Obscene and disgraceful? Look in the mirror, Newt. Listen to Castro!
Stuart Stevens is just mad that his boy lost. Republicans are blocking the budget debate for pure spite. If we have to take a 22 week pay cut, why shouldn't Congress have to also???
People say there is a RACE problem. People say this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY and ONLY into White countries.
People say the only solution to the RACE problem is if ALL and ONLY White countries "assimilate," i.e., intermarry, with all those non-Whites.
But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against White people, Anti-Whites agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-White.
The bummer was the 1 who created the sequester he can solve it himself if he wanted to all he wants is to bash Republicans with lies & distortions. The man is unable to speak the truth. The vast majority of Americans are willing idiots willfully ignorant & unable to understand what is happening to them.
ITs only 5% of our budget!!!!
WHO CARES
Now if they cut the war budget it would work. I mean we ended the war in Iraq right? Oh wait, we didn't.
I cant believe you are a real person. You know that we are all Africans. All Homo Sapiens came from the African continent and when they entered europe 40000 years ago guess what color they were. I dont know why Im bothering really. But dumbasses like you need a realty check. I am a Brit and have Celtic,Anglo Saxon and Norwegian Viking background because I have had my DNA examined. But they also found Jewish and markers from Esat Africa going back 65,000 years. You have African blood get over .
If the sequester is allowed to go through, we will all die. It's George Bush'a fault!
~~~^^President Obama please stand firm.Don't cut any deals that may hurt the last vestiges of democracy & the middle class. PROTECT Social Security & Medicare. If Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, John Boehner, Eric Cantor & the rest of the GOP won't work with you before the SEQUESTER, they will go down in history as Un-American, TREASONOUS ENEMIES OF THE COMMONS. …………………………….. America and every country that has ever been corrupted by FASCISTS understands what is at stake.
According to Macroeconomics e19, "discretionary fiscal policy (2001-2009) increasingly relied on tax breaks rather than on changes in spending as its main tool." As Obama said in the 2nd Presidential debate, we need to end tax loopholes to wealthy corporations. It's the private sector that is taking a disproportionate share of the economy in tax breaks and outdated subsidies to oil companies, etc. Macro economists say cutting spending would raise unemployment and cause a deeper recession.
Such drivel. You mean Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich who led Republican politics to shut down the government in the Clinton Administration.
If loosing 2% is going to shut down everything the government does, then what is the government doing with the 98% of our tax money? Put another way, if everything is financed by 2%, then they should be able to drop our taxes by 98% and let the 2% continue to finance the government. Obama's threats that everything is going to shut down are meaningless. We'll wake up on 3/1 and the sky will still be up there. It won't fall down.
Fuck. You. Republicans.
That is all.
lets cut the military budget and spend it on education and infrastructure and for food for the needy
Japan has colonised large parts of Asia including over 3000 islands.
But no one says Japan must atone by 'assimilating' with non-Japanese.
You see, ONLY anti-Whites use this against White countries as a justification for genocide of White people.
So instead of cutting spending in one area and start shaving off the 16 trillion dollar debt that is going to destroy our nation, you rather SPEND it on an education system that already gets more money per student than 99% of the world, SPEND it on infrastructure when the public pisses and shits on the public transit systems they already have, and feed the needy in a country where NOBODY FUCKING STARVES TO DEATH. You would make a great liberal messiah in DC.
Personal Injury Lawyer Issaquah : Nice talk
so taking money by force that someone earns and giving it to someone else is democratic?? How so? The govt. is not a charity , if you want charity go to a church or private charity. Get rid of social security and medicare , let the people manage their own money , why do I need the govt. to manage my retirement or medical savings? The govt. is totally inept (that means not competent) so why do I want them in the money mgt. business? Stop looking for someone else to take care of you!
This betrays an astonishing elitism: that the federal government is perfect and requires no reform. That is why they have no plan to make our government leaner and more efficient. The President had 18 months to develop reforms to improve the government, but instead he announced furloughs of federal workers as a political cudgel. Yet, his golf weekend at the yacht club with Tiger Woods cost taxpayers over a million dollars—enough money to save 341 federal workers from furlough. Sen Sessions
And Democrats to Both parties SUCK !!!!!
TheRatmaster said, "lets cut the military budget and spend it on education and infrastructure and for food for the needy "
Yea, you're right. We don't need the military. No one would even think of attacking the U.S.
Have you woke up yet?
Democrats are typically very uneducated in the field of national economics. You don't understand how a market works, do you?
What an ignorant and moronic statement.
In all income categories except the 95th percentile from 1948-2005 income growth rates under Democratic presidents exceeded income growth rates under Republican ones.
That's a fuckin' fact.
Then again, brain-dead fuckstick Republicans – many who believe Earth is 6000 years old – have ZERO credibility about ANYTHING because they have no concept of facts. By definition.
Oh, because someone is Christian means that they think the Earth is six thousand years old? You feel compelled to make this a social issue, don't you? How is income growth rate from 1945 relevant today? Please, tell me. First, I'll tell you why we had better income rates back then: Our economy was not regulated. We did not have price controls until the Nixon administration, which FAILED. Wage control laws don't increase people's purchasing power. They only increase wage on paper.
