You don't have a clue about me and you're proving you are a fool. You don't give me anything, jerk. I earn every damn penny!
bring back duelling!
And he promosised he would only stay for TWO!
He’s just throwing up straw men because he has no real argument. I learned this about him a while back. He’s an expert at pretending that he knows what he’s talking about, but when it comes down to brass tacks, he’s nothing but a shill for bailouts and huge government crony-capitalism. And a rather mindless one at that.
In other words, JasonC is a textbook definition of a fascist. He tells people like you and me that we’re not conservative, because he thinks that in order to be conservative, you need to think like a fascist.
You are mistaken, Jason.
Exactly! We opened our business with our money and didn't ask the government for a damn thing. Too bad the government can't say the same thing.
at least shown an ability to work with Democrats?”
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Work with Marxists! Huh!
Listen! Communism is a viciously evil idea that when born should have been drowned in a bucket!
Who might 'we' be in your world, Jason?!
He can say anything he wants it just doesn't make it true. I think I know what capitalism is since we have been running a business for over 30 years. I'll listen to him when he can put his money where his mouth is (without government funds).
If you are a RINO turd we are coming after your sorry ass.
If you are a democrat we are coming after your sorry ass.
If you are not a Reagan smaller govt conservative we are coming after your sorry ass.
Fact is, if you are a d.c. insider, we are coming after your sorry ass.
LOL...you’ll probably be waiting a while.
Folks like us who own businesses don’t count as capitalists in Jason’s world. If you and I fail, we don’t get a bailout. And if we succeed, we have to pay for everyone else’s.
Trying to figure out what this means, what’s outrageous? Free elections, the right of the people to chose their representatives, democracy in action? What exactly is the outrage?I wish somebody had the guts to ask this clown this question to his face, on the air. But I guess that's not possible.
Noticed that as well. What it tells me is that the Inside-the-Beltway crowd still thinks that the country has ratcheted permanently to the Left courtesy of their Anointed One - and yes, 0bama was Brooks' Anointed One - and that somehow the Tea Party stuff isn't real. This panel, and I do not entirely exempt Kristol, are so used to fluff, image, and PR sizzle that they're in a flopsweat panic when a genuine political movement turns up.
Bennett didn't lose his career, he lost his seat. It will be filled by someone less prone to compromise with the Powers That Be (or that individual will be looking for work too), who this panel of throne-kissers think is some sort of a permanent ruling class with themselves members in good standing. The piggies are squealing because something's pricking all of them, not just the ones with (D) after their names.
Only WWII pulled the country out of FDR’s disastrous mismanagement of the economy. Millions of men drafted into the military certainly increased the employment numbers for those left at home.The draft certainly had an effect but bigger than the draft was the fact that FDR wanted to win the war more than he wanted to continue his socialist policies and in a tactical decision to increase economic activity to boost the war effort he removed many of the most onerous restrictions on business activity in America.
That's really why the depression ended with the war.
Oh my ... I can only imagine how they will whine after November.
“I agree with Juan Williams in this instance.”
Well maybe I agree with Juan in a very superficial sense. But NEVER forget that it was long term government intervention that actually placed us on the precipice. It was so-called Republican moderates that worked with Democrats over the years that permitted the leftists to drag us to the edge of that economic cliff.
Working with people that are out to destroy the fundamental workings of your government, the Constitution and the cultural values that made us successful(Christian heritage, for example)is the equivalent of digging your own grave before you are executed.
Earmarks and pork, I agree, are repulsive, but that is not what has us in trouble. It is the bloated Federal government bureaucracy and entitlements: Social security retirement age, health benefits, negative income tax (that is tax credits, and, more than 47% need to be paying tax, free lunch programs, education grants, welfare payments . . . and the list goes on and on and on.
I have only read a few of the comments above, so I’m probably repeating someone’s earlier point. Here are the two money quotes, IMO:
“So he bravely cast a vote that nobody wanted to really cast and now he’s losing his career over that. And it’s just a damn outrage.”
“This is evidence of how the American political center is losing, on the right wing of the party a guy like Bob Bennett, who is a right-wing conservative, is being driven out because he’s not sufficiently conservative?...If I lived in Utah, I’m going to give up Bob Bennett and his seniority and connections?”
Notice in the second remark (Juan Williams) that the reason Bennett is worth reelecting is he is well connected.
This shows that Williams doesn’t understand Tea Partiers yet. It also demonstrates that he is a political hack.
Exactly!
Buddy, if you were smart enough to actually read English, you’d see I AM AGGREING WITH YOU!!!!
Geez go over to DU and pick a fight with someone.
