Subject: RE: BS: Obama Wants To Sell The TVA From: gnu Date: 23 Apr 13 - 06:08 AM Why can't the cap be enforced? Why would privatization be any different than raising the supply price to meet the cap? To me, that is spineless on the part of politicians. It takes the control of the supply price away from the people and gives it to a for-profit enterprise. This is about a utility, not a duck call manufacturer. |

Subject: BS: Obama wants to Socialize Lactation From: Jack the Sailor Date: 23 Apr 13 - 04:29 AM In an unprecedented big government plan his plan is to issue breast pumps, to all lactating women collect the milk in predetermined holding facilities then redistribute the natural bounty to any citizen who has an NRA sticker on their car. "I'm gonna milk those mothers for what they got and give those crybabies what they deserve." He was quoted as saying. |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Wants To Sell The TVA From: Joe Offer Date: 23 Apr 13 - 04:22 AM Damn. And I thought we were safe from privatization, now that Thatcher and Reagan are dead... It figures, though - it was a Democrat (Clinton-Gore) who privatized me out of a government job. -Joe- Here's it is, from page 51 of Obama's 2014 Budget Proposal:

Subject: RE: BS: Obama's Budget From: Stringsinger Date: 15 Apr 13 - 01:38 PM That's the plan, all right. Problem is that the House is dominated by crazies from the Tea Party and the GOP. The House will probably not pass it because the majority party is out to get Obama. The biggest mistake is the cutting of Social Security and Welfare for political reasons. This will follow Obama in his budget. The House majority will never accept tax hikes for the wealthiest of Americans. Obama has already compromised his budget to get the GOP to budge. Most Americans don't like this and consider Obama to have betrayed them. I wonder why Americans vote representatives to create stalemates in governing bodies? |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama's Budget From: Rapparee Date: 14 Apr 13 - 09:54 PM The President sends a budget PROPOSAL to the House. The House passes it and sends it to the Senate. The Senate passes it and sends it to the President for enactment. If the Congress doesn't like the proposal or some part of it they can change it. What's hard to understand about this? |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama's Budget From: Bobert Date: 14 Apr 13 - 09:37 PM Seein' as anything that the wrongman posts is 100% Obama hate this thread should be moved to the "Obama Hate" thread where it belongs... That is the purpose of that thread... You know, to keep the hate in one area so that it doesn't spread... Kinda like fighting cancer... Yo, moderators... Please combine... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: Don Firth Date: 14 Apr 13 - 08:19 PM Goofy, your opinion is as the empty wind blowing across the desert, carrying before it nothing but dust and sand, and the hollow sound of its own howling. Whether the songs posted are the best work I can do is not at issue. The fact is, people paid to listen to me sing. In concerts, coffeehouses, and on television. Repeatedly. I made a good living that way for a substantial percentage of my life. So I don't care what you think. By the way, you have yet to "blow a hole" through any of my opinions. Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama's Budget From: Stringsinger Date: 14 Apr 13 - 05:53 PM Obama has made a serious error by putting FDR's Social Security and Johnson's Medicare "on the table". Of course the GOP has not done better by insisting on deeper cuts to public programs. The enactment of the NDAA is a serious breach of democracy. The Second Amendment has lost it's historical meaning. No British soldiers quartered in America. A well-regulated militia doesn't call themselves the NRA. The other big mistake will be to approve the Keystone XL Pipeline against the criticisms held by climate scientists over the world. There are a few nutty dissenters but they carry no weight and are mostly shills for corporations but that's another thread. The Democratic and Republican Parties have both been corrupted by lobbying money and John Roberts (who should be impeached for claiming corporations are people in the Citizen's United ruling). That's also another thread. The problem is that the system is broken. Money has corrupted it. Obama is not totally to blame here but it has to be shared by Congress, some members of the Senate, the Tea Party, The GOP and Dems. There are no good actors in the halls of government these days which is controlled by corporate interests (a definition of fascism) and the dilution of the effectiveness of government agencies bought out by the revolving door. We need a strong grass roots movement to push Obama into better decisions. That won't come by moaning and groaning, whining and pulling hair out over Obama. It's time to grow up and take action. |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: GUEST,Guest from Sanity Date: 14 Apr 13 - 03:41 PM Firth: "And Bobert, I'm not totally happy with the songs that Bob (Deckman) put on the archive web site,..." You're not happy with much of anything except your own opinions..then go into a 'tizzie-fit' when holes get blown open all through them. Just a friendly observation. GfS |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: Don Firth Date: 14 Apr 13 - 01:51 PM What question, Goofy!?? If you can't restate the question in straightforward, readable English, then we have to assume that there was no question, and you're just doing your thing again. ======= And Bobert, I'm not totally happy with the songs that Bob (Deckman) put on the archive web site, but he didn't really have much choice. Many of them were taken from his collection of miles and miles of open-reel tapes, many of which were recorded at parties, song fests, and informal hootenannies ("informal hootenannies"—that's redundant!), where we often tried out songs for the first time that we had just learned, and often they hadn't quite "jelled" yet. Some of the ones he has of me were also on open-reel tape, home recordings off the air of the "Ballads and Books" educational television series I did in 1959. The other voice on the records is Buzz Anderson, a broadcasting student at the U. of Washington, acting as "interviewer," and asking me questions we thought the viewers might have asked if they could. Fun shows to do! Don Firth |

