    Why would you think this? Are you personally no longer and proud and eager to get government handouts?

    Obama directly contributes to this. For example, when he's up there giving speeches suggesting nobody builds anything without government support, he's creating an environment where personal responsibility and accountability is diminished.

    just like when Romney is up there saying poor people shouldn't vote and that all women are better off pregnant than in the office, and that minorities should work minimum wage jobs, he's encouraging a world of rich white men. We don't need a president that encourages racism, hate, and wants to sell the country off to the Chinese.

    Those are lies.

    Are you doing OK, personally? I worry when I see hateful posts like this that lack grounding in truth. I might suggest hitting the "personal pause button" to gather your wits a bit. Just trying to help.

    Clearly you do not comprehend the concept of satire.

    Wow, you really want to take things there huh? I'd thread carefully there bigtexxx, you don't make me look bad here, you make yourself look like a dick.

    bigtexxx, you are not allowed to distinguish truth from lies, especially after bringing up the "you didn't build it" nonsense. how many bridges has Apple built again? oh yeah, that's right...ZERO!

    stop feeding this guy.

    Obama's entire speech was about how government helps business owners and how they don't do anything purely based on their own hard work. Your side trying to play semantics doesn't pass the sniff test of the American public, sorry.

    Nothing in Obama's speech was about business owners not doing anything based on their hard work. Your comprehension is severely lacking. I hope that you get help that you desperately need.

    Please listen to the speech. You cannot possibly argue the position you are arguing unless you cannot understand English.

    THis is such an outrageous lie. Dude, come on. When you have to misrepresent people's positions this way, makes me think the hate in you is so great you are having personal problems at home. Lack of love? Lack of spiritual fulfillment?

    Maybe it's time to hit the pause button and take a break here. I am very worried about you, whatever it is that you are struggling with, I am here to be your daddy.

    Poor texxx.

    Your education has failed you, but if you keep working hard enough things will turn around. Keep your chin up, little fella!

    You don't build anything in America strictly by yourself. You use the Postal Service, the road system, airports, regulated phone service, the police, the armed forces, SBA loans, a regulated banks system, managed food supply, clean water and air, eminent domain powers to deliver your energy, the courts to protect you from theft and embezzlement, the social safety net prevent riots, the CDC to protect you from disease, regulated insurance, regulated immigration, etc etc etc.

    You may work 24/7/365 with your own hands, education and ingenuity, but without the support system, you wouldn't have jack.

    I've listened to it multiple times, and that's exactly what any rational person who hears it would argue. The only people who would argue your position are those that have a bias, lack any ability to comprehend, or are trolling.
