So, you came up with these right off the top of your head? Amazing what a little brainwashing can bring out. Keynsian economics is not IN THE LEAST akin to Marxism, and Progressives do NOT believe in big inefficient government any more than Republicans do. The Progressive movement, as personified in the person of Gov. LaFollette of Wisconsin, envisioned a government that met the needs of all of its citizens, while leaving the individuual the personal freedom to make his own choices and assume his own responsibility, “They don’t believe that mankind has natural rights …”? Is that what you believe? Who do you think wrote the Declaration of Independence, a bunch of conservatives who didn’t want to break from the British king? Thomas Jefferson, et al, may not have gone by the title of “Progressive”, but they represent one of the most progressive things that has happened in the history of the world, and that is the birth of this nation. Perhaps you should read it, apparently you have forgotten what it says and who wrote it.

Robbie, the quote from Bastiat absolutely has NOTHING to do with, nor does it even insinuate, that he or I are anarchists. There you go again. Putting words in people’s mouths that don’t exist. But that’s typical leftist freak. Assuming the worst of what someone else thinks or believes because they do not agree with you. After all, in leftist freak world, anyone that disagrees with you about big government MUST be an anarchist. Simply not true. Not about me, nor about Bastiat. BTW… I am impressed that you even went to Wiki to look him up. Nice work!

Below is one of my favorite quotes of his. It precisely sums up you, and the leftist freak propensity to be disingenous in their tactics. Even then, he figured it out. How true it is. How true it is.

Have a nice day!

“Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain.”

― Frédéric Bastiat, The Law

Robbie… there you go again. How do you know I suuported/did not support the Patriot Act? Yes, the very one that Obozo has reauthorized? There you go again, again… Complaining about Bush for one thing while ignoring the same thing, only worse, in Obozo. Just what the hell do you call the NDAA? Has the issue of indefinite detention of Americans IN AMERICA without due process been a non-issue for you? You bitch about bush putting water on a terrorists face, but it’s OK for Obozo The King to have a Kill List that he, and only he, can determine and send drones to kill those very same people that you did not like having water in their faces. Water in the face bad, death by drones OK. That is the way you see it, don’t you? Hmmm….

And John Adams and the Aliens and Seditions Acts? Really? That was bad law no doubt, but it was used by BOTH the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans against one another. So it’s not really something that proves your point, now is it? Adams and Bush were the worst assaults on individual freedoms? You are really grasping at straws now. Perhaps you seem to forget about that little WWII thing with FDR rounding up Japanese Americans, confiscating their property, and putting them into detention camps against their will? Yeah, right. Sure, sure. Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along. Hmmm…

And what the hell do you call Obozocare FORCING Americans to purchase a private product and service or pay fines that esacalate annually? That’s not an infringement on individual freedom? What the hell is it, then?

Just finishing my taxes for 2012. More than 40% of every dollar I earn… that is 40% of my time and labor, are being confiscated by all levels of government. There are many that are paying over 50% of their time and labor. At what point is having forced confiscation of my earnings, the fruits of my time and labor, not a restriction on my freedom? At what point does it earily begin to resemble slavery in a different disguise? Where do high taxes and wealth transfer payments get the most support, Dems or Repubs? So who is it that eroding my freedoms? The progressives. That’s who. I don’t here you bitching about that. In fact, you are a supporter of that.

I smell the burning pot of rancid hypocrisy with you, Robbie. Common amongst the leftist freak set.

Have a nice day!

“But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime.” ― Frédéric Bastiat, The Law

what’s up whut, you racist pig? I’d ask how it was that you could be so stupid as to believe that lables of political ideologies don’t change over time, but then again, we already know how stupid you are… and that’s EXTREMELY stupid.

I keep reading your posts and think to myself that you’ve hit rock bottom. And in the very next post, I learn that not only have you hit rock bottom, but you’ve started to dig again reaching new levels of foolishness. I think the only person on The Memo that’s more stupid than you is Fern Woodfork, and that’s saying something!!! Calling her dumb as a rock is an insult to rocks. You are in her category.

