Kentucky ranks 40th out of the 50 states in average annual income.
Kentucky's problem is, we keep re-electing Mitch McConnell.
Mitch McConnell is worth over 30 million dollars and has 5 of his top campaign contributors being wall street bankers. Mitch McConnell is bought and paid for by wall street and does not care about the middle class in the United States, specifically Kentucky.
Wake up Kentucky! If you want to make some money, do not vote for Mitch McConnell !
Fucking Kentucky must be FILLED with idiot cocksuckers. How can they keep electing this piece of shit MCCONNELL. He rips off the very dipshits that vote his fairy ass in. I WANT THE FUCKING RICH TO BE TAXED EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO RAISE MINE. Right now, we are paying theirs. And all they do is tip Mcconnel and wink at him and then have secret orgies with him and his chink water buffalo wife. ( no offense to water buffalos) unless they vote GOP. If they do, then fuck water buffalos too.
FUCK YOU, MCCONNELL. YOU ARE A CORRUPT, TREASONOUS PIECE OF SHIT. THE COUNTRY IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR FUCKED UP PARTY AGENDA. YOU'RE NOT DOING YOUR JOB, WHICH IS TO PROMOTE THE GENERAL WELFARE OF THE COUNTRY. THE USA HAS GONE TO HELL BECAUSE OF SELF SEEKING SCUMBAG COCKSUCKERS LIKE YOU. YOU'RE A DISGRACEFUL EMBARRASSING LOWLIFE SCUMBAG. YOU SHOULD BE PROSECUTED FOR HOW YOU AND YOUR ASSHOLE BUDDIES HAVE FISTFUCKED THE PEOPLE. BOTH PARTIES SUCK ASS. FUCK YOU ALL. YOU ARE FUCKING TRAITORS.
Gulf War Veteran unemployment is now 20.9%. The GOP's jobs plan is just more of the same failed Bush economic policies. You know, where they ship jobs and factories overseas for shareholder profit and CEO bonuses of millions.
Whirlpool just shipped 5,000 more $17.00 an hour jobs to Mexico for $2.00 an hour and the CEO got 15 million bonus.
Boycott Whirlpool and Maytag! This is the GOP jobs plan for you and America
Remove Mitch McConnell from the picture and hang him along with John Boehner and Eric Cantor: You will see the economy growing by leaps and bounds after throwing these idiots out of politics. They are butt kissing the wealthy and enjoying their blessings (kickbacks) and screwing the ordinary people (99%). Hang them by their nuts!
Addison Mitchell McConnell, Jr. has been ranking the nation's economy in Congress. He has been an embarrassment in Congress since January 1985; moreover, he has maintained an overinflated ego in terms of stimulating the economy. No wonder he and Rand Paul are total assholes in Washington, D.C.
I'm ashamed of the great state of Kentucky over this hunk of shit. How, in Gods name can you not see through this bastard? He is KILLING us people !!! KILLING US!! In Gods name, please get this dude out of our country and make him take his Chinese treasonist wife with him. He works directly for Satan and the Koch Brothers. Pray about it. you will get your answer. This is an enemy of the almighty. And therefore an enemy of ours. Please, Kentucky. Save us all !!!
~~^~^~^~^^~^~In 2006 REPUBLICAN legislators mandated that the U.S. Postal Service(USPS) begin a 10 yr process of pre-paying all health & retirement benefits for all employees it may hire up to 75 yEArs from now! THE GOAL: To create the ILLUSION that USPS, a NON tax payer funded profit making agency, is on the verge of FINANCIAL COLLAPSE! REPUBLICANS want to BREAK THE POSTAL UNION, lay off 125,000 AMERICANS & PRIVATIZE USPS . REPUBLICAN RACKETEERING & GREED ARE DESTROYING AMERICA!
Thanks muzzy337. Finally somebody see McConnell for EXACTLY what he is. A no good worthless stack of steaming shit. A Cleveland steamer no doubt. Do any of you freaking retards ever think one thing about the fact that McConnell is married to a chink bitch who was in bushes labor department and shipped millions of jobs overseas? Now she is in porn. Look, I have nearly given up on America this little twirp McConnell is the most frequent visitor to two places. Guess what two they are. First he goe
Mr. McConnell- you are a fucking SKANK CUNT. NOBODY GIVES A FUCK ABOUT YOUR FUCKING AGENDA, YOU STUPID ASSHOLE! They care about JOBS. Jobs should be EVERYBODY'S agenda because the country is dying. You don't have to worry about Obama anymore- he's such a monumental fuck up, nobody will vote for him. GET OFF YOUR SORRY ASS AND FIX THE FUCKING COUNTRY, YOU SELF SERVING COCKSUCKER! You assholes are TRAITORS because you place your party BEFORE the country. Nobody will vote for you anymore. FUCK YOU!
It's time for the middle class to take back America. Make your way to Capitol Hill & we will not allow Congress to pass any other legislation until they pass a jobs bill. It is time for a revolt. Be there even if you have to hitchike for the REVOLT! No bills will pass until they pass a jobs bill. The middle-class pays their salaries lets remind them of it. REVOLT - September 4 be there!!!
Oh, here's another one moron: If raising taxes from the "historic lows" under the bush tax cuts "creates jobs", then it would make sense to raise taxes to 98%! Or why not 100%! Think about this for a second. I have a serious question: Who is this guy who says this crap? Also, why does a third party decide equality of results? Answer that one.
Seriously, does this guy understand Keynes at all? I'm not saying he's right or wrong, but at least get his theory right. Keynes advocated LOWER taxes in a recession, not higher. Stop quoting him and learn how to read.
I find it almost reassuring that this demagogue doesn't use any facts or evidence to support his points. For one, the Bush tax cuts raised revenue. Also, how in the world does stealing from people, presumably "the rich", make sense for creating jobs? Also, nice try on Keynesian economics. You need to actually read some Keynes.
Everybody attacking the freedom of people to buy and sell and live their life as they please has to justify their position with facts and evidence.
I'm right wing. Stop the waste and stupid-spending first. Then close tax loopholes. Then, if the US must have new revenue, get millionaires off government benefits of any kind: farm subsidies, VA, Social Security, Medicare, green energy......then we'll talk about a national sales tax to get some money from crooks/illegals.........then talk about raising taxes after those things have been taken care of.
Obama is ten times the man that any republican claims to be. Republicans should be arrested for treason! Any outsourced job should be one count of treason, just like it's illegal to take gold out of the country!!!!!! In 2010 America lost more money with tax cuts than all social programs combined! You all need to be convicted of treason! Reps and Tea Party; anyone who sends jobs out of country!
The Mitch McConnell thing is nasty. Apparently he is in cahoots with the jock brothers, Rupert Medici, and the bushes....you heard it here first. I swear by all that in me, this is mitcheys last term. The end, no offense, just saying, the end.
why should we keep granting american companies tax-breaks for their job creation in china?
Funneling american currency into a comunist, economic blackhole, doesn't seem to be helping our recovery.
cutting funds to the pentagon, is killing that who protects our wealth. It's time for those (who wanna believe that there is some magical fountain of funds going to entitlments) to wake us or move to another country.
Great info. Hey, have you all heard that Mitch McConnell spends hors on porn site downloading photos of small boys. He spends every night dry humping a Chinese water buffalo (ammonia-based) Rupert Murdock taps into drag queens phones and he too is married to a chink 40 years younger than he is. All the while they have dumbass Claude in Louisville convinced that mexicans are taking his jobs. It's the Chinese who these two dirtbags are hosing. I can only imagine the stench. Well, no offense, jus
We can no longer afford social welfare program. WE are broke. We would have defaulted on our debt long time ago if we don't print money. Solution is simple if U don't think about politics.
Raise Tax to increase revenue and apply entire amount to decreasing debt.
Send back all illegal aliens to their home country where they have their citizenship and provide the job to unemployed US citizens and legal aliens.
Mitch McConnell is just a racist bastard. His mindset is overwhelmed with blind racism. Saying no to raising taxes on the 2% wealthiest Americans? They hold more than 50% of the nations wealth. The Bush tax cuts along with two wars being fought simultaneously has led this country into complete ruin. Mr. McConnell's constituency base should wise up and throw him on the trash pile.
If we let the Bush era tax cuts expire, and enforce the corporate tax code and get rid of loopholes, it will literally force those companies and individuals to actively look for and make capital available to drop their tax bracket levels. There's 1.9 trillion in cash that the Corporations are just sitting on. And that's what happens when you cut taxes. Where's the incentive to make it work, when you can just sit and let it get interest?
@adventuremaniac Your premise works great in an ideal world where the corporate chiefs dont hand out millions and billions of that money they have into buying personal jets and bonuses. When you compare it with the 90s the bonuses were also not of the same order as now. With the government they can atleast be held accountable where they can invest in say construction projects or building projects.
@neuindeutschland Well then the question is what happened between the 90's and today that caused that shift. What regulations were removed, and can we reinstate those back, because those regulations are what keep a check/referee on the socio economic situation so that we can maintain an equitable, egalitarian, and mutually beneficial society. Human nature hasn't changed. The operating environment is what changed.
@adventuremaniac Exactly. Human nature hasnt changed. They were always greedy and with the opportunity at hand got much more greedier. Now they figured out new ways to make money like the Hedgefund and all. Then the cost of wars should not be forgotten. The radicalization of the left and the right, the partisan media influencing vry strongly the people. How many regulations were there in the first place wIth Alan greenspan being the biggest proponent of minimum regulation. Its too late
