Senate Votes to Reject Jobs Bill

Georgia…the BOZOS are the politicians who keep proposing the same ideas that haven’t worked in the past (namely, more spending and raising taxes). Why not try something that will actually work? The Republicans have put forth a number of plans that don’t even get voted on because of the obstructionist Democrat party in the Senate. How can Republicans help if their commonsense proposals are rejected by King Harry (Reid)?

“Mike”, you seem to forget that the first six years of the Bush Administration were pretty darn good years. Unemployment so low that it was said that if you were unemployed, it was because you didn’t WANT to work. Inflation about non-existant. Pride in our nation and in our citizens. Then Harry met Nancy and our world started falling apart. The economy started failing because of the now majority democrats were giddy with their new powers. WOW! they exclaimed…..a majority in BOTH chambers AND a lame duck president. The perfect storm for lunacy. And the MSM helping them spread their gospel..the sheep ate it up…..and obamas election was a given. obama cried, “i inherited a mess from bush”….no, fool, you didn’t. You inherited a mess from Nancy and Harry. “Behold!” says obama, “I bailed out wall street and the unions, and the sun DID rise in the east. Good thing you peasants elected ME, for my policies prevented the sun from burning out and the mood from spinning out of control into the earth!” And all the sheep said, “Praise obama for surely his wisdom saved us”. And the beauty of it is……when things did go right…he uttered the words, “me”, “my”, “I’, hundreds upon hundred of times. And when his policies failed:…he uttered, “yeah, but Bush…..” So, please, Mike…..get off the “8 years of Bush” mantra. Makes you sound just like obama.

Yep, phantomniter….he DID increase the size of government….in response to the attack and murder of over 3000 of our fellow Americans and guests from other parts of the world. You write your comment as though that were a bad thing. I enjoy how you guys on the left keep on spinning and recreating history through (mis)interpretation. Case in point: “his job creation was low 3 million….” Well, of course the job creation was low during those first 6 years. We had such a high employment rate that corporations could not find workers to fill jobs. And you say that as though it were a bad thing. You gusy whine about the “tax cuts for the rich”….my takehome pay increased over $6000 a year…that’s $500 a month for me. I’m not rich. And your last statement, “..they are spending the tax payers money”….if you really think about it, Bush’s tax cuts were as he said, “returning the citizens’ money to them”. The “rich got richer”? So what? I got richer too. And had more of the folks in my tax category thought about saving instead of “gotta get it now”, they probably would have gotten richer also. Please phantomniter…you can fool some the folks in here with your boilerplate talking points from the DNC, but (and I’m asking nicely) please don’t insult my intelligence by posting half stories as some sort of prooof that things were bad during the first 6 years of Bush. I lived through those times as a solidly “middle class” earner. I would go back to those days in a heartbeat. I am a relatively intelligent guy. I’ve got a 40 year background in nuclear engineering, I am a licensed pilot and paramedic. I am a SCUBA diver at the Rescue level, and I’m well travelled. I really do have trouble understanding why you (and others on the left) have issues with people (like me) who have worked hard and have some degree of financial success. When I was growing up, our nation looked up to financially successful men and women. They were held up as role models: proof that there was some way out of the bad side of the tracks. Now, for some reason, you guys want to villify them instead of emulating them. And that’s really really sad. I think that for the most part, you find it easier to bring everyone DOWN to a common denominator instead of having to put in effort to help others UP. A hand out is easier to accept than a hand up….requires less commitment, i suppose. I’m tired of this crappy class warfare obama has instigated with the help of the press and willing tools that post half-truths and outright lies. Wall Street? Look it up. Most of them are Democrats and the majority of their political contributions went to the DNC….yet, ask any one of the geniuses involved in OWS….they will associate the Wall Street Millionaires with the GOP. Kinda funny, don’t you think? Kanye West visited the unwashed masses today….to show his “solidarity”……..dressed in $1000 dollar blue jeans and $5000 bling. Yep, he has GOT to be one of those nasty old Republicans, right? Finally, even with all of your finger pointing to Bush, you totally ignored the spine of the entire issue: The crap hit the fan shortly after the Dems took over the congress….yet you guys insist on giving them a pass. Simply amazing……….Have a good night.

=======================================
LOL! … Oh give me a break NCPILOT, phantomniter didn’t write his comment “as though the establishment of Homeland Security were a bad thing.” He was simply point out the hypocrisy of Republicans always complaining about “government being too big”, and then EVERY SINGLE TIME we’ve had a Republican administration…. LOL!… guess what they do? ANSWER: “GROW GOVERNMENT”.

The other thing that phantomniter was pointing out was that things like a whole new FEDERAL DEPARTMENT… LOL!… we’re not talking just an “agency” here, we’re talking about a federal “DEPARTMENT”…. cost money!! Especially like the Department of Homeland Security, which added 3,000 people to the government payroll just for the department’s headquarters ALONE. …… and, of course, how did Republicans decide to pay for this new federal department? … LOL! … by “tax cuts” combined with LOTS of borrowing…. thus, George W. Bush’s debt increase of $4.9 Trillion. And guess what NCPILOT, those 3000 people need to work somewhere, right? Well guess what the Republicans in the House decided recently? ….. LOL! ….. They decided that they were not going to fund the requested funding for the Department of Homeland Security headquarters building. Yep… LOL!… the Department of Homeland Security requested $287.8 million in fiscal year 2011 for their headquarters building project, and received $77.4 million. For 2012, the DHS requested $160 million for the project, but the Senate proposed $56 million and the House offered a big “whopping” ZERO.

