Obama rejects 2nd stimulus: Give recovery time (AP)

President Barack Obama said Saturday the $787 billion stimulus program must be given a chance to work before consideration is given to a second such jolt for the still-ailing economy. » Full Story on Yahoo! Finance

When the damange was done before President Obama in office, it needs time to recovery. Why those Republicans don't understand that? Totally they are the Idiots!!! Companies have to cut jobs to survive. When President Bush in offce, how come he told Americans "we are not in recession, just slow down...". They knew the truth, but they didn't speak out the truth. Republicans are totally the liars!

BTW, when's Michelle or yourself gonna get your "retreat" of a ranch or chateau PURCHASED w/your own money and investment$$$, so far, we haven't SEEN YOU, President Obamas make any investment$$$ out of your own POCKET book$$$. Best LEAD by example. Best, love and kisses.

Accountability FIRST is the WORD that i'm hearing from President Barack H. Obama right...cause it best be, otherwise, maybe a 3rd Simulus package's in order to make sure you don't get murdered.

I trust Warren Buffett's ability to MAKE $$$ FIRST, like he has for shareholders of BH than President Barack H. Obama, you're of a legal profession, so do your legal thing and right the WRONGS of them Wall Street Raiders who RAIDED government grants and trust funds into their own f...ing accounts here and abroad!

And, many of your appointments are not really yours, they are obviously Clintons' buddies, its sooo showing their cowardly tails ie, Geithner, a lier and a coward!

Yes he rejects it till his job aproval points drop another 10 points.
I just hope this community organizers understands that the people will not take another stimulus bill unless it's 90% tax break and not a wealth redistribution plan to people who pay no taxes.
Another failed policy by Messiah and there will be rioting in the streets. Heck the only thing keeping the people in place is food stamps and welfare but I wonder where this president will hide when the money runs out or the system crashes.

We aren't the ones who need to slow down and wait....Nothing helped us the first time....That money should have went to every tax paying USA citizen and we could have jumped started the economy ourselves by buying cars, saving people from losing their houses, and keeping people in business. Its always easy for people who don't experience any hardships to be the ones to say: Just wait everything will be alright.
So take your recovery time and stick it where the sun doesn't shine......

Follow the dollars. He owns GM and they will really fail big because few will buy their cars from Obamolet, and damn that new Camaro is hot. Ford better watch their assets because he will not allow them to make a profit while HIS Chrysler and GovernmentMotors fail. Auto buyers are doing just like stock people did when they saw he was going to get elected, got what they could now and have hunkered down hoping not to starve to death.

We joke that the guy's an idiot. He's possibly not. He may know when to back down. Realizes an attempt at a second stimulus may in fact get him.... in exponentially deeper sh*t than he's already in.

Only thing that will work is a tax cut for individuals and companies. If you haven't noticed things are really slowing down. Washington will wake up and there will be nothing left. Stock market is about to take another real hit in the next few weeks. Health Care or Cap and Trade don't worry the s*** is about to hit the fan. PAY ATTENTION!

I am surprised Obama does not want another pork package.
All of these "jobs" are in road construction which is seasonal and temporary, hardly worth the trillion dollar loan from China.

Well, that is the first smart thing he has done lately. To put good money after bad money is bad business. He needs to inlist Warren Buffets help. Putting Clintons people in place has not helped his cause either. REPUBLICIANS IN 2012!! Pu as histiry has shown about every eight years we have a good economy and every eight years we have a bad; regardless of what anyone does. It is the American people and business that tend to pull themselves out of the mess that governement creates. /food for thought...why did fuel prices go up? The foreign countries that we purchase a great deal f our oil from wanted Bush out of office. They wanted him to guit breathing down their backs. So, choke the Americans so they will vote Republicans out and out a Democrate back in. Then did you notice how the fuel prices went back down.

I also believe heknows he's given big bucks to the wrong ones , which were pledged to them before election , now there plan didn't work like they hoped it would !
but the masses have nothing to look forward to and he's seeing the disention amongst people whom voted for him but he's in definately over his head !!
but cannot defend giving more money where it belongs !
and all he can do now is to ask us to be patient and he knows were in a world of hurt !!! but what do you expect form a man with no experience ! and no real plan and the ones he's tried have failed !!!
he's out of ideas and the only thing he can think of is to tell us to be patient !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! like maxing out the mastercard and no money comming in

This is his MO. He did the same thing with the Gitmo photos, cap and trade, etc. He sets up the good guy bad guy routine. Total crap. He and everyone else knew the stimulus that had to be passed immediately was a joke, late and filled with pork. BO will have his bad guy Hoyer lay the ground work, take the hit, later he will rethink the idea and presto, 2nd stimulus.

