    here's a question -- do we really WANT those manufacturing jobs back? reality check: if ipads were built in america, they'd cost $1,000 apeice. everyone's so quick to criticize China on currency manipulation and labor practices, but nobody wants to give up what we get out of this deal (Angry Birds and Siri).

    A lot of prominent people and newspapers have endorsed President Obama

    But none are as prominent or illustrious as "The Boss"



    RIP Romney / Ryan 2012 hopes

    So when Romney outsources to China he's actually doing it to make life better for us all.
    Sweet.

    The Dems could trot a three legged chicken out there and Bruce would put on a free concert for it.

    People belly ache but the answers lie with the checkbooks. Americans love them some cheap crapola made in China
    The soldiers gave three cheers as they urged their tired horses north across the uneven hills. Some of the mounts, exhausted after a week of almost continual marching, began to lag behind; others, spurred on by their enthusiastic riders, began to edge past the regiment's commander. "Boys, hold your horses," Custer cautioned; "there are plenty of them down there for us all."

    Which is why they should keep voting for the guy that wants to raise the price they pay for gas,electricity and home heating oil,meanwhile those policies drive food prices up.
    But it looks great on paper because it's green and never mind the unintended consequences of making yourself feel good cause your a green guy.

    His Energy secretary has said he wants gas prices to be comparable to those in Europe.
    Obama has said he wants coal burning power plants out of business.

    Energy prices need to necessarily skyrocket.

    Who does that hit the worst?

    Poor and working class.

    Isn't that who he claims to be fighting for? Funny way of showing it.

    If we used import tariffs as they were intended, to keep US citizens working with a living wage, then all those jobs wouldn't be going to China.

    I have no idea what you're talking about, but think you should cite that.

    Energy Secretary Steven Chu on Tuesday walked away from his oft-quoted pre-Cabinet statement that the United States should deliberately raise gasoline prices to discourage consumption.
