Obama: If We Lose in 2012, Government Will Tell People ‘You’re on Your Own’

“If you get sick, you’re on your own. If you can’t afford college, you’re on your own. If you don’t like that some corporation is polluting your air or the air that your child breathes, then you’re on your own,” he said. “That’s not the America I believe in. It’s not the America you believe in.”...

“I reject an argument that says we’ve got to roll back protections that ban hidden fees by credit card companies, or rules that keep our kids from being exposed to mercury, or laws that prevent the health insurance industry from exploiting people who are sick,” Obama said.

rules that keep our kids from being exposed to mercury

Then ban your ****ing lightbulb.  

I like this comment from the ABC News blog:

Quote
What a stupid thing to say. Look, Barak, we can do just fine on our own. Being left alone is what we want. Why has it taken you so long to figure that out? Do you really think that hard working independent Americans need advice from a guy that has never had a real job in his entire life?

So, get this straight. We don’t want you meddling in our lives. We are free people and we intend to stay that way. We took steps to insure our freedom in the 2010 elections and we are going to finish the job in 2012. Where did you get the idea that we want anything from you except your timely exit?

Maybe you bozos haven’t got the idea yet so let me make it clear. You and the rest of the government establishment are public servants. Somewhere along the line you got the idea that you were public masters. You are wrong. You are public servants and as such, this is what’s going to happen.

You are and your gang of freeloaders are going to act like servants and keep your mouths shut and do what you’re told. If you don’t then you are going to be replaced. We rule ourselves, you don’t rule anybody. Enjoy freeloading at the White House while you can because in one short year you are going to be out of a job.

Thanks Mommy!

You’ve proven yourself incapable of running this country, and you can no longer blame Bush for it.

You’ve spent us into oblivion, took on more debt (and wasted) more money than we can ever pay back and you still want to spend more. What exactly have you done this past three years except piss away money and go on vacation? Where’s that free healthcare no one wants?

Thanks but no thanks. We’ll take our chances “on our own”


Just a sample.

Hmmm... that sounds a lot like the message of fear that the libs claim is a tactic of republicans.

Also, Mr. Obama, if you lose in 2012 then it will be because the people have voted to do things their way not yours.

I don't know who the audience of the ABC blog is, but I'm reading the rest of the comments.  This speech has seriously backfired.  It's all YES YES, LET ME BE ON MY OWN!!  :yahoo:

The DUmmies, as usual, fell to squabbling, hair-pulling, and eye-gouging in an incoherent manner.  Just reporting the facts.  :whistling:

Isn't "You're On Your Own" the basic message of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States?

Isn't that what we call "Freedom," or "Liberty," or "Independence"?

I remember hearing once about a bunch of angry white guys that fought a war about 200 years ago because they wanted the government to leave them alone.

Yea, you SCOAMF, ban the hidden fees a few deadbeats had to pay and make the fees open so everyone pays more. Spread the wealth, right?  Every single law the left passes to "help" people , hurts the middle class and poor.

So what is it that Glorious Comrade Leader is implying here, that Americans can't make a go of it on nothing but their own gumption without being propped up by gubbamint agencies to provide for them their every need and thought?

Imagine that, an entire people striking out on their own and creating their own destiny...







Ya, THE ONE is probably right. There's just no way the American people could ever survive without massive and constant gubbamint hand holding at every turn.

I hate to break it to you DUmmies but you are ALREADY on your own!


This year has been a living hell. Out of desperation I went to Social Services. I hated to do it but it was a emergency and I figured "why not? I served my country, paid taxes, and never asked for any thing before". What a f***ing joke. All the staff are idiots with degrees in psychology but throw a word at them like staple ( as in food ) they looked at me like I grew a second head and made up the word. They had no idea what I was talking about. And on it went. They sit in their offices with wall mounted computer monitors bigger then any TV I ever owned and tell me there is nothing they can do unless I am addicted to something. After playing round robin with these clowns they sent me to CHRISTAIN OUTREACH! That is right DUmmies. The only people who could and would help were those fundies you keep bitching and moaning about.

Your government answer to all of life's ills is a wasteful fraud. But a religious charity will actually get things done with out making you feel like cattle. And I am working to help them out as they have helped me. They help you get back on your feet and not make you a life long slave to their policies.

BTW, they didn't ask me my religion or make me pray force me into a chruch. They were just willing to help. And all with out the official seal of the state.

This is historic. Lord Barry has actually uttered something that is not only intelligent and compassionate but .. its just a wonderful thing to hear. Even coming from him! This is music to any conservatives ears.

Was he off teleprompter again?

This has GOT to be used in the debates.

Please ... hand Barry this pipe of friendship and Good Will again ...  :stoner:

You ain't kiddin'!

Just received a campaign flyer in the mail this past week.  Here in Virginia, we are having an election for our state officers.  The Virginia Democratic party sent this one out, with A BOLD HEADLINE:

"THEY WANT TOTAL CONTROL OVER VIRGINIA!"

Below the headline were 4 faces:  Perry, Cuccinelli (our attorney general, and the only Virginian), Limbaugh, and Palin.

On the back, pictures of Bachman, Cheney, and a reminder to "VOTE DEMOCRAT ON NOVEMBER 8TH!"

Pure comedy gold!   :lmao:
