... is the utterly contemptible, worthless, selfish congress. The President can not solve all of these issues without a Congress that wants something other than to get re-elected and hide from labels of socialism and play the "I'm more right wing than you" game.
If more members of congress actually cared about something other than lining their own pockets - maybe something positive would get done.
Please explain to me how phony voter REGISTRATIONS - what ACORN has generally been accused of and phony ACTUAL VOTES are the same thing please?
But hey - Diebold who actually manufactures VOTING machines had nothing to do with throwing the 04 election to Bush right?
You people are pants-wetting professional victims.
Where do they grow these jackasses? These people will say or do anything. Acorn stole the election... One of these days my head is going to explode.
And of course this is yet another so called politician taking his cues from Glenn Beck. What a genius. Maybe Glenn Beck can become the next RNC chairman.
... Ikea is great if you accept it for what it is... and if you stick to the better lines, the furniture lasts and takes a beating without costing a fortune. My wife and I furnished most of our first house there and we still have most of the furniture (which does not have any screws poking out or whatever).
And shopping there is a breeze - I'm not sure what you are moaning about.
I agree that some are not fond of outsourcing for racial reasons...
But in the current economic climate, if there are not enough jobs for the people who live in the US and pay taxes here, then jobs should not be sent offshore. It's not a hard concept to follow... What is the point of living in a particular country if one can not be the beneficiary of what that country has to offer? If people from other countries want American jobs - they should come and live here and contribute to our economy with their earnings. Outsourcing is a race to the bottom and always has been... Indian tech workers make almost as much as their US counterparts at this point - so soon it will be Chinese workers and so on.
It used to be that people emigrated here for the great jobs and opportunity... now you just have to wait for some greedy company to set up shop in your 3rd world hell hole to pay you $4 dollars an hour to develop java programs.
... Insult my intelligence and make me want to dump my subscription.
The girl in the ad does not look like an eight year old. My wife still looks like she's in her teens and she's in her 30's... does that make me a pedophile because I'm attracted to her?
The actual age is what matters... not what age YOU think she looks. The actress in question is an adult - case closed.
She just proved my point RE. Idiocracy... Next she'll be telling us to use Brawndo... It's got what plants crave.
Just watch the movie Idiocracy... That's where we're headed... and fast.
That movie is almost a documentary about the Bush administration and Fox News.
HILARIOUS! Priceless entertainment.
If you really believe the BS you are spouting - then you really need to check into a facility somewhere.
Otherwise you must be kidding.
HOHOHOHOHOHOHHOHOH.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA....
I can't breathe!
Must not laugh at total moron who almost became vice president...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....
And??? 49% is still a majority... and BTW... What are your ideas for fixing health care? I have heard nothing from the right wing / republicans other than the same old "free market" BS we have been hearing since Ronnie Raygunz. The same crap that got us to where we are now. Come up with a new idea, then you can rant and rave all you want.
Well... The plan to privatize social security was not supported by 71% of the public as the plan to reform the crumbling health care "system" is.
The people ranting and raving at these meetings are not reflective of the majority of public opinion... get it? That's not so hard to understand is it?
And BTW... If I remember correctly, protesters and non-bush supporters were forcibly removed from Bush's Potemkin "town-halls". I don't see that happening to these twits.
????? I totally understand if you have issues with Obama's policies - I'm not totally thrilled with him either - but this Birther crap HAS to be called out for the lunacy and racist BS it really is. If Obama was white, nobody would be questioning his legitimacy as president by claiming he was born in Denmark or something.
The man is president, he's not going to be kicked out of office because a few truly crazy people think he's from Kenya.
The STUPID IT HURTS!!!!!!!! MAKE IT STOP!!!!!! PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THESE PEOPLE STFU!!!!!!!
Yes... I forgot about that - or has a funny sounding name - Like Oh Really Taints.
Because after all - Obama is a scary "other" with brown skin. And if we don't invalidate his presidency - the brown people will take over the country and Make us all into Socialist cogs.
Pal - my in laws are from the UK and my wife (a "naturalized" citizen of the US) was born there and I have never heard any of them use the goofy over the top slang you are using... did you learn to speak by watching Clockwork Orange over and over as a baby?
And it's a not a silly question since his birth certificate is irrelevant any way. He is a citizen and is eligible to be president. Why should he produce his birth certificate because a bunch of morons are asking for it. There is no law that says he has to. Again - the burden of proof is on the accuser in this country, not the accused.
Produce real proof Obama is not really a natural born citizen or STFU.
