The 2012 and beyond Political Thread - Part 2

(the latest rock & roll cease and desist saga for the Republicans...just stick with country music, guys...) Twister Sister's Dee Snider Tells Paul Ryan Don't Use Our Song:
-
I've lost count of all the moments of hypocrisy in this election cycle (all Republican, by the way), but here's the latest. Remember back in the spring/summer when the President said virtually the same thing that Willard Romney said last night? Remember how the opportunistic GOP pounced on the President? The distinction between the two men is that Romney lauds tax havens: Romney: Big business is fine, helped by tax havens
-
Have read a lot of criticism of Romney in the media--gratifying--but also "Time" mag article said the GOP will raise so much money for the campaign, than the Dems that the GOP despite the poor choice of candidates has a viable shot at winning the White House. Hope that doesn't happen

Praise for "2016: Obama's America" "It's riveting! I sat on the edge of my seat the entire time. A triumph!" --Grand Imperial Wizard "Did I take everything this movie said at face value? YOU BETCHA!' --Sarah Palin "It was refreshing to see someone else distort the truth in advancing a conservative agenda." --Karl Rove "I was assured by one of my handlers that I was so overwhelmed by the power of this documentary, that I had to resist the urge to cry." --Mitt Romney "I liked that it was in color." --Rick Perry "It's encouraging that I'm not the only one that manipulates average Americans into thinking that anything other than a staunch conservative worldview is un-American." --Sean Hannity "Seeing the movie gave me a much-needed break from capitalizing on my mother's pseudo-success and pimping out my child for a quick buck!" --Bristol Palin "The movie was great, but it was even more rewarding to have talked the theater's owner into off-setting skyrocketing concession costs by replacing the discounted senior citizens' ticket rate with a voucher program." --Paul Ryan "I loved catching a matinee showing of "2016." Not only did I get half-price tickets, but I was able to sexually harass a young woman who entered the auditorium to sweep the aisles during the credits while still retaining my patented judgmental arrogance." --Bill O'Reilly "It's like the movie was preaching directly to us!" --Choir "We loved it, but could have done without having to speak directly to the colored fella working the concession stand." --Members of the local Tea Party group I think it's amazing that they were able to get quotes from all of these people!

So the right wing bots will even pay to be brain-washed They have been lied to so many times that they are now delusional and can't deal with facts at all...pathetic and dangerous

Some important facts to remember how far we have come Check out one of my fave actors Tom Hanks

Sally is displaying her typical kindness toward anyone who may feel or believe differently than she (tolerant she's not). ---- Now here's a different lady with views ... Years, and sometimes decades, pass between my visits to movie theaters. But I drove 30 miles to see the movie ?2016,? based on Dinesh D?Souza?s best-selling book, ?The Roots of Obama?s Rage.? Where I live is so politically correct that such a movie would not even be mentioned, much less shown. Every seat in the theater was filled, even though there had been an earlier showing that day, and more showings were scheduled for the rest of the afternoon and evening. I had to sit on a staircase in the balcony, but it was worth it. for the full course (following our board principles): here's the link -- http://agirlwhoknowsherownmind.wordpress.com/

It's very easy to be tempted to feel intolerant towards political parties (republicans/conservatives) that love rich people over the working class...and ignorance over education.
-
Then if it's ignorance you want to diminish ... Then fear not exposing yourself to either of Dinesh D?Souza?s books or the movie. Mr. D'Souza is from the Third World orginally - India - and he's been exposed to many if not all the views, lifestyles, hardships which the President has been experienced (directly or indirectly). It is from his upbringing in similar roots - that he even ventured to Kenya and spoke first hand with more of Obama's family, friends, and aquantances than (perhaps) any other researcher, journalist has done to date. I'm with you - the banishment of ignorance.

True, Sally has no tolerance for those whose policies have wrecked the global economy. And no tolerance for those who ignored the threats and were responsible for the first foreign attack on our shores (9/11) and the deaths of over 4,000 innocents. And no tolerance for those who led us into a misguided war by lying about the threat of WMD And no tolerrance for those who are racists and try to suppress the rights and votes of others And no tolerance for those who profess individual freedom but only for old white men. no women or others allowed And no tolerance for those who disregard education and science and whose flat earth views can not see the forest for the trees re climate change And no tolerance for those who regard a fetus as more important and deserving of help then an actual living child. So true, Sally doesn't suffer fools lightly ps And no tolerance for those who believe that the poor and middle classes should pony up their money to give more to the rich while the rich take no financial responsibly for improvements to our society by not paying income tax And no tolerance for those who believe that if one is sick or disabled they are on their own...die quick because there's no help for you!