Anyway, it's interesting that the moment Bush Jr. cut taxes, was when the economy became weak. Simply because of what I wrote below. Higher taxes on the wealthy forces them to invest into business expansion/entrepreneurial ventures in order to drop their tax brackets. And expanding business = new markets to access = a need for more help = more jobs. Higher taxes, done properly, are a good thing. Lower taxes, done by Bush jr, solidified by Tea Party = 0 domestic economic expansion.
Mr. Eskow's comments are flawed. You raise taxes on the wealthy not to bring in more revenue to govt. Anyone who has bothered to examine our tax code knows that it is oriented towards entrepreneurship. You raise taxes to force the wealthy to drop their income lvls come tax time. That forces the wealthy to make capital available to business expansion, new ventures, etc. We only have to see the 90's boom to understand this. Clinton raised taxes in 93. What followed was a massive economic boom.
Senator McConnell needs to confront senator Joe Walsh who is a dead beat dad that owes his first wife and children over $100k. Where is the full faith and credit of Joe walsh ? How can Walsh or McConnell stand up and sound so honourable when walsh owes his children this money for their education and their health care. McConnell needs to cut ,cap and send walsh's salary to his wife & children for the child support he owes.
It is time these guys lived like they talk instead of fooling us.
Mitch McConnell is an embarrassment to the Irish. I lived in Kentucky awhile ago and his whole strategy like some of the few but more prominent politicians there was to keep the population poor. In another words, one could not get in a full day's work. I saw nothing in the way of a 40-hour work week, but was expected to stay part-time at a retail establishment for 7 years. I said, "Goodbye Louisville" because they were not going to make money off of my part-time head when I couldn't make a livin
~*The idea that lower corporate & individual tax rates spur job growth is a 30-year REPUBLICAN LIE. Since the implementation of the REAGAN & BUSH TAX CUTS, America has LOST MORE jobs than at any other time in its history. Not collecting a FAIR SHARE of taxes from corporations& the wealthy has spawned a SERIOUS REVENUE PROBLEM which should be a matter of NATIONAL SECURITY. On the other hand, a WORKING MIDDLE CLASS with money to spend DOES SPUR JOB GROWTH..AMERICA, REJECT THE REPUBLICAN LIE!
The Repubs should/will pay a hefty price in 2012 for holding the American economy hostage for the sake of maintaining tax breaks for the wealthiest people and companies among us. We all know wealthy people & companies are NOT reinvesting in our economy, they are putting their money in off shore accounts and wealthy businesses are going overseas for the cheap labor. Its shameful that the GOP is willing to risk the full faith & credit of the USA, to protect their wealthy friends
@thenewmike2012 I bet if the USA had a Grassroots Democracy as opposed to a Republic we wouldn't even have Republicans because big corporations wouldn't be funding legislative campaigns. It's a lot easier to bribe office seeking congressmen than 300 million voters.
@thenewmike2012 I think that if we are going to have a Republic instead of a Grassroots Democracy, we should have zero political parties and have independent office seekers. I think political parties actually contribute to the corruption.
@sbalusu94 But we cant forget the "human nature" of people. Even if we had indepent office seekers, they would have to deal with lobbyist from Oil, Energy, Housing, Education, Civis, Health Care and on and on. In the end, we would probably have the same kind of corruption.
It's very simple: raising taxes punishes and discourages economic activity. Economic activity and jobs are generated by business-people "the rich" trying to make more money. Raising their taxes will discourage their efforts. They will be thinking why should they risk their necks on new economic activities if the government's going to take away most of their profit?
@gilbet Actually lower taxes doesn't help domestic jobs. It helps corporations hire even more people overseas and that doesn't at all help the economy in America. Besides a lot of corporations already pay much less taxes than in the past. Raising taxes to be what they once were is not a new idea. Also, a lot of corporations also have too many tax deductibles which allows them to avoid paying much of even the low taxes from the Bush era.
Mitch McConnell is a RINO, a die hard liberal at heart. He is a deserter to the principles of the USA & a traitor to his constitutents.
He is divorced then married a cowardly ASIAN foreigner whom he probably got on the Internet through "Buy an Asian Wife." This fact displays his liberal and cowardly existence. Like attracts like. He is so insecure that he cannot find an American wife. It is astonishing how Kentuckyians would vote this effeminate, cowardly man into the US Senate.
The young turks were enemies of white europe. FUCK THESE QUEERS IN THE VID. They're gayer than a 2 dollar bill. I hope Greece comes back to life and invades that shithole of a country called turkey.
Taxes are good if you follow what those taxes are for. If the taxes are for establishing a healthy govt, the govt must guarantee what they are there for the wealth of every single individual in this country first. When political parties become departments for creating wars and locking down resource flow into themselves then you have to work for their enemies because democracy is hijacked. Yours and your kids' future are predictably bloody repeating bad histories. Better strike them down now.
It's funny how the democrats proclaim that they stand up for the poor and middle class yet they've stood by and allowed the Federal Reserve to create a super-rich class of bankers and who contribute little of value to society in return.
~~^^^~^^~^~^^President Obama, YOU MUST PROTECT Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Under Bush, Republicans voted 7 TIMES to raise the debt limit. It was the last 3 REPUBLICAN presidents, REAGAN, BUSH Sr. & JUNIOR that ran up the debt. ...IF America defaults WE THE PEOPLE will know who to blame. The Republican Party will be for generations to come FINISHED!... ~^~^~^~^^^^PRESIDENT OBAMA THIS IS A THRESHOLD MOMENT, STEP THROUGH!
I'm retired military. I don't make enough money to worry about somebody raising my taxes, The only concern I have about raising taxes is that it's a lot easier for rich tax payers to take their money out of the country to foreign tax shelters than it is for the people Democrats say they want to raise taxes for to collect benefit checks from those foreign tax shelters. You scare off the game what's to hunt?
Why not let taxpayers check off which politiical party in Congress they want to manage their money and let everybody pay their own bills with their own money? If Democrats want to raise taxes on Democrats to pay for underwater basket weaving instructors in New Mexico, how does that hurt Republicans? Separate checkbooks. Solved lots of family budget problems in America for decades.
@Texasjim2007 I'd be fine with that. Of course the Republicans couldn't use any of the Democrats infrastructure. And couldn't be employed by any company utilizing said infrastructure. After maybe two months of having to live like that, there would not be a Republican left in the country.
Mcconell, Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan, Boehner and Mitch mcconnell are a disgrace to America.
Dick Cheney made just one truthful statement while he was our Vice President - he made that statement in January 2004 - the statement was "DEFICITS DON'T MATTER".
I don't remember mcconnell, Boehner, cantor, ryan and other republicans in congress having any problems raising the debt ceiling 7 times during the pathetic GWB presidency.
Obama could cure cancer and mcconnell would question his motives
The republicans have no intention of raising the debt limit or passing a budget that will be passed by the senate. Soon the United States will default on its debt and leave soldiers unpaid. The world economy will collapse and the governments of all of the industrialized nations will fail and out of the ashes of the civilized world will rise a New World Order governed by a corporate hegemony. This is what the republicans have planned all along. Nothing can stop this now.
The tea party has alot of hypocrits. Many are on disability, unemployment, medicare etc. They fight against federal stimulus and federal aid /social services and yet they have the time to protest because they accept federal money.
They fight to protect the very wealthiest in this country...who are NOT creating jobs...to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. Yet these same rich pigs take huge business subsidies that come out of OUR wking class TAXES..
Tax increases are off the table, waaah, snivle snivel.. @_@ don't touch my millions!!!! Don't touch my ice cream sprinkles...! I use that tax money for prostitutes on my private yaht. I need 40 million dollars, how can you disgusting urchins expect me to cope with the stress of my government work with only 35 million dollars. Screw the country! I have stress you starving slackers can't understand! Be a good 3rd world country while I rape you all. line up and bend over for shared sacrifice...
taxing the rich motherfuckers is vital to getting our economy back on it's feet - however politicians are so corrupt, they're bought by rich corporate bastards and they let the poor suffer, while the rich go free. how the fuck are we going to get the country back on it's feet if we don't change that?
"You tax the rich and use that money to create jobs"....ok...HOW? Now dont get me wrong, fuck those rich industrialist cocksuckers and their greedy criminal buddies on wall street, but NONE of you TYT fucks have EVERY created a job nor have a clue on how to make them. Until you have a real idea..STFU
Maybe, just Maybe, reducing spending could help. But also where are those anti-war followers protesting against the US going to Libya. Are they out on the street but the media isn't showing it?
@thanatos101b 0% effective tax rate? US has some of the highest taxes in the world. The few hundred hedge fund managers, who gained too much political power pay little, but effective tax rate in US is 18% today.
But US economy can't afford any income taxes, any taxing of work and productivity must be stopped.
@romanmir01 If the US has some of the highest taxes in the world, why did GE pay 0% tax last year? Oh, and an effective corporate tax rate of 18% is far lower than most of the rest of the industrialized world.
And if you believe that last line, you are the idiot we know you are.

