		<description>Big Government is the enemy of Christianity. Separation of Church &amp; State allows individuals the freedom from Government prescribed religion.  It DOES NOT imply that the Government should be void of faith.  Our Gov. wants to remove any signs of faith everywhere.  As the government gets bigger, moves into our homes and businesses, they will use this idea to totally destroy faith in America. </description>

		<description>Didn&#039;t Obama just mention &quot;make no mistake, the recovery plan is working!&quot;? There he goes again. Insulting our intelligence.  
 
Mr. President, make no mistake. The recovery plan IS working the way you planned, for your sake only. Those of us living in reality, know &quot;the recovery plan&quot; to be a failure to society and freedom and accountability and, and, and. </description>

		<description>Another &quot;Stimulous&quot; bill?  Sure, why not?  What&#039;s another trillion?  The first one worked so well.  Another 1,100 pages that no one, including the President, will read.  Maybe we can give John Murtha another $20 million for his personal airport.  Maybe this time they will be able to take the smell out of pig manure.  Maybe we can give the banks more money they won&#039;t lend out.  Maybe we can give the geniuses at Fannie Mae bigger bonuses.   
 
The problems are so obvious a blind man could see them.  The government decided that everyone, and I mean everyone, should own a home whether they could afford one or not.  They have been so used to spending money they don&#039;t have that it never occurred to them that individuals couldn&#039;t do the same.  They pushed the banks to suspend rational lending practices, even gave the banks quotas on how many substandard loans they had to make.  And when the inevitable happened, and those substandard loans couldn&#039;t be repaid, foreclosures skyrocketed.  Blame this on the Democrats. 
 
Then you have some geniuses at AIG who decide to &quot;insure&quot; mortgages from default without having the slightest idea of what they were doing and without having the necessary capitol to cover the potential losses.  Blame this on the State regulatory agencies that are supposed to regulate insurance practices. 
 
When the Wall Street brokerage firms decided to bundle up mortgages and sell them as &quot;securities&quot; to all of the hundreds of mutual funds, the defaulted loans made those &quot;securities&quot; very unsecure.  This you can blame on the SEC and the Republicans. 
   
The government gets involved where it shouldn&#039;t (the banking, automobile and health insurance businesses) and fails to get involved where it should (through its financial regulatory agencies). 
 
Mr. Obama through his sheer ignorance of economics and his socialistic bent, has determined to solve our economic problems by spending this country back to prosperity.  Sounds stupid doesn&#039;t it?  That&#039;s because it is stupid. 
You can&#039;t spend your way out of debt any more than you can drink your way to sobriety.   
 
We have veto-proof Democrat majorities in the Congress and Senate who are allowing our socialist president to do whatever the hell he wants.  Damn the cost, full speed ahead.  Why?  Because they are counting on enough people believing that the government will give them everything they want or need.  Open the borders, let in the third world, &#039;promise&#039; them jobs, government cash subsidizes, food stamps, welfare payments, free medical care, free education, subsidized housing, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security pensions  --  all you have to remember is to vote Democrat.  Who&#039;s going to pay?  Those left with jobs, of course.  Don&#039;t we Americans with jobs owe the whole world a living, and a comfortable one at that? </description>

		<description>Wake up America! Re-think your W-4 and ensure that next to NOTHING is being taken out of your check. Decide, as a people, that since the government can no longer spend within their means THEY ARE NOT ENTITLED TO OURS!!! 
Term limits now!! </description>

		<description>In regard to the stimulus investment, my understanding is as follows: 
 
1. The current surging fuel cost is overwhelming the market rally. 
And the pending clean energy bill might serve as a second stimulus package world-wide boosting private investments. 
 
2. People are so worried about losing their job, coverage, denial of treatment, which seems to increase bank deposit latetly.  That means stimulus funding mainly goes toward bank deposit for a rainy day increasing jobless rate. It proves again that a healthy society yields better productivity, prosperity. 
It is time to &#039;Change&#039; the notion of the public health as a fundamental human right and install &#039;a safety system for all&#039; like all of the other industrialized nations, I think. 
  
3. The stimulus funding begins to mobilize just 11%, meanwhile, the auto industry has moved to its restructuring with the massive job-related impact. 
 
4. The pandemic swine flu has been hurting the global economy seriously. 
 
Thank You ! </description>
