  1.   Gotcha...couldn't remember the timeline of events.
  2.   Maybe BG is getting a waiting period confused with registration.
  3.   Yes sir...the good old days!   :)
  4.   To your point:   [Hidden Content]   From the article:   When compared with those in the past, the Obama recovery has been the slowest and weakest since the Great Depression. As The Wall Street Journal notes, the average quarterly GDP growth for all post-1960 recoveries was 4.1 percent, with total growth of 21.1 percent. Compare that to the anemic Obama recovery, which posted an average of 2.2 percent quarterly growth and a total of just 11.1 percent—about half the historic average.   Even more marked is the difference between the Obama recovery and the 1982–1983 Reagan recovery, which resulted in GDP growth of 23.1 percent over 17 quarters (25.6 percent for the entire recovery). According the Joint Economic Committee, this translates to a growth deficit of $2 trillion between Obama’s recovery and that under President Reagan. That is $2 trillion more that would be in the hands of U.S. businesses and workers today, when—despite the Obama supporters’ cheery sentiment—many American families are still aching financially.
  5. I have problems with every administration...they all spend too much, increase the size of gov and continuously add fed gov programs that should be handled at the state, county or city level.   The only difference is the Republicans and Democrats feel they can overspend more wisely on their particular interests than the other.   Their ideological differences, however, are getting smaller and smaller.
  6.   You got us...having qualified trained volunteer teachers carrying weapons to protect the kids is the same thing as wanting to arm the kids...smh.
  7. So don't watch it...problem solved!
  8. Fox has lots of liberal regulars such as Jaun Williams, Bob Beckel and Kirsten Powers to name a few. None of the liberal outlets feature nearly as many (if any) conservatives. Liberals hate Fox because they are #1 ...if you hate it simply change the channel...or actually watch it and draw your own conclusion rather than go on the talking points you hear by other outlets Fox is killing.
  9. I'll try again for...what are the news outlets you trust.
  10. And he did have that other little side job... Oh yeah, Governor of California
  11.   Just curious...what are your trusted news outlets?
  12.   There's your answer in a word.   Control=dependence=votes!

  14. So should we stop whining and begin applauding failure?
  15. I never understand why so many want the gov to do so much for them in their everyday lives...things they should be taking care of themselves.
  16. Agree...and there are still folks who want them running our Healthcare system...smh. And did you know my insurance went up...heard about it on Fox news.
  17. Higher cost for health insurance... me and everyone at my company is paying more for health insurance as a direct result of obamacare... so we can provide others the subsidies to make their health insurance cheaper. Just one more variation of welfare.
  18. From the article:   It doesn’t feel like leadership. It doesn’t feel like you’re in command of your world. How can we accept these reduced expectations and truculent passivity from the man who offered himself up as the moral beacon of the world, even before he was elected?   I doubt he was very appreciative of this article...it did criticize his critics but it pointed out his weakness as well. 
  19. Still praying for your sister and your family...and wisdom for the doctors.
  20. [Hidden Content]   From the article:   Baier then asked Vietor whether he personally changed the word “attack” to “demonstrations” in the talking points for Rice. “Maybe, I don’t really remember,” Vietor said. When pressed by Baier, Vietor said, “Dude, this was like two years ago. We're still talking about the most mundane process.”
  21. :rolleyes:
  22.   77, you know I am no fan of Obama's policies and I believe he makes spending on entitlements more of a priority than programs the fed gov SHOULD be funding such as the VA.   But I could say the same thing about Bush and his funding for Education and Medicare Part D.   The VA has had problems for years.
  23.   I was speaking more of his priority on which issue to address in the press.   As far as funding, I'm not sure that any modern day Presidents have made it a priority...would have to research to compare.
