Obama - a legacy of recycling Jimmy Carter's failed policies

More on Poodle's Utopia.

KXAN - As Texas economy grows, so does proverty rate

Employment, though, is not the only measure of economic prosperity. There is the question of quality of life.

The number of Texans living in poverty rose for a third consecutive year in 2011, adding more than 214,000 people to total 4.6 million. That's 18.5 percent of the population, 3 percent higher than the nation as a whole, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. By comparison, New Hampshire had the lowest proportion of people living in poverty, with 8.8 percent, and Mississippi the highest, 22.6 percent.

That's like saying a short dress made you rape that girl. It's bullshit. Guy, I work in this feild. Free Trade is as much about breaking the middle class as it is about making a profit for the greedy. Also, America has about the lowest taxes in the Industrialized world. So why are countries like Germany and Japan, which have higher tax rates, more prosperous?

No Joe, that's like raping a girl and the police telling her they are going to rape her again to "solve" the original rape. That is exactly what your dumb ass is proposing with your tax plan.

I love how you use completely unrelated, nonsensical "analogies" when I pin you in the corner with FACTS (like the FACT that we have the highest corporate tax rate in the world). It was "taxing the shit" out of corporations that sent the jobs overseas ass-hat! You created the problem and then you cry the loudest about it.

Guy, paying your fair share isn't a rape.

First of all, then why do you make the completely nonsensical rape analogy?!? Second of all, then why are you complaining about paying your "fair share"? It's time you useless poor parasites start paying YOUR FAIR SHARE instead of mooching off of the rest of us.

I don't see the Koch Brothers moving to Somalia where they have a Libertarian Paradise of lots of guns, no government and crazy religion.

And I don't see you moving to Cuba where they have socialized medicine, socialized housing, and the government makes everything equal for everybody (except themselves of course). So what's your point (besides pointing out your own hypocrisy)?

By the way, if you think you're going to get an argument out of regarding libertarian ideology, you're dumber than I give you credit for. Libertarians are ****'n morons and are every bit as dangerous to America as you libtard socialists. Usurping the Constitution to the right is just as dangerous as usurping the Constitution to the left

What the Koch Brothers and their ilk want is a government that protects their perqs, and they want the working class to pay for it. Your argument would make sense if when they fail, they are allowed to just fail. But we don't do that. The wealthy crashed the economy, and they got huge bailouts. They got to keep their big salaries and their bonuses and none of them went to jail.

Joe - you're making the case for conservatism! You're 100% right here: THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT TO FAIL. It was idiot LIBERALS using idiot LIBERALISM policy that propped up bad businesses and ensured they would continue to fail and drag down America.

I'm not arguing with you at all on this. It's an outrage that the American tax payer paid for the failures of these corporations. But look at USMB Joe - it's your side of the aisle (like idiot Candyass) who keep celebrating the bailouts because it bought them votes.

Joe is an libtardian idiot. you are wasting your time using facts with such as him. Their liberal ideology trumps their common sense.

Liberalism is truly a mental disease.

 

[P@triot]

So you giving up on the "Free Water is a Commie Plot" argument? Because that never gets old...

Joe - you're the only guy I know who is dumb enough to lie on the same website, in the same exact thread, which proves you are lying? All people have to do is scroll through the thread (might I suggest page 8) and they can unquestionably verify you are lying

I'm just siting here shaking my head at your insanity...

I know - but it's still fun exposing his absurd practice of placing his failed ideology above facts...

When I place an article which tracked IRS tax dollars over a year and we have to hear his sad attempt at a response of "I've been to Texas and they are poor hillbillies, it's not only hilarious, but it also annihilates his credibility in front of the world...

similar to how his hero and savior Obama has annihilated his credibility in front of the world.

I guess they are all trying to copy their failed leader. Misery loves company.

 

[candycorn]

Uh, yeah, right. Didn't you say they were going to do that last November?

****, man, if it weren't for all the confused racists, Romney would have lost 49 states.

But you honestly did reach a new level of Crazy when you called municipal water supplies a communist plot.

Except that I never referred to "municipal water supplies" as "communist". I never implied it either. You're LIES continue to pile up and humiliate you. And they prove that you have had your ass thoroughly handed to you - which is why you feel the need to lie.

The fact you are even trying to go there, that dammit, we should all get our own water instead of demanding government provide it like a bunch of "Communists", you kind of outed yourself as a Libertarian Crazy.

Okay, is there ANYTHING you really think the government should provide to people just because they are citizens? I mean, other than abstract nonsense like "Freedom" and "Liberty"?

Yep, leadership-----something totally missing in the Obama administration.


Reagan had it, Clinton had it, Kennedy had it, Truman had it, Bush had it, even Nixon had it. Obama---NOT A LEADER.

Obama is a decent leader. I wish he'd be more firey too but there is an obvious reason why he isn't. The difference between yesteryear and now is that There are just a vocal minority of douchebags that nitpick over furniture, vacations, teleprompters and his wife suggesting we drink more water.

If he was a real leader, none of those things would get any air time. His approval rating is in the low 40s, no one on either side of congress has any confidence in him. He is all over the place on every issue. The world is laughing at us. Americans are out of work. Even the unions are coming out against him.

