I don't get how the speaker of the house can talk about Government spending and big government being bad... acting like he's not part of government. He's the speaker of the fucking house, HE IS THE GOVERNMENT THAT HE COMPLAINS ABOUT.

@calimar28 Umm seig heil is not a communist rally cry.

wow that was the best news in the history of news when cenk was on msnbc, exposing the inner working of the corrupt mechanism... no wonder it didnt last long :|

@durhamdf So you're sending me $50? How'd you get my address?

[durhamdf]

@Zyworski Right...which is why when Clinton raised taxes to the exact rates we are talking about today, we only had one of the longest economic expansions in U.S. history. And people must have held back on investing because we only inflated the tech bubble and experienced rapid demand pull inflation. Bush cut taxes and these for the wealthy by 4.6 to its current rate and we experienced the slowest decade of growth since WW2. Kind of blows a whole in your retarded trickle down economics bullshit

@durhamdf I agree with you,I am starting to hate the tea party,I am a nurse and pay more tax's than the very

rich.I live in Texas and detest Rick Perry,he is a hypocrite and you can not believe a word he said.

[Zyworski]

"The fact is you can't tax the very people you expect to invest in our economy and create jobs" That is exactly why we have tax deductions. Companies that invest and create jobs enjoy tax deductions so that they don't have to pay taxes, John Boehner is not worrying about jobs, he is worried about corporate income statements.

@ghuegel Yeah little troll boy, you like to play this game of making ridiculous comment taking quotes completely out of context to attack the dems while keeping your own political identity ambiguous. THen no one can tie you down to an ideology and whenever someone corrects your moronic comments you just distance youself from them by claiming it doesn't represent your own view but rather is just a quote you are repeating. $50 says you are another tea bagging retarded ...just afraid to admit it

[ghuegel]

@durhamdf Weird. I never claimed to be a Democrat. Or a tea-bagger. I think you're confused.

You should watch the video again. She made an analogy and I made the same analogy. My comment had zero context... again with your imagination.

And don't expect anyone to take you seriously when you can't help but use the word "retard" over and over and over and over and... etc. Best I can guess is that you're projecting your own insecurities here. But that's just a guess.
