You Might Be A Conservative

GREAT COMMENTS LONER!!! WELL SAID.

Loner and myself [now that I'm a conservative], we don't care about your logic and facts much, dumb libs!! We talk about 'nobama' and 'oz' and stuff, and then we high five!!

OH, and WE DON'T CARE if the libs are the ones who are open to new ideas like letting 2 homosexuals who love each other get married, we STILL are going to say that the libs are the ones who are close minded, even though it really doesn't make alot of sense!!!

Stupid liberals.

Yeah, wasted time "hero worship of the Great and Wonderful Oz" Writing that is wasted time. I see no response about what Obama has cost Badnewsbear so I guess he realizes that he best to better fact checking.

Why waste your time badnews. There is no convincing a closed mind like most of the left have of right from wrong. As long as they have their hero worship of the Great and Wonderful Oz oops sorry that would be Obama and Cuomo they think are great and wonderful. Hope they get sent back to never never land or oz soon.

Badnewsbear, I knew you couldn't come up with one cent this administration has cost you. Just more hypothetical hogwash. A fee here and a fee there - tell me what "fees" have never gone up during a republican administration? If we are going to discuss fees we will find just as many on both sides that have risen and stayed the same. So another question: how many guns are you going to have to give to the government? ZERO, that's how many! Yet, the righties rant and rave about "don't you take my guns away." When there are no big issues to complain about (eg: starting an unnecessary war, killing its leader and leaving it in turmoil and leaving it friendly with your REAL enemies) then you have to cry "don't take my guns! Well, how many are you giving up when our troops come knocking at your door to search your house? How lame.

Howard, like your friends, you truly do have a reading/comprehension issue. Please point out, apecifically, where I stated that my taxes have gone up? What I said is that they don't need any new ideas on how to tax people. The idea being that every time you turn around the dems are pushing a tax increase or for increased fees which are indeed forms of taxes. Proposals for junk food taxes, soda taxes, ammo taxes and on and on and on. It's not just Federal, it's at every level. Any way they can think of to take more, or control behavior (ie. sin taxes) is what they are for and what Cyprus is doing is nothing short of highway robbery, which means it will be in some Dems files just waiting for the right crisis to whip it out. This is perfectly exhibited by the federal gun control proposal. You're not really naive enough to believe that they wrote that up quick do you? No, they had in in the hopper just waiting for the right tragedy to come along so they could pounce on it.

"Like they needed any other ideas on how to tax the people further." Tell me, Badnewsbear, exactly how have your taxes increased? I suppose you will use the FICA tax that was temporarily decreased from its onset. Where have you had to pay 1 cent more since January, 2009?

Watch out! How long before Mr. Tax & Spend and his trolls, Dirty Harry and Nasty Nancy, try to follow the lead of Cyprus? Cyprus just decided to "take" 10% from all bank accounts over $100,000 and 6.75% from everyone else's bank accounts. All in the name of covering their outrageous debts!! Like they needed any other ideas on how to tax the people further.

Far Right Publications? Seriously? When did Business Insider Magazine become a Far Right Publication? Also, I have no complaints with people getting an unemployment check, they've earned it by working and I don't recall ever saying I supported giving funds to Oil Companies. Not sure where you got those lies. Typical Lib accusations when you've got nothing to support your claims. What I do have a problem with is the disease of Generational Welfare. I support ending ALL welfare programs and implementing workfare programs. Why should a useful citizen receive 26 weeks of unemployment, which they've earned by working, but slugs with no ambition that want to "job" the system live on welfare for their entire lives. It's pathetic and is crushing our country.

Badnewsbear, Yawn, any more quotes from mindless far right publications?

You might be a far right wing nut if you complain about someone collecting $500 a week unemployment while looking for work but you don't give a flip about subsidizing oil companies 4 billion dollars a year.

That is a fact - put that in your pipe and smoke it!

"How Clinton Destroyed The Economy The bottom line is that the signature achievement of the Clinton years (the surplus) turns out to have been a deep negative. For this drag on GDP was being counterbalanced by low household savings, high household debt, and the real revving up of the Fannie and Freddie debt boom that had a major hand in fueling the boom that ultimately led to the downfall of the economy."

"I think it is safe to say that we are still suffering the harmful effects of the Clinton budget surpluses," says Stephanie Kelton, an economics professor at the University of Missouri Kansas City.

