Is anybody feeling the crunch yet?

[ImWithStupid]

Four years of you eating humble pie and admitting your boogeyman perceptions were all wrong, and 8 years of watching your life get better and better, and still never being able to admit it... Yeah, I can't wait.

.

Difference is, I'll be glad to say I was wrong, I hope to God, I'm wrong. I really doubt that you or any other Kool-aid drinker, no I predict and damn near guarantee, that you all will still blame someone else, when this guy, along with Pelosi, and Ried, take our country to the extreme left and we end up the worse.

 

Like I said, I'll praise God and be the first to admit, I'm wrong, if in the next four or eight years, if that happens, we don't lose, or see substantial restrictions on our basic rights and freedoms, as they are established today, under the Bill of Rights, or if we see less of a tax burden and lower government spending, or at least one or more of our energy industries, if not other industries, aren't nationalized.

 

Anyone want to take a wager?

They won't admit they were wrong or eat humble pie. Look forward to 4 years of bitching about the little things (mostly monetary, of course).

 

I believe that Obama & Biden will do great things for the USA. In fact, most people in Australia are planning parties for tomorrow night, to celebrate the positive change that's going to come about.

 

Snafu - I actually feel really bad for you, that you are afraid about this. Half(?) of your countrymen and the majority of the rest of the worlds' population are excited and happy, you should be too.

Gas at $1.79. Recessions are good as long as you keep your current income. The major risk under the Democrats will be a higher unemployment rate similar to the unemployment rate in most of Europe. The fact is we have two socialist parties. The Republicans have never shown any inclination to cut entitlements which is the bulk of non-defense spending. Tax cuts without spending cuts simply lead to huge deficits. The other probability is the loss of the right to bear arms as an individual right, This most likely will not effect those living in red states.

The Grand Old Spending Party

How Republicans Became Big Spenders

by Stephen Slivinski

 

President Bush has presided over the largest

overall increase in inflation-adjusted federal

spending since Lyndon B. Johnson. Even after

excluding spending on defense and homeland

security, Bush is still the biggest-spending president

in 30 years. His 2006 budget doesn?t cut

enough spending to change his place in history,

either.

Total government spending grew by 33 percent

during Bush?s first term. The federal budget

as a share of the economy grew from 18.5 percent

of GDP on Clinton?s last day in office to 20.3 percent

by the end of Bush?s first term.

The Republican Congress has enthusiastically

assisted the budget bloat. Inflation-adjusted

spending on the combined budgets of the 101

largest programs they vowed to eliminate in

1995 has grown by 27 percent.

The GOP was once effective at controlling

nondefense spending. The final nondefense

budgets under Clinton were a combined $57 billion

smaller than what he proposed from 1996

to 2001. Under Bush, Congress passed budgets

that spent a total of $91 billion more than the

president requested for domestic programs.

Bush signed every one of those bills during his

first term. Even if Congress passes Bush?s new

budget exactly as proposed, not a single cabinetlevel

agency will be smaller than when Bush

assumed office.

Republicans could reform the budget rules

that stack the deck in favor of more spending.

Unfortunately, senior House Republicans are

fighting the changes. The GOP establishment in

Washington today has become a defender of big

government.

On a side note:

 

How dare you speak to me of The Crunch? You know nothing of The Crunch. You've never even been to The Crunch!

You mean like we have been for the last 8 years and all the companies of thieves us taxpayers just bought?

I have never said that the past administration was a conservative one. I'm pretty sure George Bush isn't running against Obama.

You can only blame both parties on that one.

I believe I recall McCain and Obami touting the bailouts as necessary.. And every other half wit in D.C. damn near..

[wez]

Sure wish someone woulda told me it's my God given right as an American to buy a house I couldn't afford and go in debt up to my eyeballs..

 

 

Guess I could always get addicted to meth, have a couple kids, and get free housing..

 

 

Awwwww sh t.. I aint got a uterus.. oh well..

Well you should'a been paying attention.

I was... watching, saving and waiting for prices to tumble.. Didn't know the government was gonna hand out money to crooks and deadbeats for being irresponsible and criminal assholes to artificially prop up prices as much as possible.. My bad.

[Old Salt]

If credit is so tight, why have I received three credit offers in the past three days?

 

I'm with you, wez. No debt and a reasonable bank balance.

That's all over and done. Didn't you hear? With the Dems in total control in Washington, we're all getting free homes.

 

U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D. Toledo) whipped the crowd up before Mr. Obama took the stage yesterday telling them that America needed a Second Bill of Rights guaranteeing all Americans a job, health care, homes, an education, and a fair playing field for business and farmers.

I wonder if we can add, cars, pets, boats, motorcycles, ATV's and pornography, to this list of items guaranteed by the government?

Where do I put my name on the list? I'm old, retired, and needy (I "need" everything I see).

Well the big Honjas came to me and asked how I can help cut hours here at work. You all know how hard I work but being the honest person I am I piled on more work for myself. Now other employees will be losing their position. It was gonna happen anyway but I feel guilty. Anyway I’m gonna be much busier around here so I won’t be able to come out and play as much. I know this will break all of your hearts but I’ll still be here.
