Government can create jobs. Both Hitler and FDR created millions of jobs. One, to create a police state and the other to create an entitlement state. Interestingly, the police state pulled itself out of the Depression long before the entitlement state did.

Ya vho mien her!!!

Let's all get behind the Obama miracle and raise our hands in salute to his ........ what?

The Dems have a secret plan to bring about change we can believe in. It's so secret none of them know what it is.

And what exactly can McCain do with a Dem congress?......

He won't be able to get anything more done than you think BO can.

(Oh wait.....that's right. He can keep getting our soldiers killed in this mess of a war. BIG accomplishment.) 

Don't want to pull out prematurely. No satisfaction there.

"And what exactly can McCain do with a Dem congress?......

The real problem is that BO THINKS he can do something, like tax oil company "windfall profits". That is what the man said. He has zero understanding of how the pricing mechanism works in a supply/demand free market capitalist economy. He and the Democrats can cause huge mischief and create devastating effects for the American consumer.

We don't want the same party Congress and WH.  That would just help "The Party".   What we want is in the best interest of the countrt.  Why can't a Dem Congress do what is in the best interest of the country?

Neither Hillary or Obama will pull out troops from Iraq anytime soon should either one of them become the head poohbah.The stuff they say on the campaign trail is nothing more than hogwash for the naive that want to believe campaign promises.

The same goes for universal healthcare.The top dems in the senate just this week stated that it will NOT happen anytime soon.

Campaign promises are no different than grabbing manure in one hand and hope in the other.See which one fills up first.

 

 

It's almost scary to see so many placing their hope in politicians and not themselves. Such things bring about very oppressive governments. Venezuela being a case in point. Other examples are too obvious to even mention.

Hi E Ted,

You've got Maxim speaking German and holding his arm out in a salute again....Oh my.

A question for you - how did the police state get itself out of the depression.  I believe it was Hitler's preparation for war - increasing the armies, building armaments and planes, etc.  President Roosevelt had the US out of the depression in 37 due to New Deal actions - with  some recession lasting till the war - but they were very different situations.

BTW, Hoover was president til 1933.  He did not believe in any government intervention or direct aid to people - only voluntary cooperation between business and government.  Nothing happened to reduce the misery while he was in office.

"President Roosevelt had the US out of the depression in 37 due to New Deal actions"

 

Not really, def. New Deal actions helped relatively few. The cause of the Depression was a compression of the money supply by the Federal Reserve, which caused a normal recession to go much deeper and last much longer than it would have if left alone. Hoover did not cause the economic depression, and Roosevelt did no