Are ALL politicians from the CENTRAL MID-WEST and SW totaly fucking insane or is just me? As long as these assholes keep bringing home the beloved Farm Subsidies for thier Agriculture based States they will keep getting the votes. The Republican party are just playing Christians as FOOLS and the FOOLS keep voting for them. Thats just great the Abortion issue got some play for the Evangelicals. Is that so wonderful when your un-employed, homeless or collecting SS, Medicare ect & the system fails?
Yeah, raise taxes, that will make people want to hire more people. Lets see, I have 100,000 in the bank and the goverment just to $25K of it. I know let me go hire some people.
@Bellita1 Hey dumbass, corporate taxes are paid on profit, not revenue. Besides, they are talking about raising taxes on ONLY those who make over 250K. Also besides, the govt would be taking 28K instead of 25K, so thats only 3k more. Who are you going to employ for 3K a year? Illegal immigrants?
@Bellita1 What, exactly and precisely, do you think happens to tax money? The very fact that we have a deficit is a testament to the fact that tax money is spent, and unlike international corporations, most of that money gets spent in America. Spending that much money in America creates thousands, if not millions of jobs.
@thanatos101b Really, all our tax money is spent in this country? Bullshit!!!!! How can you keep running up the debit. How much credit card debit do you have? Why don't you go max out all of your credit cards on a shopping spree and they see how easy it is to pay them off. Then I will tell you every week you need to charge more. When does it end?
@Bellita1 Its a little different than what you believe.
Deficit spending (when done correctly) grows the economy. That generates more tax revenue. As long as the increase in tax revenue always exceeds the increase in the interest on the National Debt, you never have to pay off the debt, which is what the banks want. Why? Because it is a steady, guaranteed paycheck for them in the biggest way possible and it gives them leverage over the government.
@cynisturb It isn't what I believe. You said it yourself, "When Done Correctly". Is it being done correctly? HELL NO. When you hit 14 Trillion, I don't want to gamble on "As Long As increase in tax revenue always exceeds the interest". Some day it won't. It is like saying, I don't want home owners insurance because as long as my house doesn't burn down everything will be fine.
@Bellita1 Well then you have to take the power away from the banks. Good luck with that, Ace! Besides, its not much of a gamble. The fed and the banks will make sure we can keep doing it. Why? Because that's how they get bigger bonuses.
@Bellita1 Taxes create jobs both directly and indirectly. Where do teachers' paychecks come from? Cops'? firefighters'? City inspectors'? Who pays for road construction and repair? Where does the money come from to build bridges? Shall I continue?
@cynisturb Then go put everything on your charge card. Run up $150K on your credit card, since it is that easy. Where did I say taxes don't create jobs. Our Country has a 14 TRILLION dollar Debit. You could take all of the money from the top 5% of the country and leave them with ZERO money and it won't pay off the debt. What is your solution?
@Bellita1 There are two solutions. One pays off the debt and prevents any new debt from being created. Banks won't allow that and have the power to prevent that from happening. The other involves growing the economy at a higher rate than what is necessary to pay the interest on the debt. That means the debt will never be paid off. As long as the interest payments never exceed 20% of the GDP, we're fine.
@Bellita1 Neither are hopeless. I prefer the first one because it would allow the gvt to eliminate all taxes for Americans while allowing for free healthcare and education for everyone in the US. The other doesn't because it would be paid for by taxes. The second solution allows us to have deficits every year forever. You end up having to increase the debt in order to keep the economy growing. That in turn increases tax revenue which pays for the additional interest on the debt. Problem solved!
@Bellita1 Bullshit! That is not what the Tea Party is about! That may be what most of the well informed people in the Tea Party is about but the "leaders" in the Tea Party have made it clear that they are all about using you to get more republicans elected.
@cynisturb Sorry, that is what the Tea Party is about. It has always been about fiscal responsibility. Unfortunately the left and the media go out of their way to call it a racist organiztion which simply isn't true. The tea party has gone up against Republicans. Yes the Tea Party is a conservative organization and most vote Republican but if the Republican candidate doesn't support fiscal responsibility, then they are a target.
@Bellita1 You think that is what the tea party is all about but you are being manipulated by your leaders into supporting an ideology that has no hope of accomplishing what you believe the goal is. What your goal is not the goal of the leaders of the tea party. I've had this argument with some locals here in Detroit that can't understand why I oppose the tea party yet believe in most of the same things.
@cynisturb The Tea Party doesn't have any real leaders. The group has people it likes and the media constanty tries to tie it with racists and corporate or social interests. The tea party just wants fiscal responsibility. At least that is what I want. I will vote against anyone that doesn't have the economy as it's number one priority. Democrats don't want to make any budget cuts and they don't want to lower the debit, neither do Republicans.
@Bellita1 Well there's your problem right there. You vote against people. How about getting somebody to vote FOR. If all we do is keep voting against people, the two party system will never change. So stop voting for republicans. The "tea party" needs to vote for Tea Party candidates instead of primarying republicans. Progressives, like myself, need to do the same with Dems.
@cynisturb The only party attacked by the media more than the Republican party is the Tea Party. I will vote for the candidate that has the best solutions for fiscal responsibility. The tea party will support democrats if they are fiscal conservatives.
@Bellita1 In what universe do you live in? The media never attacks the Republican Party, and it coddles the Tea Party. How many media outlets, for example, reported on the instant and immediate corruption of Rand Paul after he received his nomination? Fact is, that the Tea Party is so overtly racist, so overtly hypocritical, that even our conservatively biased, useless media can't help but show that's exactly what they are.
@thanatos101b You are one insane liberal. It is so obvious the national media hates Republicans. Please tell me about Rand Paul's corruption. Let me guess it is something you liberals are claiming based on NOTHING.
How is the Tea Party Racist. I haven't heard them make one racial comment. How is fiscal responsiblity Racist?
@Bellita1 Really? I'm insane? If it is so obvious, then you should have many, many, many examples of say, the national media covering the anti-Iraq war protests more than they covered the Tea Party Protests. As far as Rand Paul's corruption, please explain why Rand Paul went from pro-legalization of drugs to anti-legalization of drugs, anti-war to pro-war right after winning the Republican nomination? Oh, and then there's the fact that he took donations from the exact people he said he wouldn't.
@thanatos101b Yes you are completely insane if you think the mainstream media is pro Republican. They gave Obama a cake walk in the election. They did everything they could to attack McCain. I saw plenty of coverage of the anti-Iraq war protesters every night on my TV. Rand Paul isn't my congressmen and I don't know a lot about him. How is that corruption?
@Bellita1 And they tried to give McCain a cake walk election. At least until he chose Sarah Palin as his VP, and even then they were absolutely infatuated with her... until she proved so stupid and belligerent that even the media couldn't deny it anymore. If you actually watch the entirety of her first Kattie Couric interview, you can see how they tried to make a love note to her, but they just couldn't.
@thanatos101b Once again you prove you are insane. Did you see McCain on the View? Whoopi, asked him if he wanted to bring back Slavery. The national media made such a big fuss over the cost of the Republican's wardrobe at the convention. The media reports every thing sarah does. If she has any slipups they are all over it but when Biden Does it, they laugh it off. Everyone in the world thought Katie Attacked Sarah. She HATES Sarah.
@Bellita1 That's because Sarah Palin does everything she can to ensure that the media hangs on her every word. It's how she managed to make millions. And how hilarious is it that you actually think Couric, throwing Palin the softest of softball questions like, "what newspapers or magazines do you read" was attacking her. Compare that interview with Jon Stewart's interview of Obama, and you will see the massive difference. You need to be less foolish.
@thanatos101b Really? What does Palin do to ensure they hang on her every word? The follow her around and won't leave her alone so they can report on any minor mistake. They attack her daughters. How about Diane Saywer interviewing Republicans and making ugly faces at them, then when the Demmies come on she gives them hugs and kisses.
@Bellita1 Sarah Palin has gotten into 88 celebrity feuds since the 2008 elections. She has appeared in her own reality show, her daughter has appeared on a reality show. She had a failed news-talk show on Fox and after that became a paid commentator. Everything she does is geared for one singular goal: making publicity for herself.
And how funny is it that your example of a VICIOUS ATTACK on Republicans is your perception that Diane Saywer's face is ugly!
