Ok. Lol. The economy was in an unprecedented free fall. There was no recovery when those regulations were put into place. You can’t say that recovery was hurt when at the time there was no recovery there was economic free fall. Besides I’m not siding with Obama’s economic policies.

Earlier you said Obama did nothing now you’re saying he did too much. I’m not going to debate you on his policies bc ultimately there is no right answer. McCain could have been elected and made things worse than Obama or maybe better. I don’t know; however, you’re contention that Obama did nothing is incorrect.

Please though in this respect be genuine and tell me what the republican plan was to thwart the free fall? Bush spent like the wind, government grew under him more than anytime in the last 50 years. Be thankful to gd that you have an economy to even conduct business in bc the USA was on the brink of a total financial collapse. Regulations, QE, spending all of it helped stabilize things so there would be an economy to recover. Again I’m not backing Obama’s policies but the republicans were doing the same shit, spending, TARP certainly with a rep President he wouldn’t stop QE. Regulations are no friend to the free market but sometimes they are needed to protect the free market. It all balanced out in the long run and now there is a president who has taken the shackles off.

Your view of things deals with one sector of the economy and is very narrowly focused. The street is not the US economy.
His regulations killed community banks—the banks that serve the local farmers, businesses etc.

They don't have documents you dipshit because the entire island was destroyed. A much better plan is to leave 100k people on an island with no water or electricity so thousands can die like Puerto Rico. Republicans have become the most heartless POS. And the most pathetic part is they like to claim Christianity. I'm sure God would leave them all there to die because he was worried about documents.

Yeah, Ole Puerto Rico couldn't buy much to help themselves with the billions they were given. Don't blame the corrupt leadership in Puerto Rico, blame the U.S. tax payers for not giving enough.[eyeroll]
 
McCready won Richmond 50-48 in 2018. Bishop won it 52-47 tonight.

In Robeson County McCready's vote share sunk by 6 percentage points compared to 2018.
Turnout was 40% lower so can't over analyze counties that have 10000 votes. People don't like special elections, only the hardcore partisans vote in these.

Do you really want to get into a battle of pictures of Trump supporters versus insane liberals?

A man was stalled in traffic in the DC area. After waiting for some time, a man came up and knocked on the window. He asked the guy, "Do you know what's going on out there?" The guy responded that terrorists had taken over the Capitol and are threatening to pour gasoline on the Congress and set them on fire. We're taking donations." The driver asked, "What is the going rate?" The guy said, "Oh, about a gallon."

Classic bullshit; if you truly called out the losers and liars, you would be all over Austin, Sawnee and Warrior (false). 80% of what they put out on a daily basis is crap. Weren't you the guy who a few days ago that had the meme of the people doing stupid things claiming they were all liberals? Rich coming from you MPR
You started the other post he responded to by calling all republicans here dumb asses and belittling us and then expect them to agree with your final statement because it was all inclusive? Who's the dummy now!

And in a year when they are asked to go back you and all other liberals would be screaming about that. There is no one of the 7.8b people on earth that you don't think should be able to come here and stay as long as they want. Just be honest.

You are a simple hypocrite. In the earlier post you state that there are idiots, losers and liars on both sides then call out three in the post above that you think are but, leave out the many you happen to agree with such as, Platnidumb, Jameslie, Levi'sbooty, pEDo, 420ho etc...that list is way too long to post. Oh, and by the way, you too are included in that list. Believe me, you can and are just as bad as those others. The post above and the one before it are clear examples if you would just apply your own standards to them. You're welcome.

And that has to do with what? It's still all proportional, that's how math works. If trump loses even half a percent of support he loses WI, PA, MI. Or if Dem turnout is even the tiniest amount higher than 2016. He won the presidency by 70,000 votes and has not expanded his base at all. He has no margin of error to work with. That is why he is freaking out about the wall right now. He understands the situation even if he won't admit it on Twitter.
False, his base is expanding you just will not see it. It is not big yet but, I believe it will be seen by November next year not unlike the manner in which you left nuts saw in 2016. You are listening to the same lies being told again that were told back then but hey, I like it. Your (the entire left) ignorance will ensure Trumps re-election. I am beginning to like you guys.
 
18 years ago today, I was sitting in sophomore year religion class when another teacher walked in and said a plane hit one of the twin towers in New York. Thought it was an accident. Had no idea how the world was going to change. Still remember it like yesterday.

18 years, multiple wars, trillions of dollars, multiple federal agencies (or new arms), and the evisceration of American privacy later, and the Democrats champion a woman who describes that unforgettable day as “some people did something” while advocating for the importation of any and everyone who wants to come to America, regardless of their background or history.
 

Hmmmm...you guys are too easy. Obama's words were proof of rulership intent.

I’ve seen Obama starting to get bashed a little recently by the left. The reason? He wasn’t far left enough.

We’ve reached a point to where Obama looks like a moderate democrat compared to any real option the democrats will end up with for this election.
 
One day terrorists are flying into buildings killing Americans. A short time later you can't even say a presidents actual middle name. Another short time later news won't even say radical islam.

Things can sure change in a hurry

This is good news. There is no reason to discount their shipping. We should charge them extra.

I seriously can't believe the lopsided relationship with China. How on Earth did it get this bad?
 
As many times as I have shaken my head over it, I still cannot believe this country elected a guy with a Muslim name and ties to it as the POTUS 7 short years later. "Never Forget" was the mantra after 9-11, but I can assure you a large portion of this country forgot rather quickly.

I’ve got a German last name but I have to go back 5 generations to find an ancestor who lived in Europe.

Doesn’t make me a nazi.

Total BS born from a father of hate and a mother of greed in a house of ignorance.
 
Please elaborate on Truman, never really made the connection with him and globalization.
“Experience has shown how deeply the seeds of war are planted by economic rivalry and social injustice.” Harry Truman ----Hardly a straight line from this to globalization ruled by global corporations with no concerns past their bottom lines and the monopoly of power of the world's resources to assure those bottom lines over and above even human life.

I'm gonna go slightly OT for a sec:

I highly recommend the Ancestry.com service. It's a blast- I found out that many of my ancestors were Irish/English who came thru Appalachia. I also have quite a few Germans who emigrated to Pennsylvania in the tree.

I have traced the German branches all the way back to the 1400's (those Germans kept some really good records lol).

Warning: it is highly addictive. You will sit down at the computer... and 4-6 hours will go by. I'd wait until the weather turns cold and you don't have anything else to do cause you'll burn a whole weekend easily.

It's a really fun hobby 19978 - you have to put some work in yourself but you get rewarded with lots of cool information. Shameless plug approved.

Remember when terrorists tore down a building 2 blocks from ground zero and built a 3 story Islamic musuem?

On May 19, 2016, Sharif El-Gamal secured Sharia-compliant financing for a 43-story building for "high-end" condos with room for a three-story Islamic cultural museum. A $174 million loan was secured from a consortium let by Malayan Banking Bhd. and includes banks from Kuwait, Italy, and an additional $45 million in financing from Saudi Arabia.[116][117]


I say terrorists, because by law, "sharia-compliant financing" means you pay fees to fund jihad. For NYC to allow something like this to happen is...well, it's what I would expect. We have forgotten 9/11, and we have spent years apologizing to and trying to appease terrorists. We didn't learn a thing.

Agreed. If anything, it has gotten worse - which is unbelievable.