Our founders were not progressive in the modern sense. “Progressive” in the modern sense means “collectivism”, or more adequately expressed, socialism. That is 100% in direct opposition to the principles of individual freedom, individual sovereignty, liberty, free market economics, and very limited government. To say that they are the same is the statement of a complete fool. That’s you, you racist pig.

Remain oblivious, and have a nice day, you racist pig!

“The difference between being stupid and being a fool: A stupid person at least has an idea about their own inadequacies. The fool is oblivious to them, and is more inclined to believe their own fantasies and lies as truth.” – ObozoMustGo

When dealing with drooling bigots (such as you), stupidity is expected. In your case, however, it’s surprising that you’ve somehow managed to remember how to breathe.

Allow me to explain something to you: The reason we have different words is to impart different meanings. Progressive, collective and socialist all have their own meanings. Naturally you don’t understand any of the meanings, so to you the terms are interchangeable.

It’s understandable that throwbacks to earlier human evolution (such a you) fear progress, because any given advance could mean that they now find themselves out of the ‘evolutionary loop’ (so to speak). What they (and you) don’t realize is that you are already out of the loop, and the rest of humanity is just waiting for you knuckle-draggers to die off. No matter how much you whine, snivel and squeal, the day will soon come when you and your kind are mere curiosities to read about in a history book, or perhaps to view at the local museum as part of the Homo Bigotus Assholius exhibit.

So squeal all you want — I don’t mind. And don’t go away angry — just go away knowing that Obama has made you obsolete.

Because you are a drooling bigot, it’s only natural that you should be confused. Since the vast majority of your limited intellect is preoccupied with the effort required to remember to breathe, you have little left to spend on word definitions.

It’s rather unlikely that you and Obama agree on the definition of any word. It’s far more likely that Obama understands the meaning of ‘progress’ while you more or less stumble upon the same meaning by accident.

Frothing racists like you are usually more reactionary than conservative — even if you don’t really understand the meaning of either term (since you must commit most of your effort to remembering to breathe).

I won’t waste my time attempting to explain the meaning of ‘progress’ to you: suffice it to say that it’s not a part of your past or future, and therefore you shouldn’t waste your time worrying about it. You have enough to do trying to remember to breathe and pondering the virtues of soap. If you can conquer those two subjects you will exceed all expectations for you.

Skin color matters to you, which is why you spend so much time and energy writing ridiculous, shrill, and simpering posts that do nothing but attack Obama. Why do you do this? Because you are a redneck bigot LOSER, of course, and it both infuriates you and causes you great pain that a black man is currently the President of the United States — YOUR LEADER.

Why does it infuriate you and cause you pain that we have a black President? Because you are a redneck loser, and you wish that somebody was inferior to you so that you could feel better about yourself. Because you were taught that black skin means inferiority, you become angry and frustrated to see that a black man (Obama) has achieved far more than you ever will, and is better than you in every way. Because you want to believe that you aren’t the very bottom of the barrel, you become unhinged when you are forced to see that you ARE, in fact, the very dregs of society. You react to this realization by attacking Obama at every opportunity.

Nothing is lower on the evolutionary scale than a slobbering, slack-jawed, sister-humping redneck bigot. You are despised and ridiculed throughout the world, and even those living near your trailer park wish a stray SCUD missile would suddenly drop from the sky and clean up your little cesspool by vaporizing you AND your pickup truck. Some people understand that you actually have a useful purpose, either as living warnings to their children about the heartbreaking consequences of humping your sister or as God’s gift to normal people who need somebody to slap around without worrying about hurting REAL people.

But your heartache will never go away, that is, at least not until you do. Drooling redneck bigots are dying off (because God doesn’t hate us that much), but they just make such an awful racket doing it. Squealing and snorting, stamping their feet, whining, sniveling, crying and flapping out endless lies through their toothless gums.

When you finally do go to that big trailer park in the sky, Obama will still be here. He’ll still be better than you. He’ll still be more successful than you, and wealthier than you, and more popular than you. And…

… he’ll be black the WHOLE TIME!!

(hee-hee)

Have a nice day!

Oooo … ‘vapid’ — you must have forgotten to breathe for a minute while straining to come up with that one!