@thanatos101b John Stewarts ENTIRE show is about making fun of Republicans. He would suck Obama's dick if he let him. Sarah has been in 88 feudes because they attack her. Who's fault is that? She had a reality show about her State, and the media was following her every move way before then. The demmies have called Bristol a Whore for getting pregnant when they applaude other teenagers for doing the same thing. Elliot Spizer has had a failed news show on CNN. Can't you handle the TRUTH?
@Bellita1 Really? Then why, when Obama was on his show, did Jon Stewart ask him all the hard questions that no one else has? Why, it's Sarah's fault. Especially since she doesn't JUST respond to attacks. She blamed her mistakes on her on staffers (in her book), she went after NPR over something unrelated to her, she attacked Scott Brown out of left field, she started a feud with the US Export/Import Bank while getting her facts wrong...
@thanatos101b Why is Steward loved by Demmies and hated by Republicans? Why do the Celebs need to attack her and her children? She has a right to stand up for herself. I am glad she does. I hope she runs with Bachmann in 2012. It will show the world just how much the Demmies don't value women.
@Bellita1 Really? Please show that Democratic politicians love (in those terms) Jon Stewart? Of course Repugnants hate him, he's the only reporter in America who does actual journalism and calls them out when they lie. Why does Sarah Palin feel the need to be rude and insult Oliver Stone, and then make a big deal out of it to the media, for literally no reason?
Oh, and Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann poll terribly with female voters.
@thanatos101b Please show me how Republican Politicians Love Fox News. I didn't know Palin was rude to Oliver Stone but I am glad she is. He is a piece of shit that is friends with Hugo Chavez.
I am sure Bachmann Palin does poll terribly, since most women are democrats. It just shows that Demmies are Misogynsts.
@Bellita1 Okay, Sarah Palin's advice to Christine O'Donnal, "speak through Fox News." I think the fact that they openly admit Fox is nothing more than a mouthpiece for them is more than enough proof they love it. Not to mention that Roger Ailes, president of Fox News, is a former Republican media consultant.
Wait, so most women are Democrats, therefore the Democrats are misogynists? Do you even think about what you type?
@thanatos101b They are just like MSNBC. No Demmies are misognists because they won't vote for Bachmann / Palin. Demmies said all blacks should vote for Obama or they are uncle toms. Then using the demmies logic, they are misogynists.
@Bellita1 No they are not. MSNBC was not created to be a Democratic mouthpiece, MSNBC is not run by a former Democratic media consultant, no memos have surfaced about MSNBC requireing its anchors to use Democratic talking points, MSNBC did not have almost all the Democratic nominees for president on its payroll, like Fox has with the Republicans.
@thanatos101b Memos haven't surfaced because Republicans aren't as obsessed with MSNBC as the Demmies are with Fox. More Demmies watch Fox than Republicans. Demmies complain about Fox more than Republicans compalin about MSNBC. Please list all the republicans on MSNBC's payroll. Thanks for the blank list.
@Bellita1 Oh look! I'll show once more you are horribly uninformed. Pat Buchanan, former Republican presidential candidate, is a paid commentator on MSNBC.
@Bellita1 And wow, that's both a racist, and a misogynistic statement. You actually think that all those African-American people voted for Obama just because of race, and are upset because women won't vote for someone just because that person happens to be a woman? How incredibly offensive. Just how many black people vote for Alan Keyes? No, black people voted for Obama because he supported their best interests. Women don't support Bachmann and Plain because they don't have their best interests.
@thanatos101b Since I heard interview of Black people being interviews and they asked them If they like Obama's support of the Iraq war and they said Yes and then they ask if they like his running mate sarah palin and they said yes. It told me they know nothing about him and are voting for him because he is black. The voted for him because he is democrate and more people came out to vote because he is black. Just a fact
@Bellita1 Wow, just wow. The sheer racism in this post is amazing. There's really no other way to characterize it. Thank you for calling black people stupid... apparently based on watching one (heavily-edited) interview.
@thanatos101b How is anything I said racist? Not all black people didn't know his policies. I never said that. I heard it on Howard Stern, who voted for Obama. He interviewed some blacks in Harlem and that is what they said. I don't know how repeating something I heard is racist but everything his racist to you demmies. How's the weather? "THATS RACIST".
@Bellita1 Uhh, every single time I have stated something you said was racist, I have explained to you why it is racist. I'll go over it again, I say, "all those African-American people voted for Obama." Note the word "all." You say, "they know nothing about him and are voting for him because he is black." So yes, you were stating "all black people didn't know his policies." That was the question that was posed to you, and you failed entirely to qualify your response.
@thanatos101b First the word "all" doesn't mean "Every" big difference. The word "They" refers to people specific to the conversation. So I have showed you how I Never used the word "All" or "Every" and what I said isn't racist. You however crusified all christians in your Harry Potter comment. But I forgot, Demmies hate christians and will bash them at every chance but will NEVER say a word about the peaceful Muslims.
@Bellita1 Yes, yes it does. "All" means "every" it's right there in the dictionary. And "they" refers to "all black people who voted for Obama." You didn't have to use the word "all" because I used the word "all" so your use of "they" refers to my "all." You really don't want to get into a linguistics or grammar discussion with me.
Oh, and no, I didn't. I said, "Christians who accuse Harry Potter" which refers only to Christians performing that specific action.
@thanatos101b No it doesn't. All the black people that voted for Obama because he is black does not mean all black people voted for obama because he is black. Big difference. Basicly, you used the word all and I didn't so it looks like you think all black people are the same where as I think that they have differences. So technically you are a racist. You use the Word "Christians" which is a broad term and can encompass all christians. You shold have said "Only the specific Christians".
@Bellita1 I really can't believe after how badly it's worked out for you up to this point, you are still trying to argue this with me. Sorry, darling, that wasn't a distinction that I made, nor that you made. And now you are goofing up again. That sentence started with "you actually think," so I was not commenting on my own thoughts, but rather yours. When I say "you" it does not refer to "me."
@thanatos101b It hasn't worked out badly for me at all. You are trying to call me a racist and I never used the word "all". Like I said the word racist is the first card you guys use in an argument. You call the tea party racist because they want fiscal reform and don't have a stated position on any other topic. That is all you have. Then I used your own words against you by what you said about christians. I didn't answer your question correctly because I wasn't talking about all blacks.
@Bellita1 You just keep digging that hole deeper and deeper don't you? You didn't have to say all, because you were directly responding to me, and I said all.
@Bellita1 Now let's get into some other stupidity. The word "Christians" is a broad term, hence why I immediately and completely narrowed it down to just those Christians who think Harry Potter is a Satanic influence on their children. Please explain to me how, linguistically, it is possible that Christians who don't accuse Harry Potter of being occult recruitment, could accuse Harry Potter of being occult recruitment? It's an impossibility.
@thanatos101b My point is, when ever a Republican speaks, if they aren't extremely careful, even then it doesn't matter, and make sure the are speaking of a specific group of people, democrats automatically assume they are speaking about the entire group. I just want you to be extemely careful, an make sure you are only speaking of the few christians that think Harry Potter is part of the occult recruitment.
@Bellita1 That's just the nature of language. When you say, "black people" you mean "all black people" unless you say "some black people." When you say "black people who drive Dodges" you aren't referring to "black people who drive Hummers" because "black people who drive Hummers" are not "black people who drive Dodges."
@thanatos101b I could have said black people who drive dodges and you would have still called me a racist because that is the first card out of a democrats deck. You would have found the one black guy that drives a dodge that doesn't fit the senario and called me racist. You also, didn't clarify that it is an extremely small minority of christians that beleive harry potter is a recruiting tool for the occult. So you are RACIST
@Bellita1 Speaking of which, please prove all Democrats "hate Christians and will bash them at every chance." Or just admit you got caught lying...again.
@thanatos101b I didn't say all Democrats. I said Democrats which means the "The Democrats that Hate Christians". I should have said Most because I am sure it is most but I don't have a pole to prove it.
@Bellita1 Yes, and "Democrats" refers to all Democrats, unless you use some sort of qualifier in front of it. Technically it means all members of the Democratic Party, but I generally let it slide to mean just Democratic politicians.
Oh, and just in case you are curious, 71% of Democrats are some form of Christian (specifically Catholic, Evangelical Protestant, or Mainline Protestant).
@thanatos101b That may be a statistically accurate number but like everything, it doesn't mean the practice the religion or even give a crap about it. I could careless if people are Christian, muslim, jewish or anything, but it does seem like the democrats go after christians more than the other religions.

