You have a screwy definition of "embezzlement," Steve.

How so? Looks dead on to me if you take the time and see who benefited from where the trillions went. TARP never went to TARP and the stimuli monies paid off voting blocks including growing government while the American taxpayer watched his life continue to grow worse.

Concerning democrats gaining power in 2007, look at any chart of unemployment, spending, gasoline prices, food prices, see how the private sector crashed knowing the history of left wing socialists after they gain power.

There are very, very few far left Democrats in any station of power today.

Please review who and how many unaccountable "Czars" Obama granted absolute powers to. Maybe far left democrats is not the most accurate description. How about marxist or fascist? Ignoring the will of the people.

Obama telling people who are hurting they need to get off their asses and fight for him, making up shit like democrats always do about republicans wanting to kill old people or starve children, will not improve their situation and will only lead to more violence. A lot of people actually believe this rhetoric coming from your side.

Yes, Obama is in the pocket of Wall Street. But less so than most of the Republicans are. I'd love to see Bernanke, Geithner, and Summers out on their asses, but do you really think a Romney or Perry administration wouldn't have guys like that in their administration, if not, moreso? Hint: Bush appointed Paulson and Bernanke.

Less than most? He's printing and passing out money four times faster than Bush did is he not? Doesn't it get old using the excuse: "but everyone else is doing it"? You thought Halliburton or prescription drugs were the worst things Bush ever did, I seriously wouldn't know where to start with Obama and his cronyism other than to just go ahead and look at the bottom line of "four times spending money faster than Bush."

Next time you're out with your friends, listening to people wanting to raise taxes to the levels under Clinton, ask them if returning to Clinton spending levels and a balanced budget thanks to a Republican house taking away Clinton's blank check included in the deal.

Please enlighten me what the problems in Greece are as you see them. I see the same problems here, out of control government spending, public sector employees and senior citizens being promised a future the state cannot afford just as in California or at GM.
