  • SEE: "Sarah Palin Hand Notes Controversy" MUST SEE!!!

  • socialism hahhaha

  • Sarahs brain is smarter than her mouth-that's why she talks stupid!

  • I love bush! As long as it's neatly trimmed...

  • OPRA WENT STUPID AND LOST WHITIE

  • even though I have seen it a thousand times it is still hard to believe how dumb some of u people are that u know nothing about things like the patriot Act and u still defend that moron G W Bush

  • @xadam2dudex - ok, genius.... name an innocent whose rights were violated by the PATRIOT act. Not in theory, in actual reality. Describe this violation and why it is unique to the PATRIOT act.

    Extra credit : explain why Obama has not repealed it.

  • that was funny... "hit you with a chair"

  • watch Oprah and her claims of being the newest christ?......on YouTube video:.....Church Of Oprah #3

  • Oprah loves Obama and his fascist party

  • Poor thing ashstone! You are just as terrified as one could be aren't you! Don't worry we will not treat you the way you have treated us in your very short democratic run. It will all be over soon and you can troll on back to your liberal shanty and think of more lies to tell the next time the democrats are holding congress. If they are ever allowed in there again after the way they have completely screwed everything up now. Obama makes bush look smart!!! ROFLMAO@the weakness!

  • This "heads up," is a laughable joke. Outside of attacking other Americans what value does it hold? None. That seems to be the norm these days with democrats/liberals...offer nothing but act like we are changing the world. Not one of you can or will present any real facts when debating, you sling propaganda and lies and you actually state that those who actually know what they are talking about are wrong and your made up bull crap is right. You lie to yourself and that alone warrants rejection!

  • Just so you LIBERALS are aware, most of us here used to be liberals and democrats ourselves until recently. It's like a whole new evil breed of liberal has been born. Liberal use to mean supporting others rights to choose, but now it means being as hateful, arrogant, annoying, selfish, blinded and disrespectful as possible. The truth is, many of us are now becoming conservatives behind the actions of what use to be our liberal family cause we don't want anything to do with this evil. Truth Hurts

  • Huh? Selfish non-profit insurance for all Americans? Not torturing criminals and actually following the constitution and giving them a trial is hateful and arrogant?

    Angry, what policy decisions do agree with that Sarah Palin has made?

    When I voted for Obama, I knew his stance, I wanted credit card reform, universal healthcare, end to wars, and closing of Gitmo, and govt transparency. He is doing exactly what he said he would do.

    I don't call R's evil, simply misinformed or uneducated.

  • If I were a Democrat I too would be worried about Sarah Palin and her ability to reverse the damage the democratic party has caused. I would be worried by the fact she operates with extreme honesty and integrity. I would be worried she could and will bring this economy back quickly and she will actually fix the HC problems in such a way that ALL Americans will be pleased. Yeah, I can see where you liberal democrats would be very very worried!

    Sarah Palin represents REAL CHANGE IN AMERICA!

  • Stop the lies and work together yet you are insulting liberals? You will be sorely disappointed if you think Palin has the motivation or ability to run for any future office. She is about selling books and making money. Completely out of her league with little to no knowledge of history, politics, or government.  Watch all the MSNBC spin shows, they want her to run! Just like R's wanted Hillary to run. Did you even look at the financial mess she left Wasilla in? Read Thomas Paine, Jefferson etc

  • ashstone503, I'm not the one who is freaking out over an innocent housewife from Alaska. The elections are three years away and for some reason you people are acting like your life depends on her failure. Each of you say the same thing, the only reason we even look in her direction is because she's fun to watch, yet you sling insults not only about her but her children. You people have made comments about her mentally retarded child stating she should have aborted him..you're sick!

  • Dear Angry, I said nothing of the sort. Please don't group me with the liberal douches that stoop to that level and I won't group you with conservative dipshits equating Medicare for all as Nazism and Obama for Hitler. There is garbage on both sides of the aisle. She only fun to watch because it is amazing how stupid people really are and how low their expectations have become of their leaders. No I don't want a hockey mom to be president, I want someone smarter than me to be president!

  • This is the inherent difference in mine and your way of thinking. I respect those who have worked hard to help me throughout my life and most were conservatives. I will not call my family and friends names simply because some black guy demands I do. I have taken the time to research the facts while you liberals continue to spew your garbage. You will never be respected this way, it's the black way, demand respect!!! Respect is earned not deserved and when you learn that, you'll get respect!

  • You are the one insulting me dude. So you have hardly shown respect. Again, get a life.

  • Really, what economic experience does she have? Have you checked her record? Drill baby drill is not an answer. The problem is FAR more complicated. Jesus, if you want a R woman with a brain, look at Kay Bailey Hutchinson for Christs sake. PALIN IS A JOKE! She had 20 months more experience in govt than my own father, and I don't think he is qualified for VP.

