DigitalShadow Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 My suggestion is to add a filter to the suggestion box so that you don't have to waste time manually sorting through all the people spamming things like "Resign."

DigitalShadow Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 It is somewhat sad that we have a president elect who appears to be reaching out and showing he is willing to listen to the people, yet most are too jaded to take the opportunity seriously and instead would rather make fun of him for it. Yes, I know you all were kidding and this is not directed at people here, but I still think that my statement is depressingly true in general.

Rico Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I think he needs to be more clear when people can expect to have their gas tanks filled up and their mortgages taken care of. I was talking on the phone with my sister and she is quite disappointed that she hasn't gotten her gas tank filled yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deseretgov Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I would suggest that if the President is to solve anything he must get rid of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve is the source of most of the major problems we have in modern society. He can try and solve the symptoms all he wants but until he removed this parasite, no real change can be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JcDean78 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 This is getting so old.Half of the voters in 2004 did not vote for Bush either. Didn't you notice he never gave a crap what any of us thought?By the way, half of the population in the country did not vote, periodElphaba Yes he did, I can not believe how many libs say Bush was so right wing and blah blah blah. Bush went out on a limb to reach out to the other side. We have No Child Left Behind, Drug Benifits, Harriet Miers, Amnesty, 700 Billion bailout, and the socialized bank buyout to name a few big ones. These are things the GOP does NOT support but the DNC does (Other that Harriet, they liked her cause she was not too "right wing").While on the flip side when the GOP had full control they failed to push through any meaningful conservative bills. They simply brought up the idea and when the DNC said "NO" they walked away without a fight.Why do you think Bush's approval ratings are so low? Do you think that the % of support he has is the last hold out of the GOP in this Republic? We just saw a huge turn out for Palin with about half the countries voters going her way. No, Bush has his approval ratings so low because he turned his back on his own party in an attempt to reach accross the asile. The Democrats hate him more than ever for it and he loses his base too. Then McCain steals the nomination and he is not that different from Bush in that he would again try and reach accross the asile while leaving his party base (Those that voted for him) in the dust in favor of those that would NEVER vote for him.I agreed with Obama though that we do not need 4 more years of a Liberal Republican like Bush. Instead we need a real conservative to run and when we do, Obama can pack his bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
