The New GOP House announces their agenda!!!!

[HUGGY]

Liberty is not a government entitlement.

You are an idiot. If cutting taxes for the rich was supposed to create jobs we would already have them. Bush's tax cuts were passed in may of 2006. It's been over four years. Where are all the jobs? The rich haven't been hit hard by this reccession ..interest rates are at rock bottom. What's stopping the rich from creating jobs. Nothing. They never intended to invest their windfall into job creation. That is just another lie you assholes tell like its some economic fact. I'll grant you that it's worked for you so far. Many Americans have fallen for that line of bullshit. When your lies and propaganda finally wear out and the public wakes up from their stupor they are going to be very angry at those that have been leading the charge to give all the wealth to those that need it least and have no desire or need for "opportunity". Many already get it. More are waking up every day. When it reaches critical mass you wont be able to hide behind your fear mongering of gays, god, abortion, guns and fear of a black man in the white house.

Did I mention how much I hate you people?

Government needs 50% of your money to defend the country?

Your money is evidence of your private property. Governmentn doesn't own that.

Or to provide you with the means to make "your money".

All things being equal your share of the global economy is about $1/hour. The government, our government and society at large bend heaven and hell to raise your wages to the $18.75 that you actually earn.

You didn't earn it, the government and society subsidized your earnings or skewed the game to secure it for you.

None of it ever was or ever will be your money.

But you get a better title on property you buy with that money. Which again is still only partially yours.

 

[barenakedislam]

When a Conservative says "freedom" he means money. When a Liberal says "freedom", he means freedom.

Not exactly, when a liberal says 'freedom,' he means somebody else's money.

Really? And how did you come to that conclusion?

How? Liberals like Obama and friends are entitlement whores. But the only problem with his socialist/Marxist agenda is that eventually you run out of other people's money.

Liberty is not a government entitlement.

Correct. It is a God Given Right. The liberty of GOVERNMENT is what the constitution restricts.

It isn't a god given right, that is a crock of shit.

If you want complete liberty move to an uninhabited island and fend for yourself.

But if you live within a society you sacrifice most of your liberties in exchange for the benefits society bestows by virtue of scale.

Bush's tax cuts began in 2003 when the country was in recession that began in the last year of the Clinton admin topped off by 9/11. After the tax cuts millions of jobs were added and the unemployment rate hovered around 5% for most of his 8 years.

Your black Muslim man has ruined the country and now we intend to ruin him.

 

[loosecannon]

If they don't attempt to keep to the standards of those who elected them the republicans will lose in 2012.

The problem for the democrats is to not obstruct legislation this new house tries to pass. If the dems make it so the republicans can't do what the people elected them to do then the democrats instead will lose more in 2012.

No matter how much spin you hear this is truly how it is. The people are awake!

We will see.

But the people are never awake, ever.

They do get angry occasionally.

Investigation, impeachment, obstruction..what fun!

You may be right, or not.

I suspect the vast majority of today's conservatives are just brainwashed no nothings from backwater nowhere USA.

Are these the no nothings making $250K + ??? Just checking.....

Need some clarity there, most of us from backwater nowhere USA are clinging to our bibles and guns ya know......

 

[loosecannon]

you are a progressive loose cannon loosecannon, lol.

My share is $1/hour, your high.

I may have over estimated your contribution to the global economy. But without government and society bargaining for you you would be hard pressed to retain even $1/hour for your skills and abilities.

That is about the global average wage btw. Unless you can run a triple beam sewing machine and produce 30 shirts/hour with a rejection rate of less than 1.2% you may not make that much.

What recession?

It was basically over when President Bush got in. He saw a surplus and justified the Tax cuts that way.

And in 8 years..the Bush administration had a net gain of 3 million jobs.

That's terrible no matter how you slice it. Especially given the record profits and incomes of the top 3% of Americans..when 97% of the rest stayed flat and/or went down.

My 401K lost 60,000 dollars as a result of Bush.

Well spoken Huggy!!! Out of one side of their mouth they say government tax cuts creates jobs, and the other side is saying government cannot create jobs........tsk! LOL! And I recall the article I laid down the other day where the corporations are holding back over 1 Trillion dollars instead of investing in Americans.

Republicans unveil their 'Pledge to America'

Republicans on the campaign trail to retake Congress have a new roadmap.

The GOP unveiled its plan to fix the country Thursday, in a document titled "Pledge to America."

Speaking outside a hardware store in a suburb outside Washington, D.C., Republicans vowed to make the country better.

"The land of opportunity has become the land of shrinking prosperity ... Our government has failed us," Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said. "We will take back our country. We will restore for a better future. This is our pledge to you."

The 21-page manifesto gathers familiar talking points for Republicans, such as cutting taxes and slashing government spending.

