Edward Dolan wrote: [...] Liberals are so blinded by ideology that they are unable to comprehend, much less deal with, the simplest facts. Folks, there is nothing dumber in this world than a liberal. I give you Mr. Sherman as a prime example of the species. Lets look at these remarks as it explains a lot. People, tend to think that others would do the same thing as they do. Hence, if you are an ideologue, you think your opponent must be also. Now, Mr Dolan has not refuted a single fact, he has instead engaged in the most typical conservative line of personal attack. That gets around those pesky facts which are so hard to explain. Bill Sornson gives anyone all the facts they would ever need. Which is none. I go to the heart of the matter which is the ideology of liberals. It is wrongheaded. I have never known a liberal whom didn't deserve to be executed for crimes against humanity. A liberal is a socialist is a communist. They are kin to Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, etc. Leftists all! These are all strawman arguments. You make your opponent out to be something of your own creation, so you can attack it. To actually believe that Obama is a communist is bereft of any real understanding and delusional. You don't have a clue. That is the ultimate destination of all liberals. After all, communism is nothing but liberalism perfected. Marxism is basic to all Leftists. BTW, I assume that you will be giving up up your Social Security and Medicare. Send us proof. I am one of the few persons in this country my age who does not have Social Security and Medicare. As you can see, I marched to a different drummer than the common man. I'm reminded of what Col Lawrence Wilkerson, Colin Powels longtime aid, has said about George W Bush, he should be tried for treason. You have got everything backwards. It is Obama who will be tired for treason. After all, he is destroying America as we have known it for several hundred years. Er, did you miss that the financial system was in collapse? Did you miss that this is widely referred to as the worst recession since the Great Depression? Did you miss that growth has returned and the unemployment rate (which you seem to like) is heading down. Did you miss that the Deficit nearly tripled under Bush? Bush was twiddling his thumbs when all this was going down. Did you not notice how much of the initial reaction was waste? Jeff Colin Powell in fact is guilty of treason himself. He was never loyal to Bush. Why did he not resign if he did not agree with Bush on the Iraq war? He was nothing but an opportunist and owed everything he was to the Repubs. **** that cowardly general - who never met a war that he liked. I missed this before. They were all loyal, and they all came to understand the facts were being manipulated. It is not just Colin Powell but George Tenet, Paul O'Neill, Scott McClellan, Richard Clarke... Powell was a typical army general, not wanting to get out ahead, and being faithful. The UN speech is what gave the Iraq war it's rationale. It was all misinformation made up by the OVP (Cheney).

Bush will go down in history as the president who took on the Islamic terrorists while the rest of the world stood by and did nothing. Er, did he have a choice? He will go down as the president on whose watch 9/11 happened and who let binLaden get away while he strated a war that had nothing to do with alQaeda in Iraq. You do realize that the drones that were tracking binLaden were pilled out of Afghanistan to track Iraq instead? I think he will also go down as the president that marks the "beginning of the end." I dont. Bet he ends up being seen like that fool Hoover or Spiro Agnew. Because he invaded Iraq precisely because it had NO WMDs, Iran and N. Korea decided to get the real thing. They did indeed. WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE. There's no jungle in North Korea either. |

We shall have to effect regime change in Iran too sooner or later. To his credit, Obama seems to be doing the right thing in Afghanistan. [...] After languishing for years, because the eye was on Iraq. Note that 2009 was a record year for killing alQaeda and Taliban. 2010 is well on the way to eclipsing that. The leader of Pak Taliban is dead. But in additional much progress has been made in cutting off their finances. The difference between a working government and one trying to limp to the finish line. Attention is finally being paid to Yemen. You did know that Bush had a bit of a tiff and halted efforts there? Iraq was the central battleground as long we we there. Even the Islamic extremists agreed with that. What difference does it make whether we kill them in Iraq or Afghanistan or Pakistan or anywhere else. The important thing is to kill them wherever they are. It [the debt] is unsustainable and highly dangerous. The only way out will be hyperinflation, the gravest sort of tax on the middle class and the working poor. No sign of hyperinflation. Plenty of signs of fear and rabid behaviour on the right. The debt will have to be handled, but the right has no plans other than tax cuts and more spending off books. But first the economy. You always spend your way out of a recession, that is if you want to get out. Historically money is put back during good times. W drained the pot. This business of spending your way out of a recession may be seriously flawed. However, time will tell and any chickens out there will soon come home to roost. The debt is very worrisome. Yes. Reagan was wrong in that deficits don't matter. So was Bush 2. Remember he was given near surpluses. Their means of fighting a recession was to lower taxes, especially on the rich. It seemed to have worked rather well. So far, Obama is making a mess of everything. But the recession comes first. Note that the value of the dollar which had fallen so much under W is up under Obama. That borrowing rates are historically low and that the % debt to GDP was higher post war. You can not lower taxes and fix the debt. It has always been the opposite. Even Reagan and George Bush 1 had to raise taxes after a while. Trickle Down does not work. Trickle down works in the short term, but not in the long term. We all believe in the progressive income tax, don't we? There is little discretionary spending that can be cut, and the right refuses to consider tackling mandatory. The only plan they had was to privatize SS, the safety net. How many people would be destitute now if that had been in place? Agree with you on the above. Bush was a big spender and he never vetoed anything. He was not a true conservative by any means. He was the darling of the conservative set, how can you deny that? You still defend and admire him. I admire Bush for taking on the Islamic extremists, something Clinton never did. The invasion of Iraq was a stroke of genius. Bravo Bush! Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

