God bless Obamamerica!

hey, piss poor infrastructure is for shit-hole third world countries!

obama on the road!

I don't get it, are you saying this is a bad thing?

You mean like what the United States is about to become? So when these roads are fixed where do the jobs go? :error:error:error:error

Are you fucking kidding me? What the hell is fixing a god damn highway going to do to stop this depression? Oh please please tell me the answer to this, grabs popcorn.

It's the start of giving people jobs and injecting money into the economy. Don't be a moron.

woot.. 60 jobs!

60 less people on welfare.

THis is all short term fixes. Nothing for the long term. Interviews with people about where they were going to spend the money proved that. Some were going to create 300-500 jobs, but the jobs wouldn't last over a few months. So the people they hire will be back on the Unemployement lines.

Yes because after the roads are fixed we are going to continue to pay people to do nothing? :1orglaugh :error

We are talking about TEMPORARY JOBS here. OH and by the way do you know how much fucking carbon gets pumped into the air from road construction? :error :1orglaugh

Inronically I bet splums grandfather and great uncles probably worked jobs under FDRs New Deal yet he belittles this.

So you rather pay for someone's welfare for 3 years than maybe only pay for 18 months in that 3 year period? Personally I'd rather have the guy out working for his government check.

ya... nothing stimulates the ecomy quite like making a bunch of people late for work cause a bunch of slow ass state employees are taking their time and ultimately going way the fuck overbudget repaving a road.

You mean the new deal where they ended the gold standard? :error
Or maybe you mean the new deal that made America socialist? :error

Dont worry you will still get your food stamps GatorB. Wont buy you much food but you can play poker with em!

America is socialist? Why are you here then? Unlike you I don't get food stamps and welfare. You're like the guy who farts then asks "who farted". Fact is your a POS that should do the world a favor and kill yourself. Or at least cut off your balls so you don't breed your stupidity into future generations.

Temporary jobs don't help people? WTF do I care about carbon emissions?

You are saying more people with jobs in a local community will NOT help at all?

Oddly enough its worked before.

there are people that no matter what obama did would bitch.if he did nothing,then they would be bitching why is he doing nothing ?its really boring we get it you dont like him.

just quit trying to use logic with these idiots.

I just love splum because he put an entire night or so into trying to get me fired when i worked for panchodog.

Dont work there no more do ya?

Not because of you. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

i guess now we'll have to coin the term "Obama Derangement Syndrome"

Dude, I know you know better than to judge his admin based on a bit more than a month. You're better than this. Don't join ranks with splum.

All his actions in just a month are fair enough to take a guess where the next 4 years will go for sure..

Obama will have a lower approval rating than bush when he leaves.. for sure.

Well, that would be one hell of an accomplishment :)

Would be amazing to beat bush or nixon.

Must have been slow at Burger King that night for him.

uhmm... i was making fun of splum

It won't stop it, it will merely delay it.

When the money runs out, you have 2 options...

1. Depression/very long & deep recession
2. Pump more money in to keep the projects and programs going.

The spending has to end at some stage and when it does you also have the added debt to pay off. Obama has done nothing more than mortgage the future so you are all a little more comfortable for a few years.

I really love your posts but I never know what to make of them. Sarcasm/sardonism doesn't translate well over text.

haha... you should meet me in person... i'm even worse. :)

only wait while ...

a tiny bit of advice about your site...

i don't think you quite hit every color on the spectrum with your design... go back... shoot for even more confusing/clashing colors and even more text that makes your eyes bleed and we'll take a look at it for you again

So am I. :upsidedow

Oh God... the haters are as bad as the fan boys.

:2 cents::2 cents:

Though to his credit, no one wants to be the president in power when all hell breaks loose - especially also being the first black president...lord knows there's already some pieces of shit scheming to assassinate him.

fact: Road work in the winter = shitty roads being built

Going deeper into debt to get yourself out of debt is a very short term solution.

This stimulus will fail. I Don't want it to, but it will.

The card house is sadly going to have to crumble and we will have to rebuild from the bottom up. Printing more money is just going to delay the inevitable.

Gotta spend money to.... Gotta borrow money to.... oh yeah... this is what it gets us...

what will they do once its fixed? who will hire them? or will they never fix it?

Isn't that the whole point? Temporary jobs for people till the economy gets back into shape?

Damn that FDR and his socialist agenda. Look what horrible things it did to the country. It went on to become the World's only wealthiest country and only superpower. Damn that socialist for destroying our country.

Wow .... 60 new temporary jobs .... My fuckin' hero! :thumbsup

I guess you've never read about how Hitler put Germany back to work building the autobahns in the 1930s, have you?

Riddle me this - Can you explain to me why a single snow storm causes hundreds of thousands of people on the east coast to loose power for days at a time?

It's because most of the people on the east coast have their power, telephone, cable tv, and Internet sent to them via a cable that dangles from their fucking roof. You've got to be kidding me, right? I haven't lived in a house that had a power line hooked up to the roof since the 1980s. All of this needs to be underground. It's safer, more dependable, and looks a lot better.

So after the roads, we can fix our power infrastructure. Then after that, we can start building stuff. I'm sure Chicago needs a new, larger, and more modern airport. Remember the Bay Bridge when it fell into bay in 1989 after the earthquake? Well, they've been talking about and planning building a new bridge for over a decade. I'm sure there are tens of thousands of bridges that need to be replaced. I live in a town with 70k people in it - How about a public sports center? We can create jobs that will leave the general public with something nice that will encourage us to keep fit.

How about some new parks?

How about some new dams - We can create some new reservoirs that will turn into huge public parks, create energy, and better control the flow of water to drought stricken states. At the same time we'll create lots of new jobs. Sounds like a win / win / win / win situation to me.

Here's a no brainer - how about re-building all of our schools? The high school I went to was fucking majestic. It was huge; We had three huge indoor gyms, showers, a full automotive school; We had a huge culinary arts program with it's own real life restaurant open to the public. Now explain to me why my kid is going to class in a fucking trailer? How about we rebuild our schools from the ground up?

Colleges too.

The choice here is simple. We can pay people welfare, or we can put them to work bettering our infrastructure and our way of life. We can bail out AIG (again) or we can rebuild every highway in the US while employing millions to do it.

That's the big question.