If we let the Bush era tax cuts expire, and enforce the corporate tax code and get rid of loopholes, it will literally force those companies and individuals to actively look for and make capital available to drop their tax bracket levels.

Anyway, it's interesting that the moment Bush Jr. cut taxes, was when the economy became weak. Simply because of what I wrote below. Higher taxes on the wealthy forces them to invest into business expansion/entrepreneurial ventures in order to drop their tax brackets. And expanding business = new markets to access = a need for more help = more jobs. Higher taxes, done properly, are a good thing. Lower taxes, done by Bush jr, solidified by Tea Party = 0 domestic economic expansion.
adventuremaniac 6 months ago
Mr. Eskow's comments are flawed. You raise taxes on the wealthy not to bring in more revenue to govt. Anyone who has bothered to examine our tax code knows that it is oriented towards entrepreneurship. You raise taxes to force the wealthy to drop their income lvls come tax time. That forces the wealthy to make capital available to business expansion, new ventures, etc. We only have to see the 90's boom to understand this. Clinton raised taxes in 93. What followed was a massive economic boom.

Here is what you do not do in an economic crisis:
You do NOT raise taxes.
You do NOT spend money on government projects.
You do NOT print money.
You do NOT borrow.
What you do:
1. You get rid of 99% of government spending. You stop wars and cut 99% of military. You stop SS checks and you stop Medicare checks.
2. You cut taxes on work. All income taxes go to 0. So do corporate taxes. So do payroll taxes.
3. You get rid of gov't regulations. No more minimum wage
4. You cut subsidies to 0

