Despite all of his talk about jobs, 0Bama never met with his Jobs Council this year. Too busy out raising money, you see.

Love the finger pointing already. Totally ignore the GOPs deficit reduction plan, simply state that your plan was delivered to Congress and you expect them to vote on it.

Enjoy your vacation to Burma next week, Prez! Play a round for me.

I believe the amount should be raised to half a million a yr, 250,00 a year is not that much in this day. Small business people struggling to succeed should not have to be taxed more. Tax the multi-millionaires and billionaires. There are enough of them to tax. With all their loop-holes they pay less taxes than their share.

Lets see he tanked the economy for 4 year so expect more of the same. Maybe so clueless he will establish more departments of government idiots to tax us??HA HE IS THE NEWS MAKER ALRIGHT

So he says he is going to "deliver action during my second term". What happened in the first term. What he is going to do is what ever the hell he wants because he doesn't have to worry about running again. You all think we had it bad the last 4 years....wait till this next 4 years. All of us who voted for Romney are going to be saying "I told you so", yet we are all going to suffer because you just had to elect the minority again......so sad!

I can't believe four more years of this....

50.4% voted for the Liar in Chief including 141% in Florida ? The election was stolen, period.

BTW, how did the so called "poor liberals" come up with 125 Million campaign dollars more than the so called " uber rich". Can you say, Muslim petro dollars ?

I'll be interested to see how the 2nd term benefits the 98% when the 1st term didn't!

mtnmac ....just wait it gets better...well maybe,"Better",isnt a good word for whats coming....

250,000......News flash people that encompasses the majority of small business owners. Yup, the middle class. Bottom line the Federal Government is paying the Jobless, extending unemployment benefits, food stamps, and even underwriting disability payments from Social Security.
THATS WHAT THIS ELECTION WAS ALL ABOUT PEOPLE VOTED FOR FREE STUFF. Major corporation have already started laying of the day after the elecion due to Obama Care. Fuel pricing are twice what they were when Obama was elected. Anything having to be transported has gone up. You people that are not getting free stuff know what I am talking about. What he is going to deliver is more Debt, Unemployment, Higher Taxes thats a given. Your freedom is being compromised with behind the scene dealings. U.N. gun control is first.

CALIBORN, I COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE. I COULD ADD SOME MORE TO YOUR STATMENT BUT IT OOULD NOT BE PRINTED.

Yep he will deliver action all right.. He will work hard to destroy America. 4 years from now we wont even recognize the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Yet another promise that will go uncompleted, with blame pointed towards the mean and evil GOP. IF, any jobs ARE created, it will be union jobs. The government is not designed to create jobs for the private sector, only to take money from them.

He's already talking a "Business Czar" , another Government paid position !

This idea that, "everyone who voted for Obama wanted free stuff", just isn't true.
There is a difference between believing that a safety net for Americans should exist, and wanting free stuff for everyone. It's true, there are people who abuse the system, and I think we all agree that shouldn't happen. But those people are the minority of aid recipients. When someone looses their job and can temporarily access food stamps and/or cash aid, that may mean the difference between slipping into poverty/homelessness or not. And that is good for everyone. A rising tide raises all ships, and we are in this together.

So glad to see the informed commentators keep up the vitriol. Of course the election was stolen because it didn't go YOUR way, had to be the imaginary Muslims allies conspiracy, they're the ones who made the fake birth certificate right?

Keep up the comedy y'all, it's pure gold.

@Whoaman,
You are sadly mistaken.
Go and do some research on welfare, entitlements, government assistance, etc whatever you want to call it during the Great Depression vs. 2012. Or anytime for that matter. Yes they voted for "their money". Yes they are abusing the system, and it is a majority of the people, not a minority. 47% on some form of Government assistance? That is a complete joke. 47% of roughly 350 million... you do the math. During the Great Depression less than 1% of Americans were on this "assistance". 1% of roughly 100 million back then. Obama phones, welfare, food stamps, any sort of entitlement. If you wanted Obama to be our President, then YOU are at fault. "If God spares the USA, then Sodom and Gomorrah was in vain"

Forget whats going to happen in America with Obamy!What about the super Democrat majority in California! Anyone that owns a home or bussiness or basicly has anything, better hold on to there wallet. God help California! You think things are exspensive now, you ain,t seen nothing yet!

WhoaMan,I agree it is great to have the net for some in Emergencies,but we have multi Generations on Welfare!!!That is FACT. Some people can work,and choose not to...their question is "Why",thats what is wrong,and when people that work run out of money,then what happens?
Also,it angers me that we,the US,send Billions of $$'s every time some other country needs it,but here we are after Sandy and where is our Help for Our People???Why are we having to have fund raisers for help?Where are all these other countries?How many billion do we send to Pakistan?Why again?

I can't believe we are going to have four more years of comments like these.

All this election did was make me realize that my vote doesn't count. They announced he had won before California was counted. I'll never waste my time again. Also, for those that did vote for this guy, I blame you for the doom that is coming. Four more years listening to Obamababble while nothing is done. Look at his record, I can't believe he won

Guess who's back?

Read this regarding your "Fuel pricing are twice what they were when Obama was elected" statement.

You people really have a distorted sense of reality.

Really did not matter who is elected, the country is broke and the powers to be keep spending money we dont have. We will see all forms of taxes increase yes all forms income tax, fuel tax, fire fee, sales tax yes let the comedy roll we who work will all enjoy the laughs.

It does not matter who is president the way our country is operated anymore. Until we follow the constitution strictly as it was intended this country will continue on a downward spiral. Until we stop sending money to other countries and stop spending money that we do not have we will not get better. We need to enforce the laws that we have and take care of America first, when that happens everything else will fall into place...

Feel bad for Obama, because he has inherited one the worst man made economies from his predecessor.
