WEll: you Republicans and Tea Partyers got your wish, getting America and President Obama to look bad at any cost. What you fail to understand is that President Obama had nothing to do with what happened with the balance budget that the Political kids couldn't in order. It's so Dam easy to tax the richest people a little more to help out, who kissing whos BUTT her. Rich people and corporation pay very little, so in your words, keep on screwing the middle class and the poor. It's a Dam shame Republicans are wiling to sink America and make their own Country to protect the Rich people and corporations in America.
I wonder who is going to bail out the US economy?
"Did you hear Anderson Cooper is now on at 8pm ?"
My submission for beat 360 challenge "Too bad we can't sell puts on the President's approval rating or we would be millionaires"

"OMG, it's almost 8pm."
"I know, and I can't find CNN on this thing!"

Any ideas on how we can keep congress from coming back from break and screwing this country up anymore?
I told you we could help steal all that money and not get caught!

"It'll pick up. Right after pigs fly out of my butt."
Are you kidding me? I can't believe every single stock price has dropped. This is not gonna be good. Now what do we do?
At this point,the only thing we can do,is play Angry Birds.