  • ashstone503 you are a moron!!! like the rest of your weak ass liberal pukes! For starters you have been caught in yet another lie, yep you're definitely liberal. You claim you like watching Sarah make an ass of herself yet your questions all relate to the election, you know the one thats only 3 years away!!! The thing that makes you look even more moronish is the fact Sarah has not even stated she is running yet...ROFL!

    BTW,This video is the lamest thing I've ever seen, no creativity at ALL!

  • Then shut the fuck up and quit talking to me!

    It is obvious you have nothing better to do. If she is so great, then you don't need to defend her. Your the one trying prove her awesomeness. Goodbye Angry...

  • Angry studio engineer - your ignorant neocon bullshit is pathetic. Any one who thinks Palin is noble or ready for national leadership is a completely deluded retard.

  • Democrats = Sexist, Racist, Freedom Haters!

    If you like being tagged as a true racist then continue on as you are. Just remember, what is done in darkness will always eventually come into the light. The people of America are almost there now but soon they will clearly see the hatred being pushed by the democrats and we will place them back on the shelf as they have been for most of the history of this great nation. Also, STOP likening yourselves to Lincoln, he was a REPUBLICAN! You idiots!

  • Lincoln was a Republican when the ideals of the Republican party were that of the Democratic party today. Good job stating horridly false facts as evidence to support your claim. Typical.

  • Lincoln was NEVER a liberal. Democrats know they lost the slavery debate, but now that they are trying to make up for it, they find fake victims who are under absolutely no suffering and mindlessly blame Republicans for their fake suffering -- i.e., gays, Muslims, Jews, women, illegals, single mothers, etc.

  • Yes, Lincoln was by definition, a liberal. At the time, the conservative party was the Democratic one, and the liberal party was the Republican party. It's called history.

    I'm not going to even address the second sentence further than this because it is too steeped in idiocy.

  • Abraham Lincoln was no more of a liberal than George Bush. Lincoln suspended habeas corpus to end slavery in the South; it worked. Bush implemented the Patriot Act and invaded Iraq -- which is NOTHING compared to what Lincoln did -- to further attempt to end slavery in the Middle East.

    Are either of those "liberal" ideals? No, the Republican Party supports real civil rights. The Democratic Party has always been the party of slander, treason, impiety, and racism.

  • @xs3icyfd Ok well do you realize that the Patriot Act allows all public to access any and everone's text messages and any emails to large companies? Everyone who bickers or liberals and conservites are just ass holes, get a life and research topics before you scream, shout and cry. back in 08 conservites said obama will make all guns go bye bye well a whole fricking year later? nothing People realize something the CONGRESS or HOUSE approves crap like that NOT the president , prez controlds war

  • What's your point? The Patriot Act does no harm to anyone. Rather, it protects our country.

  • sarah isn't from minnesota!

  • Worst voice overs I've ever heard.

  • look at all these numbskulls supporting this idiot sarah palin. It took her 6 years to get through college.....with a journalism degree................. HoW thE FuCk, does it take 6 YEARS to get a FUCKING journalism degree? Oh wait I know, she partied her ass in school and didnt give a shit. Fucking idiot republicans, thats the standard for america these days 6 YEARS to get a journalism degree.

  • From five different school too.

  • Oprah is a racist pushing for one world government and one New Age Religion. Now that she has showed her true self, her influence is over! Sarah Palin is a huge let down showing the world that money means more to her than morals!

  • How incredibly STUIPD. What a loser.

  • BTW ...this video should come down being it's so entirely lame!

  • This video will probably be removed as well being the blimp oprah is crying, as usual! If everyone was slamming Sarah she would never remove it but because they are slamming her fat butt, it must come down. Oprah has sent a complaint to YouTube asking them to remove all of the Sarah Palin videos!

    WHY? Man the liberals are running scared and we LOVE IT !!!!!

    TY orca for helping us push Sarah further into the spot light! As long as you don't stand in front of the light & create an eclipse!

  • Liberals running scared, we would so love for Sarah Palin to run for president, meanwhile we watch the GOP tear itself apart. Sarah has been great for us, she won the democrats the presidency.

  • Sarah is about honesty and integrity, something the democrats no nothing about. The facts are, if the democrats were not so worried about Sarah then why are they applying so much attention to her? HMMM? ROFL@ the weak and jealous democrats! What's next democrats, another KKK movement? You protested black people in office so you had to wait until you go someone half white to make it even in your minds. They hate the blacks, look at history and learn something! The democrats started the KKK! TE!

  • People pay attention to her because laughing at dumb people is honestly quite fun. Duh.

  • Sure whatever you say! Please keep up the good work! If she wasn't planning on running she certainly should because look how wadded the democrats panties are now, just think about then. BTW, I would say your president has much much more to hide than lil Sarah does. Let's just wait and see what happens.

  • AngryStudioEngineer,

    Your comments are so ignorant and flat out stupid, they don't deserve a reply. Piss off. Read book now and then.

