"Watching Democrats explain what they've done for the past two years, he laughed, will be "one of the greatest comedies."
"I can only sit here and imagine how they're gonna run," he said. "They were handed the ball and couldn't take it 10 yards down the field. They're in for a huge ass-whooping."

"While commentators and pundits might reflect that Joe Biden's trip to Israel has forever shifted America's relationship with its erstwhile ally in the region, the real break came in January, when David Petraeus sent a briefing team to the Pentagon with a stark warning: America's relationship with Israel is important, but not as important as the lives of America's soldiers."

New Jersey Governor Proposes Steep Spending Cuts
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/1…"To close a deficit that he asserted was approaching $11 billion, Governor Christie called for the layoffs of 1,300 state workers, closings of state psychiatric institutions, an $820 million cut in aid to public schools, and nearly a half-billion dollars less in aid to towns and cities. He also suspended until May 2011 a popular property-tax rebate program, breaking one of his own campaign promises."
"The budget would probably mean higher property taxes for most homeowners, at least in the short term, as local governments try to make up for the diminished state financing. But the governor is also proposing constitutional amendments and legislation to cap property taxes and spending at the local, county and school-district level."
"Mr. Christie’s budget would squeeze those with lower incomes by eliminating cash welfare for the able-bodied, imposing new $310 deductibles and doubling some drug co-payments for Medicaid patients, cutting state-financed school breakfasts and rental assistance and trimming the state’s earned-income tax credit to 20 percent of the federal benefit, from 25 percent."

Teabaggers want their country back. You know the one they lost when the South lost the war...and we've STILL had to deal with their whining, "I'm entitled 'cause I'm white" bullshit ever since.

I'm stunned. A few hundred morons with badly drawn signs, racist views straight outta the 19th century and no grasp whatsoever on reality get major facetime on all the news media, but when a million people showed up to protest the Iraq war it didn't even make the nightly news.
Liberal media my fucking ass.

I'm kinda stuck on Gov. Christie's budget in NJ...
Would the conservatives on this thread agree with his proposals? Is it really ethical to add significant stress to the poor and disadvantaged in order to prevent more taxes to the rich?
I don't understand the fundamental idea of applying fiscal pressure to the educational system, for instance, while avoiding pressure to the wealthy. Is it not best to suggest that, when your country and/or state is in jeopardy, it is better to tell the rich that it's time to not be as rich, and take the hit?
That seems to be the jist of his budget.
That being said, I do believe that, in any fair society, there should be compromise. I'm just a little surprised by the lopsidedness of this.
- I mean...seriously? Close all state psychiatric hospitals? Totally cold-blooded and callous.luckyorphan

Nearly One-Third of Doctors Could Leave Medicine if Health-Care Reform Bill Passes, According to Survey Reported in New England Journal of Medicine
http://www.cnsnews.com/news/arti…More than 29 percent (29.2) percent of the nearly 1,200 doctors who responded to the survey said they would quit the profession or retire early if health reform legislation becomes law. If a public option were included in the legislation, as several liberal Senators have indicated they would like, the number would jump to 45.7 percent.
- welcome yourself to the land of sh*t doctors if that happens...********
- i bet 29% are all-talk. they're not going to quit their profession.bulletfactory

It's the drinking of the "free market" koolaid. It's the absolute personal identification with the idea that "What's good for me is good for the rest of society, and it will all work out. It's the invisible hand at work. Everyone does their rational best, and thus we get the best of all possible worlds."
That's really it. That's the philosophy behind these incredibly short-horizon policies at financial institutions, political parties
Raise your hands if you've read "Wealth of Nations".
*raises hand
Who else? You SunWork? You JazX? Is it buried there underneath your pile of racist cartoons?
There's nothing in there about this philosophy that so many use Smith
Smith actually saw a roll for a robust government providing the environment for capital to operate in. Free markets depend on robust governments.
The whole point of the financial aspects of the Enlightenment experiment where to tear away control of resources and commodities from the nobility. That rent seeking behavior is in fact in direct opposition to man's freedom.
And everything modern "free market" corporatism does is try and seek rent controlled behavior. The extension of copyrights and patents beyond a reasonable term. The creation of "financial instruments" to not aid the betterment of society (the common good) but rather to enforce obscene and unsustainable monetary slavery on wage earners.
The incredibly brilliant part is to get numbskulls like SumWork ("I've lost my house! I owe the IRS!) thinking that it is in fact Big Bad Government or anyone else on he perceives to be a "lower class" than him to be the root of his problem.
No brother, you've been atomized and tricked into thinking that whatever you think you do to best help yourself at the expense of your neighbor is also in your overall "best interests" without looking at the big picture.
As David Lee Roth once said "He who knows how will always work for he who knows why."
If you don't know why the US industrial sector has been gutted, why real wages have fallen, and in whose interest that all is, then you are blind.
And if you want to point with overconfident, blind certainty that it's "them commies in the US government, like that Barrack fellow" you just aren't seeing the big picture.
"...all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."
Stop being accustomed to the bullshit that is all around you.

So let me get this straight JazX, so Obam ais handed a trillion dollar war..no wait, scratch that, TWO trillion dollar wars, one in which there have been 8 years of conservative lead "rah-rah Support the Troops, Kill the evil doers" media saturation, and within one year you expect this wet behind the ears newborn to go against the Pentagon, budgetary momentum and the entire conservative media machine and just pull out?
Is that your argument..
Baecuse, wow, imagine if Obama did pull out of Iraq and Afghanistam just like that *snaps fingers*.
Why I could keep your cartoon there and just change the headline to "Obama carries the hippies burden" and you would be posting it just the same...because you don't give a flying fuck about whether we're in Afghanistan, Iraq or not, you just have kneejerk instinctive reaction to be a conservative small dicked douchebag without a thought in your imaginary polish girlfriend loving head.
Suck on my preachers cock you intellectual midget.
