President Obama tries to buy seniors' votes with a $250.00 'stimulus' (welfare) check of 'borrowed' money..

How pathetic! The Obama administration wants to borrow money and give seniors $250.00 to pay lip service after seniors are starting to figure out the Obama lies about rationing health care, medicaid cuts and 'death panels.'

For liberals with learning disabilities (all of them) 'death panels' is code phrase for 'rationing' health care to old people who are going to, 'die soon anyway.'

To a liberal, an Obama advisor making statements on video about rationing health care and seniors dying in addition to an 'end of life' counseling plan in the health care bill, isn't convincing enough. If Obama himself just came out and said it, it still wouldn't be enough, it's just how irrational these people are...

Are seniors going to fall for the Obama con once again? Seniors tend to be wise, but very naive in their old age. It's disgraceful that democrats would even use seniors and claim to represent them when they really put criminals, illegal aliens and welfare bums far ahead of seniors. That's a fact NO ONE can dispute.

How about this Mr. Obama, instead of borrowing billions from the Chinese, printing money and further destroying our dollar, why don't you stop funding the National Endowmnent of the Arts, increasing welfare payments and food stamps, ACORN, the unions, and other radical organizations like LaRaza, STORM and The Apollo Alliance?

Then, get rid of your Czars since they are raping the taxpayer by paying the communist cazr members salaries for doing nothing other than destroying this country. Give that money to the seniors and STOP SPENDING!

Last Friday we received letters from Social Security informing us that as seniors, my wife and I were going to receive a stimulus payment of $250 each.

We've suffered like everyone else in the last year, but we're not destitute.

When George W. Bush gave out tax gifts, we never received one because they at least excluded the group which the current administration refers to as "rich" and intends to tax the daylights out of to give more to "the lesser advantaged."

Bush didn't try to buy seniors' votes, but it looks like Barack Obama is.

What poor judgment.

We have already given ours to charity, 80 percent to deserving youth groups.

If one hasn't read Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged," it is suggested reading.
