    Weird, I just watched them giving Obama standing ovations during his speech.

    Only fools would have been optimistic in the first place.

    Obama promised at least 4 vetoes in case anyone wanted to tweak his programs in the least. Obama wants to raise taxes, spend more money, and increase the debt. We had 6 years of that and it has put us in an economic pit.

    They'll work together on all the important things like increasing the debt, off shoring jobs and curtailing civil liberties, building the police state/total surveillance grid, continuing regime change wars, funding and arming Jihadis . . .

    Politicians cannot off shore jobs. Companies have to make their won decisions. Unfortunately they do so as a result of regulations and excessive taxes.

    Yeah like I said. Did I mention big corporations have a hand in crafting these "free trade" agreements? Like the TPP that people are fond of claiming doesn't exist even though it's been reported on by all the 6 major conglomerated corporate news agencies.

    Anyone else smell that fascism?
