Thrax what about releasing top Taliban commanders or cutting our military or GIVING RUSSIA OUR MISSILE SPECS?!?!?!

Does that count as out to ruin the country yet?

guy above me is an idiot

TBY - the only thing remotely correct in your post was: "I'm not good at these politics things."

Thrax - "I think Obama scares the shit out of the business world in general and the cogs won't really begin to turn again till he's out of office."

I really don't understand the republican view that Obama has been this insanely anti-business president. I would argue the exact opposite. I think he has been extremely lenient on pushing for real regulation (aka regulation that actually has some teeth, not just regulation in name only). In addition he signed in and pushed for the business bailout. He has been extremely pro-business and as someone who is more liberal than conservative... it has kinda ticked me off.

i've been saying it all along: obama is the best republican president since reagan

Right, a Republican Prez would endlessly continue unemployment benefits and increase welfare.

Riiiiiiight

A Republican that wanted to get re-elected in this economic climate would have.

Matt; personally I wouldn't categorize Obama as anti-business either. I think it is more complicated then that. I think he is a crony capitalist with a left wing worldview.

He is certainly pro business when it comes to those that have supported his candidacy/policies.

For example; Wall Street; he certainly isn't anti-wall street. He may talk a lot of talk; but it is only rhetoric. In practice; he done everything humanly possible to protect and enrich the wall street firms.

except for the consumer protection agency, lobbying congress for the dodd-frank act and a bunch of other shit

Ive got a bridge to sell you.
