now that Trump is elected , cons have quickly forgotten issues that really bothered them under Obama.
Debt/deficit : 20 trillion!! Bah, who cares . Let's build giant walls and double the military. Costs be damn !
Prez security budget: Obama couldn't go to dinner without a story of how it cost taxpayers trillions . Now trump will be commuting from DC to manhattan on a daily basis . That's cool!
States rights : sanctuary city? You
Must bow to the Feds directives , at your own cost!
What else ? I had more but forgot .
Republicans blocked infrastructure investment for eight years
We couldn't afford it and couldn't have Obama get credit for all those jobs.
Now, it is a cornerstone of Trumps agenda
Yep.....infrastructure investment.....a.k. STIMULUS? Shovel-ready Jobs?
Obama had no intention of INVESTING in infrastructure.
BTW, Investment = Raising Taxes
When Obama spoke of Transforming America, what he really meant was flooding the country with brown skinned foreigners and putting blacks in jobs they didn't qualify for.
When Obama spoke of Social Justice, what he really meant was organizing protests all over the country and giving blacks the idea that shooting cops is socially acceptable.
It's become pretty damned clear that all of those despicable White Crackers were right about what happens when you put a Black Man in the White House. Obama did exactly what they warned us he would do. I wish it wasn't the case, because I wanted a black to eventually get there, but Obama has ruined that. I don't think enough people would trust the next guy to do the right thing and I especially don't trust any black that's a Democrat. I know, that sounds racist, but it's really a sad commentary on the state of things today.

Wow...this thread is stimulating!
There's more 'just the facts' actually being addressed,
rationally, by more posters, on one thread,
then I'm accustomed to...how refreshing!
Anyhoo...I couldn't agree more!
The only ones, shovel ready jobs were intended for, were these guys...
I live on a busy street, not a residential street.
Walking to the bus stop one morning,
I see that sign, alongside another sign,
with information for when & where the project will begin and end.
I'm thinking to myself... are you ******* kidding me?!
They're spending money on signs
to tell me what they're spending money on
Wtf...everyone in america works in construction or at a sign shop now?
Putting america to work, my ass...
working over the idiot majority, is more like it!
Why should we need to 'invest' money in anything,
that already has an assigned spending budget for said dept. projects?
Furthermore, why
did the dems find it necessary
to waste more money on signs, touting,
'this project made possible by Obama's stimulus initiative'?
I'll tell ya why! The dems knew these signs weren't a waste of money,
but, the next phase after their 'depression era' fearmongering blitz.
A clever investment to make people buy the shit they were selling...
by the power of suggestion, through repetition and duration.
In the entire history of man,
no one has ever been brainwashed and realized,
or believed, that he had been brainwashed.