So, here we are with a new federal department, THAT REPUBLICANS CREATED, and then the new Republicans in the House of Representatives aren’t even willing to fund that department “not even a dime”, so they can consolidate all of their headquarters at one location instead of leasing 55 locations throughout the Washington D.C. area. …. LOL! … how ridiculous!

forest…how about doing yourself (and all of us) a favor and take a course in reading comprehension. Tee hee hee. Giggle. Giggle. LOL!! You lost most of your credibility as X repubby cutting and pasting what YOU assumed bolstered your arguments, but only proved how easily you are fooled by data. Then you lost the rest of your creds as georgie bushie regaling us with tales of your heroism in afghanistan, itaq, kurdistan, viet nam, and the little big horn. You ran away when you were called out, and whined that its not your fault you are too young to have really served. Then you insult the jewish people in NY9th district with ugly anti semitic comments, and when you were called on that, you claimed that it was okay because you were jewish….although a week earlier you were bragging about your atheism. What a chameleon wannabe you are. Even the new screen name you have adopted shows your ignorance about life. You seem to think that associating forrest gump to the gop is an insult. Stupid! Watch the movie, dummy, and you MIGHT realize that Forrest Gump was a very ADMIRABLE character….but tee hee hee, there IS that comprehension thing againthat you certainly lack. I am not going to say for sure, but i suspect that when i make comments to phantomniterand others that the last thing they crave is for YOU to come to rheir rescue. It seems to me that for the most part, they can present logical counterpoints on their own…and without the sophomoric and girly TEE HEE HEE! and LOL.

Newcountryman…….he already has one. No..two. oops, no three….Who knows? He makes up a new one minute by minute. A legend in his own mind. What he lacks in intelligence, he makes up for in silliness……”X repub because of Bush”…..yet he constantly brags about how much he hates Reagan also (perhaps he doesn’t realize that Reagan came before Bush?). Then “Georgie Bushie”??? Really? I’m sorta thinking….ummmm…..10th grade? And I almost busted a gut lauging (but not “LOL” “Tee Hee Hee”) when he chose “Forrest Gump is a Republican”, and actually thought that it was an insult to the right…as though we would be ashamed to be associated with a guy that overcame physical handicaps, turned out to be the number one trendsetter of the time and a touching proch swing philosopher. A man who was a war hero and went on to become a very successful entrpreneur should embarrass us? A character whose passion for less fortunate people should be emulated? See? I really don’t think that X-Repub knows ANYTHING about the character, Forrest Gump…he just thought it was really cool when he saw the name on whatever left wing talking point site he goes to to cut and paste his rants. Saying “Forrest Gump is a Republican” is about as insulting to the GOP as saying, “Mother Theresa is a Catholic” is to the Pope. If he REALLY wanted to insult a group of people, perhaps his next name change should be, “barak obama is a democrat”….But foolish minds that endeavor first to insult others rather than present good ideas of their own simply showcase their own lack of substance. I’ve noticed obama has pretty much adopted the same philosophy: “I might not be any good, but those other guys really suck”

Thanks, Arkie…I’m surprised that the post has stayed visible for so long. Usually when i have a “discussion” with georgie-girl, my comments (and of course, they are always meant in the nicest way) seem to disappear as soon as georgie realizes that (AGAIN) he’s let his alligator mouth write a check that his salamander arse can’t cover.

The Advantage of Cain’s 9 percent national sales tax proposal, is that it ends the hidden sales tax that is already in every item that you purchase. Hidden taxes are levied upon the goods at some point during the production process and therefore raise the cost of the goods sold. However, this tax is never revealed directly to the consumer, who simply pays a higher price for the good, not knowing that part of that price is due to this tax. In every product and service that you buy, you pay embedded taxes in additional to any applicable sales taxes. For example, 51.20% of the price of Gasoline is tax. Bicycles have 11% in taxes included in the selling price. Peanut Butter is said to have 143%. Unlike a state sales tax, which is an add-on tax that increases the price of goods and services, this is a replacement tax. It replaces taxes that are already embedded in selling prices. By replacing higher marginal rates in the production process with lower marginal rates, marginal production costs actually decline, which will lead to prices being the same or lower, not higher. Cain’s 999 tax plan is fair. 9 percent income tax (Everyone pays only 9 percent. Currently 47% of Households pay no Federal Taxes at all.). 9 percent national sales tax (eliminates the hidden embedded taxes replacing it with a fair 9 percent tax. Boosts the economy by lowering retail prices. Creates jobs). 9 percent Corporate tax (eliminates all of the loop holes that businesses use to avoid paying taxes – eliminates capital gains tax – creates jobs). Since Corporations would no longer have to pay capital gains taxes, they would no longer have to include those in the price of products or services to recoup their losses and the savings filter on down to us.. Lower priced products means that people will spend more. Factories will need more employee’s, and new manufacturing facilities will be needed to meet demand. It’s a good plan.
