"Don't retreat, reload!" + The Crosshairs Map = Go kill anyone who is in our way.

That "right wing wacko" who Giffords defeated had a fundraiser where donors were invited to shoot an automatic weapon.

The right's fascination with guns and "might makes right" set the stage for this massacre.

Guns should be banned. 

Palin is done politically unless we want a for real Hitler as an American president.

But you guys keep on thinking that it's all just happenstance.  K?  Thanks,loveyou,meanit,don'teverchange!

And the government's deficits are set to climb higher if Congress passes a tax-cut plan that's estimated to cost $855 billion over two years.

But by all means, let's worry about how much money the government is "stealing" from the rich.

The rich don't create jobs.

Which companies have you worked for that were owned by poor people?

My mother started her own business and sold it for a profit.  She started it in her living room and used child labor (i.e. my sister and me).  At the time she started said business, we all three lived in a two bedroom duplex and I distinctly remember having beans and loaf bread for dinner more than once.

Years later, I was her warehouse manager for a year and a half. 

Does this meet your standard of working for a business owned by "poor people"?

And she created LOTS of jobs.

Trickle down never works.  The rich don't create jobs.  They sit on their wealth.  They buy old houses and land and play the stock market like a roulette wheel.

If it helps their bottom line, it doesn't matter how fast the shredders are going

Look, dude, an accoutant is an added cost to a company that makes shredded cheese. Ok?  You can ramble on about offsets and bottom lines, but an accountant's salary, unless his added duties included "dropping blocks of cheese product into the shredder, is never going to be offset by an increase in cheese sold because an accountant can make people buy more cheese.

Not you can make the case that he may improve the bottom line by exploiting loopholes and finding unnecessary workers and firing them but the amount of product sold (whether less or more) can never be attributable to his being hired.

That's all I'm saying.

Offset by the increased revenues brought in by the increased production of x

Hiring a new accountant doesn't make the cheese product shredders run any faster.

Reganomics was a complete lie and has been demonstrably proven to only benefit the wealthy.  10 years of it and the top ten percent or so DOUBLED their income.  Everyone else saw barely a 3% increase.  The deficit ballooned out of control and homelessness skyrocketed.  You guys keep backing the millionaires in hopes you'll hit the lottery one day and you're just not.

Tax the shit out of the rich and watch life get better.  It always works.

Employees are an added cost to companies.

"The significance of this staff shift is beyond the operational. The Clinton-era alums, by outlook and experience, represent a centrist, pragmatic, pro-business "wealth-creation" wing of the Democratic Party that flourished during the Clinton presidency in the 1990s."

Agreed.  Now in a tie with Carter.  Remind me though.....when's the last time a poor person employed people, much less alot of people.  And I'm referring to adults, not 3rd graders selling lemonaide on the local corner

When the unemployment rate continues to go up after the millionaires get their tax cuts, where will you be?

And, as I understand it, employers prefer to "productivity" over higher employment numbers.  What is the incentive to hire more people when they've got everything humming along just fine with who they already have?

Not to mention that the U.S. is superior to pretty much every other country in the area of healthcare related research, medications, equipment, and quality in delivery.  No coincidence that it's largely because we DON'T have some form of UHC......until now

Your prescious England is economically imploding with its version of UHC, and Canadiens make every effort to get their healthcare here, when it comes to chronic pain and needed surgeries.  In fact, I have yet to see any stories of Americans flocking to Canada for their supposedly superior healthcare

The US is only somewhat superior to other countries if you only look at the people who can AFFORD IT.  Even then the US is not number one.

All those people who "flock" to the US for it's healthcare come here predominantly for elective surgeries i.e. boob jobs and facelifts.


I saw something recently about the health care system in the UK and they were saying that no politician who ever wants to get re-elected will eve try to end socialized medicine there.

I'm pretty sure that's all hogwash.

So nearly EVERY industrialized nation in the world, including your precious Israel, has some form of universal health care. Are all those nations living in "serfdom".

What I don't understand, sirs, is with all the crap he hasn't done and the way he's rolling over for the GOP constantly, he's still being called a socialist by the right.  That health care bill was the biggest sack of nothing and now he's helping out 32,000 millionaires.  He's worse than CLINTON!