Funny how you like to assert that a person must be guilty of the very things they accuse others of — how does that fit in with your continuous and never-ending barrage of accusations that Obama is a ‘liar’, ‘socialist’, ‘communist’, ‘demagogue’, ‘incompetent’, etc., etc.?

I can’t say that I possess your expertise in ‘spotting turd[s] against the bottom of a white toilet’ — so I’ll just take your word for that one. Perhaps you have the occasional incident with family members who have wandered off and become lost — I don’t know. The funny thing is that you have no idea what the color of my skin might be or where I might live, so although you obviously chafe with the urge to hurl a racial insult at me, you are just barely intelligent enough to realize that you would look like more of a fool than you already appear by doing so.

Only a drooling bigot would create a screen name for the sole purpose of disparaging a person who they don’t even know. Your deeply-rooted hate for Obama tells us more about you than about him. A person who personally hates somebody who they don’t know has a character defect the magnitude of which is proportional to the expression(s) of hate. In other words, you have a GLARING character defect as evidenced by your excessive personal hate for a man you don’t even know. What could possibly be the root of that character defect? I know the answer, but feel free to explain it yourself.

Robbie, you apparently have not read many of my postings over the past year. Clearly, I am no defender of Bush and his profligate spending. But you cannot blame Bush for being a big spender and let Obozo off the hook for it when he has been 2x as bad. The whole reason Obozo hasn’t done a single budget in his tenure is precisely so it gives him the ability to blame Bush and let all you leftist freaks believe his lies. Once he does a budget, he owns the spending. Further, you obviously have comprehension problems in reading what I wrote. There is no segregation between “progressives”, which is an ideology based on Marxist philosophy, and Republicans, which is a party as you know. Like I said, for the past 100 years progressives have existed in BOTH parties. Conservatives have as well, but the tide turned beginning in the 60′s where progressives began the complete takeover of the DemonRAT party and have infiltrated the Republican party even more. Herbert Hoover was a progressive. Bush 1 was a progressive. Bush 2 was a progressive on many issues, and that was his main problem. Our fiscal mess is NOT only Obozo’s fault. But like I said, you cannot criticize the prior president and let the current one off the hook for committing the same generational theft at a rate that is 2x the prior. Further, you leftist freaks love to forget that the DemonRATS controlled Congress since Jan. 2007. THAT little piece of forgetful information absolutely had an effect on spending. Look at the graph below of actual spending deficits under Bush and Obozo. DemonRAT control shows up in the 2008 spending. Also, since Obozo was the guy that signed the continuing resolutions for spending, by your rationale, he owns it even if it wasn’t a formal budget. The other little tidbit you leftist freaks fail to understand is that the so-called “Stimulus” bill of $890 BILLION in Feb. 2009 that Obozo signed became baselined into the annual federal spending as virtually everything in the federal budget is handled. That spending is a major chunk of Obozo’s annual deficits as can easily be seen below in the graphic.

One more point… I find it hilarious that you cite Obozo’s 2006 floor speech as having no effect on Bush. For Pete’s sake, Robbie, OBOZO’S OWN SPEECH HAS HAD NO EFFECT ON OBOZO!!! Of course, he didn’t really mean what he said when he said it. He was running for the presidency at the time and every word from his fetid pie hole was LIE. Just like it is today. Just like he bald-faced lied about the sequester being the Republican’s idea and which Bob Woodward proved his lies in his piece in the Wash Compost last weekend. I think your making of that statement is more of an indictment on your lack of critical thinking skills than mine, my friend. Typical. Leftist freaks always try to have it both ways, don’t you?

Have a nice day, Robbie!

“Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.” ― Mark Twain, Pudd’nhead Wilson

Robbie… that’s a good insult. I like it. Re “Progessive” definition. I certainly must have hit a nerve with you by linking your ideology to Marx, haven’t I? You probably don’t like it because it’s true. You love Obozo’s class warfare politics as evidenced by this false belief that the “rich don’t pay their fair share” kind of rhetoric. But dude, that’s nothing different than Marx’s “proletariat vs. bourgeois” garbage. It’s the same exact crap. You can’t run from it. You’ve writtenand echoed the same things in your posts to me. There is NO DIFFERENCE. You may not like it, but it’s true. Examine your own beliefs and write them down. Post it, and I will translate them into Marx-speak for you. Then you will see how closely related your thougts are. You will also see how true it is that Obozo resembles much more of Karl Marx than he resumbles of George Washington. Of that, there is no doubt. Obozo believes in collectivism which is just another strain of socialism.

