Poor, Poor Obama.

once again, what the fuck are you talking about? i started this post silly!

You don't seem to know which thread you are in. You posted here regarding something in another thread.

You haven't figured that out yet? And you call me a numbskull? It's why I laugh at jokers like you Jeff. Sorry.

Anyone who votes republican who also makes less than $250,000 per year is voting AGAINST their self interest.

If you are not a "job creator" I.E. making more than the aforementioned $250,000 per year then you are NOTHING to the republicans.

Pretty simple really.

^^^^^very well put

 

[UncleBuck]

ps and before you call me a racist....he is half white

is your half white president lying?

whenever someone takes it upon themselves to repeatedly mention the skin color of the president without provocation and preemptively defend themselves as not racist, it is a sure sign that said person is not racist

jeff, seriously...what is wit the race baiting? is it so that when i call you out you can accuse me of playing the race card? and then cry about how hard it is to be a white male in america?

every thread you make is a joke.

Lemme get this straight, every time in the last 2.5ish years anyone's critical of the ONE, we were called racist. And now that I throw the preemptive race card, YOU DON'T GET IT? That's fucking hilarious.

your half brain dead, half white, half black, 100 percent affirmative action president isn't cutting the mustard.

He is an incompatent, bumbling fool who needs to be told what to think... just ask his teleprompter

he could probably spell "incompetent" correctly

and please show me where he earned his prestigious degrees thanks to 'affirmative action'. because that is a racially charged accusation, and pretty bigoted.

you are only called out as a racist when you post racist comments.

you are called ignorant when you don't post facts.



you are called oblivious when you don't pay attention to what's going on and preach on blindly.

On what basis? Please, do explain.

Before you do, realize that only 1/3 of republicans make over $250k per year and that most 'red states' are actually the poorer states?

judging from that graph and what you said about 1/3 of republicans, id say theres a large amount of income inequality in red states.

I don't know where you got that assumption from, enlighten me.

 

[Luger187]

I don't know where you got that assumption from, enlighten me.

well according to the graph, the average income is 30k. and you said 1/3 make over 250k. so that means there is a lot of poor people and 1/3 make over 250k

Well Cincos, I am not really sure what point you are trying to make with a 7 year old graph from be a gov that shows 20 states. But what I was saying is that republican tax policies are ALWAYS, without fail regressive. Our tax code has been getting tilted more towards the wealthy for the last 50 years. This is clearly evident today. They don't even try very hard to disguise it anymore.

The "job creators" are actually you and me. When WE go out and buy stuff thus creating demand businesses will start hiring. More demand=more sales=more jobs(eventually; because most business owners will pay overtime before adding staff). The best way to get our economy growing vibrantly again is to give away money by extending jobless benefits and rebuilding our infrastructure. We're one hairdryer away from a massive blackout.

It is a Constitutional Requirement that Congress pay any and all debts without question. I know, you only like that God Damn piece of paper when it suits you. Sorry, you don't get to cut and paste out of it. Go read the 14th until you understand it.

I'm not a Constitutional lawyer ... you may be, but I thought this was interesting. It appears that the non-partisan Congressional Research Service does not agree with this interpretation of the 14th Amendment

http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/inside-politics/2011/jul/13/crs-obama-14th-amendment-circumvent-debt-limit/

"It does not appear that the executive has the constitutional authority to borrow funds, even if they are for the express purpose of preventing a default on the debt," said CRS, which is the non-partisan advisory research arm of Congress.

Some commenters have argued that the 14th Amendment means the government cannot suspend payments and that President Obama can act to keep funding government even without congressional authorization.

CRS's experts said that language doesn't convey any new powers on the president to circumvent Congress when it comes to borrowing or spending.

"There appears to be no basis in the legislative history, or arguably in the structure of the Constitution itself, that can support an executive power to borrow funds," the research service said in the report, which was released to several congressional offices this week and was reviewed by The Washington Times

Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
Pretty neat huh?

So wonderful to be talked down to. Amazing, simply amazing.

So wonderful to be talked down to. Amazing, simply amazing.

first off, he wasn't even talking to you.

second off, you would only see that as 'being talked down to' if you really needed that explained to you. the person who asked that question brought it upon themselves by being ignorant of the constitution.

finally, cool substantive rebuttal, bro

OH, well forgive me for finding this to be condesending, uncle buckie.

it's only condescending if you are unfamiliar with the constitution. or even current news, for fucks sake.

if you follow either, it is not condescending, it is 'fact'.
