lol, shes gona be hated by that community for the next few years, and its well deserved too. Also why are soo many people "scared of Obama"?

Because his economic policies (if you can call them that) are horrendously irresponsible.

That aside, this woman is a cow.

Yes, because the Bush/McCain policies of cutting taxes and deregulation have worked so well. 

I love the way you say Bush/McCain, despite fundamental differences appearing in their economic plan.

Tell me, do you believe that the $900 billion in new spending, new protectionist policies (that are in fact, old, long-discredited Democrat policies) and a fundamental shift to permanently pushing an entire class onto welfare is a stronger economic plan?

 

So McCain didn't vote for the tax cuts and deregulation?  He did everytime.  And what is McCain talking about now?  Tax cuts for everybody.  Yet McCain would increase spending too, he's even said so.

As for what is being discredited, we are finally beginning to realize that the policies started under Reagan (trickle down/supply side economics) just don't work over the long run.  They are short term solutions that cause massive deficits.

As for welfare, just because you can regurgitate Republican talking points, doesn't mean they are accurate.  Has the current fiscal policies reduced the number of poor people in this country?  I thought not.
