All this reeks of axelrot turfing his way to success.Use the DBM to create lies that they can be repeated over and over until they become DNC truths.
The stagnation of the labor market in particular is a grave concern, not only because of the enormous suffering and waste of human talent it entails, but also because persistently high levels of unemployment will wreak structural damage on our economy that could last for many years.
Did anybody announce what day and time John Edwards will be addressing the DNC? I believe North Carolina is his home state, so he could provide a real home-town advantage.
Marco Rubio says Barack Obama is a nice person, but a bad President. When Barack Obama was in the Illinois Senate, he introduced one bill, which says that if a baby survives an abortion, the doctor and nurse can stand there and watch the baby die.
I don't understand how a "nice" person can vote for that, let alone write the legislation. Maybe the big-name speakers from the RNC can ignore that, but no matter what your position is on abortion at all, watching an infant die and doing nothing to stop it is unacceptable. And people need to be reminded of that.
Now that the sand castle Obama is being restored, are there any plans to guard the site so Clint Eastwood does not come over there and kick sand in its face?
Bernanke is a bloviated POS that is just dying to give us QE3 so our kids will never ever get out of debt.The guy is a megalomaniac.
Off to see 2016!
APPLAUSE!
People, Stop “projecting”. Better to wait and have positive proof Mittens is a conservative.
We do not need another Bush type Supreme Court appointment.
Are the union thugs showing up? I thought they held an alternate convention and were refusing to go to NC. However, I’m sure the SEIU and teachers unions will still be there.
Axelrod trying to explain building the economy from the middle class out is the incoherent foreshadow of next week. Just for fun because I searched on “economics building middle class”, here’s the answer;
10/17/2007
Who or what is the middle class?
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21272238/ns/us_news-gut_check/t/who-or-what-middle-class/#.UEORwSIvVNs
So earlier this year, Congress asked its research service to come up with a definition of middle class.
The researchers started by looking at income levels. Based on 2005 Census Bureau reports, some 40 percent of the nearly 115 million households in the U.S. earned less than $36,000 a year. That represented just 12 percent of all income. The 40 percent on the next rung up the economic ladder took in between $36,000 and $91,705 or about 37.6 percent of all income. The top 20 percent, who made $91,705 or more, collected half of all income.
But those numbers dont adequately reflect the state of mind of those who consider themselves middle class. Surveys have shown that, while people consider $40,000 a year to be the low end of what it takes to buy a middle-class life, some people who make as much as $200,000 a year still consider themselves middle class, the researchers said.
In the end, they wrote, There is no consensus definition of middle class; neither is there an official government definition. What constitutes the middle class is relative, subjective and not easily defined.
No, RockLoblster, I have not read the Bill.
Anytime you have a G’ment regulation of any kind you take away freedom. At any time once there is a law, the Legislature can add or amend. It is much easier for them to do this than pass the initial legislation.
Please see Obamacare, Tax code, there are others
If only we can steal from the rich and give to the poor everything will be all right. Unbelievable.
(((((
Yeah! That worked very well in Zimbabwe - just to name one quick example.
The country now needs to import food!
Income is not WEALTH!
Net Worth is WEALTH
Income is NET WORK
Fantastic and true!
Proof Mitt Romney is a conservative?
Compared to 0bama?!?!?!
ROFLOL
And isn’t it funny how they are trying to lower expectations by saying Bill Clinton’s speech is the most anticipated? And Biden? I’m not seeing coherent, but Clinton isn’t going to mention the
1. dot.com bubble, the
2. defaulting bad mortgages began escalating after 1995,
3. his first 2 years of budgets, or the
4. recession when he left office,
just to mention 3 things(I know, 4 things, but think of a Joe Biden 3 letter word; j-o-b-s)
I fail to see your point.
Obama is a Socialist. Mittens was Governor of a socialist Massachusetts.
I hope that Mittens reduces the size of the Fedral G’ment but that is only a hope.
Well, a bill is needed to repeal existing law. Getting rid of government mandates does not take away freedom.
I put the links up there so you could read it.
Ah yes, the Purple People Beaters.
Them'll do nicely.
Enact “Welfare to Work” on steroids, where food stamp, Section 8, medical welfare recipients can “give something back”.

I just had my car washed this morning where I counted sixteen short brown-skinned workers vacuuming, washing, drying and polishing cars - energetically.
Q: In a city where the majority of population have ancestral roots in Africa, why do the A-A men consider physical labor beneath them?
A: Because it reminds them of their ‘slave’ history; and because they can live off of their women - who are married to government and its handouts.
