State of the Union address set for Jan 28th, 2014

[Zorkorist]

Please, America was fucked the second we started allowing China to peg their currency and cause a labor arbitrage.

As far as the Fed's printing, look at what's happening. We have exported a shit-ton of inflation and caused even more by making the Chinese print money in order to keep the peg operational. This means that QE actually caused huge inflation in China, making their wages skyrocket. Now companies like Foxconn are considering shipping jobs here as the labor arbitrage, inclusive of transportation and manufacturing hassles, if shifting.

Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit - take a breath of fresh air - bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.

17 trillion dollars in debt, is not anything, any society or government, would hope to emulate.

I'll give this Republican response woman credit she is keeping it simple, oh crap here comes the family talk.....

Edit: good thing she has a Government health plan otherwise they'd be SOL before ACA. Oh you took a new job and look they won't insure your son because he has the extra chromosome.

Edit #2: she seemed to skip over what her solution is to health care other than ACA is bad and what we had didn't work. Thanks real helpful.

Basically, it wasn't a GOP response at all, it was a carefully prepackaged politically and religiously charged tugging of heart strings in order to further pilfer and then strangle the taxpayers with their own empty purse strings.

What is Government?

I am not crying but it seems you're upset that your piece of shit obama is getting criticized. Go to another Tea Party rally and get tea bagged.

the left seems much more worked up

 

[Victorian Gray]

Around $85 billion/month but don't expect any of the obama drones to call him out. This is stealing from the poor and middle class to give to the rich but why don't they call him out?

But I thought he was a socialist? Why would a socialist give money to big business? Isn't he supposed to nationalizing big business?

Does this mean that you're actually one of those Occupy Hippies? What you said sure makes you sound like one.

Huh? Who'd a thunk it....

 

[spidey07]

I had to turn that thing off.

Fuck Obama.

 

[sportage]

WHO IS this loony woman that gives the republican response???
I haven't felt so creeped out since the day both the jehovah witnesses AND the
Mormons showed up at my door to convert me.

And this just REALLY pissed me off time and time again, where these self righteous republicans get on TV and talk how "wonderful" and "lovely" that THEIR own family is...BUT... could not give a crap about YOUR family.
With voting against and taking mean spirited opposition against SS couples families, single parent families, and every other type of American family that DOES NOT fit into their twisted perverted definition of an American "family".
Hey lady.... your family is not any better nor any more "lovely", "wonderful", beloved, than any other American family no matter what their makeup may be.
Pull that high horse attitude out of your ass...Lady.

Then she has the moronic nerve to quote constitutional quotes and talk of them as if they were biblical quotes.
Talk about rewriting the bible....
Hey lady.... The US constitution states quite clearly SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.
Not bS bS bS bS bS and more bS....
As Jerry Lewis would say "HEY LADY!"

Agree. Notice how he had to use personal insults since he has nothing else and is intolerant of those who dare disagree with him.

I'd love to go again, however tea rallies have had a massive drop over the years. I've been to ten different events and you know why I enjoyed going to them.

Care to know why? I'll tell you. Back in those days I'd photoshop anti-Obama graphics for placement on bumper stickers and t-shirts, then I'd have 100 bumper stickers, plus t-shirts printed with my slogans. I would then attend these rallies selling my wares for $15 for the sticker and $25 for the shirt.

The Rubes ate it up; I easily turned over $1500 at most events. And all that time, as I sold and smiled at them , I was laughing like a mad man inside...:biggrin:

Did I say it was good to be in that much debt?

Please point out where I said that.

 

[Zorkorist]

LOL, Obama is worried about high quality "pre-k"

[compuwiz1]

It sounded like another one of those high school campaigns where the candidate is promising, "if you vote for me, I'll put kool-aid in the drinking fountains!".

If was full of rhetoric and shit we've all heard before.

The GOP is mostly rich and happy conservative bigots and hypocrites who deftly use religion mixed with politics to maintain their hold on power and wealth over the rest of the country and the world.

So her emotionally impassioned canned "GOP Response" certainly comes as no surprise to me what so ever.

Sorry if I attack Legend Killer, but even folks on the side today are enemies of mine.

I think I have trusted you once before, and then you disappointed me.

Agree. The guy has no real ideas on how to fix the economy but just prefers the usual talking points.

Pretty much.

I can see his speech writers sitting around and checking off all the important things to comment about, and making sure they didn't forget anything. You can practically take the last state of the union speech and update it with a few more current events and essentially just rehash the same old political speech over and over again, forever. Which is why they all sound so similar.

"If you cook our servicemen meals, or wash their dishes, you shouldn't have to live in poverty!"

Says the President of the United States. while spending eaxh of us into more and more debt.

While paying for his cronies, to Golf.

While paying for the NSA to spy on us.

etc.

[Capt Caveman]

Can't wait to hear how this American hero reacts when he finds out he owes $60,000 on the national debt.

As does his wife, his sons, and daughters.

Oh boy, I can't wait.
