That Obamacare thing was some "cooperation" ... there was so much "cooperating" going on that the Dems had to ram it through without reading their own bill and without allowing the opposition to offer any amendments to it.
And then there was all that cooperating going on in Wisconsin, or there could have been, if the democrats had not run away to Illinois to party in a hotel bar or called in their pet thugs to trash the state capitol building.
Yeah, even that went to the left.
Now he says there are 3 million jobs just waiting for the right pepole to be educated...yes, we need more people going to college for ????
“You have to give the devil his due - Clinton was born to do this. He would have sucked as a legislator or corporate guy - his talent is for slinging the BS in front of a crowd. Might have been a decend stand-up comic if politics hadn’t worked out.”
Look into astrology...Ronald Reagan did. It’s fascinating. It’s not difficult. Just look at the “Sun Signs.” Simple.
Hillary, a Scorpio...all about power and money.
Bill Clinton and Barack Obama (Leos)...love to be on stage...orators...will forge ahead even if they’re failing....will never give up.
George Bush (Cancer) and Mitt Romney (Pisces)...notice they are not as outgoing as Paul Ryan. Paul Ryan and Ronald Reagan are Aquarians. More presidents were born under Aquarius than any others.
Just interesting...
YUP.
I don't need to smell crap to know that it stinks.
yea but you won’t be able to afford to buy the car in the first place.
Drive gas prices up double, then cut them in half and claim credit. That’s what Obama is saying about the bogus 4.5 million jobs - - just barely back to where we were under Bush.
The convention is not the only place the adoration for Clinton is happening.....unbelievable and sickening
Wasn’t that Jaunita Brodderick?
Gee Bill, I’m no big brain like you, but the laws of physics say if you double the mpg of cars, you have to make cars lighter. In order to make them lighter, you have use more plastic and lighter metals making cars more dangerous and much more expensive.
How does that help us in the so-called 99%, exactly ? It sounds like you and commie buddies are trying to rub us out.
Agreed.
Michele just gave him a dirty look.
I believe that was Juanita Broderick. But maybe that was one of his standard pick up lines.
I remember watching Clinton for 8 years and being nauseated listening to all his Bullsh_t.
How much longer will this last?
If we cut our gas prices in half, we’d be back to where we started in 2008.
