The Newton Democrat also reiterated his call for a substantial reduction in the military budget, saying the US armed forces had become "overextended."

Aren't the RATS the ones who complained that the troops didn't have all the gear they needed?

“We made a mistake as a society in promoting homeownership as a universal achievable goal,” he said”

Three trillion dollar drop in retiree accounts. Ya think?

Frank redefines what irresponsibility means.

Frank is a lisping c*cks*cker.

The ‘Rats are always looking for a quick patch in order to get more votes. Never mind if the long term consequences are disastrous. Giving people loans for houses they could not afford was the recipe for disaster. And since loans were so easy to get, basically requiring only a pulse, I wonder how many people would get a loan, move in, default on the loan and when they are evicted several months later, just go and get another loan.

“Society” is at fault whenever Democrats do something egregious.

A few years ago I heard an NPR personality (it may have been Diane Reem) during a discussion of the Japanese internment camps during WWII just oh-so-casually slip in the observation that it was “we, as a society” who did it.

When the Republicans get something wrong, it’s Republican’s fault. Or the rich. Or individualism. Or selfishness.

When the Democrats get something wrong, it’s “the system,” or “society’s” fault.

The media, of course, lap this up and spit it back out.

A brief review:

For at least six years the Democrats/media have been trying to talk us into a recession.

For at least six years the Democrats/media have been blasting the Bush Administration/Republicans as the “worst administration ever’ and responsible for all the ills we experienced, the Republican Culture of Corruption.

Bottom line, the Left blast the present administration, depending on th adage of “A lie repeated often enough becomes perceived as truth, and the bigger the lie the better its chances of success.

Unfortunately, for whatever reason, Bush refused to defend himself or his piolicies, allowing the Republicans to sinl lower and lower in public opinion and helping the Left.

Go figure!

“We made a mistake as a society in promoting homeownership as a universal achievable goal,” he said.

It is a goal, but that doesn’t mean you give a 400k mortgage for a 350k home to a person making 35k with no money down and an ARM loan.

There goes property rights folks. I cannot, cannot believe I am watching socialism slowly creep in and take over.

"tens of millions" of people are not suited to own homes.

If stated by a Pubbie, this would be seen as a racist statement, and they'd be forced to step down within 48 hours.

“We let the free market set housing policy for a while in this country, and you can see what we get when we do that,” Callahan said.

Here's the money shot. Capitalism doesn't work, blah, blah, blah.

The reality is government messed up the free market so now government will have to take over the whole thing.

Da, Comrade.

Then, as the coup de tete, the Democrats trigger this economic crisis, which they set up, and they and the media are blaming the Republicans for the crisis the Democrats engineered.

The Democrats/media have no ideas that are acceptable to the right/center American populace so they must depict the other side, the Republicans as the Devil in order to make themselves acceptable. That is wht they have done. They then populate the frontpages and evening news with negative stories, conduct polls to agree with the stories, and then say "The American People think ..." to validate that slant even if it is not true. This strategy continues until the election, including the "exit polls" during the election, and if they still lose, wbhich is often the case, they scream "Fraud, stolen election, etc." Too many people fall for it. Go figure!

What an astounding piece of work this revolting little rump ranger is. Every time he opens his mouth some new nugget of rancid lib speak spews forth. I feel like I need a shower every time I hear him. I'd say he's a criminal waste of oxygen except that would be insulting to criminal wastes of oxygen everywhere. How even brain dead Rats can continue to vote for this ass clown is one of the great mysteries of the Universe. The only phrase that comes to mind is “I wish I knew how to quit you!” AUGH! Now I definitely need a shower.

Let's cut Barney's salary by 50%. If he finds himself financially "overextended", cut it by another 50%. Continue the process until his approach solves his problem. What a dumbass.
