According to one survey, America’s CEOs don’t put a lot of stock in Barack Obama. Some even worry that

his programs would bankrupt the country within three years.

Hmmmm. I’d say he’s about three years ahead of schedule then, wouldn’t you?

Let me see: Bush has screwed things up, our top business leaders (financial sector) have screwed things up.

But you see that as a reason to stay the course because you are afraid of Pelosi.

If things are this bad Pelosi could not possibly be worse than what you have now.

And no, that is no connection to Rev. Wright. He has nothing to do with this conversation.

Simmer, you are one of those paranoid people McCain has been trying to talk down at his rallies, shouting epithets and oozing fear and outrage.

When are you going to face reality ?

JTB: “Obama would have to try really hard to screw things up more than Bush has done. Our GOP has not made the case why the American People should reward Bush’s pals to stay around for another four years.“ Agree that Bush has screwed things up in many ways, including wars.

However is that a reason to elect an affirmative action candidate with no experience and give the DEMs a free pass? Do you really want a Reid, Pelosi, Obama triumpvir (look it up)? Think it through.

“America’s top business leader” is a title of shame, not something to be proud of.

You and Rev. Wright are of the same ilk. Good post about “g-damn America”.

Several of the blabbering-class among the Right wing-nuts who blog are trying very hard to label Obama as a Socialist.

The chief flaw in that line of attack is that Americans LOVE Socialism.

In spite of all the blather about being free of government intrusion, the Republicans have done everything possible to grow government and have spear-headed the creation of our very own secret police, the Department of Homeland Security. Under Bush, domestic spying has become the norm, imprisonment without trial is also widely practiced. Most heinous is the rendering of legitimate visitors to our country to be tortured in other countries.

How’s that square with your Religious Reich “family values?“

As for Socialism, our water and sewerage system is a socialist system, our roads are a socialist system, police and fire, also a socialist system, schools: socialist, government employment:socialist and even our military is socialist in its structure (merit plays no role in selection or promotion; “leaders” are picked based on their perceived “diversity” quotient), and of course there is Social Security.

The open market and health care are just about the only functions left that are not already fully socialist in their structure. A National Health Service is a good idea, since it would lift the insurance burden from the citizens and businesses, and with all of the intervention by government to bail out Wall Street, does anyone harbor the fantasy that we have a free market anymore?

Finally, Bush pissed away a TRILLION dollars on an undeclared war in Iraq. We could have funded a National Health Service with that money, or provided much needed assistance in the form of college grants. Instead, all we have to show for “W’s Adventure” is a generation of soldiers with mental and physical scars. What a waste.

Obama would have to try really hard to screw things up more than Bush has done. Our GOP has not made the case why the American People should reward Bush’s pals to stay around for another four years.

I’ve known a CEO or two. Some are outstanding stellar folk, some are scum of the earth.

The act of “leading an organization” is vastly overrated. Vastly.

What it really means is jiggle the balance sheet to raise the stock price, sell off assets, remove all monies from R&D;, outsource to cut costs to the bone, offshore to avoid all taxes, demand high compensation from the good old boys on the compensation committee, invest in lobbyists to hide pollution and accounting irregularities, and let junior underlings do all the actual day-day business of running the company while you attend golf vacations and high-level resort conferences with your secretary or trophy wife, whichever comes first.

If it all falls apart, make a few excuses and collect that golden parachute.

If the thorough trashing of the financials were not proof positive of what these fellows are really made of, just consider anyone who sits behind a mahogany desk all day on the 25th floor instead of outside in the hustle and bustle is no person I would trust to know what is best for me and mine.

Even an idiot could see that losing the Bush legacy means losing the tax cuts.

You put a pig in the trough and expect him not to eat ??? How dumb is that.

“America’s top business leader” is a title of shame, not something to be proud of.

article: “...74 percent of America’s top business leaders fear “an Obama presidency would be disastrous for the country.“ Hmmm.
Just because these people have actually led an organization does not make them credible. Until they have the guts to say “G-damn America”, then NObama should not listen to these racists.
