1: Barack Obama

The real issue is "Can capitalism save Obama from himself?" His economic policies are the exact same discredited Keynesian crap that led to Japan's 15 year recession and our Great Depression, which in the rest of the world was a brief and relatively mild depression/recession. His "stimululous" is just another word for pork. It creates no permanent jobs or improvement in the economy. It merely rewards political allies, in the proud tradition of Illinois politics.

He'd be better off going to the gym more and attempting to work on those man boobs of his, And what's with that chest waxing?

Obama going to save capitalism! Mr. Obama couldn't save the city of chicago from crooked politicians, unless he was one of them. Right now Mr. Obama find himself president with no fault of his own, he need to save himself out of it.

The picture you have attached for the great leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is a wrong picture.

the world is better off without Sadaam. I don't feel the same about the thousand of American Dead and Dismembered.. This didn't have to happen. The GOP will pay for this until they are dust in the wind.

Is it any wonder that the markets are paralyzed? Is it any wonder that that everyone has justifiable fears that an arbitrary government decision will shut down a company and its employment, or that a judge will rule against a legitimate plaintiff or defendant for arbitrary reasons? How can anyone believe in the capitalist principles of free trade, under this kind of regime?

It seems that Obama wants to do things like Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, or Fidel Castro of Cuba has done to their countries. It looks very much like Obama expects to become a dictator,

This does not sound like saving Capitalism to me. This is destroying Capitalism, and it seems this is precisely what Obama seems to want to do. He has single-handedly depressed the markets and discouraged the business community and it is a measure of his lack of qualifications to be President that he fails to understand that his election promises are profoundly unpopular with business.

I seems we have elected an anti-Capitalist dunce to the highest office in the land, and he has caused great disruptions ??? and he is not even yet inaugurated, and he has no idea what to do, and seemingly, he does not listen to his advisers either.

Merry Christmas everyone! Have a great time!

I don't believe that capitalism is the cause of the economic problems in the US and abroad. I do believe that capitalism has been misused by those who use thier position of power to enrich themselves at the expense of others, and then decry the fact that regulation will doom free market enterprise. Excessive regulation of any business is often counter productive, but some regulation is required so that business may thrive and flourish in a compeitive market. Limited oversight and greed are the two prime factors that have caused the US economy to tank. The trick is to balance oversight and trust to promote economic recovery. A difficult task when you realize that it is the taxpayer that has to shoulder the burden of capitalism's excesses to the tune of billions of dollars, while those who were blinded by their own avarice continue to fiddle like modern day Neros, while the American economy burns.

I'm going to leave you now, Bill. You're boring. That will give you some time to think something up.

Forty4- that comment you posted to me and I replied..do read it..thanks.

Wow, just stopped by, and well, Yukk...

On the one hand, Capitalism is very safe.

On the other hand, look at Detriot... It seems like only a socialistic type approach could help them.

Does capitalism need saving? After 25 years of spectacular growth interrupted only by two mild recessions (prior to the current crisis, of course), probably not. The dreamscape of liberals is a Roosevelt and Keynesian restoration with Obama come to claim the throne of his (or their) spiritual father. Keynesian pump priming didn't work during the Great Depression, during the 1990s in Japan, and it won't work now. True, it is possible that Obama's people skills will be reassuring to the country while the problems with the economy work themselves out, as Roosevelt's were. But is there anyone who still believes that Roosevelt, and not World War II, "saved capitalism?"

OF COUSE BARACK OBAMA CAN PULL US OUT OF THIS ALL HE HAS TO DO IS TAKE THE ATM CARDS AWAY FOR ONE YEAR SOUNDS CRAZY LET HIM PULL THOSE CARD AND WATCH US START SAVING AGAIN SIMPLE AS THAT
THE ASIAN INDIANS HAS A SAYING THAT GOES GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT AND WATCH THEM DESTROY THEMSELVES.

Take a 10 seconds and put yourself in Bill Smith's place. Ok, return your brain to your skull before there's any damage.

"Yes, I'm from Italy, in Pisa and I'm lookin' at the new' USA's President and at his next political work... I hope He'll be a greatest man just like the Kennedys, J.F.(the president) and Robert, just like M.L.King, Malcom X, An-gela Davies...." And many others... Bye for new Paolo Falcucci.