  • AH HAHAHAHAHA! Did I hit a nerve there liberal democrook? If I were you I would probably run and hide about right now being you so boldly helped push this nation into this place. The truth of the matter is, you know you and all of your liberal BS doesn't fly in this country. This is America, unlike ANY OTHER NATION!

    America, when based on her Constitution, is the greatest accomplishment known to mankind!

    It's time to stop the lies and work together to bring this nation back to greatness!

  • hahahah funy vid hahahah hit you with ahahahh chair

  • not really funny at all. Sorry...

  • i think that oprah destroyed her reputation by doing this. sarah palin has said shit worse than fucking david duke. kiss your career goodbye. hope you got paid well for this ish. ugh.

  • lame

  • HaHaHaHa!!!!!

    Made My Day!

  • Obama prevented a collapse, GM, Hyundai, FORD, KIA all hiring and increasing production, unemployment has slowed, GDP is increasing. What do you want overnight success? Govt can't create economy, only regulate huge disasterous ups and downs. If a truly free market means huge spikes of wealth and growth countered by equally huge drops in wealth and stagnation, I'll take govt regulation and economic stability anyday.

  • OMG!!! You are an idiot. GDP increasing? GDP = CIG spending. CIG = Consumer, Investment, & Govt. The only thing that has increased is Govt Spending. Consumer spending down, investment spending down.

    When govt out of money, then what dip shit? Obama said ONLY GOVT can break the cycle we're in. Not true, but he's done nothing to encourage either investment or consumer spending.

    Free market does not mean that. We are in this fix BECAUSE of regs, not lack of. MORON!!!

  • Prevented a collapse? He took over GM you idiot. He controls wages of banks. The stimulus bill that "prevented the collapse" has not even been 15% spent. It has prevented NOTHING. It has been spent to pay off election debts to helpful districts and that's it. The rest is slush fund.

    Not overnight success, but some success would be nice. Unemployment is rising. We were at 6% unemployment before stim 1. Promised we would not go over 8%, We are now at 10.2%. That's an increase MORON.

  • Unemployment RATE has slowed down, GM is paying back govt loans, (if GM is using tax money than damn right they will do it our way) Ford is pulling profit, I think them not taking loan money helped consumer confidence in FORD.

    So you are saying that creating packaged mortgages, selling them off and guaranteeing them against...more worthless mortgages as collateral was a good thing, and REGULATION caused the problem? That is hilarious.

    Economy is turning around...we will see by year two.

  • Unemployment rate has slowed? Well now, there's a ringing endorsement! Actually the unemployment rate is now at 10.2% using the same calculus as GWB. It hasn't slowed. It has increased. New jobless claims are slowing down, but that is largely seasonal. We were promised not to exceed 8% with Stim I. We are at 10.2%. GM is paying us back with more borrowed money - its a sham A free market not forced to make bad loans to begin with would have prevented the crisis so yes, less regs helps.

  • A free market MADE a hell of lot of bad loans because they could package them off and sell them with worthless collateral assuming ZERO risk or liability!! Do you not get what AIG was doing? Acting as a "guarantee angency" to avoid acting as an "insurance agency" to avoid regulation! What are you not getting about credit default swaps? These were bad loans, forcing people into subprime loans that qualified for better ones. But still, the majority of the loans in default are not subprime loans

  • What part don't you get, sport? The bad loans were forced to be made by government through banks. It was basically affirmative action loans. Loans were made under threat of government force to people who could not afford them. But for government intervention, the loans would not have been made. Ergo, no crisis. Because business people would have said NO to bad loans. That means no bad loans would have been made. No bad loans, no packaging to make, no crisis. QED. Here endeth the lesson

  • Look, your a Dr. Not a business person. If you run your own practice, God help you as you will never manage it successfully as you know nothing about finance or economics. The dirivatives maket was developed in response to banks being forced to make bad loans. They basically told gov't OK, if I gotta push these bad loans, I have to have a market to sell them too. AIG obliged and helped build that market. Except more and more bad loans got created as a result of govt intervention.

  • No shit I am not a business person, I have to pal around with all these chamber of commerce business owners who care for nothing but themselves, their money and their business and it makes me sick. My friend is like you, and has warned me and guided me to develop a mind and stomach for business. I just have ethical issues, I don't think money should be an issue in patient care. It is depressing and makes me not want to practice.

  • Interesting take on AIG, I will look into it.

  • You simply cannot be that stupid. No one on the planet is. Well, with the notable exception of Obama voters, which you are so original comment retracted.

  • lol I like palin, but that doesn't mean I can't laugh at this. lol

  • Even though I love Palin, I thought this was pretty funny.

  • Funny. There's also a clever caption contest for a picture of Levi Johnston and Sarah Palin at Thanksgiving. Very, very funny.

    thatguitarman[dot]com

  • Why would anyone want a leader that is as clueless as Sarah Palin. She was clueless of what a Vice President does. I know everyone wants something new, something different, but she is not it. She was clueless on a lot of the topics.

