Sounds like a Democrat politician....

Come to think of it, it sounds like a Republican politician as well..

:D

Michale

In addition to the TAX THE RICH example, I can also point to Obama's castigation of, then love affair with, SuperPACS and the Citizens United ruling..

You can't castigate Republicans for doing what Democrats also do...

Well, you CAN, of course.. :D

Michale

Name me one Democrat who has written an extra check on their own to Uncle Sam after calling for the rich to be taxed more..

I know you are loathe to admit it, but it DOES work both ways.. :D

Michale

Uh oh. Do wRong Paul and Rant Paul count?

Major Major’s father was a sober God-fearing man whose idea of a good joke was to lie about his age. He was a longlimbed farmer, a God-fearing, freedom-loving, law-abiding rugged individualist who held that federal aid to anyone but farmers was creeping socialism. He advocated thrift and hard work and disapproved of loose women who turned him down. His specialty was alfalfa, and he made a good thing out of not growing any. The government paid him well for every bushel of alfalfa he did not grow. The more alfalfa he did not grow, the more money the government gave him, and he spent every penny he didn’t earn on new land to increase the amount of alfalfa he did not produce. Major Major’s father worked without rest at not growing alfalfa. On long winter evenings he remained indoors and did not mend harness, and he sprang out of bed at the crack of noon every day just to make certain that the chores would not be done. He invested in land wisely and soon was not growing more alfalfa than any other man in the county. Neighbors sought him out for advice on all subjects, for he had made much money and was therefore wise. “As ye sow, so shall ye reap,” he counseled one and all, and everyone said, “Amen.”

Major Major’s father was an outspoken champion of economy in government, provided it did not interfere with the sacred duty of government to pay farmers as much as they could get for all the alfalfa they produced that no one else wanted or for not producing any alfalfa at all. He was a proud and independent man who was opposed to unemployment insurance and never hesitated to whine, whimper, wheedle and extort for as much as he could get from whomever he could.

In other words, you got nothin'.

Heh.

Name me one Republican who has ever called for getting rid of (or even lessening) farm subsidies. You know, all those moochers of federal money, which the GOP panders to by showering them with dough in order to create good little GOP voters.

Michale

The same reason Democrats scream and whine and cry about the rich paying their fair share in taxes, yet use every loophole they can find to lessen their taxes...

Michale

If the GOP is so down on moochers, why did they give the response speech to Ernst, whose family sucked almost half a million bucks off the federal teat?

May God rest his sole.

hehehehehehehehehehehe

Now THAT was funny!!! :D

Now it's a way of life for TOO many people..

They have gone from 24% in 1963 to 59% in 2013..

Make the populace dependent on Democrats and people will continue to vote for continued enslavement..

And when the majority of the voters start to see thru the plan, then Democrats simply mint millions of fresh new voters..

Entitlements were supposed to be a temporary helping hand..

Is there a problem with wanting to ensure that everyone has enough food to eat and the capacity to own a means of transporting themselves to and from work (which would help with the food item)? If it's a good/popular idea, why abandon it?

Michale

More like Frak baby frak. How long the debt loaded frakers can keep afloat in a $1.99 market remains to be seen.

Yea, I hear ya... The predictions are all over the board..

Advantage Mitt.

The political fundamentals seem to favor the Dems in 2016 about as much as they did in 2008 and 2012. The cluelessness plus big pockets of Mitt may be enough secure him the nomination in a bad cycle.

If the Republicans are going to re-brand themselves as economic populists of the 97%, they will have to do it after the primaries, where Cruz Control will be a big factor. State vs national politics.

Thank the gods for DRILL BABY DRILL!!!

What comment? Enjoy your week.

No.. It was very easy to do because he simply rehashed everything he said in his previous SOTU speeches...

Democrats have no new ideas beyond a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage and more obamaphones and more food stamps..

THAT is the Democrat's "plan"...

And the rich get richer and the poor and middle class get poorer...

Same ol same ol...

But at least I get to pay $1.99 for gas!! :D

Thank the gods for DRILL BABY DRILL!!!

Michale

OK, maybe you're right. But I'm having an optimistic week, so I'm going to ignore your comment for now.

Heh.
