A growing weakness on the international stage. Not since Carter has there ever been such a display to the world. This enboldens America's enemies.
Would you like me to list these demonstrations, or do you deny that any exists.

I'm not sure I follow you. Accomplishments do not equal socialistic acts.
Well.... that is... last time I checked the constitution.
* The happy go-lucky Swedish have been quoted saying even they wouldn't be prepared to bail out and own car factories.
* That little nationalized health care plan be proposed that has been proven to be unsustainable we can't afford
* Wealth distribution .... demonstrated best by cash for clunkers.
* The president has admitted that he doesn't believe in trickle down economics.
* Government dependency programs growing
* Call for more government regulation
* Government spending was 37% of GDP in 2008... I fear what new highs this year will reach.
* Bailouts: They are privatizing gains and socializing losses.
* Don't get me started on what is being taught in public schools.
and the list goes on...
More?

The olympics *rarely* turn a profit... they do the opposite. Especially in corrupt city such as Chicago..
Especially in the situation the US is in for many years to come.
It was an excuse for the fed government to write itself a check, and have future adminsitration blame past administrations when it fails while they line their pockets.
Chicago has got its issues aline...

I take it then you didn't read it because you wouldn't need to ask would you.

Why would the OLC give a hoot about their kids or michelle sitting on her Dad's lap when she was 20.
"Not just as a mother raising two beautiful young women to embrace athleticism and pursue their full potential. I'm also asking as a daughter. See, my dad would have been so proud to witness these Games in Chicago. And I know they would have meant something much more to him, too. You see, in my dad's early thirties, he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. And as he got sicker, it became harder for him to walk, "...
The fail boat has docked already...
The president basically was also just ... "its not about me" but yeah... it really is...
Walk with him on a journey to the olympics in Chicagoo... blah blah..

Basically your statement of Fox news in itself isn't fair or bipartisan. There are conservative independents and democrats you know...
Say what you will ... they are the media that are changing other major media sources. ABC and CNN refused to cover Acorn corruption and Van Jones until they couldn't play it down any more. The white house is tied to CNN/ABC/CBS so tightly that heads roll when anything really negative against the administration is uncovered and put out by these media giants. Its changing though for the better; which is wonderful ... recent Detroit and Chicago are examples of this....

Government officials only treat themselves to the best at the expense of tax payers is what I was trying to get across. They are the true definition of elitism.
here is a stat top of the google lookup....
Government salaries vs. private sector salaries - CNN.com
Most of them can't even be bothered to read bills they pass.
Look at the amount of vacation and pay...
You say "do not"... back it up my friend.
