To be a liberal. To stare HARD at the clouds and ignore the silver linings. To hope against hope that this is a false recovery and that the economy is not really coming back as hard and as fast as it is. To hope against hope that we flounder in Iraq. To pray that we don't find Osama in a spider hole like you said we would never get Sadam. To glower at the stock market on the rise. To seek to cast a pallor over America's future in the world as a super power. How sad, how very sad indeed. Conservatives aren't jumping for joy that these are the good ol days, but we're happy that things ARE getting better. We ARE winning battles in our war on terror. We ARE improving the economy. We ARE increasing home ownership. We ARE seeing an increase in jobs. Things are getting better and it just galls those would rather shove a tent spike though their ear than see Bush "re-elected".

Well said! The Demoncratic party is imploding. It's pretty funny to watch.

I'm right there with you.

Things are looking better every day yet it's hard to find someone willing to admit it.

M

I just LOVE that tent spike part. ROTFLMFAO! Good one.

From the background is heard...

SNICKERING

Yo Robby: Most excellently stated, but er could you possibly replace "tent spike " with " bad frog ", {:O) jk. JonR

Now you got me wondering if they'll let me pass out tent spikes at my local polling station next November.Actually we're pretty conservative here in South Orange County for the most part,but I could take a drive over to Ricks neck o' the woods...LOL

Man, I could go through several truckloads of tent spikes in this part of CA !! ... and I'm looking forward with greater anticipation than words can say to have the opportunity to do so ...

Robby

if you define anything incorrectly, the wrong conclusions will be drawn as evidenced by your definition.

some people look at things and say why, others look at things and say why not. liberals say why not.

It is sad indeed. An economic recovery minus jobs. X

arnt they donkys whats the word for that anyway?

For Rick...

Conservative "Let's outlaw liberals and lock them up."

Liberal "Why not."

How can there be an economic recovery "without jobs?" Isn't that an oxymoron? Of course there are jobs! New ones every day!! The economy is getting stronger, the market is up, interest rates stay low, and inflation stays low. How can ANYONE deny that things are at least getting better!!??

its the donkey mentality,doom sayers...

dont vote the liberal jack a s in for a weak America!

Robby,

I deny that things are getting better!

That's how.

Just kidding.

I'm optimistic. I think we're on the upswing. Doesn't mean there won't be bumps in the road. We just have to keep pushing forward.

USA!

do you guys mean better as in 5 or 6 years ago when we had a surplus and jobs and enviornmental protection, and an osha with some clout?

Rick, you're not stupid are you? I think you're really smarter than that! You know that there was a bubble in the stock market. That tech companies were valued at thousands of times their earnings? Don't you? You're not stupid are you? You know that the recession started BEFORE bush took office don't you? You know that 9/11 caused a deeper recession in our economy, don't you? YOU KNOW THAT BILL **** CLINTON DIDN'T DO A GOD DAMMED THING TO MAKE THE ECONOMEY OF THE LATE 90S DON'T YOU!!?? Sorry, don't you? If not, what was it? what did he do?

An honest answer please, no bull****.

LMAO. X

Robby, now that you are off your soap box please don’t classify all people belonging to a group as THINKING, FEELING, BELIEVING and or SAYING all the same things. IMHO, it’s just not right! Also, I see you think you’re above the rules to use profanity. Many of us BITE our tongue when we want to strike a cord; there are better ways for expression.

GIG’EM,

Dan

Da-Glyde,

We all know Robby's a bit of a firecracker. He's normally able to contain himself, to a degree, for the sake of this forum anyway. He's been under a bit of strain as of late so I think he deserves a bit of a break.

Fact is, he's right and his frustration is well founded. Though not entirely, the budget surplus was based largely on the unrealistic tech bubble. It's not fair for the liberals to credit Bill and criticize George for our economic trouble in the last few years.

Remember too, it does seem pretty clear that Bill had at least one opportunity to easily nab Bin Laden even after the first WTC attack, but let him slip through his fingers while he focused on keeping his ass out of a sling.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Clinton hater either. I just call 'em as I see 'em.
