When we buy gas, and pay that 18 cent tax, we expect it to be used for roads and bridges, not be held up as as a political strategy from the Tea Party, for their agenda and their agenda is power politics, in other words defeat Obama by destroying jobs. these radicals finally came to their senses, when somebody from the right smacked them across the head, and told them that a failure to pass this bill could be used against them when they run in the next election.
Besides who do you think the students are that is going to be benefitting from this? 33%- 60% of the registrations to colleges were Arab after the post 9/11 ban on travelers and student visas coming from Middle Eastern countries was lifted. Didn't take them long to start taking advantage of us again. Our kids sure won't, they have trouble getting into college while bums from other nations get in, get free room and board, books and tuition paid. Not bad for one of the richest countries in the world, they come to America to get the best education. We should kick all these bloodsucker out of the country, tell them to educate their own kids and we should concentrate on educating our own children.
But I understand. Concepts like these escapes you. Obama. Most needed person to be jailed in 2012.
You made yourself quite clear about what you stand for and it's not about Americans working and having better lives. Jail, you say? Republican Obstructionism is anti American in the least. Begin there.
Anti-American. Interesting you should say that when you are all about allowing those who cross illegally to get a pass. Republican Obstructionism would seem to be a better course of action than your boy, Obama's Clearinghouse Giveaway of our nation. It's good that the few kids of the US that are lucky enough to get into college are benefitting from something for once, but I stand by my assertion that foreign students need to look to their own countries for their education needs instead of the US hooking them up.
Construction workers...

Construction workers get to keep working. Took Obama almost 4years to do that, but that's okay. He touts almost 4 million jobs created, he added 10 times the number of Federal workers in his 4 years in office than Reagan did in his 8 years in office, but that's okay too. But how many jobs were lost due to his inaction? Or is that okay by you too?
DON'T FEED THE TROLL!
"Nobody deserves anything unless they earn it!! How, pray tell, is a high school student from an average family supposed to earn $30-$50.000 dollars for a year of college without the skills or knowledge to find a VERY well paying job?? How man thousands of families have had their jobs outsourced by those "venture capitalists" you mention below, and now can't even get help from their familiy who has lost, or is close to losing their home, thanks to those same venture capitalists!
"Deregulate" those venture capitalists? Like Messrs Dimon and Diamond so they can put us back even deeper into the mess caused by the Bush and Republican administrations??
Obama is also working on those other 400 items you mentioned, you can bet! Getting our people educated for the future should be #401!?? Are you nuts??
If I live to be 76 I will never see anything stupider than your rant...where are your values??.
I'm a baby boomer baby, but you must be a 'baby boomer baby's baby or the next generation, crying for 'entitlement' that you don't deserve. The only thing that ANYONE in America deserves is a CHANCE to provide for themselves, and at some point to become independently wealthy if things work out that way when they excel from hard work, and refuse to give up on their dream. Once they achieve the 'American Dream', they should not be penalized for working hard, for not being lazy and living off the government, or for achieving the American Dream that many others have been able to obtain from perseverance and intestinal fortitude.
The American Dream is not what Obummer stresses it to be. It is to become wealthy enough to provide for yourself and your family making them accustomed to a better way of life than you had. It is NOT just being equal to your neighbor with the s...

The American Dream is not what Obummer stresses it to be. It is to become wealthy enough to provide for yourself and your family making them accustomed to a better way of life than you had. It is NOT just being equal to your neighbor with the same 'Pleasant Valley Sunday' house as everyone else, and the same income as everyone else from a 5 day 40 hour work week. This way of thinking is Socialistic, and it would be prudent for anyone just 'going along with this teaching' because it sounds good, to research any and all former and present Countries that are/have been being run under this continuously failing form of government. No Socialist/Communist government has lasted as long as America's Capitalistic system, unless of course you include some of the other conditions which were enforced which I would hope would not be used here, such as the killing of the lower class to control population.
As to the rest of your nonsense, we will see in short time if Mr. Obummer will continue to drive us even further 'FORWARD' toward the bottom of the ditch that he claimed he would get us out of in his first 3 years, and still hasn't even come close to achieving. He campaigned on taking over the economy that Bush 'ruined' and said, 'Give it to me'. Now he claims that he inherited it? How can you inherit something that you begged the American People to 'Give' to you? He's NUTS, and doesn't have a clue. I'm sure that he is a really good Community Organizer, but he sucks as a president because he has NO concept of how America is supposed to work as it has for over 225 years now, and he seems to be hell bent to change it from a successful Capitalistic system of profit to a Socialistic Nanny State of entitlement like the former United Soviet SOCIALIST Republic. That's his idea of 'Fundamentally Transforming America', bring America down to her knees and start over as a Socialist government.

How many of you are even aware of that from your precious "Hope and Change" president?
We in the U.S. are very near that place, except those of you on the right side of the political spectrum haven't yet caught on to how enslaved you have become to the billionaires and Reagan Banks and corporations of Wall Street who control your destiny and lives and have taken nearly all of your savings and assets for themselves. When you realize what has happened to you, then the revolution will be underway and the "New Aristocrats" and Reagan Banks will begin to think of Marie Antoinette and the Czars of Russia.
"Citizens United" has sold us out to any foreign country that wants to manipulate us, and the "Superpacs" don't give a DAMN where the money comes from as long as they end up with the deed to the U.S!
