This pc of POTUS if you want to call him that, is never in the Oval Office. I am not prejudiced, but all I ever saw of former presidents were Rose Garden announcements. They didn't fly aross the US raising funds for their party. I think it's time to say he's all talk and no action.
The action he takes does not include how Americans feel. He mislead our innocent chilren between the voting age and 30 years of age with hopeles dreams. His dream was fulfilled, but he hasn't listened to anyone outside what would advantage him.
He's not a leader. He's a campaigner to keep the Democrats in the office. Even his own party, some dismiss him and hate when he flies to their hometowns without them to mis-represent them.
I can tell you it's time for a third party. The real people who pay their taxes, and expect to get it back for working. If the POTUS would act like a POTUS, maybe I woul have respect for him. Just to ACT, but he can't even fake that.
Talk is going around to impeach him and marble face 70 year old behond her years, but got fixed up by taxpayers' money to reconstruct her face...to get impeached. They are leachers.
I would love to see the Teaparties take over...ya know, the real taxpayers, and take back our constitution, run the country like we run our own home/house budgets, knock out the pensions to solve what is destroying our future politicians...and put an end to this slavery game.
You got what you fought for. Give it up...and the next thing I would like is a 50& reduction in the many layers of unnecessary gov't/ My god, I ran more than 13 departments, in the Office of Personnel Management, bored, because my boss had his feet on the desk, reading his Wall Street Journal, asking me to fetch coffee for him.
I saw it badk then in the mid-late '70s, and you can't see it now?
Impeach the a-hole, and put the regular American, experts that know what the hell they are doing, instead of feeding this "dependent on the gov't" for vacations and raising money for a crooked deocracy that still wants us to pay a price for slavery over 200 years ago.
Vote for someone that abides by our constitution, slaps fines on companies who's headquarters are here, but ships the labor for pennies in sweatshops overseas...to come back here and we have to pay for sub-superior products.
Obama...what's your point in city hall/town hall meetings...green jobs? Do you realize how much you cost us Americans with your stupid gas/fuel/ body guards...and expect the middle to support you and the the bottom that has ten babies by 8 fathers?
You aren't a leader...you are no different than Rev. Wright, Jesse Jackass and that so called Rev. Al Sharpton. Funny how they pitch the words, but don't pay taxes, which you should change immediately.
I feel sorry for your kids...you know why? You mislead them like you did the USA.
Obama heads to N.C. to talk jobs

WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is pushing his administration's plans to create jobs, a crucial campaign issue for Democrats as they look toward November's midterm elections.
Obama planned remarks Friday at a North Carolina company that has hired new workers and expanded its operations with grants from the economic stimulus program. Obama's team wants to marry much-needed job creation with the politically sour stimulus, hoping that will help Democrats gain favor with voters after a bruising, yearlong battle with Republicans over health care.
Before Obama left for Charlotte, the Labor Department reported that employment improved significantly in March, with businesses adding 162,000 jobs to their payrolls. But the improving economy was only strong enough to accommodate the tens of thousands of workers who flocked into the labor force. Thus, the overall unemployment rate remained unchanged at 9.7 percent.
White House economist Christina Romer said in a statement that while Friday's jobs report showed signs of a gradual economic recovery, the American labor market remains "severely distressed." Romer said Americans should expect the unemployment rate to remain volatile, and warned of bumps in the road ahead.
Republicans have created a steady drumbeat of criticism of Obama's stewardship of the economy and against his health care victory in the hopes voters blame Obama at the ballot box in November.
"If President Obama were serious about job creation, he would be spending less time on the campaign stump trying to sell Americans on a health care bill they don't like and can't afford and more time focusing on putting our nation back to work," Republican National Committee spokeswoman Katie Wright said.
Between now and November, Democrats are looking to illustrate their economic accomplishments. The White House said Obama on Friday would point to the Charlotte company, Celgard LLC, an advanced battery technology manufacturer, as an example of the economic progress made since he took office and again call on Congress to act on job-creating proposals.
Obama has pushed Congress to use $30 billion that had been set aside to bail out Wall Street to start a new program that provides loans to small businesses, which the White House calls the engine for job growth.
Last month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported no change in the overall unemployment rate, which stood at 9.7 percent. It had dropped 0.3 percent, from 10 percent to 9.7 percent, in January. That had been the first drop in seven months but offered little consolation for the 8.4 million jobs that have vanished since the recession began.
On Thursday, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said on NBC that administration officials were "very worried" about recovering the jobs lost in the recession. But he noted that business growth has been improving and he expected the economy to start creating jobs again.
More than 11 million people now are drawing unemployment insurance benefits, and the overall jobless rate of 9.7 percent understates the true level of economic misery because many people who have given up looking for work are no longer in the official count of the unemployed.
A report Thursday said initial claims for unemployment benefits fell slightly last week as the recovering economy moves closer to generating more jobs. The Labor Department said new jobless benefit claims dropped 6,000 to a seasonally adjusted 439,000, nearly matching analysts' estimates. It was the fourth drop in five weeks.

party (aka lyn): do you realize that you're the only one that brings up Rusty, Glen and Michael? Just because these people are Republicans, you apparently feel that EVERY Republican supports them or what they say and do. Maybe you could step off your soapbox for a few minutes and stop ranting on and on about these 3.
And to compare Bush to the Holocaust or slavery is probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
The funniest thing I've ever heard though is your comment to people that they should not have an opinion but should just "MINE YOU OWN BUSINESS". Especially since I didn't see any posts of people telling you what to do, just advising you of who is president right now. So it's just more of your rantings!
I'm pretty confident though that your response to my opinion will just be mindless comments about me as a person.

I have no useless insult for you. I have just FACTS for you!
My heritage is Hispanic, but I am FIRST a PROUD American citizen!!!
By the way, from the Chicago Sun-Times (March 21 2010):
"President Obama was the target of slings and arrows Saturday from some of the nation's most quoted African-American leaders.."
"Critics reject Obama's stance that helping all Americans helps those who are suffering most, particularly as blacks are experiencing 15.8 percent unemployment, nearly twice the 8.8 percent rate for whites."- Chicago Breaking News Center.
So you are refusing to see the REALTY.
Question: What does that MAKE YOU?????
