Did you know? - Page 5

Blitzen,

You might be waiting a very long time. Bainmaster and wifey say no more tax returns will be released. Even other republicans are asking for them to release the tax returns, wonder what they are hiding?

If we want to blame anyone we can blame ourselves. WE were the ones voting these creeps and thugs into office for the past 115 years of corruption. It's up to US to fix it now.

Argueing and pointing fingers who is at fault here is total waste, it was US who voted them in and it's up to US to vote them out.

We can do it. 

My son was told they were requiring students to pay first two years now before government loans would be issued. He was told funding was cut and having first two years done proves a student will most likely be responsible and continue onward and finish paying loans. He did it. He attended and paid for his two years, then was told there were no more government loans students with two parents still together, and who are not drug addicted or mentally unstable. After doing what was asked of him, as soon as Obama took office student loan criteria was changed. I know of five students in my sons honor program whose parents got divorced so that their children could get the loans. This is supposed to help the family units? This is supposed to protect the middle class family unit? My son only has two of his eight years of schooling and there are no jobs out there other than part time ones which he is to middle class white American to qualify for. He was an honors student of high IQ and with previous college credits from all AP courses through high school. He is over qualified for many jobs he supposedly qualifies for education wise and not accomplished enough for the next tier. I have seen multiple jobs that was labor type he applied for go to people of race/color and it is not because of anything more than many employers of jobs who use unskilled labor will use only one ethnicity be it Latino, African American, etc so that there is no cultural drama within the workplace. There are no laws saying you have to have at least one or two white employees. Many do not want to talk about that, but it is true here. Go to one fast food place you will have all African American employees while the next business is all Latino. The crews are more productive that way and runs smoother for the manager. The middle class white young American who has not finished schooling is screwed.  Before any comments on what I have said are made. I am not racist, I love people of all types. My family has mixed races within my nieces and nephews. I was born in Africa myself, and have seen true poverty and neglect/brutalization of different peoples and also knew the love of the people there. I have many friends of every race and religion. I am only saying what many get afraid to say, but is true and happening on our country. My husband has people in his company pumping fuel that have two masters degrees and doctorate, They had awesome jobs until the last two years. There are four foreclosures on my middle class street at this moment and twenty in the surrounding side streets on one block. I thank god daily for my husbands continued employment with his company of 15 years. The 74 year old retired fire chief 6 doors down from me in middle class suburbia was murdered by a home intruder last week the same day my gsds warned someone off from my home in broad daylight. The kick in home invasions are across the country during the day when those who are fortunate enough to have jobs are working so that the ones who cannot qualify for money to feed their families and have been laid off and unable to find jobs. The man who was at my home trying the door was approx in his twenties, white, clean cut looking. Thank god I have the dogs/guns or it could have been me instead of the wonderful life they did take all for some small items to steal. They have yet to find the guy and believe it to be the same man that ran away when my dogs barked here to find an easier home. Two doors down from me lives a state trooper that works night shift and his patrol unit is home every day during daytime and this murderer was not deterred from the proximity.

      How much worse will we let this economy get?

Really? You want founding fathers? Slaves, woman can't vote, worker oppression, child labor slaves. Yeah lets go back 200 years. Good grief.

Newbie,

Why? Obama doesn't control the purse strings. WAKE UP.

Who are the "they" who told  your son all this and what did their decision have to do with something Obama did?

He is the one that changed student loan criteria. He is the one that gave away money to his friends and past eployers at Freddie Mac and Fannie mae. So he does not control money? Then why does he make money promises?






      Ask NASA if he controls the money? Ask the space program employees about money and jobs. Ask them how many where told by him in his last campeign speech at Cape Canaveral that their jobs and the space program was safe and that he would not cut funding. He took it away from them. How is that not holding purse strings?

Shital, in the US women are considered equal now; we have the right to vote, to say what we want to do with our own bodies. We dont walk behind our husbands and we are allow to show our legs above the ankles. We don't cover our faces and we don't get circumcised when our husbands can't watch us 24/7.

Newbie,

Bush was the one who canceled the shuttle program back in 2005 and Obama has always supported NASA. Look it up.

Funny my dauther-in-law is in the first year of college and she is getting student loans.
