#1 Nearly three-quarters -- including most Democrats -- said they'd like Obama to name some Republicans in his Cabinet, as the Democrat has said he would do.

For some reason -- can't put my finger on it -- Republicans like John Bolton, Donald Rumsfeld or Dick Cheney wouldn't be their first picks for cabinet positions.

#5 Obama has called for about $175 billion in new stimulus spending, including for public works projects

Joe the Plumber translation: Tens, possibly hundreds of thousands of political patronage jobs at the national level using the Chicago machine model.

#8 or more likely, the AP, in the spirit of modern journalism, just made the whole thing up to represent what they thought people should be thinking. Anyone who believes anything they read in the press anymore is a fool.

#10 I'm not an old guy, but I'm old enough to know that the middle class will never get out from under the tax load that we carry. The rich class is just too slippery and they have too many resources to keep from paying many taxes no matter what the law says. You can't tax the rich, they'll weasel out of it, you cant tax the poor, they got no money, so that leaves the good ol' middle class.

#11 -No new government programs such as that stupidly expensive indentured servitude plan.
-No more bailouts. Period.
-Audit of the current bailout money.
-Drill, gotta set up a program to train wildcatters ok they will be working.
-Trim the pork.

Do that to pay off this crazy large debt and I'll high-five personally.
