Just a small taste of ObozoPals' actual track records....
...To protect her family’s multibillion-dollar fortune, Pritzker’s enterprises park their money in the very same kind of offshore trusts
Obama attacked GOP rival Mitt Romney over. But Obama lapped up nearly
$800 million in campaign and inaugural funding raised by Pritzker. A
former Pritzker tax lawyer pioneered tax-avoidance strategies
for the family, which allowed them to pay $9 million in taxes instead
of $150 million in estate taxes after patriarch A.N. Pritzker died....
Goose/Gander. If Romney was a rich-boy-crook for that sort of thing, why isn't Ms. Pritzker?
Who said Romney was a crook?
ReplyDeletedad voted for a crook in the last election. good to know.
ReplyDeleteWell the Obama campaign called him a murderer. Isn't murder still a crime in the new Amerika?

ReplyDeleteJim, In was going to respond, but after all this time I have finally realized that it's a waste of time with you. You're a true believer. I wonder. Is there a line that your fellow progressives could cross that would open your eyes? I somehow doubt it. I don't take well with the way many respond to you here, but hey, I expect that out of most people these days, no matter what your politics. I just wonder what would make you say 'WTF?' and question your leftist leaders and Ministry of Truth 'reporters'.
ReplyDeletePardon me for being dense, Bill, but I don't see how my post warrants yours. All I did was question the premise that Romney was called a crook. I don't recall anyone accusing him of being a crook. Do you have any links to people calling him a crook?
ReplyDeleteOtherwise I don't see what my comment has anything to do with being a "true believer", whatever that means. As far as a line to cross or not to cross, "in what regard, Charlie"?
Here's what makes me say WTF: Who are these "leftist leaders" you are talking about? I'm a liberal. President Obama is a liberal trying to govern from the center. Most of his policies would be regarded as fairly centrist ideas if they were being proposed by Republicans. Many of his policies ARE Republican ideas. Most of his policies are supported by a majority of Americans. So either he is a centrist or America is a "leftist" nation.
Harry Reid makes me say WTF when he allows the minority party to block legislation that could help the nation grow economically. He allows the minority to block nominations to cabinet offices because they don't like the department Congress democratically put into law. He allows the majority to block dozens of judicial nominations of reasonable candidates approved by ABA and well respected by most legislators.
There's a lot of things that Democrats do or say that I don't agree with. But, in the end, it's a hell of a lot better than the alternative.
As far as "Ministry of Truth" reporters, I don't know what you're talking about. I watch a lot of different news shows on different networks. I read dozens of articles online everyday, articles written by a broad scope of political thinkers and reporters of all kinds.
Who's YOUR Ministry of Truth?
Harry Reid called him a crook.
ReplyDeleteI'm a liberal.
Understatement of the decade.
President Obama is a liberal trying to govern from the center.
Two lies. Obozo is a Marxist trying to govern from the Manifesto.
Please cite Reid calling Romney a crook. I don't believe he did.
ReplyDeleteUnderstatement of the decade Yawn. I doubt it.
I don't know who "Obozo" is but President Obama is not a Marxist.
There is no reasoning with trash like you, Jim. The discussion is over.
ReplyDeleteThe debate is over. It is a waste of time to even explain it to you.
The extermination of your ilk is the only way this country will survive.
Jim, you're NOT dense. I think that is what is frustrating. Much of the media, as well as Dem pols, insinuated that he was a crook, or somehow less than honorable. That tactic is used by savvy folks, admittedly in both parties, who can then say "I never said X was a Y".
ReplyDeleteHow can you call yourself a liberal? Do you believe in Liberty? If so, how can you think that a huge leviathan national government can do anything other than trample on Liberty, whether a progressive Democrat like Obama or a progressive Republican like Bush is in charge? Liberal is a term whose root is in Liberty. In today's world, however, meanings are twisted. Liberal is no longer about Liberty, but bending your knee to the State. You support a party that stifle's Liberty. Are the Republicans any better? On a National level, I'd say no. That's why I don't support the national party. They talk the talk, but rarely walk the walk.
The whole government makes me say WTF? They have been allowed to go so far beyond the limits set by the Constitution that I see the National Government almost as an enemy of Liberty.
No Jim. You're not dense.
A crook is someone who steals, a thief. Nobody ever insinuated that Romney was a thief. They said that he did not have empathy for the people who lost jobs because of some of the deals his company did. They said that he paid little or no taxes for a number of years. Nobody suggested he did either of these illegally.
ReplyDeleteHow can I call myself liberal? Dad seems to think that's an understatement. Liberals believe in liberty. Think about the Pledge of Allegiance that you and I recited everyday at the beginning of school. That pledge does not end with the word "liberty". There are four more words: "and justice for all".
For the life of me I can't think of a liberty that I have lost other than the incandescent light bulb thing. I suppose I've lost the liberty to get on an airplane without being scanned, but then I also don't have the liberty to drive my car through town at 120 MPH. Some liberties we willingly surrender for the greater good of our fellow Americans.
You support a party that stifle's Liberty.
That's simply absurd. That from someone who wishes to restrict the liberty of women to have control over their own bodies.
I see the National Government almost as an enemy of Liberty.
Well, that certainly says a lot. I happen to believe that "liberty and justice for all" speaks to a Nation and society that values both and understands that sometimes they exist in a delicate balance. I think that's what it means to be a Liberal.
There is no reasoning with trash like you, Jim. The discussion is over.

"The extermination of your ilk is the only way this country will survive."
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Adolph.
"Justice" is the first aim of any licit Government; but "justice" is founded on responsibilities FIRST, not "rights."
ReplyDeleteThe perversions of "justice" now current here have to do with the reversal of those.
Sounds like gibberish to me. Maybe you could elaborate.
ReplyDeleteNo quarter shall be given to you, Jim.
ReplyDeleteGet the fuck lost.

ReplyDeleteSo, according to you, Jim, Liberty is killing a baby in the womb, the most innocent and helpless among us. Precious. Liberty is stifling free speech through hate speech laws enforced selectively. I could go on, but why. It's a waste of time. Be well, and enjoy the utopia you've merited in Cali.
ReplyDeleteWe're doing just fine here in California, thanks. I'm not going to get into the forced birth issue. (BTW, I would submit that fetuses are not "among us", but...) We disagree at every level on that.
ReplyDeleteWhat hate speech laws?
Yeah, California is doing so great that its citizens are fleeing to other states in droves.
ReplyDeleteNo quarter, Jim. Extermination.

ReplyDeleteThe good news for Jim is that third world garbage continues to stream in, thereby inreasing his chances of being killed by an illegal alien. Car, knife, gun, doesn't matter.
The Koch financed Manhattan Institute.
ReplyDeleteNo racists here, for sure.
