Yeah, they were lying bigtime, blaming Bush’s “tax cut for the rich” for the state of Social Security,
when the revenues increased, and the rich actually paid a BIGGER PERCENTAGE of the tax burden due to the decreased rates.
This is the line I use against libs on this topic -
Since revenues have been shown, every time, to increase whenever the rates are reduced, your argument for higher taxes must not be about revenue. It must be about your need for control, or some sort of childish jealous vindictiveness that you’ve been brainwashed into by the democrats.
Got another explanation? errr stammer uh...
There are sometimes when anyone can get swept up in the emotions of a ritual. The Nazis took full advantage. Yesterday Rush Limbaugh was swept away by the US Army band playing "Battle Hymn of the Republic" for the Pope. When my father was laid to rest at Arlington, and the finely dressed soldier handed the folded American flag to my mother, I was blubbering like a baby. The Nazis tapped into the power of ritual, mysticism, theater, and swept away quite a lot of folks with them. It is understandable, even if you personally are able to remain stoic.
But the media whores who're in the tank for Obama (Tom Shales etc.) are screaming this morning! Worst I've heard so far is Don Imus.
Imus, after committing the unforgiveable sin of admitting the truth about Obama a few days ago ("he's a phony") has been pussy-whipped back into line.
Imus apparently got a whuppin' from his lefty Obama-worshipping wife Deirdre and his new black female sidekick, Kerith Foster, for that little slip-up. (Kerith is also on the warpath against Monica Crowley, who as a guest on Imus program dared to criticize Obama - Kerith vows she'll "scratch Monica's eyes out.")
Now in penance Imus has taken a page (literally) from the Rev. Wright's sermon book, labeling anyone who brings up the Wright or Ayers stories as "stuck on stupid." Particularly Sean Hannity.
Imus finds Wright's "stuck on stupid" phrase so clever, he's rechristened the Hannity & Colmes show "Stuck on Stupid & Colmes." (Imus thinks that's so witty, he's made the joke about 50 times in the last two days.)
You listen to Imus?
Didn’t Bill also pardon a bunch of FARC terrorists?
FALN terrorists. It should help Hill in the Puerto Rico primary.
I thought of getting satellite radio so we could hear Bill Bennett instead. Never got around to it though.
He did it so that she'd get the Puerto Rican vote in New York during her senate run.
That’s the typical leftist method of “debate” -
if you don’t agree with my leftist position on everything, you must be stupid, because only stupid people don’t understand and take my “enlightened” viewpoint.
Sorry I said anything. Somehow, I mistook this for a place to exchange thoughts, and ideas.
Thanks. She can’t take the “moral” high ground in regard to William Ayers then. I loathe JMcC, but compared to the Dem twits he is the second coming of Reagan.
" Crackerquiddick Gate " is a Wright-size problem!!
You can't win a general election with a coalition of America hating African- Americans and America hating white liberal elitist billionaires/millionaires, who buy brie, Chardonnay, and Hussein Obama/Samma.
For an inside look at the real Hussein Obama and his elite hate America backers at San Francisco where Hussein Obama made his elitist remarks,
Go here to see the thread with all The Pictures posted and Here to see another thread about this meeting of elite left wing America haters.
There are some very interesting pictures and comments re the actual meeting on those threads.
"Hussein Obamas big mouth, small brain, condescending, America-hating, grandkid-baby-terminating, born-alive-infant-abandoning, America-hating-wife, kooky-moonbat-America-hating-pastor, racially-divisive, race-baiting, crotch-saluting, America-flag-disrespecting ... chickens ... coming home to roost ...!"
Ever since Imus has been back on the radio after getting canned for his women’s basketball comment, he’s seems to kiss you know what ass.
Is the picture of his Texas CHQ photoshoped? If not, WOW, JUST WOW!
I know. It was classic Clinton overkill, like she wasn't going to get that vote anyways. My point still stands, it should help her this June in PR.
Luckily Im not in the car in the AM these days. Imus is unlistenable. How many times can you listen to the same old hacks...is he still trotting the same bozos out? Doris Kearns Goodwin? Chris Dodd? Joe Biden? That idiot “security” guy? I used to listen to a little bit of it myself back in my commuter days. Ugh.
The Che picture was on the wall until all hell broke loose after it was exposed on the internet.
I read the article entirely. and the comments at the original site. One poster called Obama: OBAMBI. ROTFL !
Perhaps this is proof that God still loves America.
