...and there is no sign that Mr. Obama is any different from the past democrats that sat in the oval office. The only exception is that he has 100% compliance within his party and a majority in congress that will pass anything Mr. Obama supports.
How hypocritical is it that Mr. Obama continues to remind the general public of the deficit he inherited, but then spends so recklessly that the possibility of having a balanced budget anytime within his term is utterly impossible. How hypocritical is it that the libs called the recent spending bill that was passed a "stimulus package". How does $20 billion dollars towards food stamps stimulate the economy? What jobs will be created by increasing food stamp allowances? This is only one example of many within that spending bill, but I'll try to avoid making this post unneccisarily long. One of you left wingers need to help me understand what our President is attempting to do. The view from the cheap seats here in right field makes the picture look exactly like I thought it would look before the election took place; the liberal democrats want a socialist republic in place of our cherished capitalistic society. Let's continue to drain the rich to pay for the poor. Let's continue to increase taxes on large corporations that have been laying off employees at an enormous pace. Let's increase benefits to the unemployed instead of finding ways to provide jobs for them. I'm ranting a bit, but one thing is clear. Barack Obama scares the living shit out of me. JP, UGB, anybody, please help me feel better about the job he's doing. And someone explain to me how the fuck he has a 67% approval rating. They must have done the polling at a foreclosure seminar or a foodbank. |

at 12:45 PM, Sunday May 8, 2016 EDT Cruz's problem was going too hard on the religion. I understand his reasons behind it. He felt that everyone else would vote for him regardless and all he needed was the evangelical vote to win the general.
Trump's been planning this run for twenty years. I'm sure at least half of the 17 republicans running were doing so at the behest of Trump. They might have been unwitting in their help as in Trump had friends donate to their cause or speak in their ear to motivate them to run. Whatever the case, Trump is showing he is much more politically savvy than most people expected. Rumor is Hillary is gonna pick Warren to run as her VP. I guess that's one way to sink your boat faster. Warren is as elitist as it gets. She gets paid 700k to teach one class every two years at a university and then goes out and says college tuition is too high? That's just the start of her credibility issues. |

at 11:00 AM, Sunday May 15, 2016 EDT if the ballot is for Donald Bum-Wig Trump vs. Hillary Rod-Ham Clinton, then I'll just write-in Aunt Jemima and know that my vote only actually counts for state referendum questions anyway. Massachusetts almost always votes overwhelmingly democrat. The electoral college is designed to give the wealthy voters much more influence as well. Most Kdicers will understand if you really look at the demographics of how districts are divided.
Basic strategy: As many poor people possible crammed into one district as possible - as few wealthy people scattered throughout as many districts as possible. Net effect if done correctly -> 30%-40% less voting power in districts with low class income. As far as explaining the last 8 yrs, let me put it this way - It doesn't matter who you elect president. The president ultimately has very little power compared to big business and bankers. There is a list of things a president must do as well as a list of things that must not be done if they don't want to end up like JFK - who was assassinated days after deciding to print his own debt-free money to pay off the national debt, a big no-no these days. |

at 12:37 PM, Tuesday May 17, 2016 EDT I believe that is overly pessimistic. The country just hasn't had any real leadership in quite some time. Assuming Trump will be a good leader (and I'm not saying he will be), it is possible to change the political landscape with a wave election.
