You regurgitate race/ethnic baiting to discredit Obama. You have no ethics.

strawman. Nobody claimed market theories were needed for economic interaction to occur.

I love people like you who continually cherry pick data (taking an egregious case of a public worker earnings and extrapolating it to all workers), then when faced with a formal analysis debunking the myth you propagated, suddenly pretend the methodology for the analysis isn’t robust. Can’t you abide by the methodologies you want others to observe or is this just another rhetorical exercise devoid of intellectual honesty? bzzzt. there is absolutely no good reason to assume there isn’t an even distribution of degrees from Harvard and Podunk U among both set of degreed workers (public and private). The public sector has more than twice the number of workers with advanced degrees. Don't fudge that very important fact. BS arm waving that is vague enough to mean whatever one wants. What is your claim exactly on average it does (wages start to decline after 60), especially for better educated workers and those in the public sector where age is a reasonable proxy for time spent in a career. People who are discarded in later age and forced to become Wal-Mart greeters appear to be your reference, which gives us an indication of your twisted model.

what a regressive knuckledragger! Nope. You are the original knuckledragger, who whoops it up with monosyllabic insults. PP is coherent enough to know when he looks like a goon. You don't.

"Does the growing income gap threaten the middle class?" Thanks to the "librul" media, regressives feel justified in asking whether their shit stinks ...

how do they put the ropes up there?

hey, if you can think of any ways his politics differ from that of a corporate shill, let me know. In the meantime, he was caught red handed pushing far right racist bating in order to discredit Obama. Don't you guys have any shame?

PP isn't in the closet.

really cool pics!

filtered for consumption by the idiocracy and regurgitated by scumbag propagandists who don't stop claiming that Obama is a Muslim lover or some such. Good job, Piss Pot.

I have a beautiful bridge in Brooklyn you may be interested in buying. Wanna see a picture of it?

there is no good reason to believe the health care industry over believing Obama that anything in the health care bill would cause insurance rates to go up 30%. In fact, quite the opposite is true since health insurers haven't waited for Obama to give us the most expensive health care on the planet for very modest quality care.

Say it an't so! It's most likely a distortion or an outright lie by the right wing. Note that the assertion you quoted isn't in any of the articles cited by PP. Classic scumbag move, but what would you expect from someone citing FOX "news"

The right wing nutjobs are actually surprised to sound like extremists compared to anyone who opposed Bush's policies. Go figure.

Of course, you should congratulate yourself on making a mission statement sponsored by the RCP look good. Dimwit.

I don't know the park budget and I bet you don't either. Most of the climbing related expense is likely due to Denali anyway. What's gibberish is denying that pay-to-play results from cutting government subsidies.

Certainly not. RCP types are goons like you, Attila.

???? giving info/help/infrastructure to climbers of all experience and nations on a magnet mountain like Denali is unnecessary nowadays? Do you intend also to leave the bodies on the mountain or do you expect the recovery crew to go for the booty? what gibberish.

It does sound reasonable, but Fairweather and JayB stood for these horrible Bush policies during all these years.

we have been on that topic for a while but you have unsurprisingly done your best to avoid it. You are being disingenuous or you are not quite as smart as Bill makes you out to be, because nobody could seriously pretend that faking grassroot movement through astro-turf organizing or financing fake expert "studies", and financing much more ($100's of millions) of the same type of shady practices, are welcome in a democratic society. Soros means very little to the left. He is not like the legions of wealthy libertarians/robber barons have been to the Laissez Faire zealots throughout time and most especially (as far as we are concerned) over the 40 years.

what's really rich is that "pay to play" (user fees) has become generalized in direct response to tax cuts advocated and won by the so-called "small government" (cough, cough) crowd that has been in charge for the last 30+ years. Do try to be consistent.

more manicheism from JayB, like if there were no alternatives to state capitalism or Laissez Faire. Like all good libertarians he has his head firmly stuck up Hayek's ass. as if many on the left supported Castroism. At any rate, it certainly isn't the first casualty of this global economic crisis, which compounded other problems in the case of Cuba. Not only, I have never been a supporter of Castro but rest assured that if there is an evil one among the 2 of us, it is certainly the one whose politics aren't differentiable from that of the Koch brothers.

Of course, but the right wing isn't about to act as if they understood. They want to be racist, in order to create a scapegoat for the crises their policies created.
