DungHoled, have you ever contributed a single bit of value to the forum?
Or are you desperate to avoid a value added tax.

I wonder why that pic was such a thorn for you. I can only assume that you think I am wearing some pompous ascot. When in fact it was a neck gaiter covering a cervical collar.

You have contributed nothing of value just bile bubbles.

Newt thinks he his a good catholic?

Dante's Satan is going to need another mouth Judas, Brutus, Cassius and finally Newt...

Remember the 9th ring of Hell if for treachery something Newt is very good at....


If you don't get the reference go read Dante's The Divine Comedy...

the sad truth of the matter is that the backers of the GOP know they will get more of what they want with obamas re election and the landslide of sellout compromises that his yellow streak goes for

than they ever would with one of there favorite racists in the white house


thats why their offering up no competition

Even when the Dow closed at the all time high of 14,000.41 on July 17, 2007, under George W Bush, that was still only a 32.23% increase from the 10,587.59 when Bush took office; which is worse than the current Dow performance under Obama at +37%, as of this posting.

How much of this is real though? Trillions of dollars of quantitative easing and stimulus can easily inflate the Notional value of the stock indices.

Did anyone post this? From MoveOn.org. (I know, I know.)

Before you watch the speech, get the facts:

• Since the last SOTU, the economy has created 1.9 million private sector jobs.

• The top 1 percent take home 24 percent of the nation’s income, up from about 9 percent in 1976.

• Private sector job creation under Obama in 2011 was larger than seven out of the eight years Bush was president.

• The top 1 percent of Americans own 40 percent of our country’s wealth while the bottom 80 percent owns only 7 percent.

• Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, 2.5 million young adults gained health insurance.

• For every one job opening, there are four people looking for work.

• Last year, China spent 9 percent of its GDP on infrastructure. The U.S. spent 2.5 percent.

• 2.65 million seniors saved an average of $569 on prescriptions last year thanks to the Affordable Care Act.

• “In 2011, the United States killed Al Qaeda’s most effective propagandist, Anwar al-Awlaki; its operating chief, Atiyah Abd al-Rahman; and of course its founder, chief executive and spiritual leader, Osama bin Laden.”

• Union membership is at a 70-year low.

• Unemployment benefits have lifted 3.2 million people out of poverty.

• The United States used to have the world’s largest percentage of college graduates. We’re now #14.

• One quarter of all contributions to federal campaigns come from 0.01 percent of Americans.

• 47.8 percent of households that receive food stamps are working, because having a job is not enough to keep them out of poverty.

• In the last three years, 30 major corporations spent more on lobbying than they paid in taxes.

• 50 percent of U.S. workers make less than $26,364 per year.

• More than one in 70 homes faced foreclosure last year.

• Since 1985, the federal tax rate for the 400 wealthiest Americans dropped from 29 percent to 18 percent.