Havee a nice day!

“Individual actions, individual dreams, are not sufficient. We must unite in collective action, build collective institutions and organizations.” ~ Barrack Hussein Obozo in a 1995 interview with a leftist Chicago journal

what’s up whut, you racist pig?

Dude, you really are a crack smoker, aren’t you? That or you are just really THAT stupid. Or both. Me bet is BOTH!

Now let’s see. Obozo comes into office. Debt at just over $10 TRILLION. Obozo passes so-called “stimulus package” for $887 BILLION in Feb. 2009 and that is baselined into his annual spending. Of course he adds more spending on top of that and has annual deficits from 2009 to 2012 of $1.4T, $1.3T, $1.3T, and $1.3T, respectively. The largest deficit under Bush was $465B. Obozo TRIPLED the profligacy of Bush. A hard feat to accomplish, no doubt. But when it comes to spending, Obozo is the king.

Those are the numbers. The numbers are the facts. Look at the graphic for visual proof. For you to conclude anything else indicates how absolutely STUPID you are. What an idiot!!!

Remain oblivious, and have a nice day, you racist pig!

“The difference between being stupid and being a fool: A stupid person at least has an idea about their own inadequacies. The fool is oblivious to them, and is more inclined to believe their own fantasies and lies as truth.” – ObozoMustGo

what’s up whut, you racist pig?

Dude, you are a crack smoker. No question about it. Only an idiot like you can think that the addition of $6 TRILLION in debt under Obozo’s watch is a reduction in spending. And only and idiot like you can say something like Obozo’s $890 BILLION so-called “stimulus” did not add $890 BILLION to the deficit. Only a stone-cold moron like you does not understand that the so-called “stimulus” has become baselined into annual spending ON TOP of already existing budget deficits.

You see, numbers never lie and liars use numbers, and damned liars use statistics. And that is exactly what you are doing. By focusing on the fact that Obozo started with a $1.5 TRILLION deficit in yr. 1 and the fact that it would be nearly impossible to increase that number year after year (though if anyone can do it, Obozo can), because the following years’ deficits are lower than $1.5 TRILLION, that this is somehow a good thing.

ONLY AN ABSOLUTE SLACK-JAWED IDIOT ACTUALLY BELIEVES SUCH PROPAGANDA. You know you’re lying and decieving, but continue doing it with some fantasy in mind that you’re influencing someone else. Only people that are as stupid as you can be influenced by your stupidity. Any rational thinking person knows how full of sheet you are.

Corrections are in order for your decieved and clouded pea brain:

1) Reagan’s spending went up WITH DemonRAT Tip O’Neill. And it was entirely related to the fact that the Reagan tax cuts resulting in a BOOMING economy that grew at 5% to 7% year over year. This of course is going to result in a flood of revenues into the Treasury. Only an idiot like you does not recognize this. Unfortunately, Reagan believed the liar Tip O’Neill when he promised future spending cuts of $3 for every dollar in revenue increase. And just like Obozo’s outright lies, O’Neill’s outright lies never came to fruition.

