I hate the idea of the cliff-falling, but since Obama refuses to even consider any other option, then let him and his army of self loving assholes tax themself into oblivion. Then when everything falls ontop of them, and it will, they will only be able to blame themselves, and give all credence to everything the Republicans have been saying about Obama. That is the ONLY way the leftists are ever going to see the truth about their omnipotent Obama. [/quote] ^^^That^^^ In the past [b]we have always rescued them from their personal stupidity.[/b] No more rescues to anybody, any corporation, any union, any state/county/city or town! Time to learn decisions/elections have consequences. [/quote] Absolutely. This is the problem with the Democrat/Republican dichotomy. Democrats can and will do anything to acquire and retain power, including destroying the lives of hundreds of millions of Americans. Republicans are constantly trying to rescue those same hundreds of millions of Americans. Democrats are busy drilling holes in the bottom of the boat so everyone will call them "Captain", and Republicans never cease to run around with chewing gum patches, trying to plug the holes while never "attacking" the evil bastards with the drill. Time to stop patching the holes. Time to shrug into a life raft and let the 'Rats go down with the ship. :sinking: [/quote] Only a fool would believe that. Neither party has your interest in mind. They both want your money, and want to use it for the people to which they are beholden. I'd bet you aren't one of those people. [/quote] I wondered when the White House bottom dwellers were going to arrive. Took longer than I thought. [/quote] Its cool man, I get it, you aren't intelligent enough to think for yourself. One day, when you grow up, and see this is all a farce, maybe you'll remember the day you disagreed with Rs and Ds being different sides of the same coin. [/quote] I do remember the days when Republicans and Democrats existed. They still do. Only those that would rather bury their heads in some slime pool rather than accepting the fact that they are the root of the problem. Those that truly believe that it makes no difference are those that are so self centered, self rightous, so demented, that they actually believe themselves to be correct simply because it takes too much effort to actually think on their own instead of allowing others to think for them. I have been on this earth sixty years, and I have seen a lot. But never have I seen such a piss poor collection of dim-wits and assholes as I do now. Everyone wants to point a finger at someone, but no one wants to look at why or whom they are pointing. It requires too much thinking and people today don't have time to think because they are too busy texting on their phones, catching up with each other on facefraud and twitterless, they have have forgotten how to have a life. How about this for a change. Grow up and get a life! [/quote] Seems to me you are the one doing the finger pointing. I instead of blaming others for any misfortune that comes to me, I look at the path that I took that brought the misfortune to me. Simple example, my car got hit while parked, the person did not leave a note. Am I mad at them, nope, I parked it there (in a parking spot, with a meter, enough distance between the car behind me and the one in front), so in the end that is my fault. You know how you and others or your ilk would have looked at it? Some welfare person, without a job, hit my car, probably didn't have insurance, nor a liscence, so the bum didn't leave a note. Like I said, when you grow up, maybe you'll start to see things for what they are. [/quote] I do see very very well. [b]I also see a whole lot of assholes that think that they have a right to destroy what they can't understand.[/b] I was there when the by-word was "can't we just get along", and laughted when it all came crashing down on their ears. You want to get along, but only if it suits your idea of what it should be. Lets go back to your anology. Your car got hit, but since you left it there, properly placed and in an area that should have provided some measure of protection, you don't get mad, because after all, you put it there. So, you don't get mad, don't do anything. Next day someone else's car gets hit, and the day after, all because no one thought that it should be worth making a fuss about, because after all, you all put the car there. Then it turns out that there is some nut going around telling everyone that he should have a right to smash your cars because he can only afford his piece of crap for a vehicle. He continues to smash cars because, after all you have the nice car you bought and paid for with your own hard earned money and he really does have a piece of shit for a car, so it is betteer to let him smash all the good cars so that his won't look so fucking bad. [/quote] I would say we should lock that person up, and since he was found, I'd like him to give me the money for my deductable. You make a very interesting statement (bolded). I think that is the major problem on all sides of any debate. Instead of trying to understand, the "civilation" that has been taken all over the world, has brought us a destroy first mentality.

SEN. RAND PAUL: I have yet another thought on how we can fix this. Why don't we let the Democrats pass whatever they want? If they are the party of higher taxes, all the Republicans vote present and let the Democrats raise taxes as high as they want to raise them, let Democrats in the Senate raise taxes, let the president sign it and then make them own the tax increase. And when the economy stalls, when the economy sputters, when people lose their jobs, they know which party to blame, the party of high taxes. Let's don't be the party of just almost as high taxes.
