Trump foreign policy
IDBillzFan replied to Benjamin Franklin's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
He ain't no Hillary Clinton, either. Thank God. -
Alexandria, The New Direction Of The Democrats
IDBillzFan replied to 3rdnlng's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think 'independent' is what liberals call themselves when they aren't quite ready to openly admit they love the DNC's new position of socialism for all. -
Clinton Political Dynasty

How in the holy hell does she have the audacity to make a comment like this after she intentionally left an American ambassador to die in Benghazi? Ladies and gentlemen, the leader of the Democratic Party. If she's not stumbling up and down a flight a stairs, she's tripping over her own freaking tongue. Go away, you disgusting pig. -

The poor in 1960 were trying. They'd do whatever they had to do. I know, because I watched my whole family do it. Parents. Aunts. Uncles. Grandparents. Brothers. Sisters. They were hard workers. They were surrounded by hard workers. I spent years up and down the east coast, outside NC textile mills, for example. When textiles were outsourced, companies like Glaxo moved in because those people didn't care what they were doing...they were proud to do it. Turning sweatshirts inside out or moving plastic tubes. Happy to do it and Glaxo was happy to hire them because hard workers are always valued. The industry I'm in is desperate for hard workers. Cable pullers. Easy work. Room to learn and grow and get raises and benefits. Yet they're nowhere to be found. The industry and it's association turns every rock at every college...everywhere. They can find workers. They just can find hard workers. They don't want to earn anything. They want to be given everything. "I have to do what to earn what?" I suspect the truth is somewhere between what you see and what I see, but we can both agree that a guaranteed wage for people who don't pay federal income taxes is a very, very, very bad plan. -

I do not place the ills of the economy onto the poor. I place it on the people who enable the poor to stay poor. And that would be the people who successfully pile the poor up on streets with no hope because...why bother? Detroit. Baltimore. San Francisco. LA. Portland. Seattle. What do all these cities have in common? -

In 2015, Forbes reported that 45.3% of Americans did not pay federal income tax. You can push your little "intellectual dishonesty" narrative all you want, but my point remains the same: according to the one poll, 48% of the US believes you should be given a guaranteed living wage for nothing, and in another poll, more than 45% of the US doesn't pay federal income taxes. I pay more than enough, and in fact I'm making steps to move to where I no longer have to be financially gang-raped by a Dem Supermajority that can't even figure out how to get a train on the tracks without sticking money in their own pockets and repeatedly showing up months later saying "Oh, no, we need more money!!!" We really appreciate your weepy little "we care about the poor" stories, but through church and other charities, I also give plenty to help the poor and less fortunate, and it seems like all that happens is the number or poor and less fortunate grows in numbers in LA and SFO. So spare me the drama, mama. It's not a heart string that anyone wants to hear you play anymore. I'm saying there are a lot of people who COULD make better decisions on their own accord, and DON'T because they don't have have an incentive to do so...stay with me...because, y'know, why try harder when all you have to do is just show up for food, shelter, health care, education AND a monthly paycheck...all just for showing up. Hand up? Absolutely. Hand out? Pass. -
When you meltdown about everything, sometimes it's hard to keep track of your hypocrisy.

A 9/11 National Emergency? A definite 10 on the Meltdown Meter. -
I think this store owner gets a solid 10 on the Meltdown Scale. Art Gallery - Trump's Throat Slit On the bright side, he's not a rodeo clown wearing an Obama mask, so his job is probably safe.

What Bible are YOU reading? -
There is a tremendous effort put forth by people who worry SO much about how the US looks to the world. They use the same phrases they use for their sports teams: "We're the laughing stock! We're a joke!" Most adults know that what people think of us, as sports fans or Americans, is a waste of time. You can't control many things, but for every person who was embarrassed by Trump this week, there remains a number of thinking adults who let it go because they're smart enough to know how to play the long game. As I mentioned previously, Helsinki will pass and Kavanaugh will be the new cry, and the thinking adults will gain steam because no matter how much a certain party likes to whine and cry and gnash their teeth, thinking adults tire of it quickly.

Oh, NOW they want voter ID? What a bunch of assclowns.

First of all, half of America doesn't pay taxes, so to ask them if they want free money and to make other companies pay for it is like asking your child if they want ice cream for breakfast. It's a stupid poll. Do you want free money? Do you want companies to be taxed higher to give you this money? How big of a magoo do you have to be to NOT predict the outcome of something so embarrassingly stupid? Second of all, what's my party? -

That's not a winning poll by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, if I were the left, I'd hide that poll. It's embarrassing. -

Apparently the new gift from Alexandria is her explanation that the reason we have low unemployment is "because everyone has two jobs.” When you couple this with Obama coming out to explain that what the country needs is "universal income." Man, oh, man, it's like you leftist nutbags are BEGGING for more Trump. -
The Media's Portrayal of Trump and His Presidency
IDBillzFan replied to Nanker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think it goes something like "Russia, Russia, racists, alt-right, white supremacy, OGM Kavanaugh puts ketchup on his spaghetti!!!! Do you know how many women will die if he is on the Supreme Court?!?!?" -
Yes, the intelligence factor goes up so much higher when I read someone at TSW arguing that if you think McCoy is innocent, and it turns out he's guilty, you should be banned from TBD for life. Such high intelligence, it's amazing you could even find your way over here.

I think this is a solid 8. Judges?

Is that Boston? Because if that's Boston, I'm cool with it.
-
Yes. Trump's a poo-poo head and neener-neener.
-
This will never be more evident than when they stop raging about Putin 24/7 and return to raging about Kavanaugh 24/7. Mark it.
-
You don't know what you're talking about, but you do it with conviction. You sound like a solid 6 to me. Judges?

Wow. Gonna take a while to break down this wisdom. Well done. We have a meltdown meter here. It ranges from 1 to 10 and shows us, visually, how you all rank in meltdown mode. A 1 looks like this: A 5 looks like this: A 7 looks like this: And a 10 looks like this: Should we put you down for a 9 then?

That's quite the endorsement from someone who is something of an authority on the subject of "too sutpid (sic)."
