The USA....it was nice while it lasted. Thanks to all the socialists, democrats and takers that sank the country. Good luck with all that....

This guy is amazingly stuck on himself. I thought this when I first saw one of his speeches before he was POTUS. I'm sure that after he drives the country into the dark ages he won't ever, ever see that he was the cause....it's those stubborn Republicans.

I agree! At some point, the politicians and then the populace will truly run out of money to spend...and then we will begin the re-building of some sort of nation...if we don't turn into 'Thunderdome' first.

The current culture is completely different from the Colonial self-reliant, Christian culture that founded the country. I wish it were so simple as a 10 year learning curve. We have a Leftist media, Leftist President and an-all-too-willing-to-spend Congress, as well as a deceived majority that will only urge more spending into the abyss. We are doomed. We will continue the decline into the bin of history.

The USA is just a blip in the timeline of history...a once great republic of individual freedom and liberty...now fast becoming just another nanny-state like the countries of Europe. Nice while it lasted.

I think this 'scandal' will never reach the level of concern or 'game-changing' value that we hope it would. Potential Obama voters are not concerned with the story. The media will shelve it. The enemy is within the gates...the progressive (socialist/statist) machine has infiltrated the ranks.

My musical group has performed for a number of black events. I am amazed at the racist remarks and presentations that are promoted by these black leaders. I am white and was happy to be invited to perform, but I must say from my experiences that if a white leader would have said some of the same things there would have been outrage from both blacks and whites. There is an obvious 'victim' mantra that permeates much of the rhetoric from Leftist black leaders.

Only in my dreams would ANY debate moderator EVER ask anything as truthful as these questions. It would be hilarious to watch the President try to slither around these questions. The voters would get a glimpse of the evading tactics of this Socialist-in-Chief. .....To bad it will never happen and we are worse off because of it.

...The mask will completely come off in his second term....be forewarned...Elections have big consequences.

The West is in big trouble. We now have a brazenly partisan propaganda machine in the Establishment Media that decides what American citizenry needs to know and what it does not. Our 'educational system' has produced a majority populace that is barely able to cogitate above a bumper-sticker mentality. In addition, there are no moral absolutes that are taught or much less believed by our youth or their parents. The horrors of Socialist/Communist state history isn't revisited by the media and so the people continue on day to day, fed by the Leftist behind the anchor desk...and our Socialist/Spender-in-Chief smiles as he looks at the poll numbers. Prepare for an economic collapse in the next 24 months...or sooner.

Can we still secede from the Union? I think this country would be better off if the Statists and the Capitalists could just split the country in two and vote with our feet. Let's see which ideology works best.
