Same worn out tactics , unfortunately they work to continue feeding the lame-brained public....who have yet to clear their minds of the indoctrinations they’ve willfully accepted, who no longer desire truth but to hear what their itchy ears want to hear.

Not likely we(The New Media) set the pace nowadays. They just follow up, lie and reinvent their DBM pap about what “we” do.

I could not agree with you more.

For the pubs to have reaching-across-the-aisle McCain on MTP as ersatz spokesnoid for the party is beyond stupid. Although I’ll allow that they are probably all huddled and were blindslapped by the Friday announcement about the debt ceiling.

McCain, who never met a camera he didn’t adore, agreed to amble on screen and pretend he speaks for anybody for it is just pretense.

Now is the time for the pubs to come out swinging. Because while the American public can be easily fooled from time to time as they carry this country on their backs whilst raising the citizens of the morrow and fighting America’s wars, it’s gonna be damn hard to convince them that anybody else but Obamer owns that downgrade of the debt rating.

I think the midnight oil is burning in the WH and Valerie Jarrett’s serving Jamaican mojitos and assuring everyone it’s under control, that they have John Kerry on MTP handling their side of things, that they need only catch their breaths and plan a campaign to blame it all on the pubs.

She assures the WH jesters that OBamer’s bus tour is still on and that they will get through tomorrow’s likely stock plunge.

Only, I assert, they won’t. This is one huge nail in OBamer’s coffin.

John Kerry is all they could get to go on TV to defend OBamer? A blowhard hasbeen already rejected by America.

That’s pathetic right there.

Rubio ... if he keeps maturing maybe 2020? He’ll still be young and he is one hot (sorry) guy who is articulate, passionate and likeable.

I adore him.

Re: Effin’s smarting butt from his destruction at the hands of Marco. Don’t worry. McCain will kiss it and kiss it and kiss it till it’s all better.

What a disgusting collection of America destroying scum. I cannot bring myself to watch.

Rubio is not perfect

True but I like very much the idea you don't have to guess what he is really saying or thinking. He puts it right out there...and that I can respect even if I maight disagree.

I do agree with the idea that if you tell Americans the truth they can deal with it..... What creates such fractions and uncertainty is when lies are presented as truth...and worse ...when only partial truths are given for political gain.

Aging Dan Rather on Matthews pathetic 1/2 hour show (he must be 175 by now)says the answer for ozero is to look strong strong and bring about more infrastructure spending....yeah right Dan,that'll work.

Good question! I’m sure the SS won’t give any advance warning.

The best way to explain this debt thing is with Dave Ramsey’s example.

A person with a credit card who owes $300,000 in credit card debt on an income of $50,000 per year. He is currently charging an additional $90,000 per year and wants to keep doing so.

These numbers are the same proportion as the debt/income/deficit ratio of our federal government. People can understand these numbers. When you get to billions and trillions they do not register in most people’s comprehension.

Also, we need graphs and charts for visuals with every appearance. Show the escalating debt. Show th increase in joblessness.

Finally, quit allowing people to think that raising taxes on rich people will solve this. Bill Whittle had an excellent video on YouTube (probably still there) which shows that we could confiscate ALL of the wealth (including real estate, art, etc.) of every milllionaire in the country, including buffet, Gates, Hollywood, pro-football players, etc. and it would get us through ONE YEAR. Then who are we going to attack?

Great catch Son!

You can see the Socialistic mindset in both Madcow and Ghoullsssbeeee come out when tax cuts which stimulate the economy and yield far more tax revenue is brought up.

Concepts like that are diametrically opposed to Socialism and the hard left will never embrace them.

Wasn’t it Physspok who used to do those top ten lists, or was it you?

Anybody heard from him lately? I wonder how his health situation is. I miss him.

I just saw where S&P has suddenly changed their tune. THey have now issued a new statement saying that if Congress had simply given Obama a clean bill to raise the debt ceiling with no spending cuts, then Treasury notes wouldn’t have been downgraded. Does anyone have a link to this?

I think the word pacifist does not mean what you think it means.

We are in a catch 22 situation in afghanistan. If we leave the terrorists will move right in. If we don't leave they will keep buying the locals(they are all for sale over there)and more of what happening to seal team 6 will keep on happening through no fault of our own.

Not every problem has a great solution.

John Kerry is all they could get

With Hillary ready to pull the rip-cord, "Live-shot" Kerry is angling to replace her.