  • Sarah Palin is no leader.

  • Winfrey is a fat old cow who does anything for a buck. Palin should have never lowered herself to go on that scum's show. Hopefully it will benefit Palin somehow. It really just shows who is the real woman here.... Palin.

  • Hahaha! Sarah Palin - a real woman? What breed of redneck are you? Sarah Palin is a milf. She's never earned any of the things she got and can't really do anything successfully, except maybe pumping out babies. I'm no Oprah fan but you're coming across as the most ignorant of ignoramuses in the history of history... tell jerry springer i said hi.

  • Everything that Governor Palin has accomplished was because of her own hard work.

  • Yeah. Like what, getting cured for witchcraft? Claiming to know things and then revealing she always thought Africa was a country? Making girls who were raped pay out-of-pocket for their medical examinations and then claiming to be a fucking feminist?! LOL! Check your sources, then get back to me.

  • Those never happened, typical lib resorting to debunked talking points.

  • @bigkeys72 are you kidding?? its a joke dude

  • you really need glasses. Why the fuck would palin go on that show if Oprah is what you say she is. Man, some of us americans are really dumb.

  • That was no southern accent. I'm southern and no one within 1000 miles of me talks like that. It was probably the author's real (unmodified) voice and, really, headzup should be given an award for creating a dialogue above his reading level.

    One more example of how liberals show us who they really fear. And lets be honest, there would be no reason to continue bashing the pinata if you weren't deathly afraid of her.

    Prediction: Perry/Palin 2012 wins. Perry through 2019 & Palin another 8

  • Prediction: Perry is outted as YAGR(Yet Another Gay RepugnantCon) and Palin finally learns to read. Neither have a snowballs chance, but both get rich off idiots like you.

  • Thank you for making my point better than I ever could myself. I can read the fear, the absolute dread in your words, as can everyone else.

    If neither had a snowball's chance, there would be no need for the insults.

    You know who really doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell for being elected president in 2012?

    OBAMA!!!! LOL!!! We could not have asked for a better president to illustrate why we don't need Democraps in office.

  • Wrong. I'd be delighted if the old Palin hag were to run. But here's a better idea. Run Perry and Crist together! The only problem is that they'll have to take turns being queen.

    The really sad thing is that the ideal Republican candidate died in 1945. It seems he put a bullet in his head and was cremated. Sad, huh?

  • WOW!!! I thought you democraps were supposed to be the tolerant ones, the ones so above all the hate of the minorities and downtrodden. Here you are bashing gays.

    Take turns being queen? You mean like Gore and Clinton? I suspect there was oral sex in the Oval office, but it likely did not include Ms. Lewinsky.

    Look this doesn't really seem fair. I'm, no doubt, engaged in a battle of witts with an unarmed opponent.

    Obama is, like you, impotent, and a 1 termer.

  • Look, it's an open secret that Perry and Crist are gay. Crist married in an attempt to be more palatable if, as he then believed, McNutty had selected him for VP instead of The Whore from Wasilla. When you've got this kind of trash to choose from, it's no wonder the GOPzis are in such disarray. Your only hope is to keep any progress from being made and Just say "NO!!" until 2010. Then you can finally do something to help those poor, suffering insurance companies!

  • 2010 will just be the start my friend. Since you're the one pushing this whole gay thing, you yourself must be gay. Here's how I know your gay. Your chin has ball rests.

    2010 will see a wholesale change in Congress with new congressional leadership from the right and a blood letting in the Senate and impeachment hearings for the Bamster.

    Perry/Palin 2012.

  • You're nobody's friend. Just another dead ender from the Bush regime. We don't need domestic Nazis. Why don't you go back to pissing yourself in fear of an arab with a boxcutter? When things don't work out or you in '10, remember this.There's a sewer in Berlin just waiting for you!

  • I have a lot of friends. 2M of my best friends showed up with me on 9/12 on the front lawn of the Capital building.

    If you brokered in honesty, you would admit that Democraps are much more cloeley aligned with Naziism than Republicans. Nazi's for GRHC, Reps against. Nazi's for higher taxes, Reps against. Nazi's for central planning, Reps against. Nazi's for energy control, Reps against. You could just as easily say Dems as Nazi's.

    10 will be great. Don't piss yourself queerbait.

  • I agree - but keep in mind there are conservatives and there are NEO-Conservatives. True conservatives and libertarians (like Ron Paul) follow the Constitution, but the Neoconservatives (like Bush) ARE for central planning, big government, endless wars, etc.

    It's important that conservatives make that distinction because liberals DO NOT.

