The United States Department of Housing & Urban Development, which the Donk SuperCongress bequeathes a runaway budget no matter how wasteful, boondogglerous, and corrupt it gets: Federal funding for a housing counseling program carried out by local…

If a 23 percent success rate is what Abt actually found, though, I’d bet the farm on it. Those guys are good.

I’m starting to get a real bad feeling that there is more to that than a frustrated joke. I am really starting to wonder if Obama is nothing more than a blithering sockpuppet to the “real” power, the ones who have propped him up and Messiahized his campaign, the Van Joneses and Cass Sunsteins of the world.

Have you ever noticed that Obama’s mouth flaps open and shut when George Soros moves his fingers?

Man, are those students ticked off!

Lesson is socialism, I tell them. The look on their faces is priceless.

UN to investigate the United States for “human rights abuses”: lack of affordable public housing. UN was invited to do this by Obama.

Sounds like a shell game to me. If the HUD funding wasn’t there, those brothel-advisors wouldn’t be working for Acorn, so they *are* basically paid for with government funds.

Yesterday during lunch, I brought up healthcare reform with the waitress. “I hope we get it for FREE” she said. I asked her if I could get my meal for free to which she giggled. When she came back with my bill, I asked her if my meal was free. She said the manager never gives customers free meals. So I asked her if she was willing to pay for my meal out of her own pocket. When she said she couldn’t afford to, I said I can’t afford to pay for your free healthcare either. Wish y’all could have seen the look on her face!

That’s Obamacare in a nutshell. Anyone dumb enough to believe it’ll be “free health care” deserves to have nothing left in their pockets when the government is through with them. Unfortunately, we’ll be screwed just as badly.

It’s truly frightening how many people are out there like Peggy Joseph or those women in Detroit waiting in line for a handout from “Obama’s stash”. Certainly they don’t represent a majority of Americans, but they do make up a sizable voting bloc that’s keeping a lot of corrupt politicians in office.

Enough with the crapass entitlements. Get to work. Make your own path, your own way, your own success. Or, get off my bus.

Spending money is the only thing this government can do. We could save money as a nation if we didn’t waste so much on the government.

I know you are a business owner, and so am I.

When my profits and productivity fall, I do not borrow money. When I am threatened, I will not hire. I watch daily as things unfold in the new government that is ours. I will not hire, will not buy, will not invest, will not expand, will not even take a step. I will sit. And, watch. I am in a state of stagnation. My employees sit each week, wondering, waiting… “Is my job gone yet?”.

I’m no nail biter. I’m a fighter. And I will join with the Chamber of Commerce to fight this POS that is threatening not only my business, but the lives of the people I employ.

STOP.

That is where our economic recovery will come from. I think the Blacks, Hispanics, Asians and Whites need to learn that you will only get what you work for.

A simple message. The election of Obama certainly should empower Black Americans to acheive all that they work for. Hispanics, Asians and Whites and all others in between should know that anything they set their minds to is acheivable. Anything. You. Set. Your. Mind. To. Is. Achievable.

Enough with the crapass entitlements. Get to work. Make your own path, your own way, your own success. Or, get off my bus.

And Turkmenbama cut military.

THANKS OBAMA VOTERS! YOU’VE DESTROYED OUR COUNTRY!!!

Spending money is the only thing this government can do. We could save money as a nation if we didn’t waste so much on the government.

Often during the health-care overhaul debate, we hear often hear that having the government in charge will allow bureaucrats and Congress to wring the “waste, fraud, and abuse” out of the American health-care system.

May want to reword the sentence.

This is the absolute truth. Obama is not some supernatural, mystical entity that controls everything. He is the face of these people behind the curtain.

This is just a way of taking our tax dollars and converting them into campaign funds. Commissars award the money to community activists, who then do campaign work for Democrats.

We’re doomed.

Nice job, Ogabe, your priorities are being well settled.

This could get very bad before its over.

Buckle up, kids, this is gunna be one helluva ride!

Sadly if it doesnt, then the America that the founding fathers created is dead and gone forever.
