    Thank you, Mr. Obama. Your brilliant stimulus plan has now outraged our friendly neighbors to the north, and started a trade war. Maybe this is why they said you had no qualifications to be president.

    That's ok. His plan for health care is projected to cause close to 10,000,000 lost jobs. BUT, at least we'll finally have healthcare owned and run by the federal government.

    I hope it gets to the point where senior citizens no longer have to choose between food or prescription medication.

    Agreed. They'll just die waiting to choose.

    Do you just buy any myth that's fed to you? Government programs ensure this choice never has to be made. Between Social Security, Medicare and Food Stamps, there are more than enough coverage for the bare necessities.

    That's not exactly agreeing with me as I don't think they'll just die waiting to choose. But something certainly needs to be done with health care.

    He knows that. It's called Obama worshiping.

    Right . . . you got be me all figured out. Must be all the time we hang out together, sharing ideas, getting to know each other . . . I could see why you are ready to label me.

    I figure I got to put on my Obama worshiping hat . . . when dealing with posters who blindly bash Obama for anything.

    Have you spent any time in any educational institution, ever?

    The quote says "could shut out..." you retype "started a trade war." Is reading a new skill you've just learned. Do you need help getting it down?

    No I woke up in a great mood. Rolled out of my cot, put my stuff away under the cot, went to the soup kitchen and got a tasty meal.

    It was you and your pompous labeling put me in a bad mood . . . one down for you and I'm thinking about 12 more posters to piss off before you call it a day . . .

    You're a rather sad person. I actually feel a lot of sympathy for you. I hope your day gets better.

    Just a question: Which school(s) did you attend and which degree(s) did you earn?

    Liar. There's no way you graduated from high school.

    Actually, I almost didn't graduate HS. Once I finished my Fall semester Senior Year, I knew my GPA didn't matter--my last semester wouldn't get passed on to whichever college I chose. As such, I just stopped doing homework and went waterskiing every morning when it got warm enough. Finally, I was called in by our Principal and told that if I didn't start doing my work, he was sending an update report to my college and I was going to get kicked off the baseball team. After that I shaped up and barely got passing grades that semester.

    Yes, and I'm sure the new plan will run itself, with no additional jobs.

    Perhaps you'd like to quote the source of that 10 million job loss, you know, just so we can see how neutral that source is and how valid their research is...