"jeff" wrote in message ... Edward Dolan wrote: [...] The Repubs do blather on about taxes way too much I must admit. But we have got to get some control over spending. That is the problem, not taxes. [...] Exactly what spending? I've posted the links to the 2010 budget, did you look? What would you cut in the discretionary that would make a difference? ALL spending - you dolt! Would you take the wars off budget again so the numbers look better? There is one main reason why we have a federal government, to protect the people. Why do the Dems always want to cut defense spending? As someone put it, The Tea Party is like a dog chasing a car. If they ever caught it they wouldn't know what to do with it. The Tea Party movement is a sign of hope. They want smaller government and less spending. If you are on the frugal living group, you should be for it. Sarah is a woman with much ambition, but little ability. She has little clue of what is going on. She has narrow dogmatic beliefs. It is not just liberals that believe that. Just keep believing that and you will soon get the surprise of your life. McCain was dead until he got hold of Sarah. Sarah ran a state where the average citizen received far more from the government dole than the lower 48. Indeed while she was mayor of Wasilla she lobbied heavily and got government dollars. And she quit the Governership in shambles, she treated the office like it was for family and personal benefit. What a messy family life she leads. Who cares about any of the above. Alaska has always been ****ed up. So what else is new? Sarah at least is not a murderer like liberals are (abortion). But she think like you, which is to say, not deeply. We deep thinkers are alike in that we hate liberals. But Mass. gives us hope. Imagine people so stupid as to keep voting for Kennedy even though he was a murderer (Chappaquiddick) and a craven coward. But that is a liberal for you!

Everyone in the world believed that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction and that he would use them (as he had in the past). Apparently, only you ever believed otherwise. Bill Sornson has posted many times what everyone was saying at the time. But of course, liberals are never deterred by any facts. All liberals know how to do is spin, spin, spin and lie, lie, lie! And of course, hindsight is always 20/20. Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

What difference does it make whether we kill them in Iraq or Afghanistan or Pakistan or anywhere else. The important thing is to kill them wherever they are. The crew in Iraq didn't exist before.

It seemed to have worked rather well. The recession, largely caused by after effects of Vietnam and oil shocks, was on the way out long before any of those tax breaks took effect. But those tax breaks are miniscule compared to what W did. Look up the marginal tax rates if you don't believe me. So far, Obama is making a mess of everything. Except the economy is on the mend. GDP is up, unemployment heading down. Much success in killing alQaeda. Millions of people retained their unemployment benefits. But the recession comes first.

Trickle down works in the short term, but not in the long term. We all believe in the progressive income tax, don't we? All that money that W gave to the rich didn't help the economy. It wasn't invested in productive work. A lot of it went into those exotic financial instruments that wrecked the economy. The economy did very well under Clinton with a top marginal Tax Rate of 39.6%. Not that anyone pays that after tax breaks. What's wrong with going back to that? There is little discretionary spending that can be cut, and the right refuses to consider tackling mandatory. The only plan they had was to privatize SS, the safety net. How many people would be destitute now if that had been in place? Agree with you on the above. I'm glad we agree on something! Bush was a big spender and he never vetoed anything. He was not a true conservative by any means. He was the darling of the conservative set, how can you deny that? You still defend and admire him. I admire Bush for taking on the Islamic extremists, something Clinton never did. The invasion of Iraq was a stroke of genius. Bravo Bush! Nope. Clinton had a comprehensive plan, one that was handed off to W who did nothing. Read Richard Clarke, George Tenet, Paul O'Neill, any of those who worked in the W Whitehouse (all Republicans) and they will tell you that W was obsessed with Saddam and cared not a whit about alQaeda, until... and then the first reaction was to go after Iraq. Mind you that the designers of the first WTC attack were all arrested and successfully prosecuted. While all that was happening the right repeatedly said that Clinton was too obsessed with alQaeda. The focus shifted when W took office. And, you do realize there was no alQaeda in any part of Iraq that Saddam controlled. After the invasion, those were alQaeda converts, that didn't exist before. All for the loss of thousands of American Military personnel and many many innocent civilians (The average civilian death toll was on the order of a hundred a day for years) and a trillion dollars or so. What has happened is you have been swept up in the strong talk and breast beating. Results are what matters.