2) The housing bubble was 100% engineered by government. And it was Slick Willie that did it through the Community Reinvestment Act and the authority over banks to force them into lending to people that could not afford loans in the first place. Remember the term “Red Lining”? Remember the whole government push to increase homeownsership in the mid 90′s? Well, they forced banks to loan in areas that they would not otherwise do. In fact, B. Hussein Obozo repreesented ACORN in the first lawsuit against a bank for “red lining”. Betcha didn’t know that did you, you moron. Banks were resistent, so politicians agreed to have the taxpayers take on the risk through Fannie & Freddie. Greenspan did his part by making money lower cost to borrow. New loans that let anyone qualify for much more than they otherwise would have and now we have a bubble. Bush and the Repubs in 2004 and 2005 tried to regulate Fannie & Freddie more tightly. Even Greespan testified in Congress about the looming dangers of the housing bubble in 20004. But the DemonRATS in Congress blocked the attempts. Bush and the Repubs were to feckless and weak to overcome the opposition. Mostly that was Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, both of whom were cozied up to the parties of this debacle. Barney was screwing some dude at Fannie (pun intended) and Dodd was getting sweatheart deals on properties with his buddy Angelo at Countrywide, the mortgage company at the heart of the blow up. Countrywide and others made horrible loans and then sold them off to Fannie and Freddie who guaranteed them, bundled them up, and sold them to Wall Street either directly or through the lenders with government backing. And what does Wall Street do with government “guaranteed” mortgages? They buy them. Lots of them. And that money floods back to the lenders to in turn create more mortgages. Increase supply of easy money into any market will drive prices higher. This is EXACTLY how the bubble was created. It’s 100% the fault of meddling politicians with a social goal that skewed an otherwise very stable market and drove the bubble. Of course there were some bad actors in the private sector as well, but the scenario that allowed them to thrive was driven by government. You can go watch C-SPAN recordings of the hearings yourself on YouTube.

There, now you have the truth about Reagan and the housing bubble.

Have a nice day, you racist pig!

what’s up whut, you racist pig? Boy, you are steeped in the Kool-Aid, aren’t you? You’d make Jim Jones proud.

The plain fact is that the CRA was an Act passed and signed into law by the now 2nd worst president in history, Jimmy “peanut brain” Carter in 1977. That was the law Slick Willie used to give community organizations (read ACORN) standing to sue banks for lending practices referred to as “red lining”. This is 100% accurate.

The S&L crisis was a crisis of regulation. The problem was that they only deregulated 1/2 of the balance sheet, liabilities, and not the other half, assets. It’s not that they need more regulations, it’s that they needed less regulation on their assets to counterbalance what they were doing with their liabilities. You’re too stupid know what that means, I am sure. Once again, we have government meddling screwing things up. Of course when the politicians screw up, they blame the businessmen and then let the taxpayers pick up the tab for their screw ups.

The plain fact of the matter is that you believe in government, I believe in freedom. Who the hell is dumb enough, besides you, to believe that some politician or bureaucrat knows more about runnign a business than the owners and managers of those businesses? Who made the bureaucrats the masterminds? And nothing is wrong with a business failing because of bad decisions. But politicians cannot be stopped from their endless efforts to meddle and control that which is not theirs to control.

Aside from the fact that you have this unjustifiable belief in government, you also are a racist pig and see everything through the prism of skin color. I don’t.

Have a nice day, you racist pig!

“The man of system . . . is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamoured with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government, that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it. He goes on to establish it completely and in all its parts, without any regard either to the great interests or to the strong prejudices which may oppose it. He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chess-board. . . .” —Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, 1759

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” – C. S. Lewis

“If there was no government to protect you, then somebody would just come and snatch away all your goodies” whuthesasid

Easy to say, impossible to prove. This hypothetical somebody didn’t account for the 305 million guns or that the government doesn’t have them all.

Robbie, you are correct. It’s hard for me to generate respect for leftist freaks, aka idiots. It is possible, just difficult. As to why I am here??? Why go to places where I agree with everyone? It’s far more fun to be in battle than to be on the sidelines. Besides, what would you leftist freaks do without me or Montanabill and the scant few like us that show up ar0und here to give you all a schooling in common sense and liberty? You may hate me, but I make it fun for you. It’s why you keep responding.

Have a nice day!

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” ― George Orwell

Respect coming from somebody like you means very little. What you need to do is look around you and see who and what the American public respects — that’s what counts. Why do you think that you and the rest of the Tea Bigots are reviled throughout the country and getting booted from office in droves?

It’s reality that you have a beef with — not ‘leftists’. We have a black President — that’s reality. Your whole online persona is a knee-jerk reaction to that reality, but it hasn’t changed things one little bit. As long as you don’t mind being the proverbial fart in the wind, by all means keep whining and sniveling. Obama will still be here for the next 4 years regardless, and yes…

…he’ll be black the WHOLE TIME!!

(hee-hee)

Have a nice day!
