Is that a landline phone survey? So ... Americans over 50 were polled, and they all agree the price of food is higher then when they were young?

Now you're getting the hang of the right wing knuckle shuffle!

No. They are saying it's higher than it was a year ago. It seems that it should be simple enough either prove or disprove this as a trend over say the past five or six years.

I supposed I'm a little confused as to why you would poll for that. It's a fact, they either are or aren't. Except for milk, I personally haven't noticed a marked increase in the price of my groceries overall.

Please no nitwittery today, thanks.

Ok, I admit I was being cheeky. However that doesn't change the fact that when you poll landline phones you are polling a specific target group of people. That would be like me taking a poll for gay rights at a gaga concert.

Because perception is reality. While you rightfully point out facts are facts, pollig doesn't make them true or untrue it does effect how people vote. If 88% of people think Obama is the reason they go to sleep hungry that's gonna effect how they vote.

For those idiots here who insist that inflation is under control:

88% Say They're Paying More for Groceries Than A Year Ago

Wednesday, May 16, 2012

Americans still say overwhelmingly that they are paying more for groceries than they were year ago which helps explain why a majority continues to lack confidence in the Federal Reserve Board’s ability to keep inflation down.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 88% of American Adults report paying more for groceries compared to a year ago, a finding that has ranged from 75% to 93% since April 2009.

I just bought two pair of regular 501 Levis, $54 a piece on sale. Regular price was $60 plus.

That's because you're a dummy and don't know how to shop. They even have your size (big & tall) for under $50.00

Someone should quote that^^^. He's on a fixed government income and I'd hate to think he's misspending taxpayer money.

Obama budget defeated 99-0 in Senate

By Stephen Dinan

President Obama's budget suffered a second embarrassing defeat Wednesday, when senators voted 99-0 to reject it.

Coupled with the House's rejection in March, 414-0, that means Mr. Obama's budget has failed to win a single vote in support this year.

Republicans forced the vote by offering the president's plan on the Senate floor.

And you've been told what's happening here. You just choose to ignore it.

You think Obama controls fuel and commodity prices now?

LOLing at the "fixed income" statement.

He needed a new pair of grandpa jeans to go with his Members Only jacket.

I know it's not a fail when it brings out your frenzied defensiveness. I know you'll admit the truth to yourself, that's all the satisfaction I require.

Oh please. Your racist shitstain BFF is the only one in a frenzy when he automatically nuts over everything you post like a well-trained bitch. And trust me when I tell you that I laugh when people like you think you're schooling anyone about the social verity of black American lives.

All the black journalists you can struggle to find on the internet and meme vector back here does not prove that you understand or even give a shit. Your blind enabling of your buddy jumping around your shoes underscores this way better than my pulling your cards does.

So where's your thread, Ahab? Need a scuba suit to go get it?

 

[NeverEndingMe]

we need more taxes!

we need more obama spending!

the only solution is tax and spend, spend and more spend

government is good, government is awesome
