Some of the strongest anti-Obama/nomics commentary I've ever read is contained there. Some of the arguments in favor of cutting the federal gov't budget to the bare minimum, and for downsizing the beast are just brilliant.
Interspersed throughout are a few exceptionally lame liberal posts, and most have been slammed without mercy by the adults posting to the thread.
Folks, people out there are PISSED OFF, so it's not just us Freepers.
There are several hundred posts on that one thread, and 90% of them are excellent reading. I probably read at least 600 - they are that good.
Have a look.
There’s some serious butt kicking going on there. Thanks for the link!
Is Amerika finally waking up?
Is the Kool Aid wearing off?
Welcome to the nightmare folks!!!
(I hated this Bass Turd long before it was cool.)
Obama, the man who “WILL NOT REST” until all our problems are solved...
You are sooo right. It is a fantastic read!!
Thanks for posting this, Windflier.
I found this quote from Reagan embedded in the comments.
“The fact is, we’ll never build a lasting economic recovery by going deeper into debt at a faster rate than we ever have before. ... Inflation is the cause of recession and unemployment. And we’re not going to have real prosperity or recovery until we stop fighting the symptoms and start fighting the disease. There’s only one cause for inflation — government spending more than government takes in. The cure is a balanced budget. Ah, but they tell us, 80 percent of the budget is uncontrollable. It’s fixed by laws passed by Congress. Well, laws passed by Congress can be repealed by Congress. And, if Congress is unwilling to do this, then isn’t it time we elect a Congress that will?”
—Ronald Reagan
"Barry Soetero, or whatever his real name is, treats the Presidency as though he has hit the lottery, taking multiple vacations, eating lobster and caviar while the rest of our country suffers, and dispensing billions of dollars from his executive slush fund to all of his cronies. He and his family long ago gave up any attempt to pretend that they have any respect for the office, exiting Air Force One dressed as any 'hood rats' would normally dress, and let's not forget Obama's famous "crotch salute". He has foregone many, if not most, of the traditional functions that the President historically attends, cancelling the Boy Scout Jamboree at the last second because he got a chnace to be on TV on "The View", and continue campaigning, which he has never stopped."
thanks for heads up. i frequently post to show the comments as indicative of general mood. i just started out & you’re right. interesting. Americans aren’t stupid.
I liked this idea from the comments:
“Radio (East) Berlin in 1990 had the ***** to broadcast an apology for lying to the world for the previous four decades before going off the air. Could USNEWS at least show the same decency before being sold for a dollar itself? “
Here’s one who defines Bo ....from that thread....
“He’s pompous, pampered, and pretentious -— a pseudo-intellectual fop. He’s a glorified, smooth-lyin’ dandy, and slicker than Sick Willie Clinton. He’s a dictator-on-the-make, a bloodsxcking, predatory humanitarian thug, and a low-down skunk.
He’s a fraud and a swindler. He lies when he inhales and he lies when he exhales; his oxygen is the falsification of reality. He lies, placidly and laconically, as if deception were a soporific drug.
He’s a friend of the poor and the downtrodden -— indeed, you can hear the milk of human kindness sloshing around inside of him when he walks.
He declares himself the post-racial leader -— “Let me be clear!” he intones -— and he hides behind his race, daring his critics to put their reputation for fairness at risk.
He pauses to ponder the portent of his propaganda -— and it is fakery; he smiles and his mendacity comes shining through. Shake hands with Barak Hushpuppy OhBummer -— “The Mistake of ‘08” -— the illegal alien squatter in the White House -— and America’s first and last Arab president. Now count your fingers.”
Thanks so much for posting this. These comments are very good and it does give me hope to read them.
I have been doing some phone calling for the local tea party candidate and sometimes it seems to me that the people I call are brain dead.
Maybe that is just a local aberration!
Worth the look...
