The republicans blew their biggest chance.

[Full-Auto]

They had control of everything for about what 6 years there during the Bush admin.
And what did they accomplish?
2 wars,
nearly doubled debt,
$4 gas
And a Recession

Why should anyone believe the promises they are still making that they made before the 2000 election?
What a waste of an opportunity to change things to suit them.

How long since the last time they had controlled congress and the presidency?

Because democrats have given us the same thing. With increases across the board being the exception.

 

[Full-Auto]

Add the corruption and the democrats have proven worse.

 

[uscitizen]

15 trillion in debt and deficit spending as far as the eye can see. No budget in 3 years and all bills pilling up in the senate waste basket.

Your so called saviors are digging us deeper in the hole that their predecessors.

Without the super committee, the spending cuts start automatically in January of 2013.

When the Bush tax cuts expire in December of 2012, Obama won't allow them to be renewed.

Spending cuts + a return to the old tax rates = deficit reduction.

Congress has been taken out of the equation. No treasonous Tea Party/Republicans to mess things up.

Another brilliant move by Obama.

The messiah will be gone in 2013 as a result of all his so called brilliant moves.

And the republican winner will undo the agreement that his party agreed to?
Figures.

Ahh perhaps you begin to catch on just a bit.

If the demoncrats give us the same thing then why be such a parrot for the republicans if there is no difference?

what corruption?

 

[rdean]

They ran on "Jobs Jobs Jobs" during the last election and people still believed what they had to say. Once elected, they said, "Government can't make jobs".

You have to admit, that's a bit more catchy than "abortion, abortion, abortion, contraception, end Medicare," even if it's a bit less revealing of their actual priorities.

You're right. It is more catchy.

But it's a mistake to say women want "abortions". No woman wants an abortion. What they want is the right to decide for themselves. Republicans don't think they are smart enough to handle that right.

1. Tax cuts that enabled a speedy recovery from the devastation following 9/11, an unemployment rate nearing 4%, and a significant movement of "middle class" Americans moving to the "Upper Class" ( I despise the language, but the statistical demarcations labeled as such).

2. I'll give you that one. Once, again Statist giveaways to avoid political damage from "grandma has to choose between her going without her meds or eating cat food" rot.

3. An economic meltdown precipitated by banking and housing market policies of the Clinton administration.

4. Again, I have to concede that. Ridiculous wars not focused on victory, but on public relations, resulting in unnecessary loss of American life and resources without accomplishing anything in the real of positive opinion abroad.

You seem to assume that there are real cuts coming. There is still $1.3 trillion in deficit spending in Obama's "budget". Combine that with increased uncertainty and cost from tax cuts and potential regulation from a Obama administration willing to circumvent Congress, not to mention the astounding devaluation of the currency from debt monetization, and we have a serious problem on our hands. Only the ignorant or willfully blind are unaware of it.

The Bush tax cuts had to be passed through reconciliation. Democrats understand that cutting taxes will cause a small bump to the economy. But the economy only grows if you "make stuff". Tax cuts don't "make stuff". They merely provide a small amount of cash to spend for a very short time. "Cut taxes" isn't a "policy", it's a "scam". Eventually, there are no more taxes to cut, then what? What comes next? Three words Republicans dread being asked.

Tax cuts don't "make stuff". PEOPLE make stuff. They use their resources to be productive or to purchase the produce of others, allowing them to make more stuff. The government doesn't "make stuff". It takes some, wastes a lot, and exchanges something to someone who hasn't earned in return for votes. Cutting taxes allows people to keep more of THEIR money to use as they choose, generally being much more efficient and productive than any centralized authority possibly can be. Cutting spending decreases waste and eliminates money from going where it doesn't really have the consent of or benefit to those that provide it.

Love the way you display your limited understanding of how things work. And the whole "centralized authority" thing. Proves you've swallowed the talking points hook, line and sinker. Once that propaganda has taken such deep root, it's difficult for common sense and understanding to make any headway, but we'll try.

Republican tax cuts add a few bucks to the middle class. It's a "buy off" and keeps them quiet. What the Bush tax cuts did was redistribute the wealth from the middle class to the top 5%. In the mean time, our roads are falling apart. We have 70,000 unsafe bridges. Our electrical grid is old and in some places, every time there's a storm, the power goes out. Our sewers need and upgrade. And look at how much it actually helped the economy. Explain all that.

You see, how Republicans "imagine" things to turn out and how they turn out are worlds apart. Many Republicans believe the failure in Iraq was because the Iraqi people were "ungrateful". That it was their fault. Same with these damn tax cuts. Republicans are so sure they will work. It's their only policy. Only they don't work.

And take a look at government. Who shows up when there is a disaster. Erick Cantor wants to put a stop to that. Costs too much.

What about NASA. Created thousands of patents that business buys or licenses. Research is risky. Most companies grow, not by research, but by acquisition with actually reduces competitiveness.

These are not propaganda. They are regular business "truths" understood by CEO's everywhere. Why is it so difficult for Republicans to understand?

Hey, Obama had control of everything, and managed to blow it in two years. Ran up more debt in three years than Bush ran up in eight, and he thinks $4.00 a gallon gas is a good thing.

Now, it is true, that the GOP had a great chance this year to dump this guy, and they've blown it by nominating a Weird Mormon Robot.

I just try to understand why you keep repeating those lies? Do you really believe this bullshit you dutifully regurgitate? There is no substance there. No thought. No links. No understanding. Nothing but "talking points" provided by Fox news and Glenn Beck.

Rdean, you are the talking point king. I'm not sure you've ever posted an original thought on this board, but I'm not on here that often so I guess it's possible.

The republicans blew it. That's why they lost everything but if you really think democrats have made it better, fill your car up with 5 dollar gas, unemoyment is higher, and the debt is higher than ever.

No need to live in the past ...

those who do not learn from history...

Indeed. While the vast majority have learned from the past, many of you on here dwell in the past. It's the very reason our country isn't really moving forward beyond a snails pace.

Again, stop living in the past.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Get some new material chump.

You just hate getting your nose rubbed in Bush's shit. I don't blame you. Truth hurts.

Naw, I just don't find comfort in blaming someone else for our current fiscal mess. Everyone knows Obama had a mess handed to him. Sadly many of you don't see how he simply doubled down on the same damn policies.

Idiots
