Obama Offers Help To Greece

I guess the US economy is just zipping right along and everyone in this country is doing great, because Obama is offering to help out Greece. I hope Obama it talking about "help" other than money.

"President Barack Obama on Tuesday urged European countries and bondholders to prevent a "disastrous" default by Greece and pledged U.S. support to help tackle the country's debt crisis."

Oh Goth. This coming from Sarah Palin's #1 supporter!

Goth... do us all a favor and maybe find yourself a nice little brain.

I imagine Goth watching the news, waiting for Obama to make his speech, with two different posts to go as soon as the decision is announced:

"Obama Offers Help To Greece" OR "OBAMA TURNS BACK ON DESPERATE NATION."

This is like one bum offering another money

We are a financial basket case & we are offering help to another one. This is a country (Greece) whose citizens want to make no sacrifices much like ours. Sure lets help them out. I am quite sure the Chinese are thrilled with this offer seeing as we owe them a ton of money & they are not getting paid back anytime soon. God help us if China turns off the spigot. We will than be going with a tin cup in hand to anyone foolish enough to lend us any money.

Curiouser & curiouser.

So sorry you feel that way Roxy- ever thought of moving to a country you could believe in? I bet you'd be happier in a nation you support and feel is the best in the world- capable of anything.

But then you Republicans have always hated America. Such a shame.

But then you Republicans Democrats have always hated America.

Fixed that for you.

The point of this article is that Obama is giving away money that we don't have. If Greece needs to be bailed out, let Europe do it.

Obama's hatred for the US is evident in that every decision he makes goes against the interests of the US. And it looks like he is trying to sign us up for a fourth war.

The point of the article seemed to me to be about persuading Europe, specifically Germany, to step in.

But maybe I misread it.

Obama hates the USA. Obama is a Muslim. Obama was not born here. Obama is a terrorist. Obama did not write any of his books. Obama could not have got in to Harvard on his own.

Your hate and lies really do show your true colors Goth!

Goth, Bill Clinton left us a surplus. Where was your outrage when Bush and the GOP spent it? So,it's OK for the GOP to spend as much $$$ as they want but then we have a different set of rules when the Democrats are in office.

“In 2000 Bush TOOK the SURPLUS Clinton left us and GAVE to the RICH and BIG BUSINESS!

Perhaps maybe Obama should keep his nose out of it. There's a reason why there's a European Union and a United Nations.

Obama isn't doing so well on the world stage. The Palestinians have now said they won't dialogue with Israel until Israel returns to Obama's recommendation of 1967 borders.

So similarly Reagan should have minded his own business about the Berlin Wall, to take one example?

Goth,believe whatever spin on history you like. The majority know the truth. Obama is doing way better on the world stage then you may think.Nice having a President who is not greeted by protestors no matter where he goes.

Obama can't win with critics like you who are just unfair. Like Joe said, if Obama ignored them you'd criticize him as well. You know you would.

RT, An entirely different matter. The Berlin Wall was erected to keep people trapped in Communism. Reagan was working for people to be free and have control of their destiny. Greece's problem is they are like Obama and can't get control of their economy.

You mean like Obama and Bush, yes?

Roth (my time-saving combo name for Roxy and Goth) are just racists in their criticisms of Obama.

Posted: 6/9/11 at 11:45am

I'm kind of puzzled how hating to pay a penny in taxes and bitching constantly means you LOVE your country.

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 6/9/11 at 11:52am

Goxy (my other time saving combo of their names) might have a shred of credibility if "the economy" had ever been an area of their concern before Obama got in.

^ Or what we did in other countries.

[Gothampc]

Posted: 6/9/11 at 12:04pm

I have always said that Bush's part in the bailouts was wrong.

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 6/9/11 at 12:05pm

Not here you haven't.

[Gothampc]

Posted: 6/9/11 at 12:08pm

^^^ Oh yes I have.

Posted: 6/9/11 at 12:15pm

No critique of the economic sinkhole of the needless war in Iraq either. No commentary of how it was kept off the books, either. Just blissful la-dee-dahs as you root root rooted for your home team.

Roxy too. But he's naturally too dumb to think of it until Rupert Murdoch puts it in front of his face. You, on the other hand, have no excuse.

Well we'll see how Obama does with the two additional wars that he has added to the American taxpayer.

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 6/9/11 at 12:57pm

I agree. It would have been nice to hear you voice anything even remotely resembling this level of concern about war and the taxpayer before he came into office.

Goth, where have you been recently that you can comment on other countries and their view of Obama?
