Since the White House has an easy opt-out clause for We The People petitions that refer directly to the actions of certain agencies, they can satisfy their requirement to respond by essentially saying “No comment.” Check out the We The People Terms of Participation and you’ll see it. The administration has exercised this clause on a few occasions, as seen in the petition responses titled “Why we can’t comment on…” on the website.

Well, the first part ill agree with, lol. But As for the phone situation, i can see that, but only if you dip out of your contract early. If you stay in your contract, the company is making hand over fist on you… Verizon for example is making so much off you after the first couple months, it really doesn’t matter what they give you the phone for. Where they lose money is the roaming charges, and people that disgustingly abuse data, (i may or may not qualify for this category). At any rate, after contract is up, i feel that we should be able to actually “OWN” our phones, and do what we please with them.

If you’re Republican before the age of 30 you have no heart. If you’re Democrat after 30 you have no brain. J/k to each his own. But I think if you buy a subsidised phone you should have to stick with that carrier. They don’t offer you a phone at less than half price to take it and run. (If I’m correctly understanding the situation)

Apparently the mods did not like my last comment…

“System of social organization in which private property and the distribution of income are subject to social control; also, the political movements aimed at putting that system into practice.”
(merriam-webster)

You, sir, are a typical ignorant liberal, whom does not know the definition of Socialism… If you can not see that the sentence describes what Obama is doing, then you are blindly following… Let me guess, Mom and Dad, (or maybe Dad and Dad) raised you to be a democrat? Taught you how to hate everyone that opposes you and your beliefs?

War-mongering??? Who was the president to put MORE troops over seas, and now is hording weapons here at home for God knows what reason!? (give you a hint, his name starts with an “O”).

And racist? Really? LOL, Okay bud, what ever you say… Just because the first black president happens to suck a**, does not make everyone who opposes him racist. Although, I am not very fond of you, are you black by chance?

trust me, i know plenty about the “issues involved”. Get educated yourself, then come back to the table….

To be fair, you just did the exact same thing you told him not to do.

Also the last few canidates/presidents from both parties have sucked.

Hey, let me give you a tip. Prices go up. It’s called inflation. Remember when a new car cost $1500? how many republicans and democrats have sat in the big seat since then? It has nothing to do with Obama. And btw, he has spent far less money in 4 years than Bush did in 2. Not to mention that Obama is on his way to getting us back to solvency with last month’s budget surplus(as long as the republicans will stop being little babies in congress).