  • Nazi means liberal? Better not crack a history book(or a dictionary)! Those nasty things are all written by communists! Arithmetic was invented by filthy Muslims! Don't ever let them try to deceive you into believing that 60,000 doesn't equal 2 million! Besides, those parks officials are just a bunch of trade unionists! We HATE the trade unions! The Communists! and Jews! ... no ... I mean the Muslims! Yup, there's nothing Nazi about that! Now go to the sewer. I don't play with dead things.

  • A history book? My history book taught me that FDR was the greatest president to ever hold the office. That is clearly a lie. He reigned over 16 years of death, despair, and poverty and made slaves of a sovereign people.

    In ever other recession this country experienced, the recipie for recovery was to let the markets work. Recovery was always just around the corner. FDR prevented recovery for 16 years.

    Those books also describe Nazis as bad but lie about what actually was bad.

  • Sorry but the actual numbers in GDP and unemployment, and wages don't agree with your revision of history.

  • My revision of history? The data fully support my version of history. GDP grew during the first 7 years of Bush. Dec, 2007 was the 1st quarter of neg growth - 1 yr post Pelosi.

    Unemployment was at 4.7% up until around June of 2007 when it began declining. Again, after Pelosi.

    And wages were stable or grew during Bush tenure right up to around 2007 time frame.

    Please disprove that.

  • The only thing Dems did was decrease student loan interest rates. Which BUSH raised as part of the "deficit reduction act" and he stopped in school consolidation. Basically he fucks students charges them more money and gives rich people a tax break...WTF?

    You should spew all that free market crap to the employees at PGE who lost their LIFE savings when Enron took over and replaced their pensions with Enron stock! Had that been me I would have put a bullet in one of those wall street fucks.

  • The Dems also increased the minimum wage which put the very people they saught to assist out of work. Bush gave breaks to those who pay the most taxes already. Never got a job from a poor person. Because of tax break, 4.7% unemployment.

    Free market means bad players get wiped out. Sarbanes-Oxley was created as a result of Enron. That law also led to the current crisis we're in. Democrats in charge of Congress when that law was written.

  • As I said before, it's clear you've lost your soul to the GOP. You're nothing but a zombie. Discussion closed.

  • And your a knuckle dragging liberal whose soul and mind will remain a prisoner and slave to "progressive" ideals that seek to limit man's freedom and make him a slave.

    And now the discussion is closed, biatch.

  • For some reason my reply isn't posting so I make this short and see if it posts again. BushCo has fudged the unemployment numbers since keeping tract. They are not the same standards they were under Clinton, e.g. ignores those whose benefits ran out etc. Perhaps I am wrong, however, GDP does not reflect mainstreet. There is no legislation pushed through by dems in 07 that has contributed to this mess due to record republican filibuster. It is all the result of past R deregulation.

  • the iraq war under bush W cost more than obama's bailout and acheived WAY less than nothing. obama is the greatest american president since carter. anyone too stupid to understand this is either being paid by a hostile foreign power or high since f'in birth. GOP either takes a *thoughtful* new direction or we will have 7 more years obama and at least 4 worth of biden. there's no "war" left on this planet in the next 20 years that could conceivably avert this. gratz

  • Sorry pal, Reagan owns that spot. Obama will be a 1 termer because his policies will fail and he does not have the balls to do anything about it except spread the wealth, which takes money from wealthy and gives to poor. How many jobs have you ever been given by a poor person numbnutts.

  • wait a sec. I didn't read what you said thoroughly. History does not record Carter as a great president. He ruined the economy, killed jobs, increased inflation to double digits, interest rates and unemployment too. And he lost to Reagan who turned the economy and the country around for 8+ glorious years. Carter was, next to FDR, one of the absolute worst presidents ever. But you seem to think Obama is the best since him. You're measuring stick is either upside down or broken.

  • uh... those same standards are used under Obama. But the definition has not changed from Clinton to Bush. It has changed over the years, both by Republicans and Democrats starting with JFK. There has been no republican dereg. Sarbanes-Oxley (Democrat) is the law of the land to this day. Massive dereg that was a direct impact on our current crisis.

  • Guess you libs better start hatin Obama now. Check this article on foxnews website found at politics/2009/11/18/obama-warn­s-double-dip-recession/

    Quote from article: "There may be some tax provisions that can encourage businesses to hire sooner rather than sitting on the sidelines. So we're taking a look at those," OOPS!!!!

  • Majority of housing loans in default are not subprime. As for Carter, Dept of labor and stats show decreased national debt, decreased unemployement, under Reagan the opposite. What glorious Regan years, he created the homeless epidemic! What killed Carter was oil and hostages.

  • You'll need to provide a link to back that bullshit up sport.

    What killed Carter was a rare October televised debate where Ronnie looked Americans in the eyes and said "Ask yourself one question. Are you better off now than you were 4 years ago?"

    A month later, Reagan won 44 states and 489 electoral votes. Carter killed Carter. He was impotent, indecisive, and always backed bigger government where smaller government is needed most.

