2010: The Rise of Republican Women

[NYcarbineer]

Meg Whitman spent 80 million dollars to win a primary, and Frank thinks she's outside the GOP country club crowd.

 

[boedicca]

Just because she's a billionaire (which she earned), doesn't mean she's a country club member.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Meg Whitman spent 80 million dollars to win a primary, and Frank thinks she's outside the GOP country club crowd.

And Carb thinks...oh, wait a minute, let me stop right there, that didn't make a lick of sense and no one would believe he did any way

 

[NYcarbineer]

She has more executive experience than Obama and Biden combined when they ran for office.

BTW, Obama got elected and the Dow plunged

Where is Biden anyway? Have they put out a BOLO for him?

Sure she has more experience:

The day she was dumped, the company's stock price rose 7 percent.

They paid her 21 million just so she would leave.

She cut 18,000 workers and moved more jobs overseas.

Yea, this is the record the GOP WANTS to run on. Jobs jobs jobs.

Is this happening or is it the hash?

The economy started to tank the day Dems took over Congress and its been downhill ever since even after an Emergency $850 BILLION that was supposed to keep unemployment under 8%

That's the track record that's going to send many Democrats to the rail in November

Reid can talk about fluorine all he wants

Are you sticking with your 100 seat gain for the GOP prediction?

 

[Claudette]

It's more the rise of Business women. It's going to be interesting. Meg Whitman spent 80 million just to beat her Republican challenger....the commercials were unrelenting and quite nasty. That was a record amount for a primary victory. Wonder how much she will spend for the race itself. At least it will be money going into our economy.

Business Women > Career Politician Men

Just sayin'.

Apparantly to some being a career politician is actually working for a living and being productive.

Of course career politicians have a 2 and a half day work week.

Take numerous vacatioins.

Have perks to die for.

No deadlines to meet.

No board of directors or shareholders to satisfy. They do have constituants, but in most cases those folks are ignored as the party line is all.

No payroll to meet.

Oh yes. One hell of a tough job all at taxpayers expense.

Of course having actually worked for a living I think these career business woman could handle the piddling job of Senator o rCongressman with nary a hair out of place. LOL

They sure couldn't do a worse job than the Clowns who are doin it now. Jeeze.

The economy runs on "momentum". It started "tanking" because disastrous Republican polices finally "kicked in". Democrats happened to be the recipient of those disastrous policies. Come on now, tell the truth.

Add the cost of two wars plus the Republican Drug Give Away Bill, and it's clear exactly what happened.

Odd that the collapse started almost the exact day Nancy picked up the gavel when Dubya had stolen the Presidency from Al Gaia Gore 6 years previously.

The disastrous policy was letting Barney Frank get his way on protecting FNMA and Freddie when Bush tried to reform them.

Funny that Barney had so much power when Republicans held both houses and the presidency.

Even funnier, some Republicans are so stupid, they still don't know that the economic meltdown happened when Wall Street was deregulated and the mortgage market moved from Freddie/Fannie to Wall Street where they gave away mortgages, bundled them, sold them overseas as securities, insured them, then collected the insurance money when they failed. This is why no economist is talking about Freddie/Fannie, but rather Wall Street. But once a Republican gets something planted in that tiny mind, it's there forever.

The same people believe that Saddam was connected to 9/11 and Iraq is now a "democracy".

Must be difficult having your delusions destroyed one by one.

Gerrymandering will keep the gains under 100 seats in 2010, more like 40-50.

After Palin's mid term in 2014, Congress will be 400 R and 35 D

"This economic downturn, quite simply, is the fault of President Bush.

It wasn't his tax cut, as the Democrats claim. The tax cut has not had enough time to have any positive or negative effects it will have.

What caused this economic downturn goes back to when George W. Bush was merely President-elect, waiting to take office, and continued on through his first six months in office.

Repeatedly, President-elect, and then President, Bush talked about how the economy was in trouble. Arriving in office following the longest continuous economic upturn in generations, President Bush seized on a stock market that had faltered some in the uncertainty following the 2000 Presidential election.

The "bad" economy, he talked about. Again and again. The "bad" economy.

You know what happened as a result? I can tell you from my personal experience, the CFO of the corporation I was working for called a meeting and said, "The President keeps talking about the economy being 'bad.' Now, things don't seem bad, but let's just hold off on any new hires until we see how this pans out. And, let's hold off on all non-vital purchases, just for the time being."

And you can see right there how simply the words of President George W. Bush started slamming the breaks of the economy.

This, of course, all snowballed."

March 20, 2001​

"President Bush said the shaky economy proves the need for his tax cut. The Democrats say it's all his fault. The market would still be strong if he hadn't been so negative in his public comments.

On energy, the opposite debate is raging. Reacting to California blackouts, Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham warned the entire nation faces an energy crisis that could change people's lives. Democrats counter that he and Bush are just trying to scare Congress into supporting new drilling up in the Alaskan wilderness. So tonight, two fronts: Is Bush talking down the economy? Is he talking up the energy crisis?"

You're not much of a Historian, are you, Frankie??!!!

Bush became President in 2001, the economy was strong until the start of 2007 when the Dems took Congress.

6 years it was Bush and R Congress = good economy

Dems take Congress =economy tanks

 

[Mr. Peepers]

Yes and how hopeful to see highly successful "business minded" people coming into power. *JOBS* *Economy*

Er... because "business-minded" people did SO GREAT by this country for the previous 8 years? Um... Let's take a look at *jobs* (there are none) and the *economy* (snicker). Yeah, those "business-minded" people are a slam effing dunk, huh. Moron.

I know you're not too bright, but R's never had a Super majority, they needed to work with Dem. Unfortunately Dems wanted to have us lose Iraq to the Insurgents and wanted to cripple the economy so they'd have an issue to run against Republicans.

Deregulated? LOL

Yes, we should never allow Wall Street to sell anything, even if insured.

Yeah the GSE are doing a bang up job on the US housing market now that they have 100% of the business.

"The world's largest economy sank into a recession in March, ending 10 years of growth that was the longest expansion on record in the United Stateshttp://money.cnn.com/2001/11/26/economy/recession/, a group of economists that dates U.S. business cycles said Monday.

It ruled that the long expansion ended in March and the nation's tenth recession since the end of World War II began at the same time. The declaration means the longest expansion lasted exactly 10 years. The previous record for uninterrupted economic growth was set in the 1960s, a period of eight years and 10 months lasting from February 1961 to December 1969."

Obama's been a big improvement. LOL

The economy was doing fine until the Dems took Congress

Yeah....she's a regular "outsider", like The DICK; Cheney.

Yeah....I'm sure she's workin' two jobs.
