I dunno, but lets not find out. Lets put tax rates back to where they were 20 years ago, when we (the US) were still capable of (and actually accomplishing) great things.

Agreed CEO and President are not exactly the same but not completely different either. The Executive Office as you have mentioned is surely called Executive Office for a reason.


And what reason is that?


Ok I'm not totally sure but it is a fact that CEO stands for by the way - Chief Executive Officer. And our Commander in Chief is as you have said is in charge of the Executive Office. What may people do not understand is that running a large company with multiple employees is in of itself is like running a micro government as well

Except the purpose of OUR government is to provide for the common defense, and to promote the general welfare. Neither one of those have anything to do with steadily increasing profit, unless of course you are FOR a never ending parade of phony rationalizations for more war.

Or if you are FOR UHC in the states we protect, at the cost of basic care for the people footing the bill.

It equally amazes me that people think that 4 years is enough to completely clean up the mess Bush and his cronies left.


I'd be quite happy if Obama projected better economic conditions even 10 years out. However, the deficit is still running over a half trillion even that far out and the Department of Defense budget never does go down any dramatic degree. How can it though? Afghanistan is only one place we're fighting right now and even there, the days after Biden said in 100% absolute terms in the debate that we were going to to be out by 2014, the State Department was talking about it being longer. ....and on it goes.

The federal budget sure is shown to grow and grow and grow though, right on, every year out to 2022. I've seen the future...and it's Obama's own projections. His own numbers... That future sucks. I'll try door #2.

No it's not. And it amazes me that the Romney supporters keep playing that card. Go back over the list of Presidents and find me a correlation between Presidential private sector business experience and an expanding domestic economy. You can't becuase it doesn't exist. Even the GOP's torch bearer, Reagan, was an actor. Bush was a private sector businessman. Where did that get us? The fact is --- as uncomfortable as it may be --- there is NO evidence of any kind that 'business experience' in the private sector translates to effective government. Totally different model.

I'm an instrument rated, private pilot. I have about 700hrs in single engine aircraft. I've flown from New England to the Carribean through the Bermuda Triangle 4 times, once at night during a full moon. I have proven myself a very competent pilot. So given that, I want you and all your family and friends to join me on a Hawaii vacation. I'm going to fly us all there in a 747. You OK with that?
