Thanks for the quick summary of republican talking points and the anticipated name-calling.
That's not really an intelligent response to the truth, and as long as you continue to deny the reality, the country will continue to sink further than it already has.
I don't need to use talking points, and I don't even bother to use them or memorize them. I just use common sense and logic before making any statements or conclusions. Talking points are strictly for the mentally challenged, which is what the democrats use all the time to mesmerize their mentally challenged followers.
Are you actually trying to make us buy into "trickle-down economic theory" again.
That kind of economics, though it may sound not very sociable and not too appealing, and even sounds very politically incorrect, is what has worked and created the greatest economy and greatest country that ever existed. Socialism, even if you don't want to hear it, has never worked, not anytime and not anywhere.
The wealth creators are the businesspeople and the innovators and the entrepreneurs and the ambitious, and if they didn't exist, there would be no wealth to create jobs and to grow an economy and to create what the founding fathers envisioned for the American people, namely, "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". Socialism has always killed any economy and has always brought misery and poverty anywhere it's been tried.
Ha! That is so last century.
Capitalism worked in the last century and it worked before that century and will work again in the future, as long as government gets out of the way and allows the private sector to create and grow businesses and create jobs. Socialism only serves to kill businesses and jobs. You are witnessing that all over the U.S. and even around the world, but, because you very likely have your head in the sand, you probably aren't noticing.
Keep up the good work though;
I'll do that anyway, even without your urging.
you managed to regurgitate all the right buzz words.
You can call my comments talking points or regurgitated buzz words, but, they are common sense facts that can't be denied or refuted. The only thing you've done so far is use the never-ending false assumptions that, government has the answers to solving the needs of society, but, you, quite obviously aren't bothering to engage your mind to do even the simplest kind of analysis about how government intervention has caused the vast majority of the problems which plague the economy and people's lives.
Hey, is that you W?
No, I'm not W, but I do wish that I had his money.
However, it's quite apparent that you never even paid attention to what really transpired during the Bush years. During his years, he managed to reverse an economy that was left by Clinton in recession, and brought the economy to the greatest growth it had ever seen in history. During his 2 terms, the economy created some 8 million jobs. He also brought the national deficit to within 160 billion dollars of getting balanced, and that happened because, with a hugely successful economy, the tax revenues to government were at the highest levels ever.
Democrats and Clinton claim that, Clinton left a balanced budget, but that was far from the truth and what did actually occur was a lot of budget gimmickry in order to show a "balanced budget". However, even if during Clinton, the budget did get close to being balanced, it was not because he had anything to do with it. It was a republican congress which forced his hand and brought spending under control and the budget close to getting balanced. Facts are hard to overcome, and what Clinton and the democrats are best at is, lying. But, since you apparently don't even bother to ask even the simplest of questions, you will accept those lies.
"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda."
That is the same, no matter who the politician is and no matter what party or ideology they represent.
But, that line is most appropriate with the socialists and liberals and democrats. In fact, it's part of their party platform to twist and deny and lie, in order to get the people to swallow their ideas. The fact is that, if the democrats never lied and told the truth about their plans and ideology, they'd never win any major positions in government.
All things considered, and even considering that Bush was not my first republican choice to run for president in 2000 or even 2004, he was a much more decent person and a much better president than either Clinton or Obama.
Clinton skated through his 8 years, and Obama is turning out to be the most disastrous president ever in American history.
So, take your pick: face reality and the facts in front of you, or keep your head buried deep under ground.