@thanatos101b 0% effective tax rate? US has some of the highest taxes in the world. The few hundred hedge fund managers, who gained too much political power pay little, but effective tax rate in US is 18% today.
But US economy can't afford any income taxes, any taxing of work and productivity must be stopped.
romanmir01 7 months ago
@romanmir01 If the US has some of the highest taxes in the world, why did GE pay 0% tax last year? Oh, and an effective corporate tax rate of 18% is far lower than most of the rest of the industrialized world.

@Bellita1 Hey dumbass, corporate taxes are paid on profit, not revenue. Besides, they are talking about raising taxes on ONLY those who make over 250K. Also besides, the govt would be taking 28K instead of 25K, so thats only 3k more. Who are you going to employ for 3K a year? Illegal immigrants?

@cynisturb I know that taxes are paid on profit. How do taxes create jobs?
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 What, exactly and precisely, do you think happens to tax money? The very fact that we have a deficit is a testament to the fact that tax money is spent, and unlike international corporations, most of that money gets spent in America. Spending that much money in America creates thousands, if not millions of jobs.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Really, all our tax money is spent in this country? Bullshit!!!!! How can you keep running up the debit. How much credit card debit do you have? Why don't you go max out all of your credit cards on a shopping spree and they see how easy it is to pay them off. Then I will tell you every week you need to charge more. When does it end?
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Its a little different than what you believe.
Deficit spending (when done correctly) grows the economy. That generates more tax revenue. As long as the increase in tax revenue always exceeds the increase in the interest on the National Debt, you never have to pay off the debt, which is what the banks want. Why? Because it is a steady, guaranteed paycheck for them in the biggest way possible and it gives them leverage over the government.
cynisturb 7 months ago
@cynisturb It isn't what I believe. You said it yourself, "When Done Correctly". Is it being done correctly? HELL NO. When you hit 14 Trillion, I don't want to gamble on "As Long As increase in tax revenue always exceeds the interest". Some day it won't. It is like saying, I don't want home owners insurance because as long as my house doesn't burn down everything will be fine.

