Wow the president gets basically anything he wants. This is just a guess but I think that RIM worked with NSA so Obama could keep his Blackberry for advertising purposes. I mean of course you want the most known person and business man in the U.S. to be using your product. I just hope he doesn't lose it.

for real? Hes be president for 4 months. Be a little patient! It took bush a couple years to screw it up, give obama a couple years to fix it.

Boy I'd like to trash Obama right now too, but let's be honest, this is a phone forum... Yeah, take a jab here and there (I have), but writing an essay on how much you dislike and hate Obama?... Not to classy on a phone forum dude.

Do you even know how long it took us to get out of the last depression? President Roosevelt proposed and created so many new laws but it only affected the economy just a little bit. And I think it's good that Obama is getting aquainted with world powers because if he needs their cooperation in some global problem/plan in the near future, negotiations won't be as difficult as difficult because he had already taken the time to familiar himself with those people. It's always about communication and relationships. That's one of the reasons why Ronald Raegan (I don't think that's spelled right) was such a good president.

he said spread the wealth he want to tke a peice of every one pay check and do whatg he want with it thats equally poor / im so against corporated greed but i dont think that large corp. should get highr tax rate if they do that they will have to cut people there are alot of companies that arnt involved in corp greed / they will have to lay people off because they cant afford to pay them because of highr tax or no tax breaks thus highering the unemployment rate

his ideas sounded great on paper......he just doesnt have the experiance and to jump straght into a crisis ,a crisis so huge in itself, and to have the little ui mean little experiance he has was stupid the people loved him hjis smile his rolled up sleeves he was a celebrity he looked great on paper but much like his policies (not all of them he has some good points i like) only good on paper

dude, nobody really has the experience to handle the situation this country is in. Nobody knows exactly how to change the economy and knows exactly the outcome. Its always going to be "lets try this, we think this will work". I understand someone older and someone that has governed a state, maybe more "qualified", but that still doesn't mean they know what the heck their doing.

12. Osukaru posted on 24 Apr 2009, 08:31

I Know How To Fix The Problem...... Give Every American $150,000 1. People Would Buy Cars 2. People Would Pay Off/Catch Up On Home Morgtage 3. People Would Pay Off Credit Cards 4. People Would Spend In General! Problem Solved, No Need For Bailouts for greedy companys this makes it so that they only get what they deserve unlike it is now they get the money the consumer gets nothing out of it for the most part, still gotta pay their bills Etc....

13. drewsky posted on 24 Apr 2009, 09:03

LOL I wish it was that easy.

17. Fanboys Suck posted on 24 Apr 2009, 12:27

@drewsky: Romney FTW!! (hopefully in the future)

19. artz1986 posted on 24 Apr 2009, 12:53

20. artz1986 posted on 24 Apr 2009, 13:03

Thats where i come from lol.... im here legally before anyone starts making random comments regarding this

27. Astromanaught posted on 24 Apr 2009, 15:10

Theres this thing, you may of heard of.. its called inflation? So what happens when everyone has all this "money" this means that this "money" isnt worth anything. The value of the dollar is in its scarcity. On to my real point. This is a phone Forum. not a Political forum. Based on some of the very uneducated responces, thank God its not

28. tanders04 posted on 24 Apr 2009, 15:39

That was stupid when it first showed up on the internet and the math was wrong. The fact that people still use it to illustrate some kind of point is pretty hilarious.

29. Kiltlifter posted on 24 Apr 2009, 16:05

this is the most idiotic comment i have ever seen. You give everyone 150k and everything will increase in price, so cars will worth 100k plus for like a chevy aveo.. You are a moron... stop posting

30. drewsky posted on 24 Apr 2009, 17:12

YEA, but most people have no clue who that is.

32. yourmom07 posted on 24 Apr 2009, 19:52

right before that last sentence i was going to make one. haha

35. att_agent posted on 25 Apr 2009, 09:17

your a liar haha!

36. heavybreathing posted on 25 Apr 2009, 12:49

You're the biggest idiot in the world. You think the dollar is worth nothing now? Imagine throwing 300 TRILLION DOLLARS in free money out in the economy at once. Inflation times 10,000,000. Thats how you throw the entire planet into a depression that we could not get out of.

6. ATTXBM posted on 24 Apr 2009, 06:38

i would have to agree with both of u, att_agents idea, but vitamins right its only been 4 months.

7. att_agent posted on 24 Apr 2009, 06:41

ya sure it has only been 4 months sure it will take some time but he is in a trial and error mode not somthing i would agree with

8. ATTXBM posted on 24 Apr 2009, 06:44

9. att_agent posted on 24 Apr 2009, 07:11

14. krosref posted on 24 Apr 2009, 09:11

15. phoneguy posted on 24 Apr 2009, 10:01

att_agent you are lewd and unacceptable. You are ignorant and uninformed.

33. E.N. posted on 24 Apr 2009, 20:14

That was very unneccessary

37. vzw fanman posted on 25 Apr 2009, 13:00

that was funny.

38. E.N. posted on 26 Apr 2009, 14:42

You just like to annoy people vzw fanman. You see people angry and unhappy and you just had to add that you thought it was funny. That's something you could have kept to yourself.

39. vzw fanman posted on 26 Apr 2009, 18:06

haha lol :-)...and the point of your reply was??

40. E.N. posted on 27 Apr 2009, 00:53

Oh there was no point for my reply. I was just writing for fun.

10. ATTXBM posted on 24 Apr 2009, 07:13

nu uh!!!!!!!!!!!!?

18. vzw fanman posted on 24 Apr 2009, 12:30

does he have verizon

21. Fanboys Suck posted on 24 Apr 2009, 13:03

He's got AT&T, Verizon, Metro, Sprint, T-Mo, Virgin and every other cell service available. The official President's Phone that he has (other than his Blackberry) is CDMA and GSM capable and it is engineered to work where there is cell service regardless of what technology the closest cell tower is. All in all, I am sure he's got great coverage wherever he is.

22. artz1986 posted on 24 Apr 2009, 13:07

nah, he's always droppin calls.. that's why he's having a hard time getting anything done...

23. Legion posted on 24 Apr 2009, 13:37

I was pretty sure he has verizon.

25. Osukaru posted on 24 Apr 2009, 13:53

Yes He Does Have Verizon

26. Fanboys Suck posted on 24 Apr 2009, 14:01

@arts: Bahahaha!!! Couldn't agree more!

34. att_agent posted on 25 Apr 2009, 08:05
