Where does he plan to get all this money?

Rebuilding the Military
Universal healthcare
etc
etc
etc

He already explained that... he's ending the idiotic Bush tax cuts for the rich, he's going to work to close tax loopholes, and he's going to go through the budget and kill government programs that don't work (and I'd be willing to bet that there are a lot of those.)

 

[Yaweee]

he said he is going to cut useless crap that's proving to do nothing

Everybody always says that. It's basically meaningless.

 

[Mahadev]

Well you have to think in a debate. :lol

LOL BECAUSE OBAMA IS STUPID AMIRITE?

 

[ToyMachine228]

It's not "universal healthcare" like you are thinking. And you can start by ending the 10 billion dollars a month spending on the War in Iraq.

I'VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU JOHN MCCAIN

 

[echoshifting]

i love the red/blue/united states of america line. great stuff.

My favorite line of the speech so far. Got me a bit choked up I must confess. :X

 

[speculawyer]

This man rocks.

 

[Chiggs]

I've got news for you John McCain!

 

[scorcho]

Well you have to think in a debate. :lol

...

considering Obama's background i'm sure that isn't a problem for him. for some reason i think that Chicago U, home of the late, great Milt Friedman, is pretty strict on who they let teach/lecture in its halls.

your rejoinders would be better if they were grounded in reality.

 

[Tobor]

Well you have to think in a debate. :lol

You are out of what's left of your mind if you think McCain can gain anything from a debate. It's going to be the JFK-Nixon debates all over again.

 

[Hootie]

Oh SNAP.

 

[PantherLotus]

is this...

could it be...

a CENTRIST, LOGICAL, ARGUMENT???


FUCK YES!!

 

[Chiggs]

I like my AK, thank you very much.

 

[dave is ok]

lol @ someone asking where the president gets money after 1 trillion spent on this stupid war

 

[ToyMachine228]

That gun line was perfect.

 

[Gaborn]

Yes Barry, but apparently you also want to make them second class citizens with the title.

 

[Shaheed79]

Where does he plan to get all this money?

Rebuilding the Military
Universal healthcare
etc
etc
etc

Taxing the hell out of the mega-rich and oil companies and reallocating the tens of billions spent on the "war on iraq". .

 

[Illuminati]

he said he is going to cut useless crap that's proving to do nothing

Like NASA? oh wait...

 

[Yaweee]

He does the "Good/Bad can't we all just get along" damn near perfectly. His point about AK's are stupid though, as assault weapons are an insignificant contribution to gun violence.

 

[PantherLotus]

My favorite line of the speech so far. Got me a bit choked up I must confess. :X

he used it at least once before at the biden announcement in illinois

 

[Particle Physicist]

He'll be promising the kitchen sink, next. How'll you pay for all this without extending the debt as bad as Bush, precious?

if the debt goes up, at least it will go towards shit that benefits us.. not warmongering bullshit.

 

[Hootie]

is this...

could it be...

a CENTRIST, LOGICAL, ARGUMENT???


FUCK YES!!

"My friends, logic holds absolutely NO place in American politics."

 

[The Librarian]

Like NASA? oh wait...

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Like NASA? oh wait...

TAKE THAT BACK

 

[Manmademan]

I like my AK, thank you very much.

so...you're a criminal then? because Obama said nothing about keeping AK's out of the hands of the law abiding. :lol

 

[mugwhump]

Now the government is going to control hiring of teachers? WTF

More government more government more government more government!

Idiot idiot idiot idiot idiot idiot idiot idiot

 

[JayDubya]

Like NASA?

Nope, he's funding the shit out of that. Course, so was McCain.

so...you're a criminal then? because Obama said nothing about keeping AK's out of the hands of the law abiding. :lol

I'm confused, can you keep your own guns in jail? Because when you've served your time, you're not a criminal anymore.

 

[typhonsentra]

Unfortunately it has.

 

[Vgamer]

lol @ someone asking where the president gets money after 1 trillion spent on this stupid war

Well it sounds like Obama wants to continue the war just shift it to Afghanistan instead of Iraq based on this speech. So I dont know how much money that will save.

 

[SoulPlaya]

he said he is going to cut useless crap that's proving to do nothing

Like what? Don't tell me he's gonna go the "ear mark" route that McCain is on, there isn't much there. Even without the Iraq War, how is he gonna pay for an intensified Afghan War, universal healthcare, rebuilt military, etc.

And I'm an Obama guy in this election.

 

[TDG]

I'm glad that the libertarians chose this exact moment to educate all of us on their idealistic, unrealistic political views. Geez, could this wait until after the speech?

 

[PantherLotus]

don't worry sugah i'm in tears too

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Like what? Don't tell me he's gonna go the "ear mark" route that McCain is on, there isn't much there. Even without the Iraq War, how is he gonna pay for an intensified Afghan War, universal healthcare, rebuilt military, etc.

go read this whole page buddy

 

[DY_nasty]

Its about me!

The Drug War?

 

[Gaborn]

Taxing the hell out of the mega-rich and oil companies and reallocating the tens of billions spent on the "war on iraq". .

You do realize that every dollar of the Iraq money is deficit spending because 1. the budget is already a deficit, and 2. a very significant portion of the costs are supplemental (non budgetted) funding?, right? So you're saying Obama's going to run a bigger deficit.

Tamanon - Obama supports Marijuana remaining criminal.

 

[Chiggs]

That son of a bitch tricked me!

Spoiler

I own an AR

 

[Illuminati]

Nope, he's funding the shit out of that. Course, so was McCain.

Last I heard he wanted to cut billions from NASA's funding.

 

[Yaweee]

The Drug War?

That's a huge issue. McCain's policy of raiding medical marijuana users and tossing them in prison for the rest of their lives ain't cheap.

 

[scorcho]

I'm glad that the libertarians chose this exact moment to educate all of us on their idealistic, unrealistic political views. Geez, could this wait until after the speech?

hey, it's better to allow them to give their (abstract) verbal lashings to keep us on our toes than actually give them power.

A McCain administration wouldn't be worrying about paying for a universal healthcare system.

 

[The Librarian]

Last I heard he wanted to cut billions from NASA's funding.

Last you heard...

 

[Hootie]

Last I heard he wanted to cut billions from NASA's funding.

(Luckily) he actually changed his position and now wants to help fund NASA even more.

 

[Grimmy]

Sorry for my earlier comment - this speech is now rockin'!!! Whooo!

 

[Tamanon]

Tamanon - Obama supports Marijuana remaining criminal.

I never said he didn't, but that doesn't mean we need to spend so much money on the War on Drugs still.

 

[Vinzer Deling]

Too bad you don't have to think to post on the internet.

Go away.

You gonna make me?

 

[laserbeam]

Last I heard he wanted to cut billions from NASA's funding.

Once 2 Senators from Florida and Texas Called him saying it would cost thousands of jobs in a battleground state Obama suddenly had a speech about how important NASA is to the future.

 

[Yaweee]

Tamanon - Obama supports Marijuana remaining criminal.

He's waffled on that issue a bit, but he doesn't think the federal government should supersede all state's rights with determining drug policies.