@cynisturb Then go put everything on your charge card. Run up $150K on your credit card, since it is that easy. Where did I say taxes don't create jobs. Our Country has a 14 TRILLION dollar Debit. You could take all of the money from the top 5% of the country and leave them with ZERO money and it won't pay off the debt. What is your solution?
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 There are two solutions. One pays off the debt and prevents any new debt from being created. Banks won't allow that and have the power to prevent that from happening. The other involves growing the economy at a higher rate than what is necessary to pay the interest on the debt. That means the debt will never be paid off. As long as the interest payments never exceed 20% of the GDP, we're fine.
cynisturb 7 months ago
@cynisturb So you just presented 2 hopless situations. Now you know why we have the "Tea Party".
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Neither are hopeless. I prefer the first one because it would allow the gvt to eliminate all taxes for Americans while allowing for free healthcare and education for everyone in the US. The other doesn't because it would be paid for by taxes. The second solution allows us to have deficits every year forever. You end up having to increase the debt in order to keep the economy growing. That in turn increases tax revenue which pays for the additional interest on the debt. Problem solved!
cynisturb 7 months ago
@cynisturb I like #1 too but you said Banks won't allow it and have the power to prevent it. That is what the Tea Party is about.

@Bellita1 Bullshit! That is not what the Tea Party is about! That may be what most of the well informed people in the Tea Party is about but the "leaders" in the Tea Party have made it clear that they are all about using you to get more republicans elected.
cynisturb 7 months ago
@cynisturb Sorry, that is what the Tea Party is about. It has always been about fiscal responsibility. Unfortunately the left and the media go out of their way to call it a racist organiztion which simply isn't true. The tea party has gone up against Republicans. Yes the Tea Party is a conservative organization and most vote Republican but if the Republican candidate doesn't support fiscal responsibility, then they are a target.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 You think that is what the tea party is all about but you are being manipulated by your leaders into supporting an ideology that has no hope of accomplishing what you believe the goal is. What your goal is not the goal of the leaders of the tea party. I've had this argument with some locals here in Detroit that can't understand why I oppose the tea party yet believe in most of the same things.
cynisturb 7 months ago
@cynisturb The Tea Party doesn't have any real leaders. The group has people it likes and the media constanty tries to tie it with racists and corporate or social interests. The tea party just wants fiscal responsibility. At least that is what I want. I will vote against anyone that doesn't have the economy as it's number one priority. Democrats don't want to make any budget cuts and they don't want to lower the debit, neither do Republicans.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Well there's your problem right there. You vote against people. How about getting somebody to vote FOR. If all we do is keep voting against people, the two party system will never change. So stop voting for republicans. The "tea party" needs to vote for Tea Party candidates instead of primarying republicans. Progressives, like myself, need to do the same with Dems.
cynisturb 7 months ago
@cynisturb The only party attacked by the media more than the Republican party is the Tea Party. I will vote for the candidate that has the best solutions for fiscal responsibility. The tea party will support democrats if they are fiscal conservatives.

@Bellita1 In what universe do you live in? The media never attacks the Republican Party, and it coddles the Tea Party. How many media outlets, for example, reported on the instant and immediate corruption of Rand Paul after he received his nomination?

@Bellita1 Really? I'm insane? If it is so obvious, then you should have many, many, many examples of say, the national media covering the anti-Iraq war protests more than they covered the Tea Party Protests. As far as Rand Paul's corruption, please explain why Rand Paul went from pro-legalization of drugs to anti-legalization of drugs, anti-war to pro-war right after winning the Republican nomination? Oh, and then there's the fact that he took donations from the exact people he said he wouldn't.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Yes you are completely insane if you think the mainstream media is pro Republican. They gave Obama a cake walk in the election. They did everything they could to attack McCain. I saw plenty of coverage of the anti-Iraq war protesters every night on my TV. Rand Paul isn't my congressmen and I don't know a lot about him. How is that corruption?
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 And they tried to give McCain a cake walk election. At least until he chose Sarah Palin as his VP, and even then they were absolutely infatuated with her... until she proved so stupid and belligerent that even the media couldn't deny it anymore. If you actually watch the entirety of her first Kattie Couric interview, you can see how they tried to make a love note to her, but they just couldn't.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Once again you prove you are insane. Did you see McCain on the View? Whoopi, asked him if he wanted to bring back Slavery. The national media made such a big fuss over the cost of the Republican's wardrobe at the convention. The media reports every thing sarah does. If she has any slipups they are all over it but when Biden Does it, they laugh it off. Everyone in the world thought Katie Attacked Sarah. She HATES Sarah.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 That's because Sarah Palin does everything she can to ensure that the media hangs on her every word. It's how she managed to make millions. And how hilarious is it that you actually think Couric, throwing Palin the softest of softball questions like, "what newspapers or magazines do you read" was attacking her. Compare that interview with Jon Stewart's interview of Obama, and you will see the massive difference. You need to be less foolish.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Really? What does Palin do to ensure they hang on her every word? The follow her around and won't leave her alone so they can report on any minor mistake. They attack her daughters. How about Diane Saywer interviewing Republicans and making ugly faces at them, then when the Demmies come on she gives them hugs and kisses.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Sarah Palin has gotten into 88 celebrity feuds since the 2008 elections. She has appeared in her own reality show, her daughter has appeared on a reality show. She had a failed news-talk show on Fox and after that became a paid commentator. Everything she does is geared for one singular goal: making publicity for herself.
And how funny is it that your example of a VICIOUS ATTACK on Republicans is your perception that Diane Saywer's face is ugly!
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b John Stewarts ENTIRE show is about making fun of Republicans. He would suck Obama's dick if he let him. Sarah has been in 88 feudes because they attack her. Who's fault is that? She had a reality show about her State, and the media was following her every move way before then. The demmies have called Bristol a Whore for getting pregnant when they applaude other teenagers for doing the same thing. Elliot Spizer has had a failed news show on CNN. Can't you handle the TRUTH?
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Really? Then why, when Obama was on his show, did Jon Stewart ask him all the hard questions that no one else has? Why, it's Sarah's fault. Especially since she doesn't JUST respond to attacks. She blamed her mistakes on her on staffers (in her book), she went after NPR over something unrelated to her, she attacked Scott Brown out of left field, she started a feud with the US Export/Import Bank while getting her facts wrong...
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Why is Steward loved by Demmies and hated by Republicans? Why do the Celebs need to attack her and her children? She has a right to stand up for herself. I am glad she does. I hope she runs with Bachmann in 2012. It will show the world just how much the Demmies don't value women.