Howard, it is clear that you are a mindless drone with absolutely no education or background in economics, who sits around and listens to O's propaganda outlets. First off, you haven't done your homework. It's accepted fact that the whole problem started as a result of the housing bubble, whish is Clinton's. Bush did no one any favors by spending way too much and this friggin' idiot doubled what he spent and there's no end in sight. All this admin has done is lower interest rates to the point where money is basically free, so it's flooding into the market causing prices to rise. This only helps those with money in the market, which isn't the majority. What do you think is going to happen when things reach a point where they need to bring rates back up? It'll be disastrous. The only thing this idiot will ever get a thank you from me for, is if he resigns.

You are the one in denial that your beloved Bush didn't cause this mess after Clinton balanced the budget. We would be in our nation's worst depression if it wasn't for the stimulus. Every indicator shows we are on the road to recovery - so deny away Badnewsbear, deny away. While you are at it you can send President Obama a thank you letter that you are now not standing in a bread line.

Howard, your stupid hat is apparently on permanently. You brought up "Bill". "don't you watch your other buddy Bill?" Helloooo??? And you really are in denial. How can you even try to spin the fact that this lousy POS has added more debt in 4 years than Bush did in 8? You can't and your BS about war and infrastructure is nothing short of deflection. You defend the indefensible and you support policies that are crushing this country under a mountain of debt that we'll never be able to pay back. How about your lively party finally proposing a budget, after being in violation of Federal law for 4 years, and it NEVER balances. SPEND, SPEND, SPEND, TAX, TAX, TAX!!! That's all they know. Useless wastes of living tissue.

And a drunk and killer. Should have stood trial but his name got him out of that. Anyone else left the scene of a fatal accident to sober up first would more then likely have gone to prison. Where he deserved to be. With heroes like him you don't need enemies.

Badnewsbear, what the freak are you talking about? "Bill"? I guess my stupid hat is on today. I blamed infrastructure as our debt problem? You better get back on your meds. If anything I blame 2 wars Bush started unnecessarily for a good portion of the debt. And now that we have drones that will save many combat lives you conservatives are screaming we are going to bomb a cafe here at home. Don't be ignorant by saying "Holder said we might". If Bush had used the drones they would be a great asset. Helicopters with living people in harms way or drones - seems like a no brainer to me. Then again us liberals don't use our brains, now do we? And Ted Kennedy was, and will go down in history as a great politician!

McCain might have been a great man, he was a hero in my books for service to his country, don't think much of him as a politician and Ted Kennedy was the lowest form of human there ever was. Right along side with other killers.

And how is calling the gift of $250 million and fighter jets to a know terrorist organization "spinning" it? When I give to the cancer society, I'm supporting cancer research. By that logic, when you give money and weapons to a terrorist, you are supporting what? That's right terrorism.

Howard, I didn't see "Bill", but I'm sure he let someone provide their opinion, but I'm also sure that he quickly corrected them. If you are so naive to think that all of this debt is a result of infrastructure updates, you really need to wake up. Have we forgotten the famous "shovel ready wasn't quite as shovel ready as we thought" moment? All of it was wasted. How about the millions upon millions wasted to try to boost green energy companies, all of which went bankrupt. You are kidding yourself if you think this debt is "better" than the debt of previous president's. Exactly what flavor what the kool-aid the day they provided that talking point to you? I've heard it repeated over and over again by the lib/dem talking heads and it's absolute nonsense. Debt is debt and by the time he's done, our debt will meet or exceed the total GDP number and, if the economy does recover and interest rates start rising, there is no way they can cover the interes

Neither party will change for the better. very little I lean left on and am truly more of a conservative then liberal. I still believe in God, Country and family as the most important things in life. I hate what most liberals believe and hate what the republican and democrat parties have become. As I have said the Patriot Act was the worst restriction on liberties ever and that was put in by bush but renewed by Obama so both are equally guilty. the Safe Act and all legislation like it are unconstitutional as far as I am concerned as is the Patriot Act and any like it. I can not name one political leader that has the interests of the American people in the forefront. And nothing you say can change that.

Really Howard, Clinton didn't cause the housing collapse due to lowering requirements for a mortgage? This is a NY Times article from 1999 saying he did and people expressing concerns about the problems it might create. *******ww w.nytimes.co m/1999/09/30/business/fannie-mae-eases-credit-to-aid-mortgage-lending.htm l