As the people of the United States I believe that it is important for us to be able to read the bills and laws that are being sudgested before they are passed. President Obama told us we would have a chance to read these bills. We the people are the country, we the people run the country. We choose who we believe to be the best possible leader of our country. I am hoping that Obama's rejection of this second stimulus is a sign that he realises that making debt money isn't the greatest way to go. Seeing as he is our president we do have the responsibilty to support him. This doesn't mean that we can sit back and ignore what is going on, we need to look into these bills and talk to our representatives. We put them there, but if they aren't doing what we put there to do, then we can and should pull them out.

Hey, here's an idea...why don't all of you ignorant, uneducated Obama bashers keep your comments to yourselves. Do any of you realize how stupid you sound? I am embarrassed to call some of you my fellow Americans.

FOX News reports that Obama murdered Michael Jackson because he was going to reveal their pedophile sodomite ring.

I wonder just how many people of this country are sitting back on their fat asses and drawing their unemployment and waiting for someone else to create their next job for them?
Believe it or not, there are still opportunities available out there if people really want to work. But you have to resign yourself to the fact that you may have to put some real effort into getting and keeping that next job.
I've been in the construction trades since I was 17, and one of the first things I learned as an apprentice is that ALL construction jobs end. Every single one. I've been hustling work all my life. It might be advisable that others should look at life as if everything ends one day and if you wait for someone else to find your next gig for you, you could be standing around holding your dick for a very long time.

FOX News and FOX NATION are reporting that Obama murdered Michael Jackson because he was going to reveal their pedophile sodomite ring and Michelle Obama's secret skin-whitening formula.

Matt Drudge has dug up the goods on the internet and passed them on to his media minions at FOX.

Limbaugh and Pat Robertson will be selling videos proving this murder conspiracy for $79.99.

Ann Coulter and Glenn Beck (who surpassed sales of the Bible with his last effort) are collaborating on a book about the sordid criminals....which is already #1 on the Washington Times best-seller list... thougt it is yet to be written.

Palin/Limbaugh 2012! yay!

Hey, give the guy a break! He's only got just so long to bankrupt nearly every one of us. When your unemployment runs out and the states resources run dry, I'm sure FEMA will take care of you and yours.

I guess the obummer got the message from his pet clown, emanuel. The poles, the poles, we is headed down and down. And there was harry and the boys up in the senate. They said, the poles, the poles, wer'e headed for a sweep. As usual with pols, they live and die by the poles. kinda like chickens coming home to roost, aye reverend!

This government of democrats is the biggest joke this nation has ever seen in it's entire history

Democratic presidents have consistently higher economic growth and consistently lower unemployment than Republican presidents. If you add in a time lag, you get the same result. If you eliminate the best and worst presidents, you get the same result. If you take a look at other economic indicators, you get the same result. There's just no way around it: Democratic administrations are better for the economy than Republican administrations.

He's playing America like a violin. After all the destructive things he's done and is doing, only the looniest of the liberals could still be convinced of him ever doing any good. His list of insanities is becoming too long to bring up at every post. Stop denying the truth and start voting better.

Giving the stimulus time to heal our economy is like dropping a rock off a cliff and expecting it to float back into your hand.

Well, im still waiting to see what happens in the long run. Ignorant people who only care about one side or another, will speak on one side or the other. Most of the OBAMA bashers ive read on here, have been saying the SAME ol things, the SAME amount of times...which is what cost republicans the election. Lest we forget, ALL of this started back in 2000. When there wasn't a clear winner for the presidency, the stock market PLUNGED. Damn near a recession in a 2 month time span.

Now i BELIEVE that good ol' W. STOLE that election, but i have no new facts or evidence to support my theory, other than whats already out there. from 2000-2008, our economy lost a surplus, and almost went into depression. And who was on guard during those years, THE REPUBLICANS, led by dick cheney, and the biggest figure-head of a president in our history, good ol' W. i dont delve into all the ins and outs of who done what, when, where, or how, i just look at the obvious. and its gonna take Obama ALOT longer than a few months, to fix what he was handed when he took office. (oh, and a reminder to all those who forgot, THE FIRST STIMULUS, WHICH BAILED OUT WALLSTREET TO NO AVAIL, WAS THE REPUBLICANS IDEA. At least Obama's Stimulus was half way aimed at the REAL working class of America.)

as we all know, we havnt seen some improvements to the economy entirely, we have seen many factors that have been put into the problem such as government scams, jobs shipping over to seas, taxes going towards those shipped jobs and other unnecessary places, as well as what we could have done to save money. but this is only what the news presents us, there are also other things such as uneven distribution of food, inequality among race, poverty, women and the goal of coexistence that has yet to be reached. when one thing is out of balance, it can affect many other things as well. if we work together we can do anything and restore balance.
