Are you referring to her 2009 interview? I saw it. She also was intolerant of the partisanship.

Awww shyyt here come the she's just a RINO attacks! Then again, I notice that most republicans, upon retirement and free of party ideaology always seem to lean center left/ center when it comes to their feelings on policy. Only pure nutcases remain in the GOP and Teabagger nation!

so if there's a financial collapse 3 weeks before someone's inaugurated, they should fix it overnight? Have you researched recessions? And this was a big sucker.

Wrong! Obama's policies are improving the economy and ACA will help small businesses.

LOL! Name just one sector of our whole economy thats gotten better under obama then?

With the passage of ACA, health care. Corporations are making record profits during the Obama presidency.

reply

LMAO!Oh really? Since Obama and the Democrates have all been complaining about Companies holding on to billions of dollars- all because of their fears of Obama care

reply
Samantha to AL 2012/07/18 22:22:04

There's no evidence to support your claim. During the Obama Administration, corporations are making record profits; however, they make a lie of the conservative claim that giving tax breaks to corporations creates jobs. All conservatives have is lie after lie after lie.

reply
AL to Samantha 2012/07/27 06:01:35

LMAO!What planet are you living on now anyway? Because there isn't even one sector in our whole economy that has improved since the day Obama took office in fact

Change is always difficult. Be careful what you wish for you just might get it. I knew that there would be a lot of people hurting for the current administration to make the changes it was trying for. And I knew that I would be one of them that was hurting. Like it says in the movie....everything comes out perfectly in the end....if it's not perfect, it's not the end!
