elbud, when Obama signed the Spedulous Maximus bill into law on Feb. 17, 2009, he took ownership of the U.S. economy. Get used to that fact.

he drew raucous cheers at a college rally in Wisconsin.
UW-Madison police are reporting about 26,000 people showed up for Obama's rally. Since Milwaukee/Madison is in the 400,000 population range that number is really nothing to write home about. Tea Party events have been attracting far more people than this in equal sized areas.
Also, Obama had a music act open for him there. Heh, the MSM and liberals are deluded enough to actually think students came to listen to Obama instead of going to hear a free concert.

It's great to see Obama struggle so much with his own base - nevermind those of us who saw him for the snake oil saleman that he is.
Obama's actually getting his wish: The community is organizing.

Looks like Obama's appeasement/apology tour didn't work. As a taxpayer, can I ask for a refund on my money spent on that boondoggle?

Let's hope Prez. OBAMA the very best in tackling the US economy
When Obama signed the Spendulous Maximus bill on Feb. 19, 2009, he took ownership of the U.S. economy. The downward spiral that followed is the result of his "tackling the US economy".

Looks like his own party now joins the rest of us - - on double secret probation!
Great anology, Tim. Perhaps he's telling them not to quit even after the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

“It is inexcusable for any Democrat or progressive right now to stand on the sidelines,” the president declared in a Rolling Stone magazine interview.
Heh, now he's thowing his voting base under the bus. Quite the "motivational speaker" when talking off-telepromter. Obama's become a one-man circular firing squad.
Too funny.

True, Tim, but Feingold is campaigning with Obama's wife, Moochele. Not sure if that was a smart move on his part.

Blaming Mr. Bush, Mrs. Palin, Mr. Boehner, Tea Partiers, FOX News, the GOP and now democrats. Heh, the desparation is oozing from this administration.

Biden ... was criticized ... for urging Democrats to “remind our base constituency to stop whining....”
Stop whining? That's the only thing the democrats are any good at doing.

The federal Department of Education is yet another great legacy of the Jimmy Carter years. It's been so outstanding these past 3-plus decades that today we are now in middle of the pack in quality of education in the world.
Heckuvajob, liberals.

True dat, Alphaape. Gotta love how liberal elites who wants to champion for public schooling tend to send their kids to private schools.

(Obama) admitted that his own daughters, Malia and Sasha, could not get the same quality education at a Washington public school that they currently get at their private school.
So, he stopped the DC voucher program and then tells the world the DC schools are no good, and that's why he sends his daughters to private school. Wonder why he doesn't care about the children of the folks who cooks his food and picks up his cigarette butts every day?

Obama's got it wrong again. Education can be accomplished within the hours kids are currently attending. Going longer is not going to help if they continue to skip school, not do their homework, get in trouble to the point of suspension, teachers not able to teach (for various reasons), etc.
Extending the hours or weeks that they are expected to be sitting there learning will just add to more of the same we have now at a higher price tag. The problem is a combination of poor teaching skills, lack of discipline, lack of interest or time from the parents/kids; not the hours.

Cutting spending and reducing the size of government is long overdue.
As a taxpayer, I have no problem with the republicans pledge; it's more then what the democrats can run on. They certainly can't run on their failed policies so they have to resort to mud slinging.

Perhaps Obama can garner voters' sympathy by telling us the economic crisis is not his fault because he "inherited" the current House and Senate.
