Only in America...

Only in America...

a)... could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000 per plate campaign fund raising event.

b)... could people claim that the government still discriminates against blacks when there is a black president, a black attorney general, two out of the last three secretary of states have been black, roughly 18% of the federal work force is black while only 12% of the population is black.

c)... could we have the two people largely responsible for current the tax code- Fed Chairman Geithner and former House Ways and Means head Rangel- BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.

d)... can terrorists kill thousands of innocent people in the name of Allah and have the media primarly worried about the backlash against Muslims.

e)... could we make people who want to become American citizens wait in their home countries for years and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege while we discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just become a citizen through amnesty.

f)... could people who believe in balancing the budget and adhering to the constitution be labeled extremists.

g)... could you need to present a drivers license to buy booze, cash a check, get on an airplane, or get in a strip club, but not to vote.

h)... could people demand that oil companies be investigated for "gouging" the public because the price of gas rose when the return on equity invested in a major US oil company (marathon) is less than half that of a company making tennis shoes using foreign child labor (Nike).

i)... could the government collect more taxes than any nation in recorded history, still spend a trillion dollars more than it takes in per year for total spending of $7 million per minute, and still complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.

j)... could the "rich" people who pay 86% of the total income taxes paid be acused of not paying their fair share by those who pay no income taxes at all.

What do you make, Z? Your income is essentially derived from nickle and diming hard working people through fees and charging them a premium to borrow other hard working people's money.

You are almost worthless.

You, Z, are no John Galt. :lol:

Yeah, Z, I get it. You're John Galt :lol: You still don't produce or create anything. The economy would be fine without you.

Puh-LEASE, Bitch.

You have 10,502 posts, 10,500 of which are directly related to berating the existence of a creator and belittling any who would deign to disagree with your misguided opinion. Then you accidentally let it slip in post 10,501 that you actually believe in ONE creator...that trumps any weak-ass, overused John Galt reference any day of the week and twice on Sundays. :kisswink:

So the implication of the above is that now somehow (out of the blue) a Republican is going to actually address the issues listed up there ^ we've been waiting all this time - Republican after Republican but now all of a sudden this is going to get fixed

And the guy the Republicans have selected to address these things listed
Wears magic underwear and believes that women are cattle and God comes from a "planet"
and Jesus appeared in Utah (with a swarm of seagulls apparently) You can't make this crap up...

So this guy
and the Majority of Republicans that have been in the senate and Congress over the decades have all now just decided this needs to be fixed..?

Seriously..?
This just in: Governments don't get smaller
Committees don't disband themselves
Chairmen don't give back the money
Boards and Committees and Administrations of Government branches don't diminish their roles of influence
They do not seek less control and seek less less funding and reduce their control

Here's what this is about:
You just like the stuff Republicans SAY - the lies they tell you feel better than the lies Democrats tell you
None of them change anything / accomplish anything
They feather their own bed
as they see fit and kneel to the fourth Branch of Government
Newest and most powerful Branch - called Lobby and Special interest
These are their true bosses
This is where they will work the second they don't get re-elected
this is all they respond to


As you were gentlemen
Please continue pretending Republicans do what they say they're going to do
or all of a sudden are going to start :lol: good luck / none of them care

John Galt is a creator of wealth, you are a fucking moneyhandler and a colossal dumbfuck . You don't create shit and you're one notch on the asshole ladder above lawyers. :lol:
