I said; can I do this ? And then I remembered President Obama say “Yes we can”.. And then I remembered him saying, “Fired up, ready to go” , And then Daddy said ” Let’s go”. And it worked, We put all those people to work.!
So we were just doing what Obama said to do.
Hey… it was Obama’s fault..he is killing off all the industries..he has ruined aviation and put thousands out of work by damming corporate aviation..The objective of the liberals is simple to understand, expand the entitlement class to maintain power, at the expense of the production class. When you have a built in 35-40%, all one must do is coopt some 10-15% useful idiots, and voila, you have the 52% secured by Obama a year ago in the Presidential election.
AVATRBR seems to have forgotten the 8 years of W & Crew sinking a vibrant economy, wasting and pocketing the surplus Clinton left him to work with, and starting two very expensive wars with little to no definition.
The huge fortune flushed down the toilets in Iraq and Afghanistan could have been well spent here in the USA on our own infrastructure, putting Americans to work, and paying for health care for those that are now un-insured.
Barrack Obama had nothing to do with the balloon guy’s weird attempt at fame.
And, yes, the child is vomiting. They tend to do that when they are caught doing something wrong on this kind of level. What a great set of parents this child has. This is a prime example of a man and a woman destroying marriage here in Colorado. And, look at how this couple is raising these children. They should have their tubes tied and the children moved to foster care. Just don’t send them to the Catholic church where their chances of being molested is quite high. (Just look at the history of that church.)
The economy did not start to sink until the democrats took over two years before Bush left office..Bush inherited a poor economy from Clinton, it was bolstered for his first six years, the dems got control of the congress, Frank and Dodd allowed their cronies at Fannie and Freddie give people loans that could never pay them back. That housing money caused a shortage of housing causing the Real Estate market to boom with anybody and their dog getting a loan..Housing prices went through the roof..Then people couldn’t pay their mortgage..All these bad mortgages were bundled with good mortgages and sold all over the world including the large banks that were forced to make the loans through the use of threats and force by acorn and their criminal partners. If you can’t understand this you are in denial, a useful idiot or part of the entitlement class sucking from the public trough..
Congress is a cesspool of liars, thieves, inside traders, traitors, drunks (one who killed a staffer, yet is still revered), criminals, and other low level swine who, as individuals (not all, but many), will do anything to enhance their lives, fortunes and power, all at the expense of the People of the United States and its Constitution, in order to be continually re-elected.
wake up…we who pay the tax, work hard and employ people are tired of supporting you.
I guess Anatrbr doesn’t consider all the billions we’ve wasted, and continue to waste, on Iraq, part of the economy, since it doesn’t seem to appear in his analysis.
Now Larry King represents the GOP” How did Larry King get in this discussion?
avatrbr, your interpretation of recent history is wrong on so many levels, it defies credulity. But, on the other hand, you’ve actually proved the intent of the toon.

I know a saint-Bernard who vomited a toaster, along with many weird things he ate.
Well, those are weird by human standards, of course, but not by canine ones.

No, that is Nick Griffin, leader of the British National party. An ultra-right, racist party.
This isn’t Godwin’s Law being evoked because Griffiths was - but only in the past according to him - a Nazi sympathiser.
He is in the news because he was given airtime on the BBC’s Question Time programme, which generated a lot of polemic, protests and debate this past week in the news. If you follow UK newspapers, as I know you do, I’m sure you would know about this.
Both, however, do have glass eyes. Gordon Brown lost his eye in a rubgy game incident, Griffiths allegedly lost his eye in a gunshot incident.
Okay, they sound racist. Cool picture on BNPsite But they also appear they are reacting to a country that is floundering into chaos as their amorally-correct government capitulates to every whim and reason it comes in contact with.
Ugh, so simple to blame either side. The main issue was the both sides democrats and republicans believed the line that the market will solve itself. Which is stupid becuase thats like saying, “oh, we dont need a speed limit because everyone will be careful enough to not get into crashes”.
People are stupid and greedy and that is why we ended up where we are, and which is why we will do it again, because people are stupid and greedy. So stupid and greedy in fact that people will convince themselves that it is good to be stupid and greedy.
What people need is to wake up, get educated and start making hard decisions like, capping salaries (nobody NEEDS more than an anual seven figure income, and that is being generous), getting people real, cheap (if not free) healthcare and education, and cleaning up the earth (and not because of some climate change hoopla, but for the fact that cleaning up creates jobs, increases health and longevity and forces more effeciency and innovation in the system).
We need goals as a society, and profit is not a goal, its an endless game of chase your tail (Red Queen, anyone?), while zero emissions is a goal, which fosters innovation and ingenuity. For Americans to go to the moon was a completely unnessary goal (other than national pride) but was a goal that when accomplished generated some of the greatest technological innovations known to man.
C.A, exactly my point. There was no actual need to go to the moon, i mean once America got there all they did was plant a flag, scoop up some rocks, fire some golfballs and drive a bitchin’ moon buggy around, but otherwise it wasn’t the most necessary thing to do. But by setting a real goal, such as “lets go to the moon, because then we can rub it in the face of the Russians” is a great goal because it drove innovation. Now the greatest innovation is in the financial sector which only generates more profits, but add nothing of value to the planet (now one can say, well we can buy stuff with the money, but that doesnt lead to innovation, its just leads to more stuff).
And if you mean to say that I described Zimbabwe, then I suggest you reread you history, because although Zimbabwe may have attempted to instill some ideals of socialism into its national structure, does not mean that that was its downfall. Their downfall was mulitfaceted, when you consider its a very young country with a troubled colonial past.
