President-elect and House Republicans Bond Over Transparency; Biden Says Economic Crisis Means Congress Must Act As if "We're At War"

Someone should tell "Blood & Guts" Biden that if your at war, you need to identify the enemy first.

That means one of the first orders of business is to remove Barney Frank from the Chair of the House Financial Services Committee.

Plugs Biden declares war!!
That's a hoot!! This man is a TRUE coward and HE declares WAR!!
If the POTUS and VPOTUS were serious about this they would get to the bottom of who started this, who allowed this to continue and start tossing Congress and Senate BUTTS in the Federal Prison system and collect every penny back from those criminals!! Sell all their property and assets! Stop all the photo-opts and the posturing.....You all make me sick! It is way past time to bring those responsible to the table and make ALL (everybody) criminals confess and restore faith back into the system, be you Republican or Democrate!!

"We're at war" in our own country will help push that HR 393 through...and reduce the unemployment problem to boot!

And speed reduces the opportunity to scrape out the pork.

Sounds like politicians' dreams come true, and more like a nightmare for the rest of us every day.

Oh so Rahm has a voice again. Thats nice to know.

Does that mean everyone has to be afraid and must accept everything they say? I've already gone through that for the last eight years.

So now Biden has declared "war" o the economy! Well LBJ had a "war" on poverty, Reagan had a "war" on drugs... Looks like the ONLY Government does is create and subsidize problems INSTEAD of actually solve them. But why should they, since every problem gets thrown MORE of YOUR money at it! If they fixed it, they wouldn't have a JOB! Thanks BIG GOVERNMENT!!! Ugh!

Somebody needs to remind Biden not to talk.

How about a new sitcon -- "Are you smarter than Odummer". Probably out draw the current fair.

How dare you people criticize the GREATEST PRESIDENT ever before he takes office!

"The Cantor idea": Too funny!!!

I'm sure Sarah Palin has a brilliant grasp of the problem and should be flown to the lower forty eight to offer her input.

I agree with the Obamacrat. Barack Obama doesn't take on Washington politics, he takes on Republicans. He knew Gov. Blagojevich was selling his Senate seat, and he said nothing. When Gov. Murkowski bought a private jet for the Governor's office with taxpayer money, Sarah put it on eBay. Gov. Richardson was giving away state government contracts in exchange for campaign contributions, and in exchange for his endorsement in the Democratic Primary, Barack Obama nominated him for Sec. of Commerce. When Sen. Stevens brought home $300M in federal pork for the Bridge to Nowhere, Gov. Palin said "thanks, but NO, thanks." I'm a Democrat that supports Sarah Palin because unlike Barack Obama, she doesn't think her party can do no bad.

So Biden played straight man to some of the comic relief offered by Obama. They play off each other well.

I used to support President Elect Barack Obama, but the Bush-Obama bailout is an outrage. Only George and Barack can call their record deficit spending "investments" "in the future." We the American people voted with our dollars to put General Motors out of business. The Untied Autoworkers Union makes $73/hr, $150K/yr for assembling vehicles, but when we, the American people, say "that's too much" by buying Toyota, and Nissan, and Hyundai, the United States Government says "noooo... if you don't buy their cars, we're going to give them your tax money." They don't deserve to exist. The UAW striked GM's only profitable factory, the Chevy Cobalt's, as soon as GM turned in a profitable quarter last year; by definition, they will never be a viable company, ever. And now Blue states want "federal" money because they can't keep up their spending. New York Gov. David Paterson (D), New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine (D), Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick (D), Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland (D) and Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle (D) just said they need $1T of "federal" money to "stay afloat," and by "stay afloat" they mean to keep up their frivolous spending. They spent and spent and spent, and now that they're out of money, they are asking the "federal government" to give them money, but ladies and gentlemen, what they mean by "federal government" is red states that actually lived within their means, states that spent no more than they tax. Now they want the "federal" government to send the message, if you spend too much, don't worry, we will take it from someone that saved. and if you don't spend like drunken sailors, if you actually save your tax revenues for a rainy day, like today, you're wasting your time, because the federal government is going to come in and take it from you anyways. and they call this unity: Red states make and Blue states take. This is the fight of our day. Palin '12. PUMA!
