You Taught The GOP A Lesson: You Want Higher Taxes So They Will Grant Your Wish

[bripat9643]

so again the GOP have no plan. thanks for reinforcing that.

No one cares, asshole.

and there it is. thanks for the name calling. you have officially become irrelevant.

You're some kind of official? What's your title, official Obama dick sucker?

 

[bripat9643]

What Obama put in the table was not a plan. It was a joke - a "non-starter" as you call it. Does anyone believe the Republicans are going to agree to abolish the debt ceiling? ROFL! Only a truly delusional moron would believe that is in the cards.

If the cuts have been a "clusterfuck," then why does Obama want to keep most of them?

You drones just can't keep your arguments straight, can you?

Correct. It is a request for appropriations by Congress, which the Executive is required to do by law (reference US Constitution)

huh?

the right only follows the constitution when it suits their argument.

What the **** does this have to do with anything I posted?

Boner's plan was to make the Bush tax rates permanent.

That's actually not a plan. It's telling the base what it wants to hear while working out some excuses for how Obama made him do it. (read: he already knows it's a non-starter since the cuts have been a clusterfuck going on 11 years and change.)

If the cuts have been a "clusterfuck," then why does Obama want to keep most of them?

Emphasis added. Three reasons:

1. While most brackets would remain at Bush Cuts levels, the upper brackets are where the cream is.

2. Middle class wages have gone into the shitter. And taxing them more would further reduce consumption, which is struggling already.

3. Political expediency, obviously. It's an inexorable part of our form of republican democracy.

it shows your lack of understanding of the the constitution and the way the government works.

but im pretty sure that basic reading comprehensions is something you never learned.

do you have a fascination with sucking Obama's dick? you brought up the topic so one can easily deduce that this has been on your mind for quite some time. care to elaborate on your fascination with his dick?

 

[JakeStarkey]

We will eliminate any neo-libertarians, believe me.

You have stated elsewhere you are not Republican.

So you lying: either then or now.

We discussing you because you deflected.

I wasn't a Republican until I registered as one for this election. Now I can help to rid the party of two-faced weasels like you.

 

[Cammmpbell]

i think your tin foil hat is affecting brain functions

Spewing pet pejoratives like "tinfoil hat" constitutes proof of absolutely nothing, but what else can an Obama drone do?

still waiting on the GOP plan. can you produce one finally?

The GOP plan is apparent...**** the middle class, or at least what's left of it:

3. Political expediency, obviously. It's an inexorable part of our form of republican democracy.

It still doesnt eliminate the fact that just taxing the upper brackets at the clinton era level will not do jack squat. Any meaningful increase would have to reach confiscation levels if you just tax the top 2-3% of people, and even then, after one year, all that money is gone.

For people who keep calling themselves memebers of the reality based community, progressives seem to be really bad at basic math, or worse, deliberately ignorant of reality.

For you guys 2+2 = 5,000,000 and a balanced budget.

Then why oppose it?

But, and funny as shit...

For 25 years say deficits are not a problem, so don't raise taxes.

Then once you have to admit that it's a big ******* problem, say don't raise taxes since the problem is too big to fix.

******* comical.

This discussion has nothing to do with your delusions about how the Constitution works. The political reality is that unless both the President and Congress agree on the details, it won't become law.

End of story.

You're admitting it was incomprehensible gibberish?

Republicans have never said deficits are not a problem, so your screed is pure horseshit, as usual.

 

[bigrebnc1775]

Let's get this party started as soon the democrats get everything they want to sooner we can finish off the U.S. economy and the sooner we get get rid of the liberal democratic party forever in America.
I'll take a few words from LBJ
The deomcrates will have America voting Republican for 400 years

There is little more than that coming from the right; personal attacks are all that they have left for the most part. When the opposition knows only one song, it tends to be the only one that they can sing.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The pathetic is coming from the far right, which is not the mainstream.

The cauterwalling is in part because they realize they have lost their clout in the party because of the loss.

For you, my dog, a turnip? Certainty.
