She was a hack. 

Well I have... and marx, hitler, lenin, mussolini, tao, alinski, wilson, fdr, shaw... and countless others.

Again... what's the big diff?

The difference is HUGE.  You just refuse to accept that.  Rand was a mentor to Greenspan.  You can easily see where that led us.  And I've read Rand also...although it was hard to get through without puking.

Funny..... I just get a hollow feeling in my side whenever I read your posts... I wonder why that is darling'?

If the voters keep voting in tea-partiers  and politicians  that don't give a damn about the average American, something will happen to force change on the country.
Only time will tell how this experiment in Democracy will turn out.

That was what all you supposedly enlightened progressive liberals assured us was happening five years ago and the situation appears to have only gotten worse.

God help us during the next...

You're an ignorant dumbass.  What part of "economy in freefall" is hard for you to understand?  Of course the situation got worse...that was the point.  And as much as you hate to admit it, the economy has improved with Obama at the helm...not particularly to the benefit of the majority, but at least it has improved and not stagnated.  

My background is in all these areas...banking, advertising, construction, real estate.  That doesn't completely sum it up, but I can damn sure tell you that I know what the hell I'm discussing here.  

Obviously not true and never has been. If this isn't stagnation and malaise, I'd love to know what it is.


Who's working?
Labor participation rate lowest in 34 years! During which time we not only grew by births but illegal immigrants.

I think it was stalin that called communism "international socialism" and fascism "national socialism".

Pretense of capitalism isn't a free market.

What's the big difference? Just a bunch of ism authoritarian methods to control every aspect of peoples lives.

Y'all really should audit a history class or read some books... or somethin.


Now that was funny. If man organizes government, it is evil. PK thesis is simple and completely whacked, but he has the simple part down. Fascist government = evil......socialistic government=evil..........dictatorship=evil........democratic representative government=evil.........monarchy=evil..........therefore all governments are evil. I could see PK building his leggos as a kid........you mean mommy they go together?

You really are dense... all while our govt has become sooo complex and unwieldy that it is not representing citizens.

If you can't see a direction our country is going... nobody will be able to point it out to you. Govt is a public service.

Our system of governance is broken.  What are we going to do about it?

so obama has no responsibility in this?

I'm not saying that, either.  But the biggest perp was Bush.  That's why the economic meltdown occurred near the end of his presidency.  Then he handed off two wars and an economy in freefall to Obama, plus he sat there in the last couple of months producing signing statements that pretty  much gutted every agency he hadn't rendered impotent, with the help of his partners in crime...such as his daddy.  You can think whatever you want (I'm sure you will anyway), but the Bush family has a long and sordid history of crime.  You can believe me or not, but if you really research their history, you will come to hate them as well.

You'd have an easier time if you finally accepted the FACTS and TRUTH.

If it is the Bush family that has such a "long and sordid history of crime", why are so many of President Barack Hussein Obama's friends and associates convicted felons or felons currently serving time.  Have you looked at the history of all the fine folks associate with President William Jefferson Clinton and where they ended up?

What about President Obama's father?  You're saying he is a fine example of a father?

I know how outraged you get when confronted with the FACTS...such is life.

You can KMA, you stupid Nazi.  I'm going to bed now.  I hope you can't sleep because of all your lying.

Now PLEASE share with us all exactly what was a lie in my post. Dang those FACTS and TRUTH again....

Easy......you use the proven propaganda technique of association to slander the reputation of another. When rendered into its purest form it is simply the big lie. The Germans perfected this technique in pre world war 2 propaganda, and you continue to use this dishonest technique on this forum. If you reached in the bank till and stole a hundred dollars, and the police came......you would argue truths and facts, but it would be the lie which was most important. President Obama has zero association for criminal acts of his minister's daughter, yet you attempt to associate her bad behavior with the president.....the Nazis were at least clever and careful not to make the association too remote. Goebbels would have you back in propaganda 101........

Yes.  Bush's grandfather's business had close dealings with the Nazi's. Clinton's real father was a total jerk, and Obama comes from a dysfunctional family history if ever there was one.

I don't care about any of that. Of the three of them, Clinton was probably the best president and I think history will see him that way.  Even at that, he favored NAFTA, he didn't do the unions any good at all, and he was a  big money, big government president. Bush was a god-awful president, in his own right, absent any talk about his ancestors.  What he did, he did himself. His father had the same ancestors but wasn't nearly as bad a president as the son.  Obama has been a huge disappointment to us progressives, but I can't for the life of me figure out why you conservatives hate him. He is not responsible for his father's deeds any more than his daughters will be responsible for their fathers. He's sure not responsible for anything his pastor or his pastor's daughter does.
If God really meant that the "Sins of the father's will be visited on their sons," he wasn't any kind of God I want to worship. Newborn babies are too cute to get a dirty slate when they come into this world.  We really shouldn't hold people's parentage against them in this day and age, not even on this crazy ass forum.

Keep in mind that it was President Barack Hussein Obama who implored us to judge him by the people with whom he associated himself.
