How you 'feeling?'
How are the Obama voters feeling?
Pretty good. Thanks for asking.
Feeling good about the massive run of major bank failures not seen since the 1930s that President Obama helped us avert.
Feeling good about pulling back from the second Great Depression that economists were 50-50 on the country sliding into after Bush's disaster. Thanks in part to the stimulus.
Feeling good about the stock market soaring from the level it was at when Bush left office. Stock market gains generally pre-sage hiring by about 9 months (historically), which we're now starting to see turn around. Feeling good about that.
Feeling good that 30 million people who would be walking into emergency rooms getting really expensive care that the rest of us would pay for are instead going to be on health insurance, where they can be treated more efficiently, more effectively and with less fear and suffering to them.
Feeling good about my country no longer being loathed and disrespected in the world in general.
Feeling good that the man who's been directing a terrorist network, but Bush bizarrely stopped caring about, has been found and neutralized.
Feeling good that we finally have a man in office not paid by oil interests and therefore able to talk honestly with Americans about the fact that we cannot drill our way out of foreign oil dependency.

Obama killed Usama
via Matt Parker at TP "Incredible that Republicans are falling over themselves ignoring Obama and instead offering obscene praise for George Bush and his "role" in taking out bin Laden. Bush's "role" was actually to delay this accomplishment by years because of his incompetence and obsession with the costly disaster in Iraq. Bush did nothing..."

Bush Knew
I ask you to imagine how much different our world would be if WikiLeaks had existed 10 years ago. Take a look at thisphoto. That's Mr. Bush about to be handed a "secret" document on August 6th, 2001. Its heading read: "Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US." And on those pages it said the FBI had discovered "patterns of suspicious activity in this country consistent with preparations for hijackings." Mr. Bush decided to ignore it and went fishing for the next four weeks.

US CHAMBER AND FOREIGN MONEY...
HOW THE 'US' CHAMBER USES IT'S MONEY TO PAY PUNDITS, MANIPULATE GOOGLE, AND CREATE FAKES NEWS OUTLETS
via think progress:
– Manipulating Google And Blogs: The U.S. Chamber of Commerce retains public relations giant Fleishman-Hillard for much of their online communications work. Fleishman-Hillard VP Pat Cleary posts on the Chamber’s blog, and says he works closely with conservative bloggers through RedState. Other Chamber lobbyists collaborate routinely with conservative bloggers through the Heritage Foundation’s Bloggers Briefing to help get the message out for business lobbyists. As Cleary has told conferences of business lobbyists, he helps trade associations like the Chamber buy AdWords to promote the business lobby’s message. For example, when anyone Googles the words “US Chamber” and “foreign,” they see a link to the Chamber’s false response that it receives only $100,000 from foreign affiliates.
– Paying For Television Pundits: GOP lobbyist John Feehery has appeared on cable television to attack ThinkProgress’ reporting, taken to Twitter call President Obama a “business-hating socialist” for calling attention to this story, and even penned an article in The Hill newspaper to defend the Chamber and lie about our investigation. Feehery never mentioned the foreign corporate direct donations to the Chamber’s 501(c)(6). But more importantly, neither The Hill nor any of television outlets Feehery appears on disclosed the fact that Feehery’s public relations firm, The Feehery Group, counts the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as one of its clients. Shortly after our story broke, Feehery was hired by another public relations/lobbying firm, Quinn Gillespie, which is also a client of the Chamber. Moreover, Fox News’ parent company is an active member of the Chamber, and hate-talker Glenn Beck met with the Chamber’s second in command earlier this year to plot the 2010 election. While Fox hosts and Beck have endlessly defended the Chamber’s secret money, there has been no disclosure of the network’s financial ties to Chamber lobbyists.

Congressional investigators plan to examine how the FBI determined that one scientist was responsible for the deadly 2001 anthrax attacks
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2010/09/investigat...
Wall Street Journal (2010) - The Anthrax Attacks Remain Unsolved
The FBI disproved its main theory about how the spores were weaponized.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274...
Cheney and his staff were given doses of the anti-anthrax Cipro right after the 9/11 attacks
"On the night of the Sept. 11 attacks, the White House Medical Office dispensed Cipro to staff accompanying Vice President Dick Cheney as he was secreted off to the safety of Camp David, and told them it was "a precaution," according to one person directly involved."
"Let me put it this way," Bush said. "I'm confident that when I come to work tomorrow, I'll be safe."
