271. 1) To countries offering the lowest wages and most lax environmental regulations...

Sat Jan 18, 2014, 06:57 PM

Jan 2014

hell, even Homer Simpson understands that.

2) Because Clinton is a DLC New Democrat, and New Democrats embrace trade agreements, welfare reform, charter schools, and some Social Security privatization, while rejecting single-payer healthcare. New Democrats also supported Bush's disastrous Iraq War. How's that multi-trillion dollar mistake working out? If I'm not mistaken, the DLC received money from the Bradley Foundation and Koch Industries. Why would a supposedly Democratic organization accept money from right wingers? Obama, and Hillary for that matter, are cut from the same New Democrat cloth, only now they're taking marching orders from Third Way offices at 1025 Connecticut Avenue, NW.

3) Pensions are a thing of the past, so many workers' retirements are now invested in the crapshoot known as the stock market. Which is all fine and dandy until Enron. WorldCom. Bubble collapses. The DJIA plummeting 54% in 17 months (between 2007's high and 2009's low). Many of those middle class who "benefited" have delayed retirement, if they can retire at all. And the working poor will NEVER retire. Yeah, life is good.

We needed "revolution" after George W. Instead, we got Captain Bipartisanship. What a colossally wasted opportunity...

That's . ProSense Jan 2014 #341

Answered already - no, obviously. Why would I be afraid? polichick Jan 2014 #342

Good, you support nasty attacks that are against DU rule. ProSense Jan 2014 #345

Just because you call something a "nasty attack" doesn't make it one. polichick Jan 2014 #346

Do you disagree ProSense Jan 2014 #352

I disagree with you that it was a "nasty attack"... polichick Jan 2014 #355

You ProSense Jan 2014 #356

I don't feel "angry" or "pissed." Just calling it like I see it. polichick Jan 2014 #357

What do you see? Can you point to and provide actual evidence of what you "see"? ProSense Jan 2014 #358

You seem to be projecting. If you're interested in what I see... polichick Jan 2014 #360

That doesn't make sense. You're the one accusing people of being "paid shills/sock puppets" ProSense Jan 2014 #362

Where did I do that? polichick Jan 2014 #363

You know, it's becoming clear that you're deliberately not making sense. ProSense Jan 2014 #367

Can't find the quote? polichick Jan 2014 #368

Well, ProSense Jan 2014 #369

You'll have to do better than that. In #362 you said... polichick Jan 2014 #371

Hey, I'm "just calling it like I see it." ProSense Jan 2014 #373

I don't deny anything I said - I deny there's a quote that backs up your reading... polichick Jan 2014 #374

Why ProSense Jan 2014 #384

Are you afraid to own up to your projection? A simple apology will do. polichick Jan 2014 #385

Yup, ProSense Jan 2014 #387

Nice apology! polichick Jan 2014 #388

Must be a gang mentality thing Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #333

To me it looks like #298 was trying to call out "the gang." polichick Jan 2014 #335

Uhuh Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #337

Nice try. polichick Jan 2014 #338

Right Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #339

What are you talking about? polichick Jan 2014 #340

Seriously? Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #343

My response made sense. You could try that. polichick Jan 2014 #344

Uhuh. Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #348

Still not making sense - what are you suggesting? Put it in words... polichick Jan 2014 #350

I did. Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #351

And I said that #298 seemed to be calling out "the gangs"... polichick Jan 2014 #354

Playing dumb Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #359

It might help if you actually said anything or asked anything... polichick Jan 2014 #361

No, dear.... Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #370

Finally, enough words to say what you mean... polichick Jan 2014 #372

To the bitter end.... Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #376

Where's my "gang?" Perhaps you are projecting your gang... polichick Jan 2014 #378

Yeah Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #383

Still can't come up with that awful gang? polichick Jan 2014 #386

Silliness doesn't get you off the hook. Gang names please. polichick Jan 2014 #390

Obtuse to the bitter end. Bobbie Jo Jan 2014 #393

I'm not the one dangling. You make an accusation - back it up... polichick Jan 2014 #394
