Harold R: I won't even give your post the dignity of a response. Is the sky blue in your little world? You may want to try cutting the Prozac dosage in half. Remember too that alcohol and drugs don't mix.

Harold you just plain outright lie, or you are the most uninformed person in this state. You rip Obama left and right yet like Carie stated no one stopped you? Maybe if they paid you off you would keep quiet? Het cheer up Harold clunkers for cash may come around again and this time maybe they will allow you to trade off your gas guzzling pick-up? Elijah your welcome, if the economy has stuck a dagger in your back, then you are probably the very few. While you are thinking about organizing a burn party, maybe you should have thought about doing this last year. Seems to me the conservatives have done little to curb illegals from entering this country. Also please don't sit here blaming your problems on the illegals. Many illegals working in America pay into the system, and do not try to collect income taxes, for fear they will be discovered. Why don't people like you complain about the jobs lost over-seas especially during the last administration. Corporations such as Wal-mart who made 18 billion in profits a year on slave labor, as more and more merchandise comes from China, and other foreign countries.that have no laws regarding slave labor. This is why they can produce all the merchandise they want to, and flood US markets with some dangerous products. This is also the reason we have had numerous recalls that caused pets to die, and people to get sick. Obama finally hit China with a tire tariff after they began flooding the US market with tires, and before the tariff came into effect, China was being charged very little tax. This put over five thousand US tire workers out of a job! The economy is showing signs of improving, and in the Midwest we didn't struggle nearly as much as states down south, and in the east. Our farmers pretty much made a big difference in the Midwest. The good news Elijah, is that gallon of gas you would use for your burn party is cheaper then it was last year.

In an economy that drives the dagger in and twists it is articles like this that make me want to organize a big burning party and invite all the illegal aliens to join in a majestic act of unity and burn all the welfare checks and free tuition vouchers. This article totally makes me so happy. Thank you for the bright ray of sunshine you have placed in my melancholic demeanor.

GWB was impeached? I remember when Nixon was impeached, but some how I missed Bush being impeached. Hmmm.

Carie L; Harold is one of those who cannot stand listening to anything positive. It is all doom and gloom and that is because that is what he predicted. In his eyes, if it is bad or wrong, it means he was right. If it is good or positive, it means he was wrong and he has to attack either the source or the author. Remember, this is the same guy who just one year ago predicted a McCain landslide and a Coleman victory. I would not doubt that in his little world McCain and Coleman really did win.

Harold - there isn't much point in trying to get you to calm down and thnk rationally. You are intent on consistently bashing Obama, blaming Obama, berating Obama. Commenting that no one is allowed to speak about President Obama negatively is laughable - you do it all the time, and the Obamabots have not come to hush you up. Reasoning with you seems to be a lot like banging my head against a brick wall - the wall is unmoveable and inflexible, and I just wind up with a headache.

joe r: Those like Harold and the rest, that hope and pray for our country to fail are real patriots arent they? I am sure articles like this, stick in their craw about as much as the Nobel Prize did. It just proves them wrong once again. But remember! These are the same people who predicted a McCain landslide and a Coleman victory. The only thing consistant about them is they are consistantly wrong.