  • Reagan never enjoyed full support in the House or Senate, but he did manage to get big tax breaks that translated into jobs and opportunity for millions of Americans. By the end of his presidency, unemployment was at 5.5% Carter had 7.1% unemployment in his last year.

    Reagan took a weak defense system and turned it into a powerhouse that caused the fall of comminism in USSR.

    What I can show you is example after example of communist failure, but not of free markets in our Republic.

  • Unemployment was at 4 percent when bush took over says the dept of labor and stats, I would send you the link but it won't let me post it. I don't blame Bush for weak econ going into 2000, dot com busts are to blame for that. I blame the fact we never recovered, any stock market and housing life was due to flat out fraud and market manipulation.

    Reagan put us into huge debt to bankrupt the USSR in an arms race for a war that wasn't even real, the Cold War.

  • I don't know what you are talking about. Economy has been terrible since Bush in 2000. Do you forget that Enron, worldcom etc etc all stocks were over inflated prices, they cooked the books. Perhaps DOW was doing so great because of MASSIVE FRAUD! you think?

  • Um... let's see. You must have lost a fortune in Enron. You seem to think our economy lived and died with Enron. That was but a small drop in the bucket. The market will weed out those companies that are bad players. Kinda like what happened to.. Enron. By the way, that didn't happen over night. It took years to pull that off. If you back up far enough you'll find Clinton allowed Enron to happen. But we dasn't say anything ill of the philanderer should we?

  • Clinton allowed Enron to happen? So it was Clintons idea to deregulate energy markets? I believe it was republicans led by Gramm and the repeal of Glass Steagall act in 1999, that was originally put in place in 1933. I would blame Clinton for not vetoing that dog turd legislation by Republicans, I will give you that. People even predicted this mess would happen after that garbage passed.

    Didnt economy get better after 1933 and bank regulation?

  • I think you are so far removed by the effects of the "free market" and deregulation. I have met guys working at Home Depot now that lost over 500K in retirement money from Enron's takeover of PGE. You can look at stats over 50 years and unemployment is down, debt is down, GDP is up, and gap between rich and poor decreases all during Dem administrations. Look at the trends on Dept of Labor and stats.

  • You have had about the most free market you can over the last 8 years and look where we are at? Unless you can tell me some piece of legislation put through by dems in 07 that created this mess, I think you are full of it.

  • And from the 1930's, when we started progressive ideals, until Nixon and especially Reagan, things were pretty good for the middle class. You could work one job and support a family while the wife stayed home. Thanks for proving my point. And for 150 years before that we had huge inequality in wealth, and slave labor too! Of course you can make lots of money with free labor! We should really go back discuss what values are important to us, I will always look at the societal impact of things

  • And what promotes a thriving middle class, as I believe, as did Thomas Paine, that a thriving middle class is the key to maintaining our democracy. That is the ultimate goal, not simply making profit. I mean really, we can go tit for tat with numbers and blame, but we should at least know where we are both coming from philosophically speaking.

  • Sarbanes Oxley was a bipartisan bill passed in 2002 to reduce fraud, corruption and a hell of a lot of shady practices. I am sorry that business left the NYSE because they can no longer be criminals but boo fucking hoo!

  • @ashstone503 How is what you are complaining about any different than the 2010 numbers not reflecting the unemployed when they stop looking for work?

    How is it okay to count census workers who are temporarily laid off and reinstated as additional jobs created?

    Are you equally astonished by this development?

  • If I had an unlimited credit card and could manipulate interest rates of course I can make things look great on paper. Now it is time to pay the piper. Do we really want these disasterous ups and downs where winners take all and losers jump from buildings on wall st? Or do we want relative stability. Watching my house go from 310K in value to 560K in value in 1 year is NOT real value nor sustainable.

  • Do what? Excuse me? Are you high? You make absolutely no sense. What, exactly, looks great on paper? Now you're conceding that I am right that unemployment rates were better under Bush.

    What causes the big swings are free market on the way up and socialism on the way down. 1920 saw a recession. You don't hear much about it because it self corrected and within a year we were back to what is now called the roaring twenties. Compare to 1930, or today and you get what we now have.

  • If free market is so great without govt intervention, find me an example of a democracy where it works and there is a thriving middle class, not an aristocratic elite that runs and controls everything. By the way, I am hardly a knuckle dragging liberal, I am a physician, my wife a nurse. I ask you this, if a man can't work for a living wage, can't afford shelter and is not healthy, is he truly free?

    At least I have a chance to change who my senators are, I have no say in Ken Lay and Enron.

  • I'll be glad to show you a Republic where it works. It's called the United States of America. Land of the free, home of the brave. Check out the first 150 years of our history. In 1930s we began giving up on Free Markets and embracing progressive ideals. Look where it has taken us.

    Yes, man is truly free without being guaranteed those things. To be guaranteed those things would subject him to slavery.

    You have more chance to change Enron than your Senators.

