airdvr 210 #1 January 27, 2010 After reading this load of crap in our local paper this morning I thought it might be interesting to grade Obama in his freshman year. What do you think? Area residents grade President Obama's first year “He’s an F. Well, because he’s getting government too involved in our personal lives. ... health care. He’s taking choice away (with the requirement in the health care bill that nearly everyone buy health insurance), and I think when it’s said and done, our taxes are going to be sky high.” — Darlene Jett, 46, of Massillon, a Republican “A. ... because he’s a great president. He’s opened up new jobs. He’s given incentives ... the grants and things he has available (stimulus bill). ... he’s just a positive role model for all citizens, not just racial. He has great expertise. ... (he needs to work on) the housing, the local areas, a lot of empty housing. Open up group homes for the homeless.” — Orrin McAllister, 44, of Canton, a customer service representativePlease don't dent the planet.

Isn't the direction the current population wants more important than some dead guys' vision two hundred and thirty years ago? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the current population wanted the direction enough to amend our constitution to go that way, yes. However, since they don't, then no. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
