Have you looked at the proposed route, the challenges, the risks, the benefits, expected revenues, projected employment data and tax shares? I would guess by your comment that you are NOT interested or capable of understanding it anyhow. Instead, you are a typical partisan who in his/her mind, connects anything with the word OIL in it to GOOD AND RIGHT. That is the extent of your calculation.

Have a nice day.

Remember that in the final stretch of the last republican administration, world leaders were gathered and told that the whole world was about to collapse, anarchy was imminent, and the money supply was days from not existing... So to insinuate this is Obama's creation is ignorant and manipulative. Bush threw nearly 1 trillion dollars of our taxpayer money at the banks, AIG, and others still unknown, trying to stop the bleeding. In the 6 months prior to Obama taking office, we lost over 4 million jobs,.,so you cant make it sound like the wound was inflicted because of Obama...although it is easy to argue that he hasn't done all of the right things to control the bleeding. I say he needs to adjust the plan. That might be fair, but do not miscalculate WHO and WHAT caused the wound(s) in the first place... Because if you do, and you ignorantly vote to return to the policies that caused this collapse, then YOU will be one of those who I blame when this happens again. You cant throw all of society tot he curb as you please the uber wealthy, thinking they will "trickle" it down to you someday...its baloney - that has NEVER happened, it will NEVER happen. Employers create a job when an opportunity presents itself to make money by creating the job. Jobs are not created by giving wealthy elites more wealth... Campaign contributions are created by doing that. You quote oil price change?? Oil companies are making RECORD profits and who do you think the bulk of their contributions go to? You quote unemployment, but do you know what the jobs WERE that we have lost? I suggest you look into that before you lay blame. You show the credit rating downgrade and cite our debt, but then you likely also defend Mitt Romney paying less tax than you and I, or GE paying none. Our tax fairness is the laughing stock of the world. Flat tax??? Do you understand at all what that will do to the 99% who are not wealthy? Is the entirety of the republican electorate ultra wealthy? Do they know what will happen to prices of things? Capitalism is good and right, but it is being abused by it's only flaw, the consolidation of wealth and according POWER.

This collapse is a result of greed. Obama has not been able to right the ship, I agree, but could anyone have done so? Are you so sure? Whatever lies ahead, I would hope that we would learn that the administrative policies that crashed the system are not what we need to return to.

