There's been a sense of urgency to get the economy moving since Obama took office, but Republican leaders plotted to sabotage it, nay they have sabotaged it at every turn.

When republicans ran for office in 2010, they promised their constituents, jobs, jobs, jobs. What they didn't say was they'd do everything they could to stop them.

Obama may have made a mistake concentrating on health-care instead of jobs his first year in office, the results aren't in yet. But he knew if he lost the house in 2010, as he did, he'd never get the health care bill he wanted.

I share your view of Wall Street, but when I hear someone tossing around words like 'socialism' and 'communism' referring to Obama, I see someone with a copy of Atlas Shrugged stuck up his ass regurgitating the words of a talented lady who had that talent kidnapped by the terror she had felt as a little girl seeing her parents lose everything as the soviets seized and nationalized their pharmaceutical business.

Her paranoia of government colors everything she wrote, and her prose is seductive, but grossly exaggerated. An anti-Christian, anti-religious, atheist convincing devout Christians that altruism doesn't exist and selfishness is virtuous makes vacuous the sermon on the mount.

Capitalism is the only economic system worth considering, but when I hear one of Rands Laissez-faire followers say he thinks the oceans should be privatized, a regulation or two doesn't hurt.
