and $5,300 raises.

1. They voted to not give you a S.S. cost of living raise in 2010 and 2011.

2. Your Medicaid premiums will go up $285.60 for the 2-years and you will not get the 3% COLA: $660/yr.

Your total 2-yr loss and cost is -$1,600 or -$3,200 for husband and wife

3. Over 2-yrs The House & Senate each get $10,000 raises

4. Do you feel SCREWED?

5. WILL your cost of drugs – doctor fees – local taxes – food, etc., increase? You better believe they will!

WILL THEIRS…NO WAY . They have a raise and better benefits. Why care about you? You never did anything about it in the past.
You’re obviously too stupid or don’t care. No offense; just making a point!

6. Do you really think that Nancy, Harry, Chris, Charlie, Barnie, et al, care about you?

SEND THE MESSAGE– You’re FIRED.

IN 2010 YOU WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO GET RID OF THE SITTING CONGRESS AND Up to 1/3 OF THE SENATE,
AND 100% OF THE HOUSE.

MAKE SURE YOU’RE STILL MAD IN NOVEMBER 2010 AND TELL THEIR REPLACEMENTS NOT TO SCREW UP.

It is ok to forward this to your sphere of influence if you are finally tired of the abuse.
Maybe it’s time for the……..

Amendment 28
“Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators or Representatives, and Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States .”

Let’s get this passed around, folks – these people in Washington have brought this upon themselves!!! It’s time for retribution. Let’s take back America .

If you don’t forward this to all your friends you’re just part of the problem of national apathy.

IT’S TIME!!!!

Hold Wall Street Accountable

We’ve seen what can happen when big banks and corporations on Wall Street aren’t forced to play by the rules: millions in lost jobs, billions in taxpayer-funded bailouts and trillions in lost retirement savings.

That’s why AARP is leading the call for urgently needed consumer protection that reforms the financial industry and holds Wall Street accountable for reckless behavior that puts our economy at risk.

But we all know that Congress won’t take on these powerful forces unless we make them.

What is it that AARP can’t get.  Government helped caused this problem and then continued to make it worse.

The AARP is nothing but a special interest group working against seniors with their own money

Democratic socialist Sen Chris Dodd has seen the future and it does not include punishing the people of the United States. All the polls show Dodd has screwed the people of Connecticut for the last time.  The people of the United States will be better off without the big spending, big government & pro socialist Dodd who always supported better deals for the elitist members of Congress over the average American.

Good riddance and please let us see how much money you have taken from the hard working people of this country and all the elitist benefits you will have since you were a member of the royal government.