Whadya' do?..count the words, and couldn't answer the questions?? You're just ducking and weaving, avoiding a question that has you choking! GfS |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: Bobert Date: 14 Apr 13 - 07:31 AM Yeah, TIA, that's why I rarely click on blue clickies... Most are propaganda... Just because they are on the internet doesn't make them true... I find it humorous that folks put them in their arguments as if they alone are "ah hah, gotcha" moments... They prove absolutely nothing... BTW, one of them had me ask GfinS a direct question... You know... Less than 20 words that isn't surrounded with reams of mindless wandering... Still awaiting GfinS's answer... Nice site, Don... You have that James Taylor look to ya'... I'll listen to the songs later... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: GUEST,TIA Date: 14 Apr 13 - 02:46 AM It's an opinion piece dumbass. It says so right at the top. Look immediately to the left (hold your hands up and your thumb and index finger will make the letter L) of the title: it says "OP-ED" in all capitals. Do you really need instructions on how to read? Keeerist. |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: Don Firth Date: 13 Apr 13 - 11:55 PM And, Goofy, you don't state any clear questions to be answered. There is no substance to comment on, and you don't post any verifiable facts to rebut. You claim you asked a question in a previous post and try to make it look like someone is dodging it. We scroll up and check your posts and you have not asked anything that resembles a clear question. You not only try to pull that stunt with me, you do it to Bobert as well, along with anybody else who posts something you don't agree with. It's all a bluff on your part, and anyone with a brain can see it, as do quite a number of people on these threads. Don Firth |

You never: Answered them Commented on the substance Posted any verifiable facts to rebut anything I posted.

Subject: RE: BS: Obama's Budget From: GUEST,Guest from Sanity Date: 13 Apr 13 - 06:00 PM ...and all the while, the dopey dupes will be making excuses for him, and his 'butt-jett', and trying to sound like they know what their talking about. N.G.'s post is closer to the 'change' or the potential for it. Why do we need NDAA??? that suspends the rights of the 4th amendment?? To 'take care' of those who are complained about then suspending the 2nd amendment, as well....Oh well, with Obama care, they can just 'shut off' the elderly who used to considered wise....until this new batch came up and have proved otherwise, and used themselves as perfect examples!