  • Really, I can vote or campaign against Ken Lay? I  can run against him?

  • Well, no. You can't run agains Ken Lay.  He's dead after all. But you could certainly spend as much money as it would take to unseat Kenneth Leyhee and buy yourself a nice seat on the BOD of several Fortune 500 firms.

    QED

  • Unemployment was 3.9 when Bush took over from Clinton...so what? Tell me what legislation did Dems pass that contributed to unemployment? I guess presidential domestic economic policy is just ignored? In 2002, headlines read worst economy for college grads in 50 years, now it is even worse and we are in far more debt. The free ride is over. If anything Bushed improved economy by creating a war. Do you even understand the housing crisis scam? Credit default swaps etc?

  • Well, that's a provable lie and you know it. Unemployment was over 6% when Clinton handed off to Bush.

    Sarbanes-Oxley. In 1992, congress passed law requiring banks to create loans people could not afford. Clinton forced banks to use unemployment benefits as income to qualify buyers. Housing crisis beget unemployment.

    And under Clinton, headlines read best economy ever and no homeless. Good thing they are neutral, huh?

    So you admit economy improved under Bush. Good for you.

  • Actually we don't need Republicraps in the Oval Office again.

    We all know that they are the REAL cause of much of the mess we currently face in the USA.

  • Republicraps? That wasn't very original, nor did it fit. Next time try something like Republitard or something that shows you at least tried.

    Ummmm.... Let's see. Economy singing along until 2006. Congress taken over by Democraps in 2006. Economy tanks in 2008. Sounds like Democraps played a big role to me.

    Bush was less than helpful and I blame his as much as anyone. But Pelosi, Frank, Dodd had power to avert crisis and did not.

  • Comment removed

  • Economy was not singing along, in fact, in 2002 it was the worst economy for college graduates in decades. Unemployment was up, gap between rich and poor was increasing etc. The only thing that kept economy semi-afloat was a FAKE housing market "rush". Watching a house go from 310K to 560K in one year is not a stable, sustainable nor "real" economy. This was caused by Republican deregulation of banking and created the mess we are in now. Get your facts right.

  • Economy was singing along. Unemployment was down, labor pool was shrinking, more jobs than there were employees. If college grads could not find a job, it was their own stupid fault. Dow hit 14k+ in summer of 2006 and has not seen that mark since.

    Fake housing rush? Check these out:

    These videos clearly illustrate Republicans fighting for more oversight of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and Democrats balking at every step.

  • The accents need work, the content is hilarious.

  • Comment removed

  • @trawldoors No she does not have a Southern Accent and it is you who is ridiculous for even implying that all Southern people are backward.Get a clue. And apparently Sarah brings out the disgraceful inner darkness in some people,especially liberals. Like pouring holy water on demons.If she didnt hurt them they wouldn't scream so much. And most of these critics have nothing to show for their existance.Sarah does.GO SARAH!

  • @Grimcargo I'm sorry, my comment does seem to sound that way. That is not what I'm trying to say. Hell I'm from the deep South, and have a thicker southern accent than many. The point I was trying to make is that the libs, when wanting to demonize someone on, TV, movies, Internet or politics use a southern accent to do so.

  • There are two distinct groups within the Far Right Wing faction in the States. The very small minority, who work for big business, including Insurance, Banking and the NRA, and the majority, PEOPLE WHO SIMPLY FOLLOW OTHER PEOPLE AKA SHEEP-LIKE BEHAVIOR. The Minority funds and controls the Majority, while the Majority does not really know who this Minority is. The Majority in the Far Right movement even believes their funding is a grass-roots phenomenon. This keeps them in place. In the dark.

  • Palin is such a compulsive liar, & we've all been witness to her countless lies so many times & so often, that wen she says she's never called Trich, Trock, Track, Triz, Tram, 'retarded' we all know instinctively that she's lying thru her capped teeth....Again!

    Once a liar...

  • And I suppose you heard her say that?

  • No, I never heard her say that. But you know the 'cry wolf' story, uworx. We all know u can never trust a liar.

  • But what has she lied about?

  • Palin lied about the Bridge to Nowhere. She lied about sacking her trooper brother-in-law; she lied about the President, saying he 'pals around with terrorists' & the Prez was 8years old wen Bill Ayers the hippie revolutionary was active! She has lied many times & had numerous ethics complaints against her in Alaska. She sacked a librarian for telling the media Sarah asked her to ban books like Harry Potter. Then Palin denied that. If u google: Sarah Palin+Lies u'll be up all night reading!

  • Bridge to Nowhere:

    "The Governor clearly saw that the project was expensive and wildly unpopular outside of the community it would have benefited. Since it was her call where the money went, Palin redirected the funds to other projects."

  • She has been cleared of all ethics charges including the one about her brother-in-law..

    The librarian still has her job. Palin never banned any books and the librarian continues to slander her. Harry Potter wasn't even issued til after this supposedly happened.

