Michelle Obama "Let the good times roll"

Tonight I received this letter from Obama stating he is bringing home the troops this December. That is very nice that he's bringing home the troops for the holidays and they will all be jobless. This will tip off the "2011 Great Depression". Obama you have no jobs for these brave soldiers. At that point more and more soup kitchens will open, more people living in tents, more foreclosures. When you go to the polls in March think. Obama gave us this depression and the homeless.

How can he say we are moving in a position of strength when 45% of America are starving and homeless. According to Obama's wife Michelle partying every 3 days and eating $150 a pound Kobe steak shouting and toasting "Let the Good Times Roll"

	Good evening, I'm writing to tell you that all US troops will return home from Iraq by the end of December. After nearly nine years, the American war in Iraq will end. Our servicemen and women will be with their families for the holidays. The war in Iraq came with tremendous cost. More than a million Americans served in Iraq, and nearly 4,500 gave their lives in service to the rest of us. Today, as always, we honor these patriots. When I came into office, I pledged to bring the war in Iraq to a responsible end. As Commander in Chief, I ended our combat mission last year and pledged to keep our commitment to remove all our troops by the end of 2011. To date, we’ve removed more than 100,000 troops from Iraq. This is a significant moment in our history. For more information, including video, please visit WhiteHouse.gov/BringingTroopsHome. The end of the war in Iraq reflects a larger trend. The wars of the past decade are drawing to a close. As we have removed troops from Iraq, we have refocused our fight against al Qaeda and secured major victories in taking out its leadership–including Osama bin Laden. And we’ve begun a transition in Afghanistan. On the first day of my Administration, roughly 180,000 troops were deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. By the end of this year that number will be cut in half, and we’ll continue to draw it down. As we welcome home our newest veterans, we’ll enlist their talents in meeting our greatest challenges as a nation—restoring our economic strength at home. Because after a decade of war, the nation that we need to build is our own. Today the United States moves forward, from a position of strength. Thank you, President Barack Obama

Occupy Phila. protestors hit the streets

Wednesday, October 12, 2011

  By DAVID HENRY

CENTER CITY - October 12, 2011 (WPVI) -- The Occupy Philadelphia campout continued Wednesday in the area surrounding City Hall.

On Wednesday afternoon, the protestors marched from their camp site at Dilworth Plaza, taking to the streets in Center City.
They marched from City Hall to the Wells Fargo Bank headquarters on South Broad Street. The marchers tied up traffic and turned heads.
Action United claims Wells Fargo and other banks ripped off the school district when it bailed out of shaky investments.

"We want the money back. We want the money back to the school where they stole it from," said Carolyn Banks of Action United.

It's just one of the Occupy movement's many grievances. They attracted a lot of attention as they marched and chanted, and not all of it negative.
"I think they're really been sold a raw deal. I know a lot of my kids and their friends say work is hard to come by, and they're really having a hard time of it. So, it's good that they're becoming vocal," said Beth Cross of Elkins Park, Pa.
Others praised both the police and the protesters for maintaining order. Demonstrations in other cities have turned violent with mass arrests, but not here.
The biggest threat to Occupy Philadelphia right now is the weather. As rain and cooler temperatures move in, will they maintain their resolve?
"I will probably be in and out, especially as it gets colder. I don't know if I can deal with the cold. Maybe around November or December I'll sleep at home and come here during the day," said John Wong-Shing of Fairmount.
The movement still faces the question of direction. They are angry at the banks and what they call corporate greed.
But, will they coalesce into a political force to be reckoned with?
"We have enough people on both sides of a lot of issues, both conservatives as well as liberals. It would take a lot of difficulty to form a political party here," said Chase Doyle of Fishtown.

No one knows where it's headed, but the people out here are convinced they're at the forefront of something big.