I'm pleased that you responded without all the rolling eyes, and laughing faces ... you're making progress ...

I have places to go & people to meet - I can only deal with the first (perhaps Rich can or will fill in ) After the past four years of leadership, the economy is in worse shape. Unemployment is higher, our national debt has gone up several trillion dollars, and taxes on the retired, fixed incomes peoples are going to go up (not down) ... Just tax the "rich" and our "problems will go away". The trouble is: we've had amatures running the show for the past 4 years & the show (the country) has flopped bigtime. More jobs have gone overseas than ever, more jobs (including union) have disappeared because of misguided presidential policies. The jobs include: oil drilling, pipeline structure for the oil, and thousands of support positions for the same. Thanks a lot Prez!!! A Must See --- http://2016themovie.com/

Too bad you haven't improved..you're still the uninformed and misinformed Here are the facts again : : : maybe after viewing them thousands of times you will understand but I won't bet money on it. Mittbots have a problem with facts (as does mittens. ) check out the vid lists the # of jobs that were lost in the great recession
Over 3.5 million jobs lost in the 6 months before Obama took office. All systems were down we were heading to depression. he put a fast stop to it and now over the past 27 months Obama has created over 4.3 million private sector jobs.. It's been difficult because the repubs have been cutting public sector jobs to make the economy worse and make Obama look bad. but we have been having growth. If taxes go up it will be because the republican (Ryan) budget is used. Obama wants only taxes on the rich to go up. That vid above with Tom Hanks narrating reminds me of a quote from Forrest Gump "Stupid is as stupid does" which in turns reminds me of the republicans and their basebots. Advocating the same policies that got us in this mess to begin with. Indeed Sally is intolerant of "the stupid"True, Sally has no tolerance for those whose policies have wrecked the global economy. And no tolerance for those who ignored the threats and were responsible for the first foreign attack on our shores (9/11) and the deaths of over 4,000 innocents. And no tolerance for those who led us into a misguided war by lying about the threat of WMD And no tolerrance for those who are racists and try to suppress the rights and votes of others And no tolerance for those who profess individual freedom but only for old white men. no women or others allowed And no tolerance for those who disregard education and science and whose flat earth views can not see the forest for the trees re climate change And no tolerance for those who regard a fetus as more important and deserving of help then an actual living child.

That speaks to what I posted above:....
They have been lied to so many times that they are now delusional and can't deal with facts at all...pathetic and dangerous
They can't deal with facts...they don't know facts from opinion. They are brain washed bots who vote against their own interests. They would rather read a nonsense book about Obama then spend the time to really research the issues.

First of all, they're not reading any books: They are regurgitating Rush Limbaugh's bullet-points on those books. And Sally, oh Sally: I have given the other issue a lot of thought, as it befuddles me so, so, sooooo much: Why do hard-core conservatives vote against their own interests? And it finally came to me: A middle- or lower-income American who votes Republican may be blindly religious and buys into the whole GOP=G.O.D. lie. But it's also this: They look at a Mitt Romney, a Paul Ryan, a George W. Bush, the Koch Brothers or any of those other mega-rich, fat-faced creampuff em-effers... ...and they say to themselves: "Yep! I'm one of them. I'm in their league. And they view me as one of their equals. We are the same thing." Meanwhile, they can barely pay their bills, while corporate lobbyists write legislation that expands their already-obscene tax-breaks, putting the burden on a precarious middle class -- and prostitutes who call themselves Congressmen enact them.

That too. But I think it's mainly that they have been lied too so often they have no compass. Chris Mooney did some research that I think is relevant http://www.waronscience.com/author.php They are delusional and brain washed. It's a mental illness that's very difficult to cure because they have to find someone to trust. Really when you look at mittens who has no core and has pandered so much he doesn't know what he believes it's really amazing that the mittbots fall for this stuff....frightening too
