I don't think it would help

In Reply to: Obama's new task force - mt
Hell, 2 days ago, the man left the White House after just 10 days in office, stating he just could not stand to be in the White House anymore (he has already ticked off seven countries. The same nasty things that were written about Bush after 9 months in office by these countries are being written about Obama after 10 days in office. How is he going to handle 4 years? He had better thicken his skin quickly.
Honestly, I think I'd take a good look at his agenda at www.whitehouse.gov. For those of you who voted for him and didn't know his stance on outsourcing, well, shame on you. The President of the United States is the highest office in the country and you need to know your candidate The same things posted at www.whitehouse.gov regarding his agenda are the exact same things he posted on his campaign web site. I have to admit that I did not vote for the guy. I didn't like his lack of experience and the company he keeps/kept.
Know your candidate. I honestly don't know where he stands on a lot of things. I didn't vote for him. I feel he is just too inexperienced to handle the job.
Then, we've got Pelosi who wants to pay for abortions because it will help the economy? Huh? Now, she's saying that every month the economic stimulus package doesn't pass, 500 million Americans will lose their jobs. I did a Google on this. Right now, we have around 1.54 million Americans working. Exactly where did she learn her math? Hoo boy. How do 500 million Americans lose their jobs when only 1.54 million currently hold jobs? Scare tactics. That's all it is. The republicans are currently fighting it because of all the pork (Pelosi got called out on it because of the paid abortion issue.
Hope none of your husbands who own guns hope to keep them. You think Obama wants to do away with the 2nd amendment? You ought to see Biden's stance on it. I personally have a concealed carry license and carry a Glock .40 cal. I'm legal to carry in something like 28 states. I also went to training classes (our trainer was a retired policeman), shoot at the range whenever possible and plan to get into competitive shooting. I have a thorough background check by the FBI (that's why you have to pay a fee) and have been fingerprinted. At my training, we shot 42 times, each time aiming for the "center mass" - which is basically the front of the thorax. I made 41 shots. The 42nd shot went into the right arm - dang!!!!!
Please, be vigilant. Keep an eye on which of your rights might be being infringed upon. We already have New Hampshire stating that if the government infringes on any of the constitutional rights, they are ready to secede from the Union. Texas is not far behind. We are so far from a constituional goverment, it is not funny. Our founding fathers have to be rolling over in their graves.
Remember Marxism?
I guess what I'm trying to say is keep your eyes open. And I really don't think Obama cares about a bunch of MTs worried about losing their jobs of India. What our government needs to do is to bring companies back (why should they have any loyalties to foreign competitors anyway) and keep the American companies who haven't left, here. The reason most of these companies left is because the American government has taxed them to death. Moving overseas has made sense - less or no taxes and cheap labor. The government can save this by offering huge tax breaks and/or tax incentives. Heck, the government is talking about making jobs by building bridges but won't promise they'll use American steel. That's disgusting. I grew up in Youngstown, Ohio and watched the devastation of all the steel mills closing. It was very sad. We are so close to a socialist government, it's scary.
Sorry to be such a downer, folks, but this is reality.
