redblackParticipantrich:
willard is a liar, and if i had my way, tax avoidance in the cayman islands and switzerland would be illegal.
oh, and note the word “potential” in the link. no one called willard a felon.
and show the tax returns, already! or are you guys defending that, too?
kootch:
Put a balanced budget in the Democratic plank… and the guts to follow through!
LOL. you first. getting lectured on fiscal responsibility by republicans is like getting lectured on manners by bobby knight.
and rand paul ryan has been one of the fattest pigs at the trough.
all:
what does any of this have to do with the ACA?

JoBParticipantLOL.. i think we finally hit a nerve..
I think there are republicans on this forum who are actually embarrassed by their own.
My only question is what took so long?
kootch…
why on earth would i ask Obama to step down?
he has offended me with some of the Bush policies that he has followed down the rocky road to ruin…
but why on earth would i ask him to step down when I can ask him to correct his mistakes?
a better question is why would the Republican party ask a seated legislator to step down after he wins his party’s nomination for another term over a comment he made?
Have you really bought the idea that it is all about appearances?
I prefer a little content.
I actually like it that President Obama carefully prepares his speeches, making careful choices of the words that will best convey his meaning… and.. that he uses a teleprompter to make sure he gets it right.
it’s refreshing after the younger Bush’s years of fumbling vague inaccuracy and bombastic rhetoric.
It really is too bad that Romney has chosen to follow in Bush’s footsteps. I sincerely hope for his sake that he is capable of more.

kootchmanMemberYou should be mortified by your own,…. what does it have to do with the ACA… you gotta pay for your treats and biscuits… and so far … we got nothing from Democrats that makes any sense. Just Ostrich Economics… head in the sand.. and some faith that magic beans will grow and grow into the sky where by some miracle Barry and his minions will find a golden goose. When your deficits are larger than your GDP… you have to cut.
But hey… even the Huff n; Puff Post is starting to hedge their bets…

If you prefer content… why are you voting for the newly evolved Messiah? Tell me what “content” he has delivered? Nothing, I don’t care about an outlyer Republican… JOBS and DEFICITS … Americans #1, and #2 concerns… the rest is chatter and distraction… let’s see him run on his record.
I would rather see Obama’s college transcripts… does he have the chops to sit in the big chair? I think not… it’s been on dumbass move after another to pander to a zealot base…. I wish Obama had a least run a lemonade stand… if his lemons, sugar and water cost 23 cent a glass… and he sold them for 15 cents a glass… at least he would know SOMETHING about economics…

redblackParticipantWhen your deficits are larger than your GDP… you have to cut.
no, you don’t. there’s no way to cut 1/3 of the budget. not without defense cuts, anyway. and god forbid we should question the need for no-bid contracts or useless F-22 orders or the wisdom of having hundreds of military bases scattered around the globe.
but people who need food and access to medical care in the land of the free and the home of the brave? leeches!
hey, by the yea, what was the marginal tax rate the last time debt was 100% of GDP?
heh. jobs and deficits, huh? americans are beginning to see who and what caused the loss of the first and the rise of the latter. and they’re not looking at our socialist muslim overlord for blame.
they’re looking at willard and paul and wondering why we should put the two biggest acolytes of voodoo economics in charge. they’d cut taxes and budgets deeper than their messiah – ronald reagan: the one, true messiah – ever dreamed of.

miwsParticipantYou should be mortified by your own…
I’m mortified that otherwise seemingly intelligent people think that the R/R ticket is a good choice.
I still say it’s gotta be that RR thing, ya know “The Great One“.
*Vomits in mouth*
…why are you voting for the newly evolved Messiah?
Why are you voting for a Party full of homophobic misogynists?

kootchmanMemberFirst, phobic implies fear. It’s a catchy phrase, in the popular lexicon, but no basis in fact. Mayhaps some “wishful” thinking that we tremble at the thought of such powerful a minority status.. but we don’t. Now, I have met some pretty petty, mean -spirited democrats in my day… many who are pro traditional marriage with an extra twist of hate, disgust, or any number of additional pejoratives attached… but see.. I don’t care. It’s a side bar, a teeny issue to me as a voter. I am thinking JOBS and DEFICITS… that’s it. I will overlook any social issue this election.. for the aforementioned. OUr morass is too deep to be bothered with this distractions… as I have voiced many times to my Teapublicans… these are not important issues. Not now. we have larger threats that affect us all… our economic house is in chaos. That’s job one,

kootchmanMemberI didn;t say bty cut 1/3 of the budget… I said we have sunk so low.. we have a least a decade of repair to do… I said cut 3 dollars and raise taxes one….. the system is to fragile to cut 1/3 from government.. but the sooner we start … the sooner we recover. I will support raising taxes.. but not another sous until the cuts start. And a good place to start is to not even let the ACA get started… kill it before it grows.

kootchmanMemberContent and Obama? when has that ever happened?
August 23, 2012 at 10:54 pm #762577
dobroParticipantObama by 6.2 pts. Dems hold Senate, gain 20 seats in the House. Teapubs go “Wahhhhhh!!!!!!! He cheated!!!”
August 24, 2012 at 12:30 am #762578
JoBParticipantkootch..
i can see why you wouldn’t recognize Obama’s content..
it doens’t come wrapped in cornbread and isn’t served with a side of grits..

redblackParticipantactually, kootch, you’d have to cut 1/3 of the budget just to balance it. want to pay down the debt? gotta cut more.
the only way out of this is to raise taxes and pay-as-you-go.
yeah, maybe now you say you want to raise a dollar of revenue for every three dollars in cuts, but your teabagging brethren don’t agree. the messiah offered them 10 dollars in cuts for one dollar of revenue and they refused – “no new taxes! too much government!” – so we ended up with that stupid simpson/bowles commission.
