**WAIT***
behar lost her job @ good morning america... and went on unemployment???
are you freakin kidding me?
did she need it? i’m 100% certain that job pays a tad more then $50k/year. what? couldn’t she save anything? didn’t she have enough to hold her until the next gig showed up?
i’ve gone months (not intentionally, like now) where i’ve been looking for work... and not once in my life have i ever collected unemployment (i’m not sure i’d know where to start, even if i wanted to, which i dont)
this is a sign of the problem. and one reason i intentionally stopped working and paying in. i refuse to pay for people like that.
mooching scumbags, all of them
and bullsh#t...and that many of the woes the country faces today are directly attributed to the grifters(Clinton's)and their selfish, greedy, corrupt friends(both here and abroad)playing their games.
I keep seeing these posts on FR about how 'wonderful' Anne is and how she schools the opposition, but these days she acts almost as if she does not believe herself. She always seems to allow her opposition to steamroller right over her. Granted, her opposition shouts, screams and drools, but is that a reason to allow them to win.
Precisely - also, what was not mentioned is that the economy was going into a recession when Bush came to office, even before the 9/11 attacks. Bush blew it big time when he went along with Kennedy on the No Child Left Behind and the Medicare Drug benefit - plus the debacle of the Pelosi Congress in 2006 —the beginning of the end. Clinton benefits from the Repub Congress & Bush tanks under the Dem Congress. IN the end, they’re all Big Govt. Boobs, and none of them deserve to be defended.
What surplus did Clinton leave? The National Debt kept growing and was higher than when he became POTUS. Plus we were heading into a recession at the time, so the surplus was going to be VERY temporary anyway. If you find a hundred dollar bill on the street, but you have $6000 in credit card debt, you have a “surplus” that is meaningless.
Poor Joyless Bear, she would not have survived going from Good Morning America to this gig making $5 Million per year. Isn’t she supposed to be a comedian and couldn’t she work at that while she was waiting for her DNC propagandist job? What a greedy baffoon.
Pray for America
The Federal Government has been spending too much money for far too many years. That's a fact.
IIRC - Clinton’s presidency did not go into “surplus” (whatever that word means in DC nowadays) until the Democrats lost control of Congress to the Republicans.

The surpluses during the Clinton administration were almost entirely the result of the fall of the soviet empire and the Clinton's winding down the cold war military. The soviet empire failed as a result of Regan and Bush 41 policies. Bush 43 was forced to build the military back up because of 9-11 and because Clinton left it in shambles..
Somehow that never seems to get done, Joy.
Neither does means testing your 401K or your other assets.
You have that backwards. It was under the Newt-led house that the budget became temporarily controllable and had a surplus (under some, but not all, definitions).
The Republicans kept grinding away at Clintoon until he signed their budgets with far less spending than what he wanted.
Check any chart that shows government spending and deficit levels and superimpose which party ran the congressional houses and you’ll see a correlation. Republicans aren’t great, but overall they tend to spend less.
The early Bush 43 years were an anomaly. Republicans had the white house, the senate and the house of reps and still overspent to reward their establishment buddies.
Think about that for a minute...
Just because it bears repeating.
Or a leopard against a crocodile.
That doesn't matter. The truth is, both parties are responsible. There are a lot of RINOs who need to be removed from office, including Bohner.
Terrible fare.
Coulter should have said, "Even with your lousy ratings, your income at GMA was many times the income of your average viewer. Perhaps if you had lived a bit below your means, you could have saved a few bucks for just these types of emergencies and would not have needed unemployment welfare. That's the problem with liberals: They don't think ahead and spend way more than their means."
COULTER: Ok. But how about treats being Social Security going to Donald Trump, because that's the way the system is set up right now?
Coulter should have referred to the govenrment "treats" going to well-paid talk show hosts and others in the leftist Hollywood elite.