@Bellita1 Really? Please show that Democratic politicians love (in those terms) Jon Stewart? Of course Repugnants hate him, he's the only reporter in America who does actual journalism and calls them out when they lie. Why does Sarah Palin feel the need to be rude and insult Oliver Stone, and then make a big deal out of it to the media, for literally no reason?
Oh, and Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann poll terribly with female voters.

@thanatos101b Please show me how Republican Politicians Love Fox News. I didn't know Palin was rude to Oliver Stone but I am glad she is. He is a piece of shit that is friends with Hugo Chavez.
I am sure Bachmann Palin does poll terribly, since most women are democrats. It just shows that Demmies are Misogynsts.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Okay, Sarah Palin's advice to Christine O'Donnal, "speak through Fox News." I think the fact that they openly admit Fox is nothing more than a mouthpiece for them is more than enough proof they love it. Not to mention that Roger Ailes, president of Fox News, is a former Republican media consultant.
Wait, so most women are Democrats, therefore the Democrats are misogynists? Do you even think about what you type?
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b They are just like MSNBC. No Demmies are misognists because they won't vote for Bachmann / Palin. Demmies said all blacks should vote for Obama or they are uncle toms. Then using the demmies logic, they are misogynists.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 No they are not. MSNBC was not created to be a Democratic mouthpiece, MSNBC is not run by a former Democratic media consultant, no memos have surfaced about MSNBC requireing its anchors to use Democratic talking points, MSNBC did not have almost all the Democratic nominees for president on its payroll, like Fox has with the Republicans.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Memos haven't surfaced because Republicans aren't as obsessed with MSNBC as the Demmies are with Fox. More Demmies watch Fox than Republicans. Demmies complain about Fox more than Republicans compalin about MSNBC. Please list all the republicans on MSNBC's payroll. Thanks for the blank list.

@Bellita1 And wow, that's both a racist, and a misogynistic statement. You actually think that all those African-American people voted for Obama just because of race, and are upset because women won't vote for someone just because that person happens to be a woman? How incredibly offensive. Just how many black people vote for Alan Keyes? No, black people voted for Obama because he supported their best interests. Women don't support Bachmann and Plain because they don't have their best interests.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b Since I heard interview of Black people being interviews and they asked them If they like Obama's support of the Iraq war and they said Yes and then they ask if they like his running mate sarah palin and they said yes. It told me they know nothing about him and are voting for him because he is black. The voted for him because he is democrate and more people came out to vote because he is black. Just a fact

@thanatos101b How is anything I said racist? Not all black people didn't know his policies. I never said that. I heard it on Howard Stern, who voted for Obama. He interviewed some blacks in Harlem and that is what they said. I don't know how repeating something I heard is racist but everything his racist to you demmies. How's the weather? "THATS RACIST".
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Uhh, every single time I have stated something you said was racist, I have explained to you why it is racist. I'll go over it again, I say, "all those African-American people voted for Obama." Note the word "all." You say, "they know nothing about him and are voting for him because he is black." So yes, you were stating "all black people didn't know his policies." That was the question that was posed to you, and you failed entirely to qualify your response.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b First the word "all" doesn't mean "Every" big difference. The word "They" refers to people specific to the conversation. So I have showed you how I Never used the word "All" or "Every" and what I said isn't racist. You however crusified all christians in your Harry Potter comment. But I forgot, Demmies hate christians and will bash them at every chance but will NEVER say a word about the peaceful Muslims.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 Yes, yes it does. "All" means "every" it's right there in the dictionary. And "they" refers to "all black people who voted for Obama." You didn't have to use the word "all" because I used the word "all" so your use of "they" refers to my "all." You really don't want to get into a linguistics or grammar discussion with me.
Oh, and no, I didn't. I said, "Christians who accuse Harry Potter" which refers only to Christians performing that specific action.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b No it doesn't. All the black people that voted for Obama because he is black does not mean all black people voted for obama because he is black. Big difference. Basicly, you used the word all and I didn't so it looks like you think all black people are the same where as I think that they have differences. So technically you are a racist. You use the Word "Christians" which is a broad term and can encompass all christians. You shold have said "Only the specific Christians".
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 I really can't believe after how badly it's worked out for you up to this point, you are still trying to argue this with me. Sorry, darling, that wasn't a distinction that I made, nor that you made. And now you are goofing up again. That sentence started with "you actually think," so I was not commenting on my own thoughts, but rather yours. When I say "you" it does not refer to "me."
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b It hasn't worked out badly for me at all. You are trying to call me a racist and I never used the word "all". Like I said the word racist is the first card you guys use in an argument. You call the tea party racist because they want fiscal reform and don't have a stated position on any other topic. That is all you have. Then I used your own words against you by what you said about christians. I didn't answer your question correctly because I wasn't talking about all blacks.

@Bellita1 Now let's get into some other stupidity. The word "Christians" is a broad term, hence why I immediately and completely narrowed it down to just those Christians who think Harry Potter is a Satanic influence on their children. Please explain to me how, linguistically, it is possible that Christians who don't accuse Harry Potter of being occult recruitment, could accuse Harry Potter of being occult recruitment? It's an impossibility.
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b My point is, when ever a Republican speaks, if they aren't extremely careful, even then it doesn't matter, and make sure the are speaking of a specific group of people, democrats automatically assume they are speaking about the entire group. I just want you to be extemely careful, an make sure you are only speaking of the few christians that think Harry Potter is part of the occult recruitment.
Bellita1 7 months ago
@Bellita1 That's just the nature of language. When you say, "black people" you mean "all black people" unless you say "some black people." When you say "black people who drive Dodges" you aren't referring to "black people who drive Hummers" because "black people who drive Hummers" are not "black people who drive Dodges."
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b I could have said black people who drive dodges and you would have still called me a racist because that is the first card out of a democrats deck. You would have found the one black guy that drives a dodge that doesn't fit the senario and called me racist. You also, didn't clarify that it is an extremely small minority of christians that beleive harry potter is a recruiting tool for the occult. So you are RACIST

@Bellita1 Yes, and "Democrats" refers to all Democrats, unless you use some sort of qualifier in front of it. Technically it means all members of the Democratic Party, but I generally let it slide to mean just Democratic politicians.
Oh, and just in case you are curious, 71% of Democrats are some form of Christian (specifically Catholic, Evangelical Protestant, or Mainline Protestant).
thanatos101b 7 months ago
@thanatos101b That may be a statistically accurate number but like everything, it doesn't mean the practice the religion or even give a crap about it.
