Obama's Speech

Hi Adhyz. I'm fine thanks. How about u? Oh yes, absolutely. Sometimes I feel hopeless when I saw our recent president was giving a speech. I did feel himself were hopeless to be a president Obama talked vigorously - he was like speaking what was on his mind at that time with all his optimistic vision. Just like a person who has just gotten an independece status for his country, Soekarno.

iam back from Mosque now... Every president of course have different characteristic.. No one is similar in our country.. I don`t know if it is good or bad for us.. We don`t need a speech if the implementation is not done by the government office.. i think in our time, we need only a humble leader but their instruction is effective for being this country prospery and better.. Note : I can`t send message by mylot feature..so i can`t replied your mylot message..so i use this discussion for asking you..Do you have facebook account or some like that??

Thanks, Crossbones27 Yes, actually I didn't expect so many people would agree with me since I know that every man who has been in his power - then would be a lot of haters out there. Even the choice that he has decided for the best - it wasn't the perfect way. But I don't care about what it's called perfect if better is really bringing the great change. I don't know why they are bashing Obama since I knew Bush was terribly leader - and Romney is on Bush side (I know Bush didn't talk ahead in the convetion due to avoid some issues) . I'm sorry if my comment seem so naif or fool , I find it hard for me to talk what's really on my mind since this topic - the politic- is one thing that I hate the most .

Your grandmother's Social Security is not in danger. The Ryan plan does not change anything for those 55 and older. And the voucher program is voluntary, anyone can choose it or decide to stay with the government's plan. IF something isn't done quick, that's when your grandmother's Social Security will be in danger as the program is failing and will be broke soon. As for inspiring speeches. Hitler was an inspiring speaker too. And look how that turned out for everyone. It isn't about slick speeking skills, it's about putting the country on a path to solvency.

Well, actually I haven't watched Repblican National Convention. But I heard a rumour that , yes - Romney's speech was very depresing , a negative one fully filled by black campaign. But I'm not into seeing his speech , since I know Bush was from RNC, rite? And I really hate his policy and strategy while he was a president , it just created an image how his party isn't an inspiring one. Oh yes - I heard Obama said about voucher on medicare. Medicare turn into voucher care? He seemed hate on that offering . Actually I don't really know what medicare does about - and why voucher was an issue that Romney said it would save Medicare form bankrupt. I'm lost in this case. But , yes.. Obama explained everything well , he could calm down all people from many issues. I also touched by his saying " The change .. is you " and he started telling about the imigrant , the soldiers, all .

And yes - It all felt very inspirational :)

And here is a list of his lies. They seen to outweigh his promises. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/obameter/rulings/promise-broken/

Keeping promises doesn't mean anything. Was Hitler great because he kept his promise to kill the Jews? No. If you make a crap promise, you are not wonderful for keeping the crap promise you made. So I don't give crap that Obama kept his bad economy ruining promises. That's not a plus. When Hoover in 1928, promised to impose protectionism, and hike tariffs on all imported goods. After he was elected to office in 1929, they proposed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff. May 1930 Hoover received a petition, of 1028 US economists across the country, pleading that he veto the Tariff saying there would be huge economic and monetary effects that could ruin the US economy for years. Hoover ignored the economists, and a promise made, a promise kept, signed the Smoot Hawley Tariff and the country was in an economic depression for more than 10 years, exact as the economists had predicted. So with all due respect, you can bag your crappy promises kept. Bad promises that are kept, are still bad promises.

Ten pages of promises kept. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/obameter/rulings/promise-kept/

Last I checked, Obama-Care was passed. Last I checked, Obama Stimulus was passed. Last I checked, Obama gutted Welfare Reform. So regardless of what the Republicans have prevented, a ton of economy ruining legislation has passed. Further, the economy doing better is irrelevant. We should be completely recovered by now. Instead we are still doing poorly. Merely being better than it was in 2008, doesn't mean it's as good as it should be. And the truth is, it isn't. Even Obama's own economic team said we should have recovered by now, but we have not. Why? Because Obama has been screwing with the economy so much, just like Hoover and FDR, which is why were are in a slump, just like Hoover and FDR. Same actions, same results. The economy would recover if the government did absolutely NOTHING. The economy is a naturally caused systems. You don't need anyone from government to tell you to buy stuff. Nor do people need the government to tell them to sell stuff. Well guess what sparky? Those two things right there, are the fundamentals of any economy, and shockingly, they happen on their own. Government blowing tons of money, is causing tons of debt, poor spending practices, and eventually will demand higher and higher taxes. And high taxes ALWAYS causes a slow economy. Do you know what the average monthly income *AFTER TAX* was in Greece even BEFORE the 2008 crash? 700 Euros. That's just under $900 a month. That wasn't the poor people in Greece... that was the average. That was the middle class monthly income... just $900 a month. We're heading towards that right now. As taxes MUST go up to pay the insane debts your precious Obama racked up, our incomes will decline, and we will end up like Greece. So unless your lady bug magic, can magically make the $6 Trillion dollars in Obama created debt go away... you can stop complaining about the Republicans, you've got your own mess to clean up.

The mystery remains to me how his policies are ruining our country when the republicans refuse to pass any of them... Even Mitt Romney says the economy is doing better under Obama when asked about it. "Of course the economy is getting better." http://youtu.be/uwMbZPJOHiA

Yeah you are absolutely right - even when they said they have done as their promises , the result wasn't like we expected before. Isn't a person called politician if she/he isn't selfishly holds the power
