BO is using every scare tactic that he can muster. He has said that unless the congress does his bidding to spend his billions, then the country may never recover.

So the question is, what has the inexperienced, extremist liberal, first black President done in his entire life that warrants the level of trust that he is asking us to have in his judgment. I guess the libs will trust him because he is one of their own, his skin color or some other useless reason. Others of us see no reason to trust him on anything, and he has shown with his selection of advisers just how poor his judgment actually is.

This con man is pulling out all of the stops to get his hands in your pockets. Do not trust him. Call your senators and congressmen. Tell them to oppose Obama's "stimulus" plan and to oppose any of his other socialistic and liberal hair brained schemes.

So I am curious, has Obama somehow earned your trust in his judgment? If so what specifically has he done to earn that trust?

What do you think? Dangerous? Yes? No?
I just read about this on the Salt Lake City Tribune website last night. Read the comments on that site in response to what their own Republican leaders have been doing, year after year. It makes this look like a walk in the park, and the Republicans from Utah are the ones who are witching about it. Geez...

I find it incredibly odd that he would appoint a Republican as Commerce Secretary, giving the conservatives a bone so to speak, and then quite promptly yank away what is arguably the most important part of his job.

Partisan politics as usual? (Something Obama swore up and down he wouldn't do) or is he just trying to make sure the Census goes right? Or is he trying to make sure the Census goes "left"?

Interested in opinions since this could easily get swept under the rug with all the stimulus talk. I'm wondering if that might not be Obama's plan. Make a little power grab over here while i've directed everyone's attention over there.
