What good does it do to have yourself discovered as a fraud? I say, take your lumps in your regular username and move on to rise up and slay again another day. I get tired trying to keep track of them all.

I'm guessing fewer than ten people account for 75% of the alt population.

There couldn't possibly be more than ten who are that stupid.

To be fair 60% of that are Jenaltarmy clones.

And yeah I share the suspicion that Merc and Celebrai are the same person. I don't remember why though. . .like did they have the same AV at some point?

Also miles don't pretend your smarter than the average bear. You're not. Actually let me translate this into your native language for you.

STFU Rightfield...

I couldn't care less how many alts someone has because a debate is not impacted by alt cheerleaders saying the same exact thing. That's just me though.

Miles, why do you care so much?

I have no alts, I consider them cowardly.

Cowardly or not, I'm not sure how it alters the debate.

Hey, we're going to cross that magic mark of 11,000 again today!




Woo hoo, going on three years into the recovery and we hit such an important benchmark!


lol

That's my prediction according to my reading of the futures...

Never misunderestimate the power of Stoopid.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

For the real heart warming news of the day, the INDEPENDENT expert, Zandi at Moody's, has downgraded the investment of Venture Socialist Warren Buffet in Bank of America...




CAUTION! Genius at work!

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

It's cubic, at least...

When are they going to wake up and smell the Depression, the Lost Decade, the 'Lost Generation?'

Maybe quadratic! Probably need some Daffy-Q to isolate some of those variables...

I'd do it, but I am not a smart man.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Looks like the Fed took James Carville's message to heart, even if Obama will not...

PANIC!​

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

I'm not a smart man and even I got where Obama was taking us...

*chuckle*

I guess I'm still not saying anything new, but that's kind of the point of bumping this thread, to show that all those wacky radical rw predictions had some merit to them, otherwise U_D would be bumping the thread demanding our excuses, instead, he gets his opportunity to offer us "explanations..."

A_J's corollary #9a, “When a Republican does it, an explanation is making an excuse, when a Democrat does it, then an excuse is the rightful explanation.”

You know,

like,

Really? They going to pay banks to borrow their money?



Try as we will, we will find a way to go slower than stopped.

What ever will U_D say about Keynes if we hit the ol' double-dip?





Even Sarah is within shootin' range of taking this guy out of office...


She can see his Siberia from her front porch!

 

[JohnnySavage]

I don't like the new name.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

You betcha.



Not!!!



I'd move to Siberia.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

I don't like the new name.

I am sorry, but you were not available for consultation, the sign said the doctor is out...

[4est_4est_Gump]

You betcha.

I'd move to Siberia.

Gulag! Gulag! oh no, me gotta go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby.

Gulag! Gulag!, oh baby, me gotta go.

Obama's half-baked Marxist musings with Joe the Plumber remain his deepest thoughts on the purpose of taxation. He still feels entitled to seize wealth and "spread" it around. When he says that the rich aren't paying their "fair share," all he is saying is that their money belongs to the government automatically for redistribution. But that's just theft masquerading as taxation. The true principle of taxation is not the redistribution of wealth but the financing of legitimate government activity, and under that principle the rich are paying more than their fair share, as they carry a disproportionate amount of those costs. Republicans should resist the Buffett rule not just because it will inhibit job creation and consumption but because it is a bald act of theft.

America's "jobs president" is more like a crooked Robin Hood. Economic decline is not so much a crisis for him as a policy and a pretext for ideological opportunism. Given the choice between liberal ideology and the creation of jobs, he consistently selects the former. He chooses unions over jobs, environmental regulations over jobs, and trivial tax-hike gimmicks over jobs.

Obama's blasé attitude about Solyndra, shrugging off an enormous loss to taxpayers as no big deal, is part of this ideological blindness and complacency. No failure ever prompts any reflection on the wisdom of a liberal scheme; he just moves forward, trying out new ways to present failed ideas as a boon to the common good.

A popular slur among liberal pundits is to say that Republicans oppose Barack Obama's economic ideas because they want the economy to stay sluggish before the election. The slur makes no sense. If that were the Republicans' crass calculation, they would be supporting his ideas, as they are sure to make a bad economy worse.

Good article.

When times get tough, Obama makes a speech.
