With the incredibly stupid artificial debt ceiling crisis that lowered Americans credit rating to the failure to approve judges which has caused a crisis in the Federal Courts to the current Fiscal Cliff, is it fair to say the Republicans are intentionally sabotaging the US economy?

Well what would you expect from idiot shills like me? I dont care about the real issues.

FTFY, again.

I would expect shills to at least have a working knowledge of the English language. I guess you get paid less if you don't though.

I don't think that they're doing it intentionally. They're definitely hurting it. But I think that these morons somehow believe that their economic policies would help their country, despite the fact that most GOP politicians come from poor areas.

And with Nehalem, you can see why they outsource these days. His English is actually better and he plays the role of misogyracist even better than these guys do. Plus he probably works for $.80 an hour.

I have been making a good case for the Republicans wanting to take out the Black guy in the White House for years on this forum. :)

You're basing this entire premise on the Democrat group-think that the government runs the economy. That government should choose winners and losers by doling out all the cash in the economy to make up for economic downturns, deficits be damned.

From where we stand your "solutions" ARE the problem. The cost of what you're doing now, what you continue to propose to do ad infinitum is a greater threat to our people and our economy.

We fight stimulus.

New poll: Is the OP posting baiting loaded questions which predictably coincide with his posting history?

Actually, recommendations to spend our way our of recession come from economists. Democrats just tend to listen to experts in fields relating to the topic being considered while Republicans don't.

No, moron, the government doesn't have to run the economy for it to be able to hurt the economy, which is all the OP asked.

You're a retard.

Q: Did DominionSeraph write, "You're a retard"?

Lots of inner cities are wealthy. For example, look at Nancy Pelosi. She covers SF, one of the wealthiest places in the entire country.

Boehner? Some podunk place in Ohio.

Even if we go by senators and governors and such, Republicans usually represent the poor places. And yet somehow we're supposed to think that their policies from poor places are actually good? Fuck that. Republican strongholds are poor because Republican policy makes you poor.