  • President Obama does surround himself with many many radical progressive/socialisists, even in the WH. Research his 30+ czars and their backgrounds. Van Jones, who recently resigned is a self proclaimed communist.

    Can't people see that the media has set out to destroy Sarah Palin from the get go? As yourselves why?

  • uworx,

    You respect & admire Palin.

    I disrespect & scorn Palin.

    I know that we'll never agree on this one.

    All we'll do is drain our energies dry.

    So let's just agree to disagree on this one.

    yeah? peace, witchwild

  • Aside from the fact that she is an IDIOT and nut job...

  • What a dildo. goingmaverickdotcom

  • Yes, with Palin's book going for $9.00 new on Amazon. It shouldn't be for free. The publisher needs to recuperate the costs.

  • Yeh, after all someone needs to pay for the silly cows Prozac.

  • I'll never buy another book from Harper Collins again... guess I'll have to get my favorite authors second hand on e-bay or used from Amazon.

    Anyone that would publish this Moron isn't getting 50 cents from me.

  • "Where's my retarded baby!?" - Sarah Palin 2008 -

  • omg! she is so horrid! way to use a poor mentally handicaped baby to get ahead politcally!

  • I'm definitely purchasing Palin's book sor sure on the first day on 17 of Nov. at BORDERS!

  • We'll pray for you!

  • You betcha.

  • I love how people confuse socialism with communism as though they were the same, which they are not. Socialism has worked in many countries. America needs a blending, a balance of socialism and capitalism to be fair I think. The only reason why big rich companies say socialism is bad is because they want to be greedy and horde money, and not give money to those who really need it

  • I agree with you there has to be a balance. However, it is proven that conservatives give much more individually to charity than liberals do. Think about that. Why do they only want to "help" people with other people's money?

  • uworx:

    What about all those liberal stage stars, musicians & singers who are always helping the vulnerable? Liberals give from the soul, unconditionally. Artistes, writers, actors, are some of the most philanthropic ppl around. They're always doing benefit concerts, marathons, gigs, for the defenseless & poor. They just don't always trumpet it the way conservatives do when they give. Giving is always *conditional* with conservatives: You scratch my back...

    That's the difference.

  • you're right, witchchild about those givers. And they are very big ones. I guess I was referring to the politicians. Those are the ones that want taxpayers to share everything but don't give themselves. It should be a choice. I think the back scratching goes on both ways. They all make my skin crawl.

  • yeah, you are right too, uworx, the politicians should be helping the vulnerable more. Too much money goes into 'corporations' & self interest industry rather than to those who really need the help.

  • socialism for the rich, capitialism for the poor

  • glad we agree on that one witchwild (lol-mispelled your name above). May I ask, do you agree that we should be able to give and help by choice and not forced by the government?

  • Yes, uworx, we should give of our own accord what we can whenever we can.

    But when it comes to filthy rich greedy capitalists-those who don't enjoy helping others of their own accord-they should be taxed so that they too do their bit in helping others less fortunate than themselves to have a happy & successful life.

    Fat cats are often greedy, ruthless, heartless & self-centered & as helping others doesn't come naturally 2 them they require a little push to help them 2 learn how 2 help others.

  • I'm with you. I hate greed in the worst way. And even more than that, corruption. I'm not sure, tho, if most people realize or not that the rich already pay 85-90% of our taxes. What happens is, when they get taxed even more, they take their business elsewhere. Either out of state or even out of the country. Then we are left with no jobs. NY is announcing they're on the verge of bankruptcy. Their taxes are so high, the rich are leaving. That is why Repubs are for tax CUTS. It creates jobs.

  • If they worked hard to get what they've got, why should they be forced to give to those who maybe didn't work hard at all. Is that fair? We all have abilities to become rich here in America if we really want to. No one should be "entitled" to it. We work..we eat. Right?

  • Ah yes! From the rich all good things flow. They contribute so much don't they? What a deluded fool! Be a man! Get out from under! The rich contribute NOTHING. They only take. If they were sources of wealth instead of sinks, they'd grow poorer over time rather than richer. Instead the rest of us work harder and grow poorer. How have the billionaires behind health insurance made anyone healthier? Better question. How many thousands have they killed by their greed?

  • sarah palin's new book "politics for dummies" will be a big hit with the whacko right wing mob.

  • Tanks but no tanks.

  • That Snot Rag Sarah Palin is a total joke. Todd is a college drop out and she quits her job! The Palins are Quitters!

  • im not! hes great

  • There is a old saying:Better to be thought as a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

    You just opened your racist mouth.

  • Sarah got $1.25 million for her book rights. She would have gotten more if her manuscript wasn't in crayon.

  • That would be great, hit her fat ugly ass up side the head with a chair. Great Vid!

  • Is it a pop-up book?

  • Funniest one in a while! lololol!

  • this one was freaking hilarious loved it 5 stars!
