Everyone knows slaves built that. Anyone love me some Bush on Bush banter (being serious).

Was Rand Paul's speech written for last night? Or are we still on you built that tonight?

stupid when gazing into those sparkly Rand Paul eyes hehe

Birds of a feather bro the logic is sound. Rapist v. Socialist take your pick America.

Rand Paul is speaking to me as if English is my second language.

The official policy was to see Osama, count to 1 mississippi, yell "he's coming right for me" and shoot.

The other aspects of Akin's beliefs are also retarded. IMO of course.

Mitch McConnel - The Human Ambien

Hehe...please we're the party of spending and socialism and you can't take what you got coming? Everybody should stop defending their own conservative leaders on the issues of "family values" and "good wholesome conservative values." Instead of raising hell every time people say they're crazy about that stuff sane republicans should say "yup, they're crazy about that but I'm still voting for him."

Link not working cuz reddit server overloaded hehe. PPP quick! To reddit downvote! Damn Obama talking about landing on an asteroid? Channeling his inner Newt hehe Making sure we stay at the forefront of space exploration is a big priority for my administration. The passing of Neil Armstrong this week is a reminder of the inspiration and wonder that our space program has provided in the past; the curiosity probe on mars is a reminder of what remains to be discovered. The key is to make sure that we invest in cutting edge research that can take us to the next level - so even as we continue work with the international space station, we are focused on a potential mission to a asteroid as a prelude to a manned Mars flight.

B/C 3RD DON'T YOU GET IT! IT IS OK TO STICK YOU DICK UP ANOTHER MAN'S BUTT!!!!

I believe his point was that he doesn't like insinuation that people who find themselves struggling are not hard workers and should just "work harder" and they'll become wealthy.

I didn't even realize there was ever a question about it being a kill mission. Did they say they were going to capture if possible? Also proper Muslim burial was obviously just said to not enrage people over there or start a passionate response. We dumped his shot up body in the ocean what did people think we washed his feet before hand? This guy shouldn't put anything in his book about the body there's a reason we said he got a proper burial it wasn't for this guy to write a book and say otherwise.

And I said fair game in the post above as you can see. I brought it up to point out people should stop complaining about the Democrats playing to the fact that Republicans go absolutely insane over strange personal issues like sex/abortion...instead of complaining about the other team hitting you for it when you sit around talking about socialist Obama why not just say "I wish we didn't pander to this crowd this is stupid"

If you are successful there are a number of factors that play into that is much worse than you didn't build your business? Not that I want to actually have this tired conversation again but give me a break.

I know it's easy to make fun of the Dems women stance re: Republicans but ... do you guys realize that it's far easier to make fun of the Republicans woman stance re: Republicans? It's not liberals fault the Republicans are so concerned with other people's sex lives, pregnancy, contraception etc... Now I await a slew of "I'm not paying for Fluke and you kill babies and gay people threaten my marriage!" hehe... Just saying last night's theme was that Obama said if you have a business you didn't build your business. Obama never said that of course, but fair game I suppose. So now you guys can't stand the idea that people don't like the ultra-conservative position the GOP takes on various issues that effect women? Get over it. They basically ask for this to be thrown in their face along w/ immigration stuff and so it is. Politics people.

Hey now we're just jealous. Lock step? Maybe not always but a lot of the time. And it does make us jealous b/c we're not apart of an organized political party. We're democrats.

lol you going to come after me?

LOL apparently there is a lot of speculation about some "mystery" speaker...ranging from Clint Eastwood, to Tim Tebow, to Nancy Reagan....to a literal Zombie Reagan via computer imagery.

LOL...classic

I have to assume that the book itself is fine nobody would be so stupid to write a book they weren't supposed to be writing. The name thing...seems mismanaged and stupid (this guy clearly seems to have either wanted his name out or not cared)..and nothing will come of it. I haven't read anything on this I'm sure ultimately it's just a book about what happened b/c people want to know and the guy wants some money and fame which I won't fault him for. It's a little unbecoming of the general image our service men try to keep but this is the reality of 2012.

Signs point to this guy not being the sharpest tool in the shed. And btw what happened to the whole "do your duty and be a part of the nameless team America...honor and humility etc" idea. We now just have seals names out there and they're writing books for profit after operations? WTF is this book?

SS is fine as a basic structure, and has been fine throughout history, it can be effectively tweaked to cover the cash flow deficit over the next few decades resulting from growing inequality and the demographic shift until the millennials grow old. SS is good, and it's ok.

If you guys want to harp on favorable treatment Obama gets feel free. But the idea the media is bias b/c they basically attacked Palin? The media would be biased for not attacking her and pursuing some retarded fairness bias agenda where they just want to be "fair" instead of reporting. Nobody here will argue the point that Sarah Palin had no business being that election. She didn't merely not know how to give good answer some questions, she clearly didn't understand some questions. Sarah Palin and McCain got what they had coming to them. You can complain that Obama didn't, but don't complain that Palin did.

5-1 ratio in 1960...3 to 1 now...by 2025 2.3 to 1 paying into SS. But at any rate SS itsn't !@#$ed it has a cash flow problem they need to navigate for about 30 years. The millennials are more populous they'll bail us out when they get in the work force and by the then some of the boomers will be dying. The cap hasn't gone up the same rate as wages above the cap have increased so we can bump that from 106K to 190K by 2020, we can raise the retirement age to about 69 b/c lets be honest people just live way to long now (when SS was first enacted people typically lived about to the age of it...not way past it), and reducing the role of automatic benefit increases. There are also other ideas how to get it running more smoothly over the next 30 years...but the bottom line is tweak it as it can be tweaked don't privatize it...imagine if Bush privatized it before '08 jesus. Social security can be managed and it's a great program as is, my take. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/social-security-and-its-role-in-the-nations-debt/2011/07/11/gIQAp1Wl9H_blog.html http://www.brookings.edu/views/papers/orszag/200504security.pdf With medicare the problem is obviously costs and while people knock Obamacare for not controlling them enough as I say over and over and over it really does start things off on a road to medicare reform that will help to control costs. In any event since 1970 medicare spending per person has increased 400%, while private insurance 700%. So while it hasn't been doing a great job, it's certainly been doing better than private insurance. Privatization would either lead to more overall health spending or less coverage and its consequences and it will give up the leverage medicare program has as the largest spender to spur the pay structure reform which is the key component to actually reducing medical costs. You see this is the future, and it's hard to "score" but it's the only answer. Easy to score is the surface level appeal of the Ryan plan compared to current medicare trends, hard to score is actual medicare reform that will and must happen and the effect it will have as private insurance follow it's lead in paying for outcomes and standardizing best practices. And in any event in scoring the Ryan plan it overlooks the fact that teh strain on teh federal budget is big but the strain on the US economy is even bigger and strange as it sound medicare is saving us money...if we throw future seniors out in to the market w/ a voucher we'll just see a rise in overall healthcare spending it will consume more of our GDP, costs won't be controlled as aggressively as they could be and people will be scratching their heads wondering why this wizardry CBO "scoring" wasn't the best thing to do in hindsight....by people I mean Paul Ryan. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/13/opinion/13krugman.html