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: Don Firth Date: 13 Apr 13 - 05:58 PM Goofballupagus, you're so busy inventing things that you want people on these threads to think I said that you're not actually reading what I AM saying. Plenty of nutrition there, but you're like the woman who was eating in a fine restaurant in Paris, ordered escargot, not knowing what it was, then sent the plate back to the kitchen complaining that there were snails in her food. I don't see anything in your posts beyond bleating and bluster. Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: GUEST,Guest from Sanity Date: 13 Apr 13 - 05:43 PM Oh, back to the same ol' name calling.....it has been said that the loser of the argument is the one who throws out the first name calling... This is what they do when they run out of notes on their talking points. They haven't even answered the first questions put to them! Don, come on, offer some meat in your posts....something other than baloney!..Next you'll be trying to sell us bottled 'organic' hot dog water! On the other (Lie) thread, it would seem to me that answering questions, that were air tight with facts, would work better than your tactic of name calling....or is that another one of your academic high points you learned from the kids at school??!! Next you'll be saying the economy is great, and anything differently said is a Republican rumor....WHILE MISSING THE WHOLE POINT!! But you don't mind...you get your monthly SSI check.......for now.

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: Don Firth Date: 13 Apr 13 - 02:29 PM Henry Bastard, just to repair what appears to be yet another hole in that vast wasteland inside your skull, the Secret Service in this country is nothing like the KGB or the Gestapo, and they are not affiliated with the CIA. The Secret Service is an agency which is charged with protecting the President from potential assassins and others who would attempt to do him harm. If you physically threaten the President in any way, or try to promote attempts to physically harm him, they will be on your case. ALL presidents are under the protection of the Secret Service.

Subject: RE: BS: Obama Hate Thread... From: GUEST,TIA Date: 13 Apr 13 - 12:21 PM They don't just hate al-Obama*. It is way larger than that. This author's argument seems to me to get it just right: "The angry white guys who dominate the Republican Party in Congress represent all the angry white men in America who cannot accept what they've lost forever – namely the exclusive right to take all the best jobs, run everything, make all the decisions, and, oh yes, keep everybody who doesn't look, act, and talk the way they do out of the good old boys club." http://www.nationofchange.org/angry-white-guys-roots-reactionary-america-1365861843 click *And doesn't the persistent use of this undeniably racist epithet just perfectly confirm the quote above? |

Subject: RE: BS: I don't hate President Obama. From: Songwronger Date: 12 Apr 13 - 11:42 PM A tip for Firth (stuck in 1917) - Stay off the Hindenburg. And no, Obama's no dictator. He just tells us he can kill any American citizen he wants because he's a kidder. The National Defense Authorization Act is just a big joke. He even joked to get it passed--said he would never sign the thing if it hit his desk, and then he SIGNED it! Now THAT was a belly laugh. The joke was on us. What a fun guy. Obama's just misunderstood. He's like one of those comedians like Andrew Dice Clay or Emo Phillips. It's a kind of humor that grows on you. |

Subject: BS: Obama's Budget From: Songwronger Date: 12 Apr 13 - 11:26 PM From the World Socialist Website: Obama's Budget 12 April 2013 The Obama administration's budget released on Wednesday is a historic milestone. The Democratic Party administration is taking direct aim at the two core federal social programs established in the United States in the 20th Century, Social Security and Medicare. The consequences of Obama's proposals are not hard to predict: millions more people, particularly the elderly, will be thrown into poverty or be cut off from life-preserving medical care. The corporate and financial elite that runs the United States has long complained of the "unreasonable" sums of money spent on preserving the health and well-being of the elderly. In the minds of the Wall Street speculators and corporate executives that control both political parties, broad sections of the population simply live too long. While the administration and the corporate media have sought to downplay the significance of the attack, the cuts proposed are a significant step in dismantling the programs altogether. The $400 billion in Medicare cuts, when combined with the $500 billion already included as part of the administration's health care overhaul, add up to 13 percent of total spending on the program over the next decade. As for Social Security, by modifying the way the government calculates inflation, the program will be cut by $130 billion. According to one analysis, for a worker retiring at the age of 65, this will amount to a loss of $650 a year in benefits by the time the worker reaches 75, and a loss of $1,130 by the time he reaches 85. About 70 percent of seniors depend on the already meager benefits for at least half of their income, with 40 percent depending on it to keep them above the poverty line. The administration's proposal, with a raft of other cuts in key social programs, is only the starting point for negotiations with Congressional Republicans, a process that will drive the whole discussion even further to the right. The dog and pony show of American politics will enter a new phase, as the two big business parties, united on all essentials, conspire to gut and eliminate programs that have the overwhelming support of the American population. |