The first black president could have healed this country, but obama has done just the opposite, its truly sad---------you libs picked the wrong guy.

Your "great leader" Bush was in the 20's.

no one on either side of congress has any confidence in him.

Oh? You took a poll?

He is all over the place on every issue.

The world is laughing at us.

No, just you and people like you for being Putin's *****.

Americans are out of work.

So no Americans were out of work under any other President...we had 100% employment until Obama showed up?

Even the unions are coming out against him.

I think he was wrong on Syria. I was against him on that. But, as always, a disagreement on subject "a" means, to you, that it's all over and that whomever disagrees is against him on B-Z.

The first black president could have healed this country, but obama has done just the opposite,

Just the douchebags like yourself seem to have a problem with feet on desks, the first lady suggesting we drink more water, his playing golf....basically the GOP has turned into the party of victims.

its truly sad---------you libs picked the wrong guy.

So says the guy who voted for *giggle* Mitt Romney.

332-206...picked it right!

Like most libtards, you misuse words because you need to create a new narrative since the facts are crushing you. It's not "nitpick" it's called HYPOCRISY. Every speech Obama gives the same tired rhetoric about American's needing to "sacrifice" - then he goes out and drops tens of millions on Michelle's ball-gowns, golf, and vacations in Hawaii & Martha's Vineyards. Every speech Obama gives the same tired rhetoric that American's need to be "their brothers keepers" to complete strangers - while he leaves his illegal alien aunt not only in America, but living off of welfare, government subsidized housing, and food stamps that she never paid a dime into. Why isn't he being "his aunt's keeper"? He sits on millions and preaches socialism while his aunt lives in poverty and his nephew has to get charity from conservatives to pay for his hospital bills.

Obama is an inner city, ghetto scam artist and man are you libtards buying into the scam hook, line, and sinker...

 

[deltex1]

I would call this astounding "failure" - except that these are the exact results Obama intended from the beginning:

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday that U.S. employers added only 169,000 jobs in August and that the labor force participation rate edged down to 63.2 percent, its lowest point since August 1978.

(and who was president again in 1978?)

It’s worth noting that the unemployment rate today would be approximately 10.8% if labor force participation were at January 2009 levels.

(after 4.5 years and 100% of the policies he insisted would "solve" the problem - we see an economy exponentially worse than the one he inherited)

Obamas failed economy

if only it was that simple...

Guy, everyone can go back and read what you said.

You said we should all be making our own water instead of getting it from the bad old gummit...

(By the way, my point about Clean Water is that the water is clean because the government keeps big corporations from dumping poisons into it, but never mind, you went there.)

First of all, then why do you make the completely nonsensical rape analogy?!? Second of all, then why are you complaining about paying your "fair share"? It's time you useless poor parasites start paying YOUR FAIR SHARE instead of mooching off of the rest of us.

Because my case it made sense.

The answer to rape is to lock up the rapists, not to issue rape victims strap-on dildos and tell them to do it the "right" way or "better".

The answer to Corporate abuses of workers and consumers is not to start up your own corporation, it's to make the corporations that exist play fair.

Simple, even for you....

And I don't see you moving to Cuba where they have socialized medicine, socialized housing, and the government makes everything equal for everybody (except themselves of course). So what's your point (besides pointing out your own hypocrisy)?

Nor should I. I want a solution for America. But I, unlike the Koch brothers, and very straightfoward in what I want. There are some things I think government can run better, there are some things I think the private sector can run better. I'd like to see more government in health care and less government in education.

The Koch Brothers, who fund Libetarian idiots like you, are not interested in abolishing government, just making it work for them.

By the way, if you think you're going to get an argument out of regarding libertarian ideology, you're dumber than I give you credit for. Libertarians are ****'n morons and are every bit as dangerous to America as you libtard socialists. Usurping the Constitution to the right is just as dangerous as usurping the Constitution to the left

No, you just suggested that Government shouldn't be in the Water Business... And I agree, Libertarians are morons. Sadly, they've got people like you repeating their rhetoric.

Joe - you're making the case for conservatism! You're 100% right here: THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT TO FAIL. It was idiot LIBERALS using idiot LIBERALISM policy that propped up bad businesses and ensured they would continue to fail and drag down America.

No, guy, the problem was, they should have been REGULATED PROPERLY. I'd have no problem with Lehman failing. It was Lehman failing and dragging down the rest of us I had a problem with. Sadly, we had no choice but to bail them out, but we'd have never gotten there had government had the authority and manpower to put a stop to the bad behavior before it started.

oh stop living in the past. Carter was 35 years ago.

CAAAAArter!!!

332-206. Sweet

popular vote 52/48. a very narrow win because millions of conservatives and libertarians stayed home---------------they were stupid to do that because they gave us 4 more years of incompetence in DC.

America deserves what it votes for.

ah stayed home...thats the excuse...lol...

 

[P@triot]

No, I just trust the government...

For all of your nonsense about "the gold old days", you've clearly just been trolling because nobody over the age of 24 would make such an immature, inexperienced, absurd comment. Joe "trusts" the government and their engineers, scientists, etc.

Hey Joe, how did those government engineers do with the levy's in New Orleans?
