#10  The American Dream is for the guv'ment to get out of the way and let me dream and work and enjoy the fruits of "my" labor and not have the sucks steal/tax and then spread/share the fruits of my labor with the lazy azz folk. I don't want a guv'ment handout - I want to work - that's my American dream. This is the most un-American president in our history - he doesn't know our dreams.

#8  Never mind where he was born, I don't think that Obama's idea of the American Dream is anything like mine.

The socialist dream is everybody living off of everybody else. Somehow.

#7  The faster this Marxist is out of office, along with his cronies, the better.

#6  This from a guy that lives in his own pipe dream. Little punk ass child, playing with countries like they are toys.

Soros is his daddy.

#5  Hold on a second there, Mr. President. Didn't you promise in February 2009 to "slash" the deficit by half by the end of your first term, or down to $533B by the end of 2013? Were those deficit reductions going to kill the American dream? And didn't you promise that you were going to use the money freed up by troop reductions in Iraq to reduce the deficit? Where did that money go?

#4  His 'American Dream' is the nightmare which was (and in some cases still is) the Socialist system as practiced in Stalin's Soviet Union, Castro's Cuba, Pol-Pot's Cambodia, and the original Mao's China. To each according to his needs, from each according to his ability success.

Even China figured out that it doesn't work and went to a more capitalistic economy.

Rather than 'Atlas Shrugged' think 'Atlas Starved'. One is voluntary - the other forced.

#2  The American Dream(tm) is predicated upon hard work not redistribution to those who don't. Steal long enough and those who used to work hard see no reason to continue while you reward your factions for putting you in power with the fruits of their labor and skill.

#1  A$$hole. The American dream is comatose and on life support because of pols like you who don't understand that individual economic activity is the driver of the dream.

The dream is not one where everyone sits on their fat a$$ and is handed stuff by the nanny state.
Kill the debt & deficit and the dream will be reborn.
