If Obama had guts and leadership, he would halt the porkerbill, and just announce that all taxes including income taxes were eliminated for everyone who pays them for the whole year. No handouts, no nothing else. It would be tons cheaper, get the stock market back in gear, and probably encourage companies to hire people again.

Considering most of the people who are surrounding the President, I'd say there is about a quarter of cup of guts and leadership for the entire group....and that would be a generous measure.

I never implied that Obama was using his oratory gift to promote good, or even advance the cause of America.

We must hope that Obama is only badly misguided and not intentionally evil.

Since he was one in Indonesia, muslims believe he is one of them. They are calling for the destruction of America. He is advancing their cause.
