Republicans: Party First

[asterism]

Sequester:

Obama's plan to prove we can't survive ANY cut to discretionary spending after getting a tax increase.


How's that working out? Did the US collapse?

 

[sfcalifornia]

Considering Rand Paul is the only person who has done any legitimate filibuster in quite a long time, yes I am denying that.

Simply because you want to now endorse the silent fillibuster despite it existing no where except in the minds of lazy politicians, doesn't mean I do.

Where did you get the idea I want to endorse the silent filibuster? I think all filibustering is stupid and they should do away with it entirely. And the stupid silent filibuster the Republicans pull all the time is the biggest *****-tactic ever.

Be a little more specific about these "filibusters". Keep in mind your credibility is on the line.

Be a little more specific about your question? Keep in mind though since I don't give a crap about what you think in general, I sure as shit don't care what you think about my credibility.

Yeah, so how about answering the question? What filibusters are you talking about?

What? Are ya pissed because you tried to use bullshit and it backfired? Sorry that I know more about the military retirement system than you, but that's because I actually enlisted and put my ass on the line for 20 years.

But..................like I said...................nice try on the scare tactics, but anyone who enlists and has a new retirement system will fully understand it before they sign their enlistment document.

Kinda what has to happen, because if the enlistee doesn't understand their contract fully, it can come back to bite the MEPS in the ass.

How do I know that? I also worked at MEPS as the LPO (Leading Petty Officer) for about 2 1/2 years prior to my retirement.

I'm not pissed at all. In fact, I'm laughing at you and your efforts to defend the worst president in American history. But do keep trying, it's entertaining.

Actually, I thought that Nixon and Jr. held the top spots for being the worst president.

But, you can believe Obama is, just try to ignore the stock market, dropping unemployment (down to 7.7 percent at last count) as well as the fact that the housing market is starting to come back as well.

But like I said.................you don't know shit about what the military is or isn't doing.

Just remember that you are cheering 7.7% unemployment, something you never would have considered doing 10 years ago. The S&P is flat for 16 years, still down since 13 years ago.

Really. You're going to deny that the Senate is stalled because of filibustering?

 

[Qball]

Yes, how dare those Republicans not pass every bill a Democrat proposes?

This is why I don't take terms like "far-right" seriously. To liberals, anybody more conservative than Nancy Pelosi is a right-wing wacko.

 

[Two Thumbs]

While I'm not a rep

Nothing on that list needed to be passed, and was all feel good bullshit that would have piled more onto the debt.

not that you understand that, or care

 

[Two Thumbs]

Democrats could introduce a "Quit Strangling Puppies Act", and Republicans would oppose it.

That law has been passed, and it's why you can't abuse animals.

nice try though, but I see the unthinking thanked you

Can't answer, can you? Exactly what bills are the Republicans filibustering? You made the charge, now back it up.

 

[Synthaholic]

Wingnuts cannot defend this behaviour, so they run from threads like this like the cowards they are.

Defend what behavior? Not rubber stamping everything? Yeah such a horrible thing.

The behaviour of not supporting 9-11 responders, for one.

 

[Synthaholic]

A Huffington Post blogger, that's a credible source. Well, I'm sold.

Are you denying the Republicans filibustered all those measures? Because the filibusters are true whether it's in a blog or news.

Considering Rand Paul is the only person who has done any legitimate filibuster in quite a long time, yes I am denying that.

Simply because you want to now endorse the silent fillibuster despite it existing no where except in the minds of lazy politicians, doesn't mean I do.

I always knew you were a know-nothing and a political poser. Now you're proven it.

The 'silent filibuster' carries the same weight in the Senate as a talking filibuster.

 

[KnobbyWalsh]

Synth, like ya man, but as obvious as it is that Republicans put their money and their politics before country, plenty of Democrats are just as guilty of that.

Only a portion of it has kicked in. Wait another month. You'll know when Republicans start whining.

Now take a shower.

When unemployment was 5% under Bush, Republicans claimed that equated to full employment, since the 5% consisted of people who had given up on the job market, etc.

That means the actual unemployment now is only 2.7%. Correct?

Or were the Bushies lying, but you accepted those lies?

 

[Stephanie]

lol, Obama won and they are still friggen whining..

they sure don't like it when the shoe that they treated Bush with is on the other foot..

but here's this............waaa

Post PROOF to the contrary.

I'm sick of rw's being so damn dishonest. Disagree if you want but if you can't back up your opinion, you've got nuthin and posting nuthin makes you look like an idiot rw.

I'd really like to see a list of JOBS bills introduced or voted on my Repubs.

How about bills in favor of economic recovery?

Please post them.

You obviously don't know what a filibuster is.

The best "jobs bill" is for the government to stay the **** out of the way. Everything government does costs money, which increases the debt, which causes economic uncertaintly, which results in businesses being reluctant to hire, which causes unemployment to rise, you ******* simpleton.
