A guy who's never even imagined what a treadmill or a responsible diet looked like, talking about lazy people.
What are you blathering about? Just because he doesn't look like a bodybuilder doesn't mean he's been lazy his entire life.

Not only are you a Leftist Liberal...but you are a fraud.
Wow, you are an absolute marvel to me, PC. You are able to pick out select phrases while completely avoiding even TRYING to understand the argument. Seriously, this must be some kind of high level autism we've never heard of.
When you get to actually addressing the point I made, get back to me.

1. "...to pick out select phrases..."
They were your phrases....you picked them, not I.
"...high level autism...."
2. Paint chips? High level autism?
Did you notice how I eviscerated your post without resorting to that level?
Another difference between Liberal and Conservative.

You did nothing of the sort. You picked out phrases without actually comprehending the argument. I guess there were just too many words for you.
Okay, Corkette, I will put it is a simple ONE SENTENCE format.
When you take away good paying jobs, you make people more dependent on government, and therefore, enable liberalism.
Care to debate that point?
Geopolitical alterations removed the jobs.
Unions make folks like you think they would always be there.
Thus, removing the impetus to move, retrain, and use 'can do' ethic that made America the envy of the world.
Now you'd like to blame the Right.
Thanks, Liberals.

Yes, i'd like to blame the right for NAFTA, GTO, Free Trade, MFN with China and every other bit of "Free Trade" legistlation that made it easy to move those jobs.
Fact is, we didn't have a real middle class with it's immense buying powers until we had unions. YOu can track the rise and fall of American prosperity to the rise and fall of unions, and they'd track nearly perfectly.
Republicans used to get this, until MNC's shoved too much money under their noses.

So that's why you ignored this, from post #59...

1. NEW YORK Gov. Chris Christie today warned an audience of national Republicans that the country is in danger of becoming a "paternalistic entitlement society" where people sit on the couch, "waiting for the next government check."
2. ...brought up national policy toward the end. He said it is the least optimistic period hes ever seen for the nation.
"Its because governments now telling them, stop dreaming, stop striving, well take care of you. Were turning into a paternalistic entitlement society. That will not just bankrupt us financially, it will bankrupt us morally," Christie told Bush, Henry Kissinger and an assortment of Republican governors in a theater at the New York Historical Society.
3. "When the American people no longer believe that this is a place where only their willingness to work hard and to act with honor and integrity and ingenuity determines their success in life, then well have a bunch of people sitting on a couch waiting for their next government check," Christie said."

Of course, such a warning flies in the teeth of the policies of the current food-stamp, class warfare President....
....but, then there's this:
"The lessons of history show conclusively that continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fiber. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit."
These searing words about Depression-era welfare are from Franklin Roosevelt's 1935 State of the Union Address. FDR feared this self-reliant people might come to depend permanently upon government for the necessities of their daily lives. Like narcotics, such a dependency would destroy the fiber and spirit of the nation.

why are there no dems spouting off about overweight Dems?

sack of shit.
But in this case, let's pretend its true for a moment. I think that unions don't necessarily belong in all work places or professions. I think also, a lot of what they fought for is now being done by the government.
I also think the unions have done a very bad job at public relations.
Doesn't take away from my point that a decline in union membership has doubled the decline in the middle class in this country. If a lot of people are too dumb to see that, it doesn't surprise me.

Pity however unrealistic, there was some hope Christie would refrain from drinking the Kool-Aide of conservative idiocy. Such is the power of the radical right in the GOP.

Yawn.... Rasmussen is a right wing hack and always has been.
If you take Mike Huckabee,
put him in a fat suit, and then remove every ounce of couth, class, courtesy, and humility you can find...
...you end up with Chris Christie.
