KaskadskyjKozak Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Obama has failed us. It is ALL his falt. the reason we got to where we are is people AND gov't spending beyond our means. now that we've hit a crisis of momentous proportions nobody wants to face this fact and change their lives one iota. instead we are trying to borrow ahead more from our future, let everyone go about business as usual, and change NOTHING I thought some of you progressives were the moral conscience behind this fact, but instead of pointing out how Obama is perpetuating this ruinous path, you are propping him up just because he is "not Bush". that's weak Quote
Kimmo Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 the reason we got to where we are is people AND gov't spending beyond our means. well that's partially true, but very specific mechanics allowed the situation to evolve devolve to crisis stage. really good article in latest issue of vanity fair about AIG worth checking out, if yer interested. now that we've hit a crisis of momentous proportions nobody wants to face this fact and change their lives one iota. yer telling me peeps haven't changed their lives "one iota"? you might have missed the news memo about consumer spending savings rates etc etc etc. instead we are trying to borrow ahead more from our future, let everyone go about business as usual "business as usual"? there has been no "business as usual", and would have been even less so if banks and manufacturing had gone under. I thought some of you progressives were the moral conscience behind this fact, but instead of pointing out how Obama is perpetuating this ruinous path, you are propping him up just because he is "not Bush". see above. if not, then specify your misgivings about the "ruinous path". please no monosyllabic insults.

Kimmo Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 actually, i asked about your misgivings regarding the "ruinous path" you speak of. Quote

You people made your bed with the likes of Limbaugh, Beck, etc. who're still on the endless war, no-tax, deregulation trainwreck and then whine like little bitches when there aren't forthcoming alternatives outside the corporate capitalist model. FOAD dumbass. Quote
billcoe Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 (edited) You people made your bed with the likes of Limbaugh, Beck, etc. G.W. Bush and the TAX AND SPEND REPUBLICANS who're still on the endless war, no-tax, deregulation, increase all Government and especially services that monitor and control citizens and SPEND LIKE DRUNKEN SAILORS ON LEAVE IN BANGKOK trainwreck and then whine like little bitches when there aren't forthcoming alternatives outside the corporate capitalist model. Fixed that for you. I own up to voting for Bush once as I couldn't vote for the son of a traitor, the race was close enough that I voted for Kerry the 2nd time. Who saw the rise of extreme Tax and Spend republicans? Reagan supports perhaps? Edited August 5, 2009 by billcoe Quote
Hugh Conway Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Huh. I'd like to see W make the ladyboy mistake then get the shit beat out of him by a Bangkok pimp. Quote

KaskadskyjKozak Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 can someone please give me the clif notes for this thread? Kimmo s involved. Is it about vaccinations???? bill clinton when to Korea to get vacinnated by Kim Jong Ill for gonorrhea and anal warts. Kimmo got all up in arms about it Everyone blamed Bush Quote
Kimmo Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 you guys are so cute together! nothing like gonorrhea and anal warts for a couple of guys to bond over. Quote
Kimmo Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 you better learn his preferences if you expect to get anywhere close to anal warts and gonorrhea with him: scotch. bottles and bottles of scotch. Quote
rob Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 hmm, I like scotch style beer. That can be our bridge! Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 hmm, I like scotch style beer. That can be our bridge! I'll bring over some 18 year Elijah Craig - much better than the Basil Haydens stuff. Kimmo: even after a few drams, we'll still be more cogent than that gelatinous blob of misfiring synapses located in your cranial cavity (latter word emphasized) Quote
olyclimber Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 lol that sounds just a little suspect. 18 year old Elijah Craig. is that Larry Craigs nephew? Quote

Hugh Conway Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Kim Jong Il is a fan of cognac. Specifically Hennessy Paradis last I heard. Quote
