Answer if you can.

How do you feel about:

the oil spill BP handles or government should handle

Wall Street needs new regulation or no new regulation

Obama should be blamed for everything or not

I'm sure others could add to this list.

The wars, stay in or get out - Get out as soon as we finish. Stop **** footing around and let the military do what they do.

the oil spill BP handles or government should handle - I think the Gov and BP should be working together and using every available resource.

Wall Street needs new regulation or no new regulation - Leave Wall Street alone. Regulate the government.

Obama should be blamed for everything or not - No

Obama is a socialist or not - I'm not sure if he's a Socialist or a Marxist. Clearly he is a redistritionist loon.

Plus, your actual question was: "How do you feel about...(a bunch of questions)?"

I feel like they are poorly worded, broad questions that deal in absolutes only.

The wars, stay in or get out - Finish and get out.

the oil spill BP handles or government should handle -

The government and BP handle. The government realizes this is not an engineering problem but a physics problem and puts together a panel who can come up with solutions that work at the depths and pressures of 5k feet. Then BP pays for everything.

Wall Street needs new regulation or no new regulation -

Needs new regulation but investors also need to pull their heads out of their asses and determine if they really belong in the market or not. Most investors spend more time researching picks for fantasy football then they do researching the companies or funds or people they choose to invest their life savings.

Obama should be blamed for everything or not - No more or less then any Pres who came before him or will come after him. Bush's presidency was the most scrutinized ever. Be careful what lights you turn on because eventually you have to stand under them yourself. Hope and change? Not yet.

Obama is a socialist or not - Ever since he made that "its time to redistribute the wealth comment" he will always get that label. The government does not generate any income. Antything they give to some one they have to first take from some one else. You cannot move our nation into prosperity by punishing the people who are the most succesful.

You are right DWD, I'm being a jerk.

I will kind of answer one of them. The BP quetion.

I don't believe that just BP or the government are the answer. It is a collective group of public, private, and government people that need to come together to fix this.

If the government is the most involved, you will just have a bunch of lazy ass people getting paid to walk up and down the beach and pretend to pick up tar balls.

Short answer, most of the clean up will be handled by private business that can make a profit.

The blame game is really pointless. To blame only BP based on the fact that they are a greedy company is silly. If they even thought for a minute that this was likely to happen, they would have a mechanism in place to capture this oil and continue to make a profit.

If it was about the dollar, this would be fixed. It's not really. Oil drilling is mostly grunt work with a few engineers that are probably laughed at by a bunch of know-it-all managers, that are just not intelligent enough. Period. No conspiracy, just incompetence. Not saying that all oil rig workers are dummies at all. I just know that engineers are often scoffed, because of their doom and gloom nature.

Even if the government had better inspections, it wont fix incompetence on the part of the inspectors or the people running the rig.

Money makes the world go round, private business that works for profit is probably a better solution, with some government checks and balances.

Not a complete answer, but kind of brief.
