To help you out, Obama's employment numbers and stock market numbers are better than Reagan's at this point in his presidency.
You can't have it both ways arguing here that Obama's employment numbers are good and arguing elsewhere that people are underemployed and that the middle class is in decline. I'll agree with the 2nd part but the first part is based on lies, damn lies and statistics.
shhhh. Quiet. :mrgreen:

Good gosh you are delusional

Reagan started wars all over the planet. His chicken-shit response to the Lebanon Marine Massacre is what embolden the current crop of Islamic terrorist.
Horsecrap!

The PLO was active LONG before Reagan.

Arafat was coordinating suicide attacks years before you first jacked off to Bobby Sherman.
He said "current crop", sweetheart. :coffee:

Fail!

Hamas' was a 1987 Palestinian spinoff of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood (established in the 20's), created IN RESPONSE TO THE 1987 INTIFADA!

Hezbollah was a 1982 Lebanese spinoff of Shia Iranian political wing in response to Israel's 1982 incursions into Lebanon.

Reagan had no more influence upon the creation of muslim terrorist organizations than Justin Beiber had upon the Post-Modern era.

Wrong. Reagan's cowardly, weak-kneed response to the bombing of the Marines in Lebanon, the Marines that he sent over there unarmed, showed the terrorists that he was a paper tiger and emboldened them all. Stupid fvck should have listened to his astrologer. :coffee:

Because as "smart" as all the republicans are on this forum the Party elect seems to lack any creativity or intelligence whatsoever...

Hello, kalm. Hey man, just wanted to give you a call and let you know that your great work at cs.com is not going unnoticed here in the DPRK worker's paradise. Keep up the good work and there might be a Hero of the Revolution medal in it for you. Well, at least I won't execute you by flamethrower.

The barrack bombing was done by Hezbollah, trained and funded by Shia extremists in Syria and Iran.

We're talking about the CREATION of the "current crop" of muslim terrorists, not actions whuch "emboldened" existing terrorist organizations.

And, for our low info posters, just about ANYTHING emboldens muslim terrorists.

He's not off limits, but those numbers can't be argued. Not by anybody with a brainstem....

But I do appreciate your efforts to get some of the stank off of Obama...

Most of the quality jobs are long gone thanks to globalization. Having a conk or donk in the Oval Office isn't really going to change that.

So what would McCain or Romney have done to reverse economic forces that have been in motion for decades? Would everyone have high-salary jobs with great benefits if one of them had been elected? :coffee:
