Kentucky Sen. and minority leader Mitch McConnell in a news conference one day after the election, stated that the single and sole goal of the GOP over the next two years is: to make Barack Obama a single term president. What an arrogant and obnoxious goal and statement. There agenda before the election was to get votes by promising that there first goals were jobs, the economy and health care reform. It seems their goal is to grab power, not to do things for the people that are in need of jobs and or unemployment pay, health care for those that don't have it, and the people losing their homes. This is the same party that wanted the auto plants and their suppliers to go out of business. We are just coming back from what they did to this country, and now we have them back to do the same things to our country again. What a mess the next two years is going to bring to this country. Talk about partisanship." Carl D. Leow Rogers Cit Member CommentsnormanlakeDoes WAR factor into your narrow view of economic disaster? Posted 59 days ago. normanlakeWhich WAR has been worse for America? Which WAR cost most American lives? Which WAR was initiated by the Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld gang? Of course, both, and both. Posted 59 days ago. normanlakeDense understanding on the part of "free"man...the economy of the last 30 years, which you purport to understand have been disastrous for the middle class! If YOU do not understand, and I tell you where to find information, the onus is on YOU. Responding to YOUR narrow view on the issue is like answering the leading question "have you stopped beating your wife?" Posted 59 days ago. FreemanThe economic crash of 2007/8 has root causes in both houses, right and left. Sound money at the federal level, the ease of credit requirements in the private sector and the foolish risks of the financial sector caused the problems we face now. Our friend did not read the article I cited, he just saw a "dis" on Clinton in the title and left it at that. Some people don't want to understand, they just want to convince or sway others to their point of view. I make statements to "germinate" conversation and discussion. Normy just whips out retread talking points and thinks he's the new Ed Schulz. Posted 59 days ago. Freemannormy just cannot support his positions. There, simply, is no scenario in which the U.S. comes out of this debt debacle without mucho pain. Not while the federal government seems to be, almost intentionally, trying to hamper a grass roots recovery. Posted 59 days ago. rshill7Thanks Freeman. I sometimes grow weary of levels of stupidity that reach the stratosphere. Don't be such a stranger. Posted 59 days ago. FreemanMaybe Jaxspp will volunteer to teach you about sources normanlake. Posted 59 days ago. FreemanDoes "credibility" lend itself to your liberal friend's disregard for the law requiring a budget? Posted 59 days ago. FreemanLet's see, "right wing hack economists". OK, read the article and point out what you think is erroneous and tell my why. I'd like that "information". Posted 59 days ago. Freeman"...Information, an eleven letter, four syllable word beyond your grasp..." Apparently "information" is a bit beyond your "grasp" since you won't provide any. Posted 59 days ago. FreemanCredibility must mean "read up on it", "too many to mention", etc. Posted 59 days ago. FreemanOf course if you can't give us one piece of work that makes your point then I guess we'll just have to assume you really haven't "read up on it". Posted 59 days ago. FreemanWho said Bush was a conservative? Your views are your views, don't care. But you referenced "too many to mention", list ONE!! I am not your teacher, not trying to teach you anything. You offered a point of view and I disagree. I cited a good piece of work that illustrates where I am coming from and you have cited nothing. Cite something that makes sense and I'll read it and if I don't agree with it I'll give you the courtesy of telling you why. That's how big people discuss things normanlake. Posted 59 days ago. normanlakeYou are NOT my teacher. I have been taught to think for myself, pretender. I need not answer to you. The truth is beyond your grasp, or you would see through the tired rhetoric you spew. Information, an eleven letter, four syllable word beyond your grasp. Posted 59 days ago. normanlakeMy viewpoint is out here for you to see. You have no credibility. Posted 59 days ago. normanlakeAND, "free"man, not one word from you pathetic neocons about the liar Bush and his TWO UNfunded WARS! The Iraq WAR and the foray into Afghanistan has cost America far more than the disastrous trickle down economic theory, another well documented situation. The numbers are staggering, as well as the death toll of American troops, the wounded American troops, the mentally scarred American troops, as well as untold thousands of non~combatant Iraqis. Do not attempt to feed me any baloney about Conservatism, I know the results of blind adherence to ideology. Posted 59 days ago. Freeman"read up on it", "find it yourself", "to many to mention". Very convicing case you've outlined normanlake. Posted 59 days ago. FreemanTOO many to mention, find it your "free"self, I did. The truth will set YOU 'free'. THERE IT IS!!!!! You guys are all alike. CITE SOME WORK THAT YOU RELY ON OR STOP BAD MOUTHING THOSE WHO DO!! Posted 59 days ago. Post a Comment |
