I didn't vote for Obama and was worried he'd be too liberal. And he's a democrat/republican so you know there's a lot of lies, deceipt, and taking care of special interest that goes along with being part of those two parties.
But as a whole I have been very impressed with what he has done so far. He is not the left wing socialist boogey man the right wingers want so desperately to believe he is to reinforce their skewed views. But hey you believe what you want to believe to make yourself feel justified, no matter how far away from reality it may be.
The funny thing is the economy will continue on it's cycle and we'll be in recovery and Obama will get re-elected. Then the people that had defended Bush for 8 years can continue to get all freaked out by the BS right wing drivel they watch and listen to on Fox news and talk radio. It's sad really that these right wing pundits are getting wealthy playing to their audiences fears, predjudices, and delusions. But as it was said: there's a sucker born every minute.

OK LEB, let's not "LEB-ize" this thread, shall we?
Timid top-rope, thank you for the concise point on the gdp benefits of the incredibly short sighted "tax-cut" versus investing in our country. That Harper's index...sometimes blows my mind.

...however, WE don't share your passion of being politically clueless and verbally effluent about it.
Let me break it on down for you.
We are trying to have a conversation. You be ubiquitous obfuscator. Me be frustrated at obtuse you. Me not alone.

You are all right, lets boycott this thread and silence it. It is not up to discussion.
Everyone delete your posts and let the thread die. I will not allow people to read things that probably are not true, I think.

I'm watching mixed martial arts, sorting climbing gear from the weekend, trying to put off my bible study homework and posting on supertopo. I am a man without a country...

Man, a guy leaves for two days, and a(nother) Just Pukin' Trash thread grows to 200 posts? What is it with you guys? Who is worse- the troll, or the ones who take the hook?
As much derision as many of you (supposedly) hold for jpt, every time he posts another stupid *ss thread he sits back with a smug Repug smile on his Limbaugh-like face while everybody takes the bait.
Why do you do it?

excuse me.
the 'latest' poll rallied back in november when the liberal ideals absolutely crushed the republican ticket.
a nation then began its healing process. of course cuts as deep as those inflicted by g.w. will bear scabs.
you whimpering folks are simply the scabs on the wounds.
as the fruit of Obama's actions begin to flourish, the scabs will fall off.

"because it's fun watching all you libs get all self-righteous even as you respond"
I'll give you that, bookworm- not sure if that is true about Dems in general, but it seems to be very true here on ST. Some Repug/Conservative posts something inflammatory, and the Dems/Libs react. Kind of like a jack-in-the-box.
It sure would be nice to see either side post thought-provoking ideas or directions and see a thoughtful, articulate discussion ensue. Mostly, it tends to be the same, tired talking points shot back and forth with a bazooka. Even for a political junkie like me, it gets pretty circular and tiresome.

i agree, the W/repub spending spree was stupid (minus defense spending), but doubling/tripling down on stupid is even more stupid
