What was the context of the quote? Hopefully it was positive on something that made good sense. I looked online, but didn't find anything.

manufacturing of these type of products is dead in the U.S., your right NAFTA hurt the manufacturing industry the worst, but now it is time to change the industry into something more profitable.
nobody is saying the recession is over. they are saying it is slowly recovering. even if McCain was in office the economy would be in the same state or worse, because he would probably be trying to blow up Iran. you conservative rejects take every piece of nonsense and try to twist it into a negative pile of idiocy. try to use some logical thinking and initiate your own change, instead of waiting for politicians to save you.
You think we wanted McLame in office? Wow, your a little out of touch with what is really going on out here.
The Globalists are trying to setup America to fall.
Most Democrats are in on the deal, and a few Republicans.
Obama right now is spending us into oblivion to collapse the dollar.
He is killing the employment by killing private businesses with a government takeover.
The housing market, the auto industry and the banks to start with.
Now he is going after healthcare. The house just passed the 2000 page bill......to take over your very life. Let's pray to God it doesn't pass the Senate.

You leftists don't see what is going on right in front of your own eyes.
And alot of you don't care.

Let's all pray to God the American People (left and right) wake up in time!!!!!

oh, how i love ripping your un-educated comments to shreds:

who is we? or are you so out of the loop that you did not see Obama win the election by a landslide? republicans, democrats, and independents all voted for Obama. now you scared crybaby p**sies are crying foul? typical GOP c*ck suckers.

Globalists setting up America to fail? how? enlighten me.

Collapse of the dollar is Obama's falt? is it not the fault of the stock market that the dollar is falling? because people took their money out of these markets and are putting them into Gold and Oil. something that is physical and real. money is not real. that is why the dollar is losing value. how about the fed rates? 0-.25%? don't think that has to do with inflation and devaluation of the dollar? when you get free money it tends to lose its value. how about the big corporation that bet American capitalism on deals gone bad? are they not to blame.

government is ruining private businesses? this is probably the most ignorant out of all your stupid comments. the foundation of American business is small businesses, not big corporations. just because AIG has been around for 100yrs does not mean it did not start as a small business. Best Buy was a small business before it expanded from Minnesota. Google was a college project, now its stock prices are hitting $600. small business is private business not corporate. you only go corporate when your small business is successful making money and for tax purposes.

do you not think some of these corporation are to big for their own good? they think they can get away with anything and at the expense of the American people. is it not the responsibility of our government to protect us from over zealous corporation? i do not mind the takeover of banks and insurance companies. FthoseP. for years banks and insurance have sucked dry the American people. not it is time for the American people to hit back. i say break all the government purchased corporation into smaller companies. let a new up and coming small business take their place. get rid of the "old" money. time for some new money. people with fresh ideas and a new vision for America.

how you like that burn?

You stated "oh, how i love ripping your un-educated comments to shreds". If you are so educated, edit your own horse manure because it is the work of an uneducated fool.

nah, no thanks. don't really find the need to edit a forum. you are the one who is concerned with grammar. if i was submitting a thesis or dissertation that may be published then maybe i would be concerned with grammar.

my uneducated comment was referring to a lack of educated ideas and nonsense, not grammar.

I buy bulk parts from Leviton. Recently they started manufacturing them in China. Needless to say, the quality went down. They have always been goofy and hard to deal with anyway.

When buying tools, appliances, etc, ask the salesperson if it difficult to get replacement parts. You may be surprised to learn that so many of the items are made in China and you CANNOT buy replacement parts.

The US military berets are made in CHINA. We are so far in debt and continue to borrow money from China, so we have NO choice but to keep buying from them. Something the pols dont mention or want to talk about. How's that for the law of supply and demand.

You call a 5% margin a landslide? You must be a liberal with your rose colored glasses on too tight.
McClame defeated himself by trying to be like you liberal idiots.
If you knew anything about the election, you would know that the conservatives for the most part stayed home and didn't vote. They saw how the media kept pushing liberal McCain as a Republican.....and they will do it again in 2012. They have been doing that for 20 some years now. Thank God, people are waking up to their game.
For you? You drank the Obama Koolaide.
Did you see your boy BOW to the Japanese Emperor now? What a loser. Fist the Saudi King and your state controlled media denied it, when it was soooooooo obvious.

You haven't seen the news about China, Russia and middle eastern countries talking about droppig the dollar? You haven't noticed all over the place people are trying to buy gold? The world gold supply is gone? You haven't noticed the printing of the dollar like it's going out of style? Why do you think China doesn't want to lend us anymore money? You haven't noticed the healthcare bill has nothing to do with healthcare, but control over your very life? You haven't noticed the cap and trade bill that will tax the heck out of everybody to save the world from carbon emissions to prevent global warming, besides the fact that the temperatures are getting colder with more c02?
You haven't noticed the unemployment reach a 26 year high? You didn't notice the whole financial collapse was started with the undocumented Democrats starting with Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton with the community reinvestment act?
Where are the jobs dufus?
Your boy BO (body odor) said he was going to pass the almost 1 trillion dollar stimulus to create shovel ready jobs. Where are they.....idiot?
The collapse of the dollar and the whole financial meltdown was caused by the Democrats and the Democrats alone.
http://www.youtube.com/watch...

Enlighten you? Impossible, your too stupid to enlighten. You could be slapped in the face with the truth and you would still not understand it.

The only thing I agree with you on is business. But your boy BO is trying to kill business. You haven't heard if you don't buy the $15,000 healthcare plan you go to jail?
Your sister Pelosi is a freaking nutjob. Why do you think if the healthcare bill passes it won't even go into effect until 2013? Hello McFly? Think about it.
The reason is, that 2012 the re election will be done and the people will wake up too late to what this healthcare bill is REALLY about and it will be too late.

Good luck lib.

You can thank Bill Clinton with NAFTA and the liberals with all of their environmenal rules forcing businesses out of the U.S.

You libs will never get it.
Keep drinking the Obama Koolaide for your hope and change.

Hey maybe we need more regulations on more businesses here so more of them go over seas or across the border where there are no environmental regulations?
Hmmmmm.....

This are the results of the gifts from NAFTA and CAFTA. The two things both political parties whisper about or change the subject. Clinton signed one and Bush the other.

So, who do you like Obama? You are against all thoughts and ideas. I see a pattern here. Hate Bush, hate McCain, hate Obama. Who do you like? Why didn't you run for president?

Take a side somewhere. Take a stance. You seem worried that your jobs will be sent out of the country. What kind of job do you have?

All of these decisions will favor big money. No matter how much you wish to interject. It's very easy to go negative and not so simple to go positive and constructive.