There are so many basic writing problems I can't believe this is published anywhere... Fri, 16 Dec 2011 14:00:01 +0000 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CNG.5e8ac5c2a9b4aae9e06b37574187c1ac.2d1&show_article=1#IDComment239180685 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CNG.5e8ac5c2a9b4aae9e06b37574187c1ac.2d1&show_article=1#IDComment239179361 the only thing more poorly written than this article are the mind numbingly dumb comments from right wing robots that follow it. "It's Freedom vs Tyrrany" - this talking point is the height of absurdity Obama re-privatized the banks that Bush bailed out with taxpayer money... but Obama is supposedly the "tyrant". Obama lowered taxes for most of you... but you dont want to know that. You guys are just not looking at reality - youre so blinded by the "football game" mentality, that even if your team is screwing you, you wont know it. Many of you should adopt a new slogan to better reflect who you are: "Party before Country" Fri, 16 Dec 2011 13:58:03 +0000 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CNG.5e8ac5c2a9b4aae9e06b37574187c1ac.2d1&show_article=1#IDComment239179361 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225763262 " And Obama continued the Bush tax cuts" -Yes, he did, proving again that the right wingers who think he raised taxes on the rich is 100% baloney. LIES. "I figured you would go with attacking big oil." I did not attack big oil.. see, you twist facts and LIE. I attacked Republicans always wanting to give them TAXPAYER FUNDED SUBSIDIES. At every turn, you guys just LIE, LIE, LIE. "And if you think capitalism is awful, then propose a better system" -yet another lie. I never said anything of the sort. LIAR. You are simply fabricating, like most righties. Fantasy world. I did not say the majority of conservatives are racist. ANOTHER LIE. WVSickFreak, as you can see now, your response is almost 100% Fabricated LIES. Either you do that intentionally, or you are just somewhat mentally retarted and cannot process the words you read. Probably a mixture of both. Tue, 22 Nov 2011 17:13:21 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225763262 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225756469 Ok, Koos, since you are a little daft. I make a 5% profit margin, and end up with $300,000 net profit. You, have a different business, you make a 40% profit margin, and you end up with $12,000 net profit. It depends on what your gross revenues are, doesnt it... you dope. A business with a higher profit margin does not mean they are netting a higher profit amount. They are not related in that way. Understand now? (probably not) Tue, 22 Nov 2011 16:55:49 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225756469 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225373554 Darth - let me clarify, and then you must also. 95% of taxpayers have seen reduced taxes under Obama. NOW - you explain how Obama has taken from the 52% and given it to the 47%.... ?????? empty garbage rhetoric. He has done nothing of the sort. Give me an example. (you wont, because no example exists, unless you fabricate one) TARP - Troubled Assets.... meaning private companies (Banks, Mortgage, Insurance companies, etc) that BUSH SOCIALIZED. He wont even release the list of companies that he gave our tax money to. Isnt that socialist??? OBAMA HAS REPRIVATIZED THEM. BUT OBAMA IS THE SOCIALIST? YOU DONT MAKE SENSE. Profit Margin is totally unrelated to profit amount. You are trying to be sneaky (common for republicans), raising the word 'Margin" but the issue is that Republicans recieve HUGE contributions from Oil Companies, and then turn around and propose tax cuts for them, even though they are making historic record profits. WHY DO THEY NEED TAX CUTS??? Its called MASSIVE CORRUPTION. I didnt Say I hate profits, again, another republican LIE. LIES abound in your party. Its a way of life for you now, compulsive lying. Fabricating stuff. Obama's efforts to help the country recover from a devastating 8 years of Republican misbehaving has fallen flat because at every turn, Republicans in congress have blocked every idea and proposal they could, because they do not want any success attributed to the democrats, otherwise they (you) will be exposed for what they (you) are. Yes, I do believe in responsible Government, and I believe a responsible government should regulate financial markets with great care, DONT YOU???? LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED WHEN WE DIDNT - ARE YOU AN IDIOT or are you part of the corruption? Regardless of how it appears on this very right wing board, Obama continues to poll even or slightly ahead of ALL of your candidates, even in this low point, .... so I would suggest you hold off on your celebrations a while... Mon, 21 Nov 2011 22:39:36 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225373554 http://tv.breitbart.com/nascar-crowd-boos-michalle-obama/#IDComment225350468 SickFreak, if you want name calling read the hundreds of name calling posts on this thread... 99% of the posts are republicans bashing and name calling.... You are spewing the opposite of reality. Fact: A Republican President and Administration bailed out AIG, The Car companies and the banks to the tune of almost a trillion dollars with taxpayer money. A Democratic President and Administration has actuated the repayment of most of this, and re-privatized the car companies in large part. But you all think Obama is the socialist???????? Fact: Obama has lowered taxes for 95% of americans and small businessess.... but you get told by your right wing talk show hosts that he has raised taxes... so you just believe it - because you want to. Fact: Republicans continue to lobby for tax breaks for Oil giants (most profitable entities in the world), and they continue to condone corporate greed in shipping our jobs overseas for neverending increased profits. So... if your party takes control and lowers taxes for these corporations even further, do you REALLY believe they will start hiring Americans again? Really? Why do that when they can exploit third world poverty stricken nations for cheap slave labor... is this the republican definition of "Capitalism" Anything goes? At any cost? To hell with the whole country... just make profit? And YOU are the patriot??? Fact: The country's devastating economic collapse occured after 6 years of 100% control of government by so called "conservatives" AND IT OCCURED BEFORE OBAMA WAS EVEN ELECTED----OCTOBER 2008!!!! Bush and the same group of republicans running for offices today BANKRUPTED our country with massive, corrupting de-regulation of financial markets, then used taxpayer money to clean up their mess. Now "conservatives" want to DEREGULATE AGAIN!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!! There is no end to the jaw dropping greed and corruption of the right wing. Theres some issues for you. You said liberals don't want to debate the issues, ... its not that, ... its that the issues are way beyond the comprehension level of most of the people posting on the internet, as evidenced by the overwhelmingly disgusting and stupid comments and blatant fabricated lies from almost ALL of the "conservatives" on this board. a "Handful of people"???? hardly... more like the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY. Are you blind?

I suppose Republicans and their precious mega corporations that outsourced our jobs and do their banking in the caymen islands.... they are not greedy, but the democrats who perennially stand up for the poor and the middle class.... they are greedy.
