    Trimming Military Foreign Aid

    There should be reduced foreign aid... but we also have a responsibility to repair much of the damage we have caused in certain areas of the world... and there are other areas of the world that have been hit hard by disasters they couldn't possibly have predicted or recover from... I could see...

    Why do conservatives hate unions so much?

    Your trouble is right there... where I underlined... Nothing is wrong with Americans earning a fair wage... Comparatively, we don't earn a fair wage... we earn well more than most people on earth... That's why our companies are failing now in the globalized economy... where people in other...

    Boehner done with negotiating with Obama

    And neither could you point out the insult or the half-truth... only admitting to your own half-truth then... with the profile saying youre from calais, france... My life is nice and it will continue as such... the accepting the spouting of unchallenged ignorance on this site in regards to...

    Boehner done with negotiating with Obama

    Well... Since you are French... it may explain some of the ignorance... or buying into the anti-US military hype... First off... The Federal Government is the ONLY US governing body which handles spending for the US Military... Whereas EACH individual state has a budget that also covers social...

    Boehner done with negotiating with Obama

    I think you somehow miss the fact that "minor cuts" to Social Security isn't what they're making... They're making minor changes to the structure of the program, which then makes it sustainable through the Baby Boomer crisis... which is the real problem... Cutting a few dollars here or there at...

    Obama Voters Shocked, Angry At Tax Increases

    I know this is probably part of a side off-topic discussion that I shouldn't delve into... but this comment that Reagan converts ought to jump back to being Democrats is rather ridiculous... First off Reagan never jumped back... nor have most of said "converts" from that era... they've become...

    Boehner done with negotiating with Obama

    I know where you're coming from... but to his point... that military type of dismissal also comes within a chain of command... as in I'm dismissing you... and you are subserviant to me... Do you see where it has the negative connotation to it? However, I will definitely say there are A LOT of...

    Boehner done with negotiating with Obama

    Boehner is not and has never been the problem... I have no problem with what Boehner said/did... He went into good faith negotiations with the president, but the president has proven time and time again he is not a good faith negotiator... And when the president constantly belittles and mocks...

    Obama Voters Shocked, Angry At Tax Increases

    This is exactly what specks was talkin about... You've gone left-right in reverse... because people are pointing out this idiocy of MANY Obama voters being upset about taxes going up, that thought they were voting for him to tax the rich only... Now, your reaction is that its only a small...

    Did the President just hold a campaign rally on Dec 31st?

    LMFAO... First off... You need to stop reading Highlights Magazine for your history... Nixon was president from 68-73... You're missing 8 years prior to Reagan taking office where the Russians increased their standing in the world... and the sale of weapons all over Africa and the Middle East...

    Did the President just hold a campaign rally on Dec 31st?

    Your ignorance precedes you on this issue... First off, when you say things like "for years" the Soviets were going to collapse... it doesn't fly what was actually occuring in real life... In the 1970s the Soviets made huge gains in closing the weapons gap, and still testing weapons despite...

    Did the President just hold a campaign rally on Dec 31st?

    LMFAO... Let's ignore then the fact that Obama's massive debt spike is by far the largest of them in history... :roll: Or thar Eisenhower and Nixon dropped the debt down as well... Funny how you must be selective in your choices in order to make a case... This graph also didn't have the...

    Did the President just hold a campaign rally on Dec 31st?

    Right... Presidents have regular meetings with people (which more often then not aren't televised), scheduled events with the public, travel around gladhanding, etc. blah blah blah... This was none of those... It was not some scheduled event... it was not a weekly radio/tv address... It was...

    Did the President just hold a campaign rally on Dec 31st?

    They really havent... Presidents typically only give political speeches when they're announcing actual accomplishments... or actions they're going to take... This speech was for the president to say that Congress is working together to find a solution, but they haven't reached it yet... wow...
