About as journalistic as Huffington!


Find unbiased media outlets to get the truth from.

Breitbart and Huffington are not unbiased.


And Jermyn, you're not biased?

He cant even put his own people to work !!!!Talk about incompetence.

I was not even thinking about that-- and I definitely didn't imply that. If you read anything more than what I said, then maybe you are reflecting off of the darkness you see inside of you.

If you really think that I think that way, then don't interact with me-- but I can tell you that you're wrong.

I don't support Obama for the color of his skin. I stand as a conservative willing to be objective. Why are you playing the race card? Do you support anyone based on the color of their skin?

I am not a journalist. Real journalists strive to present the facts without bias-- but there aren't any real journalists left.

So how do you think I am biased?

Fact 1- Obama give speech telling America and the Market that he is going to put us another 500 Bill in the red.

Fact 2- Market drops over 300 points.

Fact 3- World markets drop citing this as one of the 3 factors in the drop.

Fact 4- The markets slapped down the POTUS for his wild and wacky ways!

In order to make money, we're going to have to spend money.

It's absolutely useless in the short term to cut and cut without creating ways for income to be generated.

The POTUS' plan will give the American economy a jump start.


Do you think that his plan is not good? What part of his plan is not good?


You citing his speech as one of the reasons is completely different from someone saying that the whole thing is Obama's fault-- which is simply false.


As the Wall St Journal stated, the market's drop was mainly a response to the instability in Europe.

The Head of the ECB resigned. His resignation had nothing to do with the POTUS' speech except that the two events happened within 24 hours of each other.

Had the POTUS not given his speech and the Head of the ECB resigned still, then the markets would have still reacted the way they did.

Got a question for you Jermyn,...

When is the last time that this worked for you?

This kinda flies in the face of old time logic... "Money saved is money earned"

I know that when I started my business in 2008, it took money to get it off the ground.

I know that I am in the process of starting my own business again and it takes money to get things started. Of course you have to save too.


The notion that the American economy is going to be "fixed" by cuts alone is foolhardy.

We need cuts and we need to stimulate growth in the private sector.

Companies and corporations who dodge paying taxes anger me. Still, offering tax incentives to companies and corporations to invest in Americans is ALWAYS a good thing.

Your left wing extreme economics don't work.

Class warfare means punitive taxation for the wealthy. Cuts their funds that can be used for investment.
