Well, The ports are as pourous as when GW Bush sat in the oval office.
NAFTA and the promise of renegotiation is on a camp fire in Siberia with a lot of the Progressive idea's that got Obama elected in this age of Change.

The Border to the North is open and the one to the South is WIDE open with the Vacancy Sign blinking wildly. Who knows if the 25 terrorists that the bomber gave up, have already entered the U.S.

Our Airport security is more interested in not hurting the feelings of holiday travelers than searching for possible terrorists. And we owe all this to the lady that runs the Department of Homeland Security.

I googled today and took the stories that came up first.
It's how most Americans get their news today. They do not read newspapers like the Washington Post or New York Times.

They Google
And guess what... America agree's with this progressive DEMOCRAT.

The Players..
Geithner

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner in this up to his eye balls. A Rubinite since the Clinton Administration

SUMMERS

As director of the NEC, meanwhile, Obama installed economic czar Larry Summers, who had served as Rubin's protégé at Treasury. Larry Summers, was paid more than $5.2 million in 2008 alone as a managing director of the hedge fund D.E. Shaw, and pocketed an additional $2.7 million in speaking fees from a smorgasbord of future bailout recipients, including Goldman Sachs and Citigroup.

RUBIN

Despite being perhaps more responsible for last year's crash than any other single living person — his colossally stupid decisions at both the highest levels of government and the management of a private financial superpower make him unique — Rubin was the man Barack Obama chose to build his White House around.

The biggest joke played on the United States of America came in 2008 when then Governor Janet Napolitano was appointed as Homeland Security Secretary.

Janet continues to prove that she is not capable of handling the job or even on the same page as most Americans let alone Democrats.

Democrats have always worked and worked hard. We have been brought up to believe that hard work and friends were the way to make America better..

SO WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED to US?

Where did the money go that was stated to be used for shovel ready jobs?

Why have we as a nation promising billions to others when we do not have a tax base to support the wars we are in, our own health care plan, and our own poor?

Where are those shovel ready jobs?
Has anyone here at DAILY KOS been hired for a SHOVEL READY JOB?

You have to ask yourself..... Who are these fools in GOVERNMENT working for?

And where will we..... Yeah , YOU and ME get the money to continue our life styles and feed our children?

These people are in the pockets of world wide criminals benifiting from the working class of America, and forcing this working class Democrat to his knee's.

It seems that the change we all believed in is not going to happen with this President or this Congress.

Instead of being the lean, mean transparent machine that could bring the United States a national health care program, bring about an ecological sound, earth friendly policy for the United States and a transparent process that would be seen on C-span, we have a scientific scam with cover up in global warming, an escalation of the war in Afghanastan with troops and treasure, an economic meltdown in the U.S. and transparency only when convenient for the administration.

These Bozo's in Congress have no clue as to what is actually going on in the district they represent. Most have proven this at the town halls that they held on health care. I hope that there are good Democrats that are ready to run for these seats that are coming up in 2010

We need some good common sense Democrats that can actually lead!
Replace the Republicans that are left and the spinless Democrats and get some real leadership in Washington.

I would love to see UNEMPLOYED Democrats in all states start campaigning for the seats available in Congress and the Senate.
Why Unemployed????????

Congress opened a door for Banks to stick the American public with the bill until the new laws take effect in July 2010.

If enacted into law as expected, the credit card industry would have nine months to change the way it does business: Lenders would have to post their credit card agreements on the Internet and let customers pay their bills online or by phone without an added fee. They’d also have to give consumers a chance to spare themselves from over-the-limit fees and provide 45 days notice and an explanation before interest rates are increased.
Some of these changes are already on track to take effect in July 2010, under new rules being imposed by the Federal Reserve.

The Banks are doing as much damage to the nation as the last administration and these idiotic elitists we have sitting in Congress.
Banks that were bailed out by AMERICANS are charging customers with credit card debt, new rates, some as high as 32% Car dealers are charging AMERICANS as much as 10% if they have any problems with their credit, while Bernanke and Congress keep interest rates at 1.0%?

After watching The Cash for clunkers program make waves and increase sales for the likes of Hyundai and Ford. I took a step back and looked at pricing available to the American consumer.

Fords August sales rose 17.2% from a year ago. Chrysler sales fell 15%, and GM sales were down 20%.Also aided by the government program were Hyundai, the South Korean carmaker, which said its sales jumped 47% last month to a record-high. Honda said sales rose 10%, while ToyotaÍs rose 6 percent.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/...

The Price of an Auto needs to get a reality check.

Housing has slid 30 to 40 perscent in most cases across the United States, while car pricing has increased?
Does this make sense?

Car manufacturers have not had any increases in labor costs.... especially from ASIA! Why the big jump in price from on a sub compact imported from Korea to the USA? Up from $9990.00 Just 6 to 9 months ago, to an amazing $13990.00 today?

I was proud to see the Presidents plane to land in Phoenix at the airport from my window overlooking south mountain.
I was happy to hear that he like most Americans would get to see one of the wonders of the world with his children and enjoy the 105 degree weather that we call home.

It was a relief to see the DEMOCRATS out man the TEA BAGGERS, on the street in the wests most western state..
Even though the signs thay held read... were similar.

The Democrats who were better than 3 to 1 in attendance held signs that readt .. MEDICARE FOR ALL.........A SHOVEL READY PROJECT

Makes Sense to me.. It's allready available, It could be revamped to solve the crisis we are facing as a public option, and we have it in place.

WHAT A CONCEPT
But what about all those Arizonans who showed up with guns as the motorcade passed.... Damn, that is legal in Arizona.
