That’s right. Obama and his lackeys tried to use their influence to hide the dire economic circumstances of their profligate spending — essentially, to hide the truth from you.
And when ObamaCo aren’t doing it themselves, the media serves as its proxy in covering up the Administrations many machinations meant to aid in the “transformation” of our society into a tyranny headed by the Leviathan state.
Our country is under attack. Bloodless so far, but there are stirrings at the margins, as WI showed us. This is a coup attempt. And yet the GOP still lacks the political will to take any kind of provocative — or even principled — measures to protect our liberties, our property, our individual autonomy, or the fruits of our labor.
Obama is giving speeches in which he’s telling young people that the government can’t continue to spend more than it takes in. This, after having just fought the GOP on statistically insignificant cuts to a budget he proposed that includes $1.7 TRILLION in deficit spending.
And yet the leaders on our side can’t do anything with this? Why hasn’t John Boehner taken to the floor and said, in light of the President’s newly found fiscal sensibilities, he is going to scrap the unserious budget deal he brokered and re-introduce a budget proposal that cuts out that $1.7 TRILLION in deficit spending? After all, the President is going around essentially telling Congress this is what it needs to do.
Again, why does our leadership allow this President to run roughshod over them? To bully them?
Can no one here play this game?
the game is fixed. we shouldn’t play.

Can yu imagine the OUTRAGE if Bush had tried to intimidate a rating agency to suppress bad economic news prior to a campaign speech?
Every time that Barcky and his carnies claim they proposed 4 trillion dollars in cuts, the only rational response is to look them in the eye and call them a liar.
Call and raise.
Jeff, as much as it pains me to say it, it’s this kind of faulty thinking that the shameless whores in DC are hearing.
Once in, we’re in — the numbers do not lie. The only way out is collapse.

In large part, yes. There are some bright spots, though.
The Donald can. That’s why he’s blowing up the polls. People are starving for someone who gets it and isn’t afraid to say so.
Surely, we can do better than that. Right?
Reading up thread, the Hermanator can play too. But Baracky’s media doesn’t give the brother any love.
The Donald may not be who he seems.
Oh, I know just who Trump is and if it comes up Donald v. Barack, I’m either voting 3rd Party or writing in Dagny Taggart. I’m just saying. Trump is blowing up for a reason, and we’d do well to take heed of it.
well the donald is the shelling you do before attacking.
look the donald in 6 months is gone. he’s prepping the battlefield. ain’t no money in being chief stooge.
Yeah, and this is not his first dance. I just hope it’s 6 months and not a year. The Donald could screw things up pretty well, especially if he’s got that independent run stuck in his craw.
oh good g-d greta has the dog rovester on. “we need to shift 5% of the vote” fu skin head.

Serious question: at what point does this sort of naked intimidation become an impeachable offense?

*Surely, we can do better than that. Right?*
Exactly. We need a blunt speaker with much less of a sideshow past. I don’t take Trump seriously but he certainly is causing a stir on the left. The same stir could be caused by a straight candidate on the right. Its interesting (and maybe a little telling) that the GOP straight talkers like Ryan and Rubio are waiting until 2016 to make a run. I could see Paul Ryan winning in 2012 solely on the strength of his committment to cutting spending. Throw in a reformation and significantly shortening of the tax code and he’d be can’t miss.
“Serious question: at what point does this sort of naked intimidation become an impeachable offense?”
Um, when a Republican does it?
Okay, that was not a serious answer. I don’t know the serious answer.
It is, as the saying goes, “the only game in town”, Newrouter.
