Christina Romer lets looseon credit downgrade: We’re‘pretty darn f*****’
Daily Caller ^ | 8/5/11 | Steven Nelson

University of California, Berkeley Professor Christina Romer, the Obama administration’s first chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, appeared on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” Friday night. Romer — who resigned in 2010 after inaccurately predicting that the $800 billion stimulus would lower the unemployment rate — said that the S&P credit downgrade was a sign that we are “pretty darn f****.” “The long run budget situation is abysmal,” Romer said. “And it has been abysmal going back at least a decade. So it was never an immediate emergency. And it is something that we

Why do liberals use profanity in public settings so much???

Yes I know Dick Cheney said a bad word, and that snot nose 12 year old girl at the Democrat convention called him out, amid cheers from the good Democrats there. However, Cheney said that directly to someone privately, not broadcast publicly like this.

Except for this Dick Cheney incident, have there been other incidents of prominent conservative politicians/commentators using F bombs or other profanity in public? Joe Biden said that Obamacare was a big blanking deal in public. It just seems so much more common for liberals to go into the gutter when they express themselves.

Hmmm. Well I'll have to rethink my pessimistic position regarding the US economy.

After all, if a clueless, economic ignorant, Keynesian loser professor, thinks we are fu#ked, maybe things aren't so bad after all.

There is a time in the not so distant future when these idiots will be strung up. I think she is the first to realize that fact.

Of course it is - they’re so much more “liberated” than us up-tight, repressed conservatives, dontcha’ know :-)

If they reuse the same rope to string them up one by one, she had better be the last one. If she's the first, the rope will stretch too much to use on the other three Commies.

Never hang with a used rope. Always use a new rope because you cannot be hanged twice - if the rope breaks, you go free.

It just seems so much more common for liberals to go into the gutter when they express themselves.

And in every other way.

Mary Matalin explained the phenomenom 15 years ago: Everybody expects Democrats to be slimy, dishonest, immoral, etc., and so when they demonstrate what they are, absolutely nobody is surprised or outraged. Why would they be? Republicans, on the other hand, are expected to be decent, honest, civilized, and moral and have a sense of shame. Therefore, when a Republican falters people are shocked. It makes headlines. Republicans resign their offices without having to be pressured into doing so.

It's just the way it is, and the way it has been for a long, long time.
(shrug) What can you do?
