Hey I didn't mean it as a personal attack. Was just using sarcasm like how you were sarcastic in your post. Oh and once again I don't know why people think I'm an Obama lover. The middle class shrinking goes back way before Obama though. There is just endless policies that only cater to the wealthy and powerful in this country.
as usual a super liberal's actions, in this case Guesser posting an article he believes is scathing to Conservatives, produces the exact opposite result.
a deadbeat that lives off the government tit and can't handle a car payment turned into an Obama-loving, and voting, idiot. wow, that's pretty harmful to the GOP
classic shit. thanks for the laughs guesser...much appreciated. hard to believe you openly sought out such a blog then decided it was so consequential that the rest of us needed to read this moron's drivel. you've been reading akphi's blog called "what smart people do"?

I'm not sure how you think the people are empowered by growing the federal government. We have had many socialist nations over the years, there's a long documented history, and socialism fails. It does not produce the wealth this nation has produced. The standard of living for our middle class and our poor is unsurpassed.
JFK said it best, an analogy everyone can relate to, "a rising tide raises all boats". It's all about economic growth and empowering free business and free people. It's about ambition, not some we're all the same mentality. Regulations and higher taxes and income redistribution stunts economic growth, something that's very easy to observe in recent years.
I'll conclude by saying you're belief system with respect to the federal government is the polar opposite of where the founding fathers wanted to go.
Blame the media, the celeb-rotten Hollywood culture and ignorant voters who buy into the bullshit propaganda.
he may be my favorite politician of all time
a warmonger or a realist?
he didn't start WWII, he wasn't responsible for Germany's military buildup. He just called it for what is was while others naively hoped for a different result
and he does believe in peace through strength too
was talking more about his policy of hate vs sudanese, indians, and just about anyone with brown skin
as far as WWII it was his decision to carpet bomb Germany that led to Hitler's barrage of anything and everything in Britain. Before then Hitler was going after manufacturing plants and military installations only

"I do not agree that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he may have lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race has come in and taken their place."
- sure sounds a lot like his supposed nemesis from Berlin, doesn't he?

a few other churchill beauties...let's just say i'm not a big fan of his
(During first World War): “Perhaps the next time round the way to do it will be to kill women, children and the civilian population.” (have to give him this one as he practiced what he preached in WWII)
“The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” (what else to expect from a British Imperialist who didn't believe Ireland and India had a right to freedom?)
“The unnatural and increasingly rapid growth of the feeble-minded and insane classes, coupled as it is with a steady restriction among all the thrifty, energetic and superior stocks, constitutes a national and race danger which it is impossible to exaggerate… I feel that the source from which the stream of madness is fed should be cut off and sealed up before another year has passed.” (yep, straight up eugenics ... sterilize the dumb and colored"

blah blah blah

Not really.
In the insane modern era of political correctness, 'race' is a loaded word.
What do you suppose would happen if a civilization far more advanced than humans landed on our planet? That we'd be their 'equal' at the bargaining table?
Think about it...one society builds ships, planes and modern sanitization. The other talks to trees and lives in straw huts.
What would you do?
Churchill was Captain Obvious, which why he's modern history's best leader.
It is very telling that "anti-colonial" Obama ("Dreams from my father") gave back the Churchill bust. This is a guy who DESPISES Western civilization and everything it has accomplished.
Libs watch too many James Cameron movies and think that's reality.
actually had nothing to do with his feelings on western civilization.... his grandfather was imprisoned for many months in Kenya for opposing churchill's colonialism and tortured by soldiers ... yep, churchill despised freedom for others
not sure what is scarier...you believing Churchy is "modern history's best leader" or akphi believing obama is the most meaningful character in modern history.
you're both a little dizzy i think
great leaders don't need to whine and beg for another country to finish a war they couldn't
Maybe the middle class is shrinking because the government has made it so dependent on the government. Not me, nor my friends. That's is my point. Work...... Get the fuck up and work. I worked for US Steel for 17 years. I quit and went on my own. Did I have good job? Hell yes. Wasn't enough for me. I wanted more. When life gets tough, get tougher. This country has lost focus. There are jobs, there always have been. Have you ever worked more than 100 hours a week? Would you?

Down here, I always expect the opposite of how normal sane people react. It's bizarro world, an extreme right wing blog. I knew exactly how the usual suspects would react. They are Pavlov's dogs.
Actually you are the Pavlov dog. Who cares why a worthless scumbag changes parties, probably never even voted. You posted the thread and the sane people reacted accordingly. I guess you started a thread to divert from the horrendous job Obama is doing in world affairs, the scandals, etc. Now you even Alinsky up "exact opposite of how normal sane people react". Just for clarification purposes is there such a thing as normal insane people. Get a clue dude.
I care more about what a soldier thinks about Politics, and how a guy came to his senses and finally voted his own pocketbook, more than what a ditz like Angelina Jolie thinks. But I'm a sane, rational person, who actually thinks about things, not a clueless partisan hack like you who is predictable EVERY single time, the definition of Pavlov's dog.
No that is completely false. Middle income jobs have been going bye bye since the late sixties intro the 70s. Your whole premise is insane. I'm an operating engineer so yes I know what hard work is like. But suggesting that people should be forced to work 50 + hours or even 100 like you said to live comfortably is beyond belief. We are human beings. We all deserve to live comfortably. We all deserve to have health care provided. It's not based on willingness to work. That whole argument is a myth and with time I could prove it with statistics if you would really care to have a civil debate about it
