Well, that would be true, if you have no clue what the word socialism means.
By all means, tell us what it means.

The panthers are Obama's biggest cheerleaders. Might wanna rethink your post.
Clinton did not inherit a bad economy? Really? We were still in the midst of a housing bubble (minor by today's standards), we still had an overhang of record debt from the Reagan dynasty....and correct me if I'm wrong...but wasn't the catch phrase: "It's the economy, stupid" ?I didn't get that one... gotcha politics of minor misstatements gets no one anywhere... I was just pointing out to you the fact that you do it, too... So going forward, no one gets hung up on the minutiae
But, the POINT does not stand... There was a total different economy back then... Clinton was inheriting the debt, but not a bad economy... He was being charged with balancing the budget, not fixing the economy... To raise taxes now, in a bad economy would be disastrous... Clinton was also aided by two prior balance the budget acts in 90 and 91 which covered limiting spending... So on that side everything was trending towards balance... Also, when Clinton raised taxes in 93... the economy wasn't in boom mode, that came later... so by that point people had adjusted to the taxes, and also had higher salaries to afford to pay the taxes... No one is saying if Obama were to raise taxes in 1993 that we'd be destined for recession... Everyone is talking about right now...
You mean like all that money the government took from the pockets of the taxpayers and redistributed to the banksters? Yup, I agree with you. :mrgreen:
You crack me up. Slippery slope is a logical fallacy.
Yea Obama "demonizes" the rich so much that they throw money left and right at him, he bails them out, and gives them tax breaks! Sounds like one big socialist to me! :lamo

Politics....soda....cars...WTF?Again... Europe and America are different... For one, Europe has high tax rates on both corporate and personal income, then add the vat... so when a government is taking that much money from the people, and then turns and cuts services, the people revolt... that's what's happening in Europe... Not only is it so far different from America... but it's also just plain bogus to compare Europe and America in general...
(besides, you quoted Ireland as being in trouble, but Ireland has $200B in debt, which is only 60% of GDP... the US has $16T in debt, which is over 100% of our GDP... If Im betting on which of those economies recover, it'd be the Irish economy, on the back of their low corporate tax rate...)
Again... you still miss the point...
Europe + America = Different places...
Therefore
What works / doesn’t work in Europe ≠ What works / doesn’t work in America...
Look, for example…
So, now that we have that established… next time you try to tell me about what’s going on in European politics, and how it’s relevant to what is going on in the USA, make sure to check your European Man Purse at the door…
depends on the issue. the founder of the modern Gun ban movement-Pete Shields-was very much a proponent of the incremental slide towards banning weapons.
retread post-it was lame the first time used and has not improved with age
It was merely to prove that your silly generalization is without meritToo bad that has nothing to do with this case.
Its a stupid opinion countered by my opinion that it is stupidAnd yet you cannot counter it.

Obama is working as hard as he can to end it. He's not quite done yet.
I guess I'll repeat from another thread. Why can't people simply just disagree with his policies rather than make such ludicrous statements?
I think there's validity to both points. Each side has its own set of wackos.It's interesting that some on the right spend so much time claiming that the right isn't racist, yet KKKers tend to be the rights biggest cheerleaders.
See how ****ing stupid that kind of thing sounds?