"A number of people are very cynical about the reliability and the sincerity of either party," Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Texas), the head of the Republicans’ House campaign committee, said.

"We've put things on a sheet of paper."

and here is that piece of paper: A Pledge to America - A New Republican Governing Agenda - GOP.gov

America is more than a country.

America is an idea – an idea that free people can govern themselves, that government’s powers are derived from the consent of the governed, that each of us is endowed by their Creator with the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. America is the belief that any man or woman can – given economic, political, and religious liberty – advance themselves, their families, and the common good.

America is an inspiration to those who yearn to be free and have the ability and the dignity to determine their own destiny.

Whenever the agenda of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to institute a new governing agenda and set a different course.

These first principles were proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, enshrined in the Constitution, and have endured through hard sacrifice and commitment by generations of Americans.

In a self-governing society, the only bulwark against the power of the state is the consent of the governed, and regarding the policies of the current government, the governed do not consent.

An unchecked executive, a compliant legislature, and an overreaching judiciary have combined to thwart the will of the people and overturn their votes and their values, striking down longstanding laws and institutions and scorning the deepest beliefs of the American people.

An arrogant and out-of-touch government of self-appointed elites makes decisions, issues mandates, and enacts laws without accepting or requesting the input of the many.

Rising joblessness, crushing debt, and a polarizing political environment are fraying the bonds among our people and blurring our sense of national purpose.

Like free peoples of the past, our citizens refuse to accommodate a government that believes it can replace the will of the people with its own. The American people are speaking out, demanding that we realign our country’s compass with its founding principles and apply those principles to solve our common problems for the common good.

The need for urgent action to repair our economy and reclaim our government for the people cannot be overstated.

With this document, we pledge to dedicate ourselves to the task of reconnecting our highest aspirations to the permanent truths of our founding by keeping faith with the values our nation was founded on, the principles we stand for, and the priorities of our people. This is our Pledge to America.

We pledge to honor the Constitution as constructed by its framers and honor the original intent of those precepts that have been consistently ignored – particularly the Tenth Amendment, which grants that all powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

We pledge to advance policies that promote greater liberty, wider opportunity, a robust defense, and national economic prosperity.

We pledge to honor families, traditional marriage, life, and the private and faith-based organizations that form the core of our American values.

We pledge to make government more transparent in its actions, careful in its stewardship, and honest in its dealings.

We pledge to uphold the purpose and promise of a better America, knowing that to whom much is given, much is expected and that the blessings of our liberty buoy the hopes of mankind.

We make this pledge bearing true faith and allegiance to the people we represent, and we invite fellow citizens and patriots to join us in forming a new governing agenda for America.

The next two years should be bitchin fun! Let's see if the new GOP can keep their promises!

If they don't attempt to keep to the standards of those who elected them the republicans will lose in 2012.

The problem for the democrats is to not obstruct legislation this new house tries to pass. If the dems make it so the republicans can't do what the people elected them to do then the democrats instead will lose more in 2012.

No matter how much spin you hear this is truly how it is. The people are awake!

Wide awake, yesterday was all the proof anyone needed.....thank god!!

My 401K lost 60,000 dollars as a result of Bush.

Now I know this is going to piss you off, but for the same amount of taxes, a German worker needs no 401K or investment scheme or pissed on SS, he gets a full wage retirement, annual vacations, full Health Care, a tax free home, free tv, best transportation system with some of it free. Eventually American workers will wake up and wonder why they are getting shit on? LOL!!! Sorry................

The government does not create jobs, private business does. Tax increases which is what Obama is promising encourage businesses NOT to hire more employees, because they know the government is going to be taking a lot more in taxes. It's called Screw You Obama, no tax cuts extension, no more hiring.

That $250,000 "millionaire" tax increase Obumbler keeps mentioning will hurt businesses making $250,000/yr the most. These are small businesses that hire the most people. $250,000 is gross income, not the income of the business owner. So Obama's tax increase on businesses making $250,000 - $1 million will destroy small businesses but not hurt the real millionaires because they can move their millions overseas. Got it yet?

Always......do you need help understanding it?

Your black Muslim man has ruined the country and now we intend to ruin him.

The countries economy was artificially inflated during the dot com bubble and much of the stress on the economy that caught up with us during that time was the savings and loan scam and failure combined with the rapidly increasing cost of energy manipulated into being by enron. The tax cuts for the rich did nothing for the country except drain trillions from the tax base. You may think you are clever and as long as you have a black president to blame it really doesn't matter what it has cost us to sustain unneccesary wars and subsidise the wealthy..the oil corporations..the coal companies..the HMO's .

You are not clever..you and your kind are fools and dangerous morons.

Obama isn't "my man". He's not even in my party. But he is a man more worthy of being called an American than you are.
