I wouldn't say that turning around a failing economy and entering America into 7 years of widespread prosperity was a failure. How we came to that prosperity is a different beast altogether and has been mounting for the better part of the last half-century.

How exactly are you measuring prosperity?

Not everyone reacts to responsibility in the same way. Oh and nice name-calling. Did I strike a nerve? I see the people who "got" my statement knew exactly what I was talking about.

I agree, morons tend to think alike.

Iron Archer said:
...and you infer that I have lack of knowledge how?

the moronic words coming out of your mouth might have something to do with it.
Obama is not a socialist. I can't believe we are still throwing that buzz word around. I mean, I understand it's all the ammunition you guys can seem to find lately, but it's just not true. trying times call for trying measures, just because we bought some banks and a car company doesn't mean we're heading down the evolutionary path of some kind of new Marxism.

accusations like that make you sound like a moron. plain as day.

I never called her the front runner. never for a moment have I considered her such. no one is trying to "trick" people into thinking that. it's just the simple fact that she's a huge ass target who's very easy to kick around.
and the GOP has yet to find someone worth of being the front runner who might be able to better absorb the flak.

oh, and happy belated 4th of July cocksuckers.

Yeah? Ok brilliant boy, how many liberal young people were there in the sixties and how many of that same age group in percentage is still liberal? Its not an opinion that people are more liberal when they are younger.

And I love how you explain how he isn't socialist, lol. It doesn't scream you have no idea what you are talking about at all. Yeah sure. :lol:

add cap/trade to that, then add socialized medicine. if cap/trade and medicine goes through, that will put us just around %50 GDP nationalized and put our debt well over 20 trillion and probably closing in on 30.

so when exactly do you consider him a socialist or fascist or whatever? how many industries would have to be nationalized?

lol, you guys have no idea what socialism is. you just love the buzz words because it's the only ammunition you've got.

here is Billy Wharton, editor of The Socialist magazine:

The funny thing is, of course, that socialists know that Barack Obama is not one of us. Not only is he not a socialist, he may in fact not even be a liberal. Socialists understand him more as a hedge-fund Democrat -- one of a generation of neoliberal politicians firmly committed to free-market policies.
The first clear indication that Obama is not, in fact, a socialist, is the way his administration is avoiding structural changes to the financial system. Nationalization is simply not in the playbook of Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and his team. They favor costly, temporary measures that can easily be dismantled should the economy stabilize. Socialists support nationalization and see it as a means of creating a banking system that acts like a highly regulated public utility. The banks would then cease to be sinkholes for public funds or financial versions of casinos and would become essential to reenergizing productive sectors of the economy.
The same holds true for health care. A national health insurance system as embodied in the single-payer health plan reintroduced in legislation this year by Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.), makes perfect sense to us. That bill would provide comprehensive coverage, offer a full range of choice of doctors and services and eliminate the primary cause of personal bankruptcy -- health-care bills. Obama's plan would do the opposite. By mandating that every person be insured, ObamaCare would give private health insurance companies license to systematically underinsure policyholders while cashing in on the moral currency of universal coverage. If Obama is a socialist, then on health care, he's doing a fairly good job of concealing it.
Issues of war and peace further weaken the commander in chief's socialist credentials. Obama announced that all U.S. combat brigades will be removed from Iraq by August 2010, but he still intends to leave as many as 50,000 troops in Iraq and wishes to expand the war in Afghanistan and Pakistan. A socialist foreign policy would call for the immediate removal of all troops. It would seek to follow the proposal made recently by an Afghan parliamentarian, which called for the United States to send 30,000 scholars or engineers instead of more fighting forces.

need more?

That guy that wrote that has no idea what "free-market policies" are. I really didn't get past the first paragraph though as it was compete bull****.

Good job ignoring my question btw.

Ok read the entire thing. It was just fail. Yeah universal healthcare is supporting the free market. Sure it is, clueless mother****er.

Note that universal may not mean no cost or mandatory. Here it's still paid and the private sector even if more expensive is usually preferred by the ones that can afford it

Stop Arguing. Forget about the Avon lady, because none of you really care. You also have to stop fighting about politicians and what their agendas are, because no matter how often you argue those agendas will never include you. And none of you are liberals or conservative. You're all liberal and conservative (some might use the word moderate). People are not who they register as, they just pick column A or B just like you. Because some of us like our peanut butter in our chocolate, and others like our chocolate in our peanut butter. And nothing else on the candy shelf tastes as good.

So be chill.

I don't really know how you measure such things nationally, but around here lots of people were buying extravagant houses and lots of "toys". I realize that much of the prosperity of the last 15 years has been imaginary, but what can you say about that? People act like Clinton was the best 8 years this country ever had, yet people were spending just as much in credit.

This thread is apPALINg.

P.S: Tons of other fakes can be found on google.

very classy. THIS type of thing is likely why she's withdrawing from public office. her daughter being attacked viciously by the press and so on. if you don't see a problem with shoving a minor into the lime light of political sh** throwing you're in trouble.

why not just defeat the other side in the arena of ideas? i am a right leaning independent, meaning i don't vote for just anyone with an R next to their name. you guys are a mob, most of you and its sad to see anyone withdrawl from public office due to attacks having nothing to do with their politics, or the ideas they have put forward. some of you are celebrating the decline of your own morals or a complete lack of them.

Heh, David Letterman really did break open the Palin box after all. That last pic is just...omg.

Then again, it's Palin fault anyway.

Average (inflation-adjusted) household income
Unemployment Percentage On The Subset of Labour-Capable population (ie: Not Children or Retired) {Fixed Grammar}

Are possible ways...

You can't point to people you see and proclaim it to be a success -- we own a house -- and it did not lower in value over October... doesn't mean the housing market crash didn't happen -- just meant it didn't happen *here*. (Smaller city in Canada, 4 bedroom 3 bathroom {1 + 2 1/2's} house)

Earlier today I was checking out runner's world when I came across this interview.

I gotta say, I was really impressed with how Palin came off as, like, not borderline braindead. She sounded intelligent, relatable, still folksy without being hillbilly... if she's trying to re-invent her public image, then the linked interview is a pretty damn good step.

Quoting Smegal "Go AWAY and NEVER come back!"

Yeah, I guess her quitting just proves that she's not the type of person who would sacrifice her family at the altar of politics, like many Democrats have and would. Such a terrible thing to have standards, if you're left-leaning that is.

Sarah Palin abandons Alaskan people.

Why has Sarah Palin abandoned the Alaskan people?

To prepare to run for President.

To cover up some yet undiscovered shenanigans in Alaska

To join Fox news as a "Fair & Balanced" contributor.

To breed an army of Disney character named, Jesus camp trained, doers of right.

To mow down packs of wild wolves from a helicopter with an MG-42.

To become Governor Mark Sanford's new soul mate.

To begin her career as a community organizer.

To devote more time to pal'n around with terrorist.

Who knows, but somebody better start a Hannity suicide watch.

To carpet bomb social networking sites with pure, unflitered Crazy.
